441  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I just got "account claim rejected" from Mt Gox - anyone else? on: June 24, 2011, 07:34:21 AM
I got rejected too but I'm not too upset, I realized something earlier.

7- billion people on this planet.

we are 61,000 plus or minus I can't remember anymore.

from that list of users pasted you can guarantee at very minimum 10+ assholes are more than likely trying to claim each of our accounts. if any of them got into our email (gmail or others) they probably went directly to see the last IP that accessed it. I didn't want to write any of this until an acceptable amount of time passed as they are also posting and reading this here too. sup doodz. xD

For instance, that thread with people posting their number from the list was an exceptionally idiot idea. xD
I just hope the ones that did post in that thread were lying or practice very high level security.

I'll tell you another way someone could get your ip.
Post a picture in a thread here hosted on a server you control.
every user that visits that thread pulls that image to their IP, every offsite hosted avatar too.
Your ip is logged now.

What do they do now?
they take that list and run it through pipes and probe every single IP.

go into your profile here and disable avatars and sigs, and while your at it, message the admin to disallow posting images, we don't need to see that shit anyway.

We are in the jungle, poison darts, pythons, boody traps n shit.

When you take all that into account, you can't really be so mad at mt gox, sure you can still be angry, but there are factors being created now completely out of their control.

let me ask you this, would you really trust another entity holding thousands if not millions of your stake in something being completely free?

You do this right now. Your banks' infrastructure uses open and free encryption algorithms (and in most cases, implementations) and must do so in order to comply with regulation. So does your doctor (if you're in the US, at least). At no extra cost to you.

Additionally, mtgox is not and never has been a free service. They take a fairly large percentage on every transaction.

Nice straw man though.

Paying a recurring fee (purchasing tokens would be understandable, though as mentioned rsa can't really be trusted at this point) for two factor authentication and using a proprietary un-vetted password hashing mechanism means this service should not be trusted by anyone.

How about instead of using SMS as the second factor you use something that costs little-to-nothing, like, I don't know, an rsa private key signature? Or even better, why not an ecdsa signature from a bitcoin-related private key? I guess that just makes too much sense.

hahaha god damn you are one argumentative mother fucker!

Look at the bright side.
this is why I don't drink alcohol.

It's certainly not your job to tell them how to run their business.
I can understand you are devoted to them, but there is a limit to telling other people what they can and can't do. it's why we are here, to get away from those fools.

however, it cuts down a little on people having more than 50 accounts each. Wink

No they will just not be as secure as "paying" members.

let me ask you this, would you really trust another entity holding thousands if not millions of your stake in something being completely free?

What many others and I learned from this is using an exchange as an Ewallet was not the end all secure practice like a Lot of us had thought and hoped it was. The 2 step verification will theoretically bring using mtgox to be a relatively secure Ewallet. As it will also bring other exchanges into the main arena for doing so.

Whether or not trusting the exchanges enough to do so is entirely up to it's userbase, just like it was before all this happened. People trusting an entity they have never physically met with thousands of units in anything is something to say about the people doing so, but that obviously can be said about every business involving large quantities of anything.

What I'm trying to say is that remembering the word secure is only a relative term is a good thing.

Dude, I'm going to give it you how you need it.

If you really want something that will be used.
You need to simplify it down to it's core and make it in vector graphics.
The way you have it now is chalk full of noise that goes directly against professional logo & design aesthetics.

You should spend about 40 hours actively looking through these 2 sites linked below.
here for how professionals make logos:
http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/

and since you have interest in graphic arts you should look through here every day, for current design principles, it is also very entertaining.
http://ffffound.com/

back to your logo.
what I meant about going against design principles, is that the way you have all that stuff happening on the top and sides directs a viewer's focus away from the middle, which you don't want at all. Something like that in theory might work for television but only if the viewer has to look at it for less than 3 seconds.

This is all my opinion, but I hope this constructive criticism helps you in your endeavors.

You should consider hiring or consulting Clark Moody.

At least listen to that guy and setup websocket,
the stuff he did with mt gox's api is wonderful.

Thanks for the tip. I'll do some research on Clark.


You are welcome.

I don't know if you saw this, maybe you did:
I'll be sure to integrate as soon as they get a WebSocket server up and running.
http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=20069.msg251266#msg251266

IMO, this would no doubt benefit your exchange, I see it as the entrance to getting a lot of trades per minute.

I myself, was mainly watching his order book and time-sales like a hawk, and would even stop trading on mt gox when mtgox's websocket was down, so in my mind this is very important.
As most of us don't yet have the technical ability to implement something with the APIs ourselves we have to rely on someone that has implemented something, and something Very well.

these only work in browsers that have websockets enabled but it's enough to configure or switch to a browser like Chrome or Safari that does so securely.
He did these for mtgox.

has anyone gotten the email yet?

Between now and tomorrow at 3:00 GMT you should receive an email with instructions on how to access your account, provided you have successfully completed the reclaim process at claim.mtgox.com.

Thanks a bunch!

As soon as you said dark passenger, I realized you were simply talking about a tv show.

not even close, it was only a reference you understood, everything else must have went right past you.
456  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What kind of person are you? on: June 23, 2011, 03:12:36 AM
No one is as they make themselves to appear on the internets.

do you constantly look over your shoulder on the street too?
We create our own reality, reality is arbitrary.
457  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / What kind of person are you? on: June 23, 2011, 03:05:15 AM
I've noticed some rather intelligent and compassionate people here deep within the woodwork, very helpful types usually doing interesting things.
But I've also noticed very rabid animalistic types frothing at the mouth every possible moment they have a chance to type.
Seems those types are trying to take out some kind of inadequacy issues on anyone and everyone they can possibly muster.

Me? I am a self-admitted sociopath, the type that is comfortable with being myself.
I am a true life reality distortion field, depending on my mood I change reality around me to suit it.
On good days, I shine and the world around me shines with me. Those days are like a beautiful film, or a wonderful piece of music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=acEYrld-9sQ

On bad days, I send into the world tsunamis, earth quakes, tornadoes, terrorist bombings, massive fires, riots, influenza. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p05uzP2q-z4
Those days I try not to feel too responsible for, but something always resident in the top on my mind telling me to stop letting the ill conceived people of world control my thoughts. It's always really hard for me to remember I need to put up that wall, so that I can have the peace and calm, of not having that deep inner demon, that dark passenger telling me to distrust people, always looking for an ulterior motive in every single thing.


So, what kind of person are you?
Do you constantly find yourself trying to fight the world, instead of adapting to it, so that it will not adapt to you, the entire time kicking and screaming every chance you get?

Or do you find the world grants you the things you need when you need them, because you are able to unconsciously navigate to the things that need you?

Whatever is on the otherside of the link it doesn't matter, most people have already made their claims.
I'm talking about getting into our accounts again, "logging in", checking everything, seeing what happened to our accounts, etc.

Sorry for linking you to the wrong thing, just trying to be helpful. Mt. Gox will probably not be open for full business for at least another day. Just spam the F5 key on their site. Smiley

<---goes to install 1 sec refresher xD
J/K

BTW Your avatar and handle is dope.
