I feel that in the long term it will be a gain for all of us as the accounts get harder to gain seniority and in this way it helps the accounts gain more money
Why do people keep repeating this! It is EASIER than before because all you do is create an account, do 7 posts a week and you gain hero status by WAITING. Not by doing anything, not by being credible, but by WAITING. And by that virtue, EVERYONE will get promoted to hero. Again, no activity = MIN(time*14, post count) Don't you know what is a fucking MINIMUM? How can min(a,b)=100 be easier to achieve than b=100? Clearer: how can "posting once every two weeks for more than a year + posting more than 400 posts" be easier "posting 500 posts"? |

Type out the passphrase in notepad or some other editor to check if it really comes out the way you think it does. Capslock and accidental keyboard-layout-swaps can cause this type of confusion.
better yet, type it in notepad, then copy+paste into bitcoin-qt. This is indeed the only way to be sure of what you type in bitcoin-qt |

I figured it out. The problem is in input format, file should contain key;label, not just key
Do you think I should clearly write the format instead of showing it while hovering? I figured it out. The problem is in input format, file should contain key;label, not just key
oh cool. as far as i can tell my addresses are there because when i dump in pywallet they show up, they just arent recognized because i imported them and the blockchain hasn't finished dl'ing yet. my addresses are all less than a few months old and i'm still behind nearly a year on the blockchain. maybe tomorrow it will all be dl'd and i will se if they show up then. Do you see them in the corresponding tab in bitcoin-qt? |

2 to 1 odds theres a person watching that stash accumulate for him for nothing and hes going to cash it out someday. Nice free bonus for being mr 111111111
And how would that person have the corresponding private key? |

If you think microwaves go through the atmosphere, see my previous post
So they wasted their money building this?  It is the South Pole Microwave telescope. Since the atmosphere blocks microwaves it should never see anything right? Maybe your right and it doesn't work, they just built to enjoy views like this on the taxpayer dime.  D&T, there is no possible way that jackjack may be mistaken. The crickets have spoken!   This is the true face of microwaves Stop spreading dangerous bullshit   |

1. Notice something changed in the forum
2. Don't even notice it's not called Posts anymore but Activity
3. Run to Other > Meta
4. Don't read the 3 threads that have "activity" in the title
5. Make a new, useless thread

Thank you
So now you need to be active for:
- more than a year to be hero 7 Months
- more than six months to be senior 3.5 Months
- more than one month to be full member
I really like that
Fixed. No Are calculators that hard to use? Oh wait you don't even need a calculator 400 / 14 / 4.34812 = 6 months and 3 weeks etc. Where does 4.34812 come from? time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration
activity = min(time * 14, posts)
time*14=400 time=400/14 number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration=400/14 two weeks=14 min number of days=400/14*14 |

Rename to blockchain DOT INFO and move this from here, it has nothing to do with Bitcoin Development & Technical Discussion
Technical discussion about Satoshi's Bitcoin client and the Bitcoin network in general. No third-party sites/clients, bug reports that do not require much discussion (use github), or support requests. |

Lets read more post more constructive posts, work hard and get our former membership status back. I am sure we can do it.
Actually the only way to increase activity is to post at least 1 post every 2 weeks and wait |

Don't tell me you are here only to get that hero member tag.
Actually, now Hero Member finally means something and not only that I was able to make 500 posts in the "first word that pops into your head" thread.
Not particularly concerned with being a "hero" member. Most of the heros I know are dead. The few that are still with us are pretty dark inside. Actually the very idea that some metric of post count and days as a member makes someone more trustworthy is asinine. Personally, I find the ability to see every post made by a particular member more useful than some post count metric. I have made it a point to read all the posts of anyone I have done business with. It is time consuming but much better at giving me a sense of who they are. See how people are crying, just imagine if theymos just removed the post count without putting any stat at all |

Spamming is discouraged but so is posting.
So you post only if you feel you get trust from this? You're exactly the point of the new system... That is a bit of an assumption on your part. I post because I have something that I believe is worth contributing. I'm not one to run around doing +1 posts or playing "count to 100,000" games. The past system provided some credit for my contributions. It is not clear that credit was worth anything but judging from the angst in this thread, it matters to some. I will still likely read many threads and reply on the ones where I feel I can add value but the new system no longer gives me any incentive to do that more than once every two weeks. Since I can spend time posting here or spend time doing other fun and enjoyable things (hobbies, family time, work), the new system is a disincentive for me.Your results may vary. So you need credit in order to enjoy posting. Again, you're exactly the point of the new system. |

So that's why the guy is mad He spent its day on the forum to get the hero status I registered yesterday, Im not sure why its showing up as today. But back to the main point the post system showed who was more active on the forums, with the activity method anyone with a script can run it all day and rack up activity points. Stop spreading your bullshit The activity number is determined in this way: time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration activity = min(time * 14, posts) Activity is updated every 30 minutes. The new membergroup limits work like this: | Group | Requirement | | Brand New | 0 posts | | Newbie | (none) | | Jr. Member | 1 post written over 4 hours ago | | Member | activity: 15 | | Full Member | activity: 60 | | Sr. Member | activity: 200 | | Hero Member | activity: 400 |
I'm not 100% sure that the membergroups work correctly. Tell me if you see any bugs. So now you need to be active for:
- more than a year to be hero
- more than six months to be senior
- more than one month to be full member
To trick the old system you just needed to run a script for a day or so, now you need to run it for months Really? you quoted your own post from another thread. Theymos hasnt said anything that supports this So now you need to be active for:
- more than a year to be hero
- more than six months to be senior
- more than one month to be full member
Is it that complicated to do the math? |

There's been a discussion of late regarding post counts, spam, and newbies flooding the forums. The idea is to weigh the number of posts against how long the user has been on the forums. That's a logic decision. I only have 18 days of this forum but, as I'm on holidays, I'm very active in several threads. It's why I already was a Full Member... not anymore... Now we have to see what the new rules are...  This thread is sort of a testament on why a change needed to happen. Focus on the content and character of a poster, not how many gold coins are under their name, how many posts they have, or what member title they have. Ok, I don't even deserve to be a Junior Member, as I don't know how to add numbers... eheheh... From First May till today are 48 days and not 18... But regarding titles and gold coins... That would not be a problem if I had many BTC (10 or even 50) as I could buy whatever title and gold coins I would like... with the donation system of this Forum. But you would still have a low activity Yes, but see your own case, jackjack... With 2 full years of registration in the Forum and with more than 2,3K posts, it's ilogic to be only a Senior Member with a activity of only 280... I agree but I'd rather have a not-so-high activity than having to bear with all the hero-spam that came lately |

I'm really confused by this and I'm sure other people will be too.
What is the point of this "activity" thing if someone wants to see the amount of posts? A lot of newer people and anyone in general will probably be confused as well..
I don't think I like this activity thing, maybe also show the amount of posts someone posted next to it?
Again, how is it any useful? Do you value more a post when you see a high number at its left? The point was to stop all the spam that took place only to get the hero status. That will definitely solve this. |
