I don't know much about the merit system and I am not keen on learning more about it.. maybe I could be wrong here, but last I checked I couldn't remove the merits I granted. Lol, then who's jumping to conclusion, me or you?  Also, being here since 2013 would mean you are familiarized with the merit system already... Besides, if you would have read my previous post, you would understand more: Actually, it just says it can not be undone, not that merits can't be taken away. And that "undone" means that if you merit someone, then you can not demerit that user (i.e., like removing a Fb "Like"). However, theymos can remove merits if he feels it's needed. For example, I remember that once a user asked himself to have his merits deleted. I don't know why he wanted that. And theymos listened to his request.
This doesn't mean the system can be abused, nor that it is abused. Only 1 person (theymos) or 2 (theymos and Cyrus) can delete merits. This happens only in very rare occasions though. Bug seems likely, or confusion on OP's part due to change in merits received in last 30-120 days as others pointed out. I also said that... Let's say the post wasn't deserving of merits, how would it lose merit? Like there's no mechanism to take it back. Unless theymos intervened but I don't take him as the kind of person to meddle in and remove merits. Well, you just answered yourself: only theymos (forum's Supreme Leader) or maybe Cyrus too (Global Administrator) can intervene. |

Latest edit (March 13th, 2021): icopress had been added to the adulators and wannabees of Foxpup Merit Cycling Club. 1. Foxpup Merit Cycling Club
[...]
Known members and adulators (wannabees): LoyceV, suchmoon, o_e_l_e_o, marlboroza, fillippone, bitmover, tranthidung, JollyGood, examplens, GazetaBitcoin, icopress. icopress showed in many occasions his loyalty to this gang and his obedience toward the Supreme Leader ( [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). However, as time passed and this brave padawan ventured forward into the wild territories of the forum, he realized that a helmet is not enough protection. Therefore, after an occult make-out ritual with the Supreme Leader, he asked for shelter from the smallest, yet strongest and sexiest gang of the forum! What do you choose - family or famiglia? Time has come for icopress to choose famiglia! |

Gazeta
Theymos or Cyrus will only act once there will be a massive amount of merit is exchanged. I don't think for 1 or 2 merits, admin will interfere and remove. This is true. That's why I said it happens only in rare occasions... And anyway it was not OP's case This doesn't mean the system can be abused, nor that it is abused. Only 1 person (theymos) or 2 (theymos and Cyrus) can delete merits. This happens only in very rare occasions though. I can't remember where I saw theymos was talking about this. Without blatant case, such interfere is unlikely to happen.
A certain case when it happened was last year, when someone asked to have all merits removed: hallo ,
excuse me for disturbing, how to do it, so that my merits no longer exist, or delete my merits please. but I just want to keep my pseudonym/alias .
thank you, no debate just action. Don't ask me why he wanted such thing But his wish was fulfilled. I see though he received merits later and that's ironic.
They are asking why it was removed.. not whether they deserve it or not. Stop jumping to conclusions people.. and being so patronizing to those asking questions. And I answered to the question. I wasn't patronizing. If a merit was deleted (although it wasn't), why would that happen? Maybe because of a bug, because the user asked himself (as in the above mentioned case) or... maybe the post did not deserve the merit. Can you see other reasons...? |

But on the page where you give the merit, it says that it can't be taken away or undone, I am pretty confused because that means that anyone can be a target of this in a way or that it can be abused. I never thought that that is a possibility. Actually, it just says it can not be undone, not that merits can't be taken away. And that "undone" means that if you merit someone, then you can not demerit that user (i.e., like removing a Fb "Like"). However, theymos can remove merits if he feels it's needed. For example, I remember that once a user asked himself to have his merits deleted. I don't know why he wanted that. And theymos listened to his request. This doesn't mean the system can be abused, nor that it is abused. Only 1 person (theymos) or 2 (theymos and Cyrus) can delete merits. This happens only in very rare occasions though. |

Why can merit decrease ? Why not?! and who can take away? theymos. Maybe Cyrus too. Actually, most likely, Cyrus too. Someone took one from me. Maybe you actually did not deserve it... ever thought about that? I really don’t think this can happen - are you sure ? Yes, this can happen. And it happened on several occasions... |

I tried to bribe Foxpup to get into the club not to disclose to the public that picture, but I failed. Now the picture is bilico and I am not into the club. Where I took that picture is another subject. I just wanted to write that but I did not want to ruin your hopes for being accepted in the foxhole. But it's good that you are a rational person though and you realize that for publishing that kind of pics you are banned! Banned!!! I and o_e_l_e_o were giving our wives as gift or even young veals and you... disclose that? That's blackmail, not bribe lol =))) It's not the main problem that you are a merit rascal but showing such pics Being merit rascal is also a problem, as we are not merit rascals, but we cycle them; however that pic is way bigger problem than the lack of cycling P.S.: I just noticed that our Leader has such charm that only mentioning her, somehow, switched this topic, which was about Lauda, to having Foxpup in the center |
|
|

