Now, let's read what theymos wrote when he created the self-moderation feature.
In most sections, you now have the option of marking topics self-moderated when creating them. In self-moderated topics, the OP can delete replies. The option for enabling this is under "additional options". Topics cannot be converted to self-moderated topics after creation.

There are no rules to self-moderation. In self-moderated threads, replies belong to the OP. In other threads, replies belong to the respondents individually. Think carefully about whether you want to reply to a self-moderated topic, as your post may not be given due respect.

Tell me if there are any bugs. If this ends up not working out well, I might remove it.
1. What is the extra benefit of this topic?
For good purpose, to delete spam posts. For shady purpose, to censor posts that are harmful for OPs.

2. Can a newbie make such type of topic? If not then which Rank require to make this type of topic?
Everyone can create a self-moderated topic but you have to do it at beginning. If you create a non-self-moderated topic, you can not change it to a self-moderated one.

3. If I use "report to moderator" option in such type of topic then where to sent my report?
The moderator who is in charge for the board in which that topic is made.

Please check the past proposal on it.
[Proposal] Change The Moderator of Beginners & Help. Maybe theymos does not intend to add a new moderator for that board or it is already allocated to global moderators, or it is at low priority of theymos.
He was removed as a moderator. Please see the answer from hilariousandco


Why does it take so long to remove inactive Mods? I understand that it is difficult to add new mods, but an inactive Mod ends up being a risk as well.

As I said, he was removed as a mod a long time ago. Theymos just hasn't removed his name from there and only he can do that. It's the same with the Press board.

And just to add: always keep a copy of your seed, but NOT on your computer. I couldn't count how much Reddit posts I've seen about people losing their funds and blaming Ledger even though they just saved their backup on a .txt file on their personal computer.
Just to add a minor point too. Don't store backups on cloud-service accounts. If you do that, you totally rely on service's reliability and security. It is very bad and risky.

Coin join transactions are good for your privacy. Your privacy, in turn will depend on how you mix your coins with Coin Join and how you use your coins after mixing. There are two wallets that use Coin Join transactions, Wasabi and Samourai, but I have my own assessment that Wasabi wallet is better.

Wasabi: https://wasabiwallet.io/
Samourai: https://samouraiwallet.com

Theymos has his shared opinion on privacy: [Guide] Decent mixing methods

TravelMug made a lot of good topics so he is here as a Hero Member and as an asset for the community. His helpful posts will help him to move further. I admire what you have done till now. I will spend more time to learn and of course you are in my following list, the one I can learn many things from.

I am not in the position to create helpful topics like you but I will try, beginning with learning more.
4166  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Old lesson: Don't rely on your phone. Always save your wallet seeds on: March 30, 2020, 01:49:57 PM
Maybe your wallet had a "skip" button?
Maybe OP wrote down seeds and use it to finish wallet setup. After the setup was done, OP thrown away what he wrote down. Today, unfortunately he lost his fund ($50) in that wallet, forever. Maybe someday later, he found that piece of paper or that file and get his amount of bitcoin back. Who knows, that day those bitcoin will worth $1000.

The pandemic and many types of paranoid around it that occur almost everywhere around the world are very perfect environment for a proof of bitcoin strength in serious crises. Bitcoin was born, back in 2009, in a global financial crises and now in 2020, we have been in another worse global crisis, that will create another bigger financial crisis in months later.

In Bitcoin, I believe that it will take that pandemic as an advantage for faster acceptance, globally.

Two years, and look how far you have gone. I am very impressive with your 2-years journey on the Bitcointalk forum. You and your journey inspired me and gave me strength and belief to do the same, same journey and hope I will get a same results.
4169  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Find your managers on: March 30, 2020, 11:10:55 AM
I updated the OP with the column that contains links to Service ANN threads of managers (if available or if I find it). If you are managers and don't see your Service ANN threads here (and if you have your ANN threads), please shoot me with a PM or a reply here, I will add it for you.

I gonna add more managers to the list, soon.
4170  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 2 User apply in same campaign, it's bounty cheater? on: March 28, 2020, 01:47:02 PM
It is a cheat, and managers of campaigns, bounties and owners of those companies have rights to create flags against cheaters. Or they can simply leave negative feedback on cheaters.

People are allowed to have multiple accounts on the fourm, and have rights to join many campaigns, bounties at the same time, but only one per campaign/ bounties. Using more than one account to join campaign or bounty will be considered as cheat, and it is highly discouraged on the forum.

