I do not think it is right some members can upload the avatar and other no just because they have not done before.
Avatars are currently locked for everyone, so nobody can delete or upload a new one. In my profile I read the same as you: "Changing avatars is currently not possible." |

Next activity period will start tomorrow, for everyone. In exactly 49731 seconds starting from now.  How did you get the date? I can't wait! I'll be a sr member! Theymos wrote this some months ago: This is period #1135. Period #1136 will start in about 11 hours, when the unix time 1374560000 % 1210000 == 0.
And congrats for your Sr. status!  |

Was considering signing in again but then saw this change to 0.0001  but now you are going to Sr Member and hope you have high rate then why are not signing again I probably will, as sr member rates are v good, but last month before the change full members were paid 0.0002, now it's only half of that, don't know how long it will take before I go up a level, I've been sitting on current activity for a few weeks now  why your activity stuck because its works automatically for all and moves after every 14 days is there any problem what happen to you Nothing really happened just feel like it's been 2 weeks since my last activity update. Would be nice to know how the forum calculates it. If the starting point is the registration date, then my points should be added on the 30th of every month, but that didn't happen. (I'm quite sure my points are exactly the same for over a week). It's not much of a problem I can wait a bit more. As I got it, the day activity increases doesn't depend on your registration date. As said before, it increases automatically for all at the same time...  It's not. Just wait for the activity to update and then you'll be able to work it out. Next activity period will start tomorrow, for everyone. In exactly 49731 seconds starting from now. |

If you're going to ask this question, you might as well propose it in a form which is worth discussing:
"If you could accept 1 BTC or 1 oz of gold - but you can't sell or do anything with it for 5 years - which would you take?"
If (and only if) the question is proposed in these terms, I could prefer 1 BTC, even if now it worth less than 1/2 oz of gold. It's just about its potential: I think it is improbable that 1 oz of gold could change someone's life in 5 years, while there are at least some chance that BTC will (edit: continue to) raise its value in an exponential way. |

Payment received, thank you! Waiting for the payment :3
One week, Senior member and made a few posts(~15).
Evilpanda has updated the payments status by editing his previous post. It seems you were paid, maybe you should check it now. List of payments:

I will mantain your code in my signature to complete this week you already paid and probably I'm also going to mantain it for some days extra because I liked your service. The offer is still available for all who can put color text link sized to 16pt in the signature. By the new forum rules some people can't. It is not our fault.
Why can you not adjust the auto payout script? I would kindly ask that too. As you can see in my signature, the limitation for Full Members implies a smaller size but the overall layout seems good to me and maybe it could be compensated by the fact it costs less to you (lower activity). Anyway, thank you for your trustworthy service. |

anybody here know about bitcoin prediction for 1-2 years later?
I'm pretty sure that the answer to your question is here, in the speculation forum, hidden in one or more posts. We have only to find it. |

Bitcoin is not a safe an investment. anymore.
FTFY. FTFY. Yep, you fixed that better. |

With new rules, only Hero and Senior members still have "Signature: found" and "Status: Active".
It's invalid for the others.
OP should kindly address this ASAP and give us a new valid code for signature.

The problem is (are) not of course your concise and clear message(s) but the overproductive spammers posts. What do you propose to get rid of those and validate yours? How do you propose to solve the problems bellow? Could (realistically) mods, advertisers, users have a role? But the first question is: Do you think there is a problem? So the main problems created by ads in signatures are:
- a difficulty of properly following threads because of a great number of posts (short and/or not connected with the thread itself) submitted with the sole purpose of making an easy coin
- a negative impression because of ads written in BIG, bold, coloured fonts
Yes, I think the problem is here and could get worse with time. The invasive signatures aren't a real problem, as well explained by Salty in the post above, but the spam is. And I am afraid that the only viable way to prevent "mimetic" spam is to forbid pay-per-post advertising. I like very, very much this proposal from you: 4. Involving users in reporting spam. The incentive for them could be
- an improved activity formula (for example adding a number proportional with valid spam posts reported). I know it's not pleasant tu use the reporting system (that's why i usually avoid it) but the trash has to be dealt with otherwise the place becomes to smelly
- a better trust level, etc.
A +1 activity for every 1 (or more) valid reported post would be an HUGE incentive for many users. Of course there must be also a penalty for wrong submission; can you imagine the SPAM of SPAM reporting(*)? What do you mods, staff and admins think about this proposal? (*) -> SPAM! |

As some mods have said, I also think that pay-per-post method in signature advertising will end in spam proliferation. If not spam, surely there will be a lower average of quality posts. On the other side, some other methods of revenue seem viable to me, like pay-per-activity for example. That might seem ironic since I have an ad in my sig. But yeh I have been looking in these ad sig topics and all had "weekly posting requirements", for me that just seems wrong so I never joined that. This current ad didn't have any posting requirements (for full members) so I thought it's ok. It's and easy BTC0.02 - $12 in a week without any effort, so yeh sorry guys  I agree with you. The other one adv I am using, pays weekly a small amount multiplied with your activity number. Without minimum posts requirement, it seems quite fair to me and, most important, sustainable for the forum. The most obvious solution to this is not to count posts of less than 50 words towards post count. (19 words)
Problem solved. People can still make short, one word posts - they just won't contribute to post count. More importantly, the required '50 posts' that people need to make won't happen nearly as quickly, as short posts won't bump the number. (40 words)
Barring that, penalize the advertisers. If an advertiser is generating enough income from posts here, then they can do a better job of checking people using their signatures. (28 words)
(87 words in total)
In the case that pay-per-post will remain allowed, I think your idea is simply wrong. Please let me quote myself, just as one of many and better examples (edit: from other users), with a post I wrote some minutes ago: Bitcoin is not a safe investment anymore.
FTFY. I wrote one single word (5 characters, full stop included). Why shouldn't it be counted as valid post? Should it be cosidered spam or valueless? I don't think so, and with only one word it carried my message, what i want to make explicit, quite well. |

John K
Wat? Not sure if you're trolling or you just haven't been around for a while? Did something happen with John K? Six months ago or so, he helped me escrow a few high value deals and always had excellently written contracts, was a good arbitrator in disputes, etc He was the intermediary that saved the community from getting scammed ~4000 BTC by Yifu Guo on 1st generation avalon chips He's disappeared whilst holding a lot of forum funds apparently. Nah, he went missing for a while but then stopped by to give the forum funds back, but then went AWOL again and he's currently holding a lot of money in escrow and about 100BTC for a raffle prize I think. Yep, this is the relevant thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=412061.0About the OP's nominations, if asked I would say: 1) Gavin Andresen 2) DeathAndTaxes 3) Satoshi Nakamoto is ok to me too Just my two cents... |

Hi EvilPanda, please check if my signature is OK for you.
I used the original OP's signature and I also slightly modified its alignment so it's totally visible.
Rest assured that the inner text, colors and the links are untouched and fully working.

Looks like you might be right about breaking 32 by Friday... I have a question - What do people think will happen when price hits the all time high? Are people expecting a pull back (if lots of people hit their target and sell, or sell expecting others to do the same). Or if it breaks the $32 mark and continues to rise, will we see a big rally as people panic buy, not wanting to miss the boat?
Just fishing for opinions here...
1 year later... It took me a while to notice that OP was on 17 February 201 3 and not 201 4. \me "What the hell are they talking about?"  |

Math calculations or counting how much difficulty increase isn't needed to confirm your statements. Just self-confirmation is good enough, in this thread. I can confirm this. |
