4401  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why did Satoshi use GB English and international English ? on: July 11, 2021, 06:32:36 PM
He/they probably mixed it up so people can't easily figure out nationality.

With that being said, I honestly don't get the people's obsessions to figure out who is behind Satoshi Nakamoto name. Sure, all of us spend some time thinking who could that be, but I dont think that it could bring anything good to bitcoin, and I think that's exactly one of the many bitcoin's strengths.

OP, if you are motivated by one merit, I will give it to you. You have a choice now. You can finally participate in a bounty where at least one merit is required, or you will still become proud and realize that you can do more. Start learning bitcoin. Make time for more than just reports. Many have come to the forum, starting with the bounty. But then they sobered and realized that bounty is a waste of time.
You always have a choice.
+1

OP did the first and most important step, he went out of his comfort zone known as altcoin bounties section, something that like 99% of the bounty hunters never do and just even that is a success. I do hope that this merit he got will serve him as an incentive to check other parts of the forum, learn thing or two about bitcoin and rank while doing so, but somehow I think he only needed 1 merit to join some bounty campaign so that's why he went out of his way. Hope I am wrong though.

Napokon uhvatio malo vremena i za pregled aktivnosti naseg boarda. Kao i uvijek, chartovi te poneki screenshot su preuzeti sa @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboarda




Broj postova  u periodu 01.06.-30.06.

I ovaj mjesec nastavljamo sa padom; u navedenom razdoblju napisano je 547 postova sto je pad od cca 20% u odnosu na 5/2021 kad je napisan 701 post. Ovo nam je najslabiji rezultat jos od 7/2019, ako ne brojimo situaziju sa pocetka ove godine kad je zbog otvaranja novih podforuma doslo do odredjenih naizgled smanjenog broja postova. Kad se gleda samo nas board, izgleda zabrinjavajuce, ali pad u nasem boardu samo prati generalno stanje na forumu, tako da ne odskacemo ni tu puno.







Ovo sto sam spominjao da nas pad prati generalnu situaciju na forumu je vidljivo i na ovom chartu, na kojem mi i dalje stojimo prilicno solidno unatoc najmanjem broju postova u cca 2 godine. Znaci samo 5 lokalnih boardova je ispred nas (tu je u biti i Ruski koji je zbog velike kolicine obrisanih postova zavrsio u minusu), tako da smo realno eto u top 7 lokalnih foruma unatoc tom padu aktivnosti.





Analiza merita za period 01.06 -30.06.

Pad aktivnosti je naravno pratio i pad merita, tako da je u 6/2021 podijeljeno samo 66 merita sto je jedan od najslabijih rezultata uopce. Sa 2 nova merit sourca koja smo neki dan dobili, ne ocekujem da ikad vise vidimo ovakve brojke.






Iako smo bili losi prosli mjesec, ipak smo zavrsili negdje u sredini, ali ugavnom zahvaljuci tome sto je je jos par lokalnih aktivnih boardova imalo takodjer lose rezultate.





Kad se gleda merit/post prosjek, naravno da smo na zacelju, ali ocekujem da se sve ovo drasticno promjeni ovaj mjesec, tako da me bas zanima kakva ce situacija biti.






Za kraj, lista aktivnih clanova naseg boarda preuzeta sa @TryNinja ninjastic.space. Zna se tko je na vrhu listu, a medju top 5 se nasao i @sunce33 kojem je u biti velika vecina postova prijavljena i obrisana.

Da li postoji neka tema gdje theymos objavljuje trust liste ili oni imaju pristup nekim podacima koji nisu javno dostupni?

Evo na primjer, ti si dodao Rikafip-a na svoju trust listu i to se moze vidjeti u odjeljku "Trust list overview" na vasem profilu na loyce.club stranici. Odakle Loyce.club i bpip.org stranicama ovaj podatak?
Jednom tjedno (mislim) theymos radi trust data dump, evo i linka na to https://bitcointalk.org/trust.txt.xz . Ista stvar je i sa meritom i sa tim nekim ostalim statsima koje ekipa onda scrapea i koristi za ninjastic.space, merit dashboard, bpip etc.

Hi, i am from Slovenia, complete beginner i would just like to buy things online that require payment with bitcoin, i do not intend to do anything else with bitcoin. Can you help me do it and not pay high fee? I would like to pay aroud 100 euros.

I suggest you join the Slovenian or Croatian subforums and you will get adequate information there, experiences, and maybe even some guides on how and where to buy with crypto in general (locally or online). The subforums are always active.
Good advice!

@LavenderBirch  In case you understand Croatian, here is the link for Croatian local board which is very active. Alternatively, you can try your luck in Slovenian thread but its pretty inactive, seeing last post being written couple of months ago.
4406  Other / Meta / Re: Have you noticed many newbies/junior members opening threads lately? on: July 10, 2021, 11:46:56 AM
The only thing I've noticed is that when "newbies/junior members" open a thread, in most cases the did not leave any post after they've opened it.
That actually a pretty common thing across various forums; people register on forum asking help for some specific issue or question they have, and after getting an answer, in majority of cases they just disappear and never come back. So yeah, nothing extraordinary there.