I remember it is not a rule of the forum, but a very common treatment on cheaters.
4171  Other / Meta / Re: game-protect, is he permanently banned? on: March 28, 2020, 11:30:29 AM
It might be something related to blackmailing theymos to remove flags or else.
Whatever it was, good riddance.  That member was nothing but a bundle of problems for everyone else.
Whatever the cause is, he was banned permanently, since 3 March. His intensity for bans has increased recent months, first temp ban, second temp ban, and that one is a perm one. I don't know he was 3rd temp banned before that perm ban or not. Maybe he was not get a 3rd temp ban. Jump directly from 2nd temp ban to perm ban.
4172  Other / Meta / Re: Locked Account on: March 28, 2020, 11:00:57 AM
Thank you! I sent an email to that contact provided. But not sure if it has to be from the same email sent as the account was registered with?
You should send your account recovery request from the email you used to register that account.

Fortunately, it is not the only way to prove your ownership. The team will have many methods to ask you (some kind of private questions, I guess).

For future convenience, I give you an advice to sign a message from your bitcoin address and stake it at Stake your Bitcoin address here

Signed address will be one of the strongest proof for your ownership.
4173  Other / Meta / Re: game-protect, is he permanently banned? on: March 28, 2020, 10:42:58 AM
Thanks.
Eventually, he was banned, not because of his trolling, but because of plagiarism. With that evidence, his ban is a perm-ban. Cheesy
4174  Other / Meta / Re: game-protect, is he permanently banned? on: March 28, 2020, 10:36:23 AM
Yes, he has been banned. https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=game-protect
The modlog shows no info about the ban so it wasn't done in the last few days. Maybe we will see a thread by him in Meta complaining about the ban.
Perm-ban, right? And temp-bans are not shown on BPIP?
4175  Other / Meta / game-protect, is he permanently banned? on: March 28, 2020, 10:22:04 AM
I see game-protect, and find that his signature space is empty. Last post was made on March 03, 2020, 12:49:44 AM, and last active day is on March 16, 2020, 10:40:12 PM. So was he permanently banned, finally?

Previously, I saw him made many spam in gambling board, spreading over many gambling ANN threads with his biggest interests are attacking casinos and their licenses.

4177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP ready to make an Epic rally... on: March 09, 2020, 02:20:05 PM
It's a great coin, but a weird one because good news doesn't tend to cause price rises. But I do think XRP will have a big price surge fairly soon. It just looks so cheap at the moment.
XRP is a great coin, for its use cases in real life but for investors it is not. Many investors bought the coin at high price, in both BTC and USDT price, then stucked with it till now. There are arguments on decentralization of Ripple too.

Compare to altcoins, Ripple is the most boring top altcoins during the last 2 waves of altcoin rally. It have not yet rallied too much from its bottom. Yesterday, we witnessed a new bottom in XRP/BTC after many months.
4178  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Map of Stores Accepting Bitcoin on: February 28, 2020, 02:01:27 PM
As for Canada, I don't see any result maybe because they are no available stores that accept bitcoin there or their stores, aren't connected to the map yet. That's only my opinion though, given that Canada is a Big Country, it is impossible that there aren't single stores that accept bitcoin in there.

Edit: this one has shown the result for Canada, you can see it for yourself, there are lots of them look.

https://coinmap.org/view/#/world/51.32374658/-114.23583984/6
Canada is a crypto-friendly nation so the results show up by the site is strange. There are very sparsely colored dots show by the site.
Thank you for the image.
4179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Personal Opinion: Only a matter of time until Bitcoin will surprise us again on: February 28, 2020, 01:58:44 PM
the recent drops could have simply happened because price failed to break the major resistance at $10k-$11k after multiple tries for a long time and like all the previous times it had a bigger correction.
And there is a history that bitcoin has never broken its all time high price at halving days. Will bitcoin make it with this halving, the first time in its history? With the rising demands and general increases of crypto acceptance and the better law regulations, it has better conditions than the past to break its ATH around halving day, the 1st record.

If bitcoin breaks that resistance, then people will fomo buy it again and their fomo demands can help price skyrockets to the $14k.
4180  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Map of Stores Accepting Bitcoin on: February 28, 2020, 01:45:05 PM
I checked the site and the visual images from the site make me very surprising that there are so limited locations accepted bitcoin in Canada. There are but the number is limited.

Are there anything wrong with given results from the site for Canada?
