Still, I am not clear if you are only the part of account recovery team only. I guess , we saw you moving threads also.

I will also like to quote one of the edited image by 3doom.


"Whitelist" and "Nuke" are also not the perks of Copper Membership

After reading scammer reply I got the feeling that scamming other is now addiction to them.  It does not matter to scammer what is their financial status. Look like they enjoy their con jobs.

I am more interested in knowing what causes the users to trust these scammers.

I read lot of story of users got scammed. Despite several warning and negative feedback to scammer ,still user got scammed.

I like to know what assumption/stupidity did you did, that  get you  scammed.

For ex below are the assumption:
1. Nobody is here to scam.
2. User must be speaking truth so I should believe him.

For ex below are the stupidity:
1. I can send first to a newbie without escrow.


Sometimes there is complexity.

1. User urged it is very limited time deal (like an hour) so you are not able check facts/use escrow and get duped.


So how you get duped? I will like to learn reasons from you.

Excluded from trustlist does not mean that you are banned from using the forum. As long you are forum user you can request for the feature that you find useful for yourself and forum.

It is for theymos to decide whether he find the feature use for forum members and able to implement it.


Very bad choice,TMAN will be able to pay that penalty but most of forum user will not able to do it. (In the end, TMAN need this feature, so no use for TMAN.)



+1, sometime I accidentally press ignore.

I think your suggestion is coming out of from your frustration that you are not able to rank due to merit system (when you are potential legendary on activity count assuming everyone having activity greater than 730 is potential legendary.)

It is not that tough to rank up, just read the lot of good topic started in B&H board. You can find a topic that is not discussed enough, do the good research on it and present here. You will definitely get some merits.

OP There ain't no such thing as  free lunch and you are asking for free lunch.

Thanks for clearing about the status of these newbies.


Best of luck Cyrus for your new endeavour.

So in reality it was your team that was working for account recovery when we thought theymos is doing it manually 

I do not trust  somebody having positive trust unless I have not dealt with that seller. Positive trust just give an assurance but it should not be the reason for anybody to lower his/her guard.

Do not compare with "ebay" type sites  because they are virtually acting as "escrow" between you and seller and this is not true in this forum if you are not explicitly taking the escrow services.

Appoint the local moderators on priority that will definitely weed out the rubbish and appoint some merit sources in local board that will encourage the user to post some interesting and discussion worthy post.

From very start , I am telling OP that Moderator deleted his post not the thread creator and thread creator also clarified it here.

The post that was deleted have "tid" and "pid" thing and it look like referral link. (though in the end , we find that site refer it as thread id and post id.)

Though no moderator clarified it here but I suspect it is deleted on suspicion of referral spam only. (Why the moderator of this forum will be knowing such a peculiar terminology of that site?)

I guess primary purpose of giving negative for account sales is to make negative that previous + overall stay. Otherwise , how it make sense to red trust the account that is not engaging in any kind of trade activity.


Actually , no one should trust any online identity. so it will not matter if that identity "X" changes to "Y".
(By not trusting , I mean you should be neutral, it does not mean distrust. )

If it is about bitcoin then you can ask for the signed message from the wallet and verify the balance in block explorer.  Images can be doctored easily so they should not be taken as solid proof.

Additional tip to keep your password safe:

Be aware of your surroundings. When you are entering your password , make sure you are not getting Shoulder surfed.

Did you sent PM to theymos or hilariousandco for your case?
I hope you should get the chance.

Tournaments are still going on and there is chance of winning some steem.

Looking at the stats shared by LoyceV it does not look to me that they are Merit Sources (if they are, then not at all active). Amount of Merits sent by Dabs is not even justifying the initial airdropped smerits.

PS: Thanks LoyceV for pulling out mine data.

My best guess is mprep  (but will be surprised if Jet Cash name pop up, quoting him against his no -quote wish).
I think I am quoting LoyceV  too or no idea if it comes out CH.

I will request mine for received and spent.

Is it their any  public interface for doing it yourself instead of requesting?

Sometimes it happens people let their guard down and they got scammed. User can use the escrow but escrow does not come free.
Even you are fooled to use fake escrows.
You can keep your point and it does not matter that what do you think of scammed guy but you want to use "DT tag" against a scammed person.  You were not only rude there but shown your mental fickleness.

Education is a tool for success and in most cases lack of education is responsible for lack of development.

Lack of education causes you to choose corrupt politicians, not recognizing your rights , blaming yourself or somebody else and  depression.

Few things are not in individual hands but we can try what we can do.

This is your assumption. We "like to earn" does make any compulsion to earn and "somehow" is sounding like that you are not caring about the right way or wrong way.


Did your country give license to drive in road even if they do not know "how to drive" right now, it is fine. They will eventually learn after doing couple of accidents, might be killing some people in learning.  Ohh! we should respect their way of learning "how to drive".