Fillippone how dare you! :p Our Leader has never looked like that and never been is that situation! She hot as as hell a jailbait, look at her! (Not to mention all the other pics ) Now for the sake of the confusion discussion, please detail how that picture came up! Who took it? And in what circumstance?! |
|
|
|
I said stop speculating, dammit! Why...? Oo I certainly didn't get Lauda pregnant or vice versa. Why not?? Besides, this discussion about pregnancy brings up some memories... Btw I see you recovered your best shape after your pregnancy You're confusing me with someone else. I've never been pregnant, despite everything that's gone on in the foxhole; I always use protection This confuses me. Why did fillippone thought that back then?!  It's not even biologically possible! Probably. Hopefully... I am not sure unless I see with my own eyes How dare you. I've never seen nutildah not being 100% serious. He's the most serious user after Foxpup, who is 101% serious I always knew that our Supreme Leader is a role model of seriousness. I consider myself also a model of seriousness but I had to admit she is way more serious than me. Apparently I did not appreciate nutildah at his real level of seriousness and I apologize for this |

If you are referring to Git, I think that with a little patience we'll overcome that too. Uhm... not patience is what I fear the most, but I hope I'm just paranoic now... It's something else I fear, but as a caution I won't mention this public until everything is solved... There is something that may go wrong during this pull request procedure, for not ordinary reasons to say so... but let's hope it's just in my head. Disclosing this fear in public may actually trigger what I fear so I'll keep it inside me until we finish everything... You literally just make a new branch from "master" or "main", go to the Pull Requests section of the repo you're trying to merge and make a new request, select your branch & fork (you may have to make forks visible), and follow Bitcoin developer's guidelines for making a pull request name and description, and developers handle the rest for you. Thank you for the guideline, NotATether. Let's hope things will be that simple... I don't think bitcoin whitepaper is a bible Actually, it is. And not just "a bible", but " The Bible". Bitcoin's Bible! |

I am coming back on this thread to announce that I never forgot about my earlier promise. I worked a lot for the new translation, which I made from scratch. It took a long while because I wanted it to be flawless or as close as possible to perfection. This takes times. A lot. I also want to thank to NeuroticFish for his tremendous help in realizing the new document. His input was crucial for having a very good new translation and he also helped with adapting the diagrams in Romanian and with proof reading. As we are speaking, the translation is done. It just needs one more final and thorough check before going to the next step: the attempt to change the actual one with the new one. And I am afraid that this operation may be even more difficult than all the efforts invested so far. I hope I'm wrong about this though... We'll see how things work. However, the most important part is that the longest work is finished. But maybe the hardest part is ahead. I'll keep you all posted about how things develop. I also take this occasion to thank to all which encouraged me to realize the new translation. Your words were really a great incentive for me to do this! |

dumb trolling Evidently, you do not actually know any actual real-life women. Lool nullius!!! That sentence would deserve itself a 50 merits bomb, but if I'd do it I'd be accused of merit abuse =))) I almost spilled my coffee when I read that! If "Lauda" is indeed "theymos" then "theymos" is guilty of plagerism (and by extension ban evasion). You misspelled “plagiarism”. I was about to say that too. Timelord, the "grammar nazi", the one always correcting others, spelled "plagerism"... That's ironic, isn't it? Stop making up defamatory FUD. Seriously... what did you expect from the old, imbecile, mentally disturbed troll...? Did you expect anything else...? Did anyone expect anything else? |

I think OP noticed this curious statement of nutildah: I'm not sure what I can do to top that. We'll see what my "theymos is actually lauda" investigation brings forward.
Which, to be honest, intrigued me too. I thought there was a topic started by nutildah on this matter, but I didn't see any. I was not sure if the post was made for the lulz or if it was serious. And now I actually found a topic, but it isn't nutildah's In any case, I think that only nutildah can bring some more light about this investigation (which I tend to believe it is for fun purposes anyway). |

