coinurl.com is not on the same server as opfab.

there was a power outage in the switzerland datacenter where opfab is.  we might just move it to a different server if they keep that up.

TERRIBLY sorry about the server slowness.  I have upgraded coinurl.com's server to over double the memory (now 32GB) and the hard drive was a 2TB now it's a 120GB SSD so it should be MUCH faster for the database.  new server should be live tonight, I got it mostly set up yesterday.  tried for days to tune our 16GB server but there are just too many requests for it to handle.

I am working with someone who will do a rewrite of the coinurl.com banner distribution code so we can handle 1000x more requests, I guess when the orig owner set it up he hadn't had resources in mind.



Thanks for the explanation. 

CoinURL got it's server upgraded! Yay!

The 32GB in the server is amazing, so much headroom, and the SSD just made a world of difference.

Since the server writes to the database constantly, there were tons of tiny little writes coming in every second of every day, and the spinning disk could not keep up.  The SSD can handle very well with random reads and writes, so I think we can expect great performance for a long time! 

Yes, all these sites are a lot faster today.  Thanks.

re: EasyBitco.in


Yes I never got paid and can't log in to my account. (and can't retrieve my password either, email is not found in database)
I never reached the payout limit though, so I never had a change to attempt a payout.

The site only had 2 registers members for many days after the site got back up. Seems like many new members registered in the last few days, or maybe that number counter isn't accurate at all.

Yes, one does need to register again.  And it was displaying those 2 registered users for a long time, even before anyone else could register a new account... probably for testing the new site.  Will keep an eye on it to see if it pays out what it should going forward.

You should have seen what they were saying last year. Even though they get it wrong often, the press bitcoin is receiving now is the most positive it has ever been. I think they just want the most titillating story. It is hard to beat "secret hacker drug money".

Would have to agree with this guy.  Instead of seeing dozens of negative articles and one or two positive articles like we did the past two years, we're seeing dozens of positive articles and one or two negative articles.  It's a very big change in attitude compared to the past.  I would say a more accurate thread title might be "Mainstream media mostly done with attacking Bitcoin".

+1

Easybitco.in is a scam site !!
The owners made the site go offline about week before payout day, because they were "fixing bugs".
Than re-opened it after payout day and I see by looking at the number of registered accounts at the bottom that the site has now only 2 registered members, meaning they deleted ALL the old accounts without paying out earnings.


Hmm...   Thanks for this information.   

Were you one of those members? Did you not get paid what you were owed?  Can anyone else confirm this?

I am pretty sure I got paid everything they owed me. Maybe I got lucky by withdrawing before the site redesign? 

Btw, they currently have:
94 Registered Members
8 New Members Today

Bitvisitor's payments seem to be delayed again today. ( They usually payout right away ) Will watch to see if they show up within 24hrs.
3210  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Free Bitcoin Sites *and* Free Newbie Lotto on: March 13, 2013, 10:39:04 PM

The EasyBitco.in site is back.  

( If you were a member before you will probably have to register again with this site relaunch. )

I just noticed that CharityAd icon in the location field of the browser, that shows up for 'some' sites.  Click on it and it displays the text "Ads Counter" with a number under it.  I take it that number is the number of ads that have been replaced with CharityAds in that particular browser?
Indeed. More precisely, it is the number of ads the plugin tries to replace.

I just noticed it because a lot of the sites I frequent don't have ads on them... and I was wondering if I was getting credit and eligible for the weekly draws.  
Your id was eligible on previous draw and on this one too (same rule to select people for the 2 draws).

We do not want people to install the plugin and surf only on a small number of pages and re-activating adblock some minutes later for example.
This would penalize honest people by giving them less luck in the draw.

If you have some idea on how to set the "limit" in a fair way, I'm open to any suggestion.

I am not using any adblocker in the browser I have that plugin installed on.  I just surf on a small number of sites and most of those have no ads... for example that icon doesn't show up when I am at twitter.com, google+, or on any of the exchanges I use.

Thanks for the info.

Nice picture but that is not how a star surrounded by a Dyson sphere would look. You would not be able to see it.


All the best Dyson spheres are transparent.  I suppose you are still using those old Bradbury X9000 models?    Lame!         Wink

Having a 1 in 500 chance of winning every day for six months, or so, and with a mix of more recent newbs than members who are
moving on to become established on the forum, is probably not a bad balance.  What does everybody think?    Smiley

I like the 1 in 500 chance of winning every day for six months, I might start now with
14TQui9p8vapTnREiftofENvc3BgHGQUkG

It means I have 365/2/500 chance of getting how much ?

It varies.  Go through the list of sites and see how much you get each day.  Not much, but something to get you started learning about how to receive and send BTC.

What good is it if one only gets very very small amounts?

I have found one site, http://bcgenerator.com
Can someone tell me is this legit? I'm looking for some free bitcoins because I'm new in this 'subject' and still searching for something working.

"It's take me about 2-3 minutes to get my 2 Bitcoins."

Obviously a scam.  Is this your site?  Pretending to be someone asking something like "Can someone tell me is this legit?" is a common scammer technique to get people checking out their site.

A lot of these free bitcoin sites are slowed down recently by "connecting to www.operationfabulous.com" ...

And coinurl.com. I went from having 20+ clicks/day to 1 click/day in coinurl.com banners.
My site is completly loaded and the anners sometimes take 20-30 seconds to load.

Yup, I notice that often as well... "waiting for coinurl.com..."
