Banning without researching does not sound very responsible to me.

Moderators are humans too, we all make mistakes. It looks like rickbig41 is looking into it for you now.
4022  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: A critique on the Lightning Network from a regular poster. Long. on: April 26, 2018, 06:40:36 AM
It appears that someone is obsessed with calling things banks when what they do bears no resemblance to a bank.

Quote
LN is not a direct pay the recipiant(P2P). its in laymans terms opening a channel(account) with a well routed(bank branch) hub. depositing funds into a channel(account) that requires co-signing(bank authorisation)

As defined by The Oxford English Dictionary a bank is "A financial establishment that uses money deposited by customers for investment, pays it out when required, makes loans at interest, and exchanges currency."

The other important factor that defines a bank is that it must be licensed to operate by a government.

Anyone can set up a Lightning Node and if enough people freely choose to open channels to it then it could be considered to be a hub. LN is entirely in keeping with the philosophy of allowing ordinary people to make financial transactions without the need for a trusted 3rd party. There are third parties involved but you are still in control of your coins. Nobody can use your coins for investment and they are not making any loans with them.

Edit.
Having reread the PM you published it is not so much FUD as misinformed paranoia. It is obvious the author has very little understanding of LN, the difference between a bank and a payment processor or how the dynamics of competition for fees will prevent a small number of hubs dominating.

There is no such a rule, unless it is spam or phishing.
You should know this as you have been longer here than me, try to avoid making false statements which are not helpful at all.

4. No referral code (ref link) spam. [1]

As far as I can tell the interpretation of spam here is generally that you should not post any referral links. The punishment seems harsh though, I think mostly the posts just get deleted unless someone keeps doing it.

4024  Other / Meta / Re: [List] Suspected users that are abusing merit 3.0 on: April 26, 2018, 04:41:25 AM
Im going to bump this up,

So are there less people abusing merit or are there less people caring about it?

I'd say a mixture of both. As the initial distribution sMerit dries up there is less of it going on. I still see some but have given up reporting it as no action is taken it seems a waste of my time.

Should posts such as this be reported here?

User 3la2 made a direct quote of the OP from the poloniex announcement thread. He's not added a comment to the quote, it's just a spam post. By quoting it he's not technically copy pasting, but he might as well have.

Not here because using the quote function isn't plagiarism, but you should use the report to moderator link on the post itself.
4026  Other / Meta / Re: Application for a merit source on: April 25, 2018, 01:57:14 PM
The post was edited way before this application was written. I think it was just a few days after the 25th of Jan. and the introduction to the merit system.

OK, that's one of the problems with editing posts, I didn't see it had been edited until much later.
4027  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: Merit Phase 2 - Drain the Swamp (@theymos) on: April 25, 2018, 01:55:08 PM
Then remove your signature if it's really doesn't matter, you think you are better then others? Maybe I'm also willing to get some small income for posting, as I'm sure you do.

If you were doing that then you would be posting regularly. How does making the signature a privilage to be earned, not a right have anything to do with "you think you are better then others?".

It is a rare privilege that this forum allows members to monetise their signatures. That comes in return for providing content to the forum. Gaining merit is a sign that other members appreciate that content, so it seems logical that it would be a good way to gauge if someone has earned that privilege.
4028  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion: Merit Phase 2 - Drain the Swamp (@theymos) on: April 25, 2018, 01:29:39 PM
I'm posting rarely, and let's assume I want too put signature for any reason, I will be unable to do it? Nobody gives me these merit points, so what about that?

Would it really matter if you couldn't have a signature? The whole point is to make the signature a privialage to be earned, not a right.
 
4029  Other / Meta / Re: Application for a merit source on: April 25, 2018, 01:26:23 PM
Oh my good lord,how did I miss it

It wasn't there originally but the post was edited and that was added probably after you posted this thread. There were other applications that all listed old posts as well.

But it is an old post (year 2013) and maybe it is an old post...

It is an old post that has been updated with all the changes as they happened so the information is current.

Your post is more recently and you do not speak about "GOLD COIN".
Can you clear this situation about GOLD COIN? Are they are needed for example to get the rank Jr Member? If they are needed how can I get them?

You don't need the gold coins for anything but they are displayed under people usernames so that the higher ranks stand out without having to read the rank title.

As I pointed out to OP recently.

Your inability to follow a simple set of forum rules != censorship.

Jr. Member Izalcomax Autoban user: N/A in topic #0 by member #1756027

Economic systems need a trusted authority to control the money supply, as one tool of monetary policy. As an individual, I feel confident when I use central bank money that the state will enforce legal tender, backed by its monopoly on the use of legal force.. Well, IMO.. Bank still got what it takes for the economics right now

I'd highly recommend to press the ignore-button at the left side of his post.
I literally did this 5 minutes ago, and already have the subjective impresson of the forum being 'cleaner' regarding shitposts and a rapid growth in IQ-average here.

It's actually amusing arguing with Anti-Cen. When you point out the fallacy of their argument they start by trying to just ignore it and carry on making the same false claim. But if you keep pressing them on their falsehoods then eventually they run away for a couple of weeks and then come back and pretend nothing happened.



Do you imply that most cryptocurrency use "Bankers" system since the protocol force user (or wallet include fee by default) to pay fees on transaction?

Anti-Cen likes to try and throw in 'Bank' as often as possible as it goes against everything Bitcoin is about. But he fails to understand that charging fees makes someone a money transmitter and that in no way meets the definition of a bank.

think of something to retain those users. Some kind of incentive scheme {The more active you are, the higher your FREE

ROLL pay-outs?}

That's what the reward points scheme was introduced for. I don't think those figures are particularly out of line with any other gambling site or faucets for that matter. Certainly from my experience of getting referrals on other gambling sites I have a far better retention rate here.
4036  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Freebitco Rigged HI LO Expose (Scam) on: April 24, 2018, 01:45:47 PM
LOL now you say it's fake,, ,  the first video isn't my,. you dont even read my topic clearly,

It's badly written nonsense so it is difficult to understand.


So you want me give me my id and password, to get ban immediately.

I already told you I don't want your user ID.

I don't have fucking free time to make a fake video , you dumb fuck .

I've been using the site for years as have millions of others. It doesn't make sense that your rolls wouldn't verify when everyone else's do. So either you are doing it wrong or you faked it.
4037  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: FreeBitco.in - Win free Bitcoins every hour! on: April 24, 2018, 01:35:40 PM
and you believe that client seed is genuine or it's random LOL .. let stop this debate,, and talk about how my result roll is totally different from calculator.

Already answered in the other thread.
4038  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Freebitco Rigged HI LO Expose (Scam) on: April 24, 2018, 01:34:53 PM
Oh god, there were 2 videos and the second one is even longer. You could have completely faked that with the way it jumps to another tab.

The system works and is fair.
4039  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Freebitco Rigged HI LO Expose (Scam) on: April 24, 2018, 01:23:45 PM
That video shows a roll of 5412 all correctly.
4040  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: FreeBitco.in - Win free Bitcoins every hour! on: April 24, 2018, 01:14:26 PM
Read this topic guy, listen to me if you have btc on this site you should withdraw all and stay away from this scam.

The site doesn't cheat anyone.

Or you can do my trick, change clients seeds for every roll (<--- since i do this trick it's work my % winner increase, and the site can't cheat you, earn big then withdraw all or maybe you got scam like me who know?.

Have you ever heard of variance?

You could save a lot of effort and use the "RANDOMIZE CLIENT SEED" feature on auto bet.