Seriously though I don't really have a good tl;dr, since I'm not entirely sure what's going on. Ratimov seems to have a lot of "enemies", including korner's farm and a bunch of other assholes who doxed him and that's disgusting. Huh, wait... WHAT? Oo Who doxxed him? And where? I may have been a bit busy last days and didn't see all that happened around, but I thought I got myself up to date, Ratimov's exclusion from millionaires' billionaires' gang being the latest news. Then I see this. Did something like this really happened? If so, that's disgusting indeed... I knew he had many enemies, but I did not ever think it could end up in anything like this. OK, may him be a plagiarist or not; may him be a DT1 with good use of the system or not; may him be... whatever else... but why doxx him though...? I looked in the Investigation board, which is the only board where revealing personal information is permitted, but I did not see any topic about him... Therefore I believe the doxxing took course on a prohibited area of the forum, which is even worse, as anyone can see it... I did not interact with him too much, but I never saw him offering personal information, so this is a wonder for me... how it could happen. And, most important, why... You may not like someone, but why harm him that way...? |

Salut Kosmin, bine ai revenit pe forum!
Referitor la topic-ul tau, acesta apartine de sectiunea Market, nu de sectiunea generala romaneasca. Pentru a-l muta in sectiunea corecta ai la dispozitie un buton in coltul stanga-jos al paginii, numit "move topic". Efectueaza click pe el, apoi selecteaza sectiunea corespunzatoare.
Nu este mare problema, insa fiecare sectiune are rostul ei. La "Presa", de pilda, apartin articolele legate de presa. In sectiunea generala (cea "mare") apartin toate topic-urile care nu se pot incadra la subsectiunile aferente.

Na, aia cu masa Pamantului a fost un exemplu. Din cate vad DuracellDeMonaco se asteapta sa avem intercity si poate ca nu se opreste in toate statiile noastre ponosite. Uhm... cu riscul ( speranta? ) de a transforma acest topic intr-un nou Wall Observer, de cand am aflat despre Bitcoin am inteles principiul de functionare al Bitcoin, precum si ideologia crypto-anarhica si libertariana pe baza caruia a fost creat, mereu am fost de parerea lui Satoshi. Mai precis: "in timp (Bitcoin) fie va ajunge sa aiba o valoare foarte mare sau nu va avea nicio valoare". Din pacate, desi am cautat acest citat vreme de aproape o ora, nu am reusit sa-l gasesc. Am gasit altul insa, similar: "In this sense, it's more typical of a precious metal. Instead of the supply changing to keep the value the same, the supply is predetermined and the value changes. As the number of users grows, the value per coin increases. It has the potential for a positive feedback loop; as users increase, the value goes up, which could attract more users to take advantage of the increasing value." Dat fiind ca pana acum nu a tins spre o valoare 0 -- ci, din contra, a crescut constant in timp, in jos nu vad ca ar mai lua-o. In sensul ca nu spre 0. Fluctuatii vor mai exista, evident. Si dat fiind ca avem o cantitate finita, care poate doar sa scada in timp si deci sa devina si mai greu de procurat, valoarea nu are cum sa se duca decat in sus. Pana unde...? Asta este greu de estimat. Insa eu unul sunt ferm convins ca o valoare chiar si de 500.000$ sau 1.000.000$ pentru o unitate nu ar fi ceva imposibil. Referitor la 66.600$, la un moment dat, in timp ce creste, va atinge si aceasta valoare, cu siguranta. Cum va atinge si valoarea de 58.000$, 58.001, 58.002$, 58.003$, [...] 66.599$ si tot asa. Referitor insa la partea cu speculatiile - ca va ajunge la acea valoare in 6 saptamani... ca de acolo o va lua in jos apoi va sari la 100.000$... e limpede ca lumina zilei ca asemenea afirmatii nu au niciun fundament, intrucat nimeni nu poate prevedea viitorul Dar oricine isi poate exprima dorintele... opiniile... |

Tranzactia este in prima postare. Au platit 77.6 sat/vByte, in total 0.00025764 BTC. Omul chiar a zis asta si in BTC, nu doar in lei. Si chiar este pe la 50 RON...
Ideea ca ar trebui sa fi stiut si ei ca e week-end si pot sa puna chiar si un sfert din fee-ul ala. Adica eu nu am afacere in bransa si tot stiu atata lucru. Sau sa intrebe clientul... (explicandu-i avantajele si dezavantajele) Eu intelesesem ca dupa ce a sunat la ei si i-au trimis tranzactia manual l-au taxat cu 50 RON... si ca la aparat avea posibilitatea de a alege ce comision sa plateasca. Faza e ca... daca e asa, atunci cred ca firma oricum a incercat sa fie acoperita... In sensul ca: daca utilizatorul alege un comision mai mic la aparat, inseamna ca isi asuma sa nu primeasca banii repede (si e alegerea lui); in schimb, trimitand tranzactia manual, ei au ales sa o faca cu comision maxim pentru a nu se trezi cu plangeri in caz ca ar fi fost intarziata... Intr-adevar, puteau sa-i spuna si la telefon ca i se pot trimite banii cu comision mic, mediu sau mare... Dar aici a intervenit factorul uman. Caruia ori nu i-a pasat, ori a uitat, ori a considerat sa trimita cu comision maxim pentru a nu se trezi cu reclamatii in cazul intarzierii tranzactiei. Una peste alta, intr-adevar, lasa de dorit... insa anumite parti din ce s-a intamplat le inteleg totusi. Si banii nu i-au fost furati per se, ca nu au intrat in buzunarul operatorului sau a firmei, dar o mare parte puteau sa ajunga la client... Da, nu a fost furat niciun ban. In schimb au incasat minerii un pic mai mult... Si acum clar va incerca si oferta concurentei. Cel putin eu asa as face.  Si eu la fel. Am patit-o si eu o data la Bitcoin Romania - mi-a blocat ATM-ul banii la eliberare. Unele aparate au fanta foarte ingusta sau foarte sensibila. Cand s-a intamplat asta, aparatul a emis un tichet de eroare. L-am prezentat operatorilor de acolo si in ~20 minute a venit cineva care a deblocat banii din ATM si mi i-a predat. Au fost foarte OK, nimic de reprosat. |

I refuse to publish these animations euphemisms in case someone else's alt wife is viewing this thread][/sub]  Please publish them all. Any gang wannabee must know what implies if he'll ever be accepted; also, any gang wannabee's wife must also know what means for her if the respective wannabee will ever be accepted Curiously, seen from the perspective of an outsider, sacrifices look very harsh. The good news is that once you do it first time, it becomes a pleasure But of course, this is just a part of living in the foxhole. Don't forget also about the orgies, tanks of beer, 30 years old whisky, absinthe, ouzo, plus various substances or the 55-gallon drum of WD-40. And the list goes on |

I will avoid stretching it but it almost sounds like people are going to scam anyway so let's make some money by supporting them, doesn't it?
[...]
If scammers use Monero and get away then we have to look towards it, but that does not mean we should start supporting scammers by promoting services that facilitate them, because they will eventually find a way.
Actually no, it's not like that. People should have the chance to slam the door in the face of anyone invading their privacy or trying to sneak in their private lives. It's the purpose of the entire work of Cypherpunks. Bitcoin follows their vision. If a law enforcing agency is surveilling the citizens, it's legal, right? But if you sneak in on your neighbour's private life is illegal right? Wrong. Actually yes, if an agency does it then it is legal and if a person does it then it becomes illegal, but in both cases it means invading someone's privacy and this is unacceptable. Mixers help honest people preserve their privacy. Criminals will always find a way, no matter if with mixer's help or not. They do that for ages. Simple people, which have or not anything to hide, but nothing illegal, use mixers for their privacy. For not allowing intruders in their lives. For being able to slam the door in the face of any intruder. |

- It seems to me, or is someone trying to bribe the leader of the gang?  I don't take bribes, unless "bribe" is a euphemism for something even more unbecoming, in which case... no comment.  Our Supreme Leader does not take bribes! Once, o_e_l_e_o offered his wife as bribe, then I doubled down by also offering mine plus I added a young veal on the table. Nothing! It doesn't matter that after we were accepted in the gang wife swapping became an usual routine (plus many others)... What matters is that before we were in, we could in no way bribe our incorruptible Leader if you're no longer a Vixen, you get the other picture Is this possible? To not be a Vixen anymore? Oo Btw: great job LoyceV for renewing the site! |

Lol, ty In afara de puiul de vulpe nu cred ca altcineva are ce-i necesar pentru a face saltul inapoi in timp  Intr-o vreme a mai incercat si Loyce, din pacate insa fara succes. Si a mai existat un utilizator, care la randul sau nu era sigur daca tocmai inventase o masina a timpului. Pana una alta, intr-adevar, Seful Sefa mea este singura care a confirmat ca poate sa se teleporteze in timp (cred ca e sefa totusi, tinand cont de dezvaluirile de la ultima petrecere orgie la care am participat (***Warning*** Link-ul ar putea fi, sau nu, NSFW, dar conform regulilor forumului trebuie sa semnalizez posibilitatea de a fi interpretat ca NSFW); dar nu numai acelea). Si da, asa pare sa fie. In afara puiului de vulpe nu a mai putut confirma nimeni. Tentative au fost, insa reusite nu Cred ca omul zice - pe stil Nostradamus - ca predictia mea nu este buna si urmatoarea ar fi $66.6k Sacré bleu! Sa nu fie oare urmatoarea statie 1/10^20 din masa Pamantului? =))) N-are cum! Daca nu vrea sa te creada, greseala lui. Eu ma duc acum sa pun un bilet la pariuri ca la valoarea aia va ajunge |