I did the similar thing on some other forums as well, disappearing after getting hep with specific problem I had, but at least saying thank you/writing few posts before going AWOL is part of basic posting etiquette, which many fail to do.
4407  Other / Meta / Re: Have you noticed many newbies/junior members opening threads lately? on: July 09, 2021, 02:53:50 PM
What is clear is that if you open threads (if they don't suck) it's easier to get merits. I don't know if they know it and that's why.
Not true at all. If you are generating quality post, you will get merit. No matter it’s a reply or a thread itself. Without quality, no matter what you create, you are unlikely to get merit.
Regarding creating thread, I see no problem with that if the topic is something to discuss about, if the topic isn’t discussed hundreds of times. Then there's nothing wrong to create a thread.
He is not completely wrong there, that your chances of getting merit increase if you make a thread. Of course, if thread is complete shit you probably won't get anything, but they do use that as a merit fishing tactic because sometimes it works.

My favorite merit fishing tactics are when a newbie account gives advices how to be a good forum member, or how to get merit Cheesy
4408  Economy / Reputation / Re: [LIST] ANN threads that are using bumping services on: July 09, 2021, 08:09:39 AM
Another ANN thread that high likely use bumping service considering it a self-moderated topic and there a lot of newbies (most of them got banned already) trying to bump it

ANN thread: [ANN]The Standard Protocol is a decentralized finance (DeFi)
Archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20210706221620/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5346012
Yep, no questions about it, another case of thread bumping. Looks like a classic M.O of a notorious Vitor Services, as they are using newbie accounts created years ago. Its good to see that mods started banning those accounts, but unfortunately it seems like this "marketing agency" has unlimited amount of old newbie accounts accounts. I wish I knew how they managed to get so many of them..

Anyway, Standard ANN thread  will be added to the list.
4409  Other / Meta / Re: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity on: July 09, 2021, 05:57:16 AM
I think I already found the answer when I was reading your thread further

Quote
So, in the end neither Merit Dashboard and ninjastic.space are 100% correct, and some weird results will happen, but I decided to stick with the former when making those charts as I prefer occasional odd results due high amount of deleted posts over inflated numbers. To get clearer picture of board activity, best is to use both of them
Yep, thats it.



Indonesian local board have experienced a decline in the number of monthly merit distribution since the merit system was implemented. This time only 62 merit were sent there. November 2020 is the lowest month among the other 2 months, December 2020 and June 2021. I'm sure there's no missing merit source there, but it could be that some of them have high criteria in choosing post before sending merit. I don't see any other reason for this, apart from the decreased number of post then quality is always the reason why not much merit is being shared there. Hopefully there will be improvements after adding the merit source.
I have no idea what's going on in Indonesian board, but amount of merit shared really took a dive. In my first monthly overview back in March 2020, Indonesian board had 821 merits shared, and compared to this month's 62 that's like 90% decrease which is huge. In the same period, number of posts didn't change drastically, so that shouldn't be a  main reason.

I mean, I can understand merit shared decreasing due lower number of posts or lower quality, but such a huge decrease looks more like you lost merit source, or he became inactive. Then again, this is just my speculation based on the numbers, members of your board can probably give a better answer.

That's kind of sad tbh, so many people are afraid to speak with me via telegram or discord. Why should you guys talk with me there? Cause I'm more active on these platforms and already answered some questions.

No one is afraid to talk to you via Telegram, but you came here on bitcointalk to advertise your service, so naturally people are asking questions. So, since you are advertising here, I see no point to steer conversations towards Telegram.

Regarding you being a newbie, don't be surprised that people are suspicious as 9/10 newbies selling something are scammers. Who knows, maybe you are one of the legit ones, but you gotta be prepared for this.
4411  Economy / Services / Re: [Service] Binance Future Signals by CF (worth 1800$) on: July 06, 2021, 08:25:34 PM
As I said, contacting me will solve everything.
If you wish to close your eyes and ears, that's your opinion and I respect that.
How exactly will that solve anything, as suggested members to use escrow when dealing with newbie accounts with no prior trading history, like yourself. And how come you decided to use new accounts, are we supposed to believe that this is the first time that you registered there?

Can you also explain how exactly you are doing this? You simply forward trading signals you got from that private trading group?

So many questions...
4412  Other / Meta / Re: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity on: July 06, 2021, 08:15:25 PM

I was taking a look at your charts, and I am happy that the Portuguese board is becoming one of the biggest local boards in the forum. This is a recent event, as our board used to have less activity.
Yep, it's nice to see that Portuguese board is not only maintaining its numbers while majority of other boards are getting less active, but even increasing the post count. Keep it up!


However, the merit/post ratio there is extremely low compared to other local boards. I was able to visualize that thanks to your charts.

Recently theymos added one more merit source in our local board. I hope things will get better there soon.

Edit:   There is no spam in the Portuguese board. Our ratio should be much higher.
Congratulations on getting additional merit source! What you explained is pretty much situation on Croatian board as well; we also have very clear board with minimum amount of spam, and it was also under merited. Luckily, we also got another merit source, so situation should be much better from now on. As I said before, Ia m really curious to see this month's stats after the increase.
4413  Other / Meta / Re: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity on: July 06, 2021, 11:25:50 AM
I agree with the suggestion that members from Pakistan also get their local board, based on their contributions and activities on the forum.
Well, they will have to be persistent if they wanna get local board, and unless I am mistaken they already have thread in Meta asking exactly that. Generally, I understand why forum stuff doesn't add new boards easily as there are so many dead/half dead boards already, but I do hope that they are not completely opposed to the idea of making new ones, if there is such a need.



Did you censor the Italian board on purpose on this graph or it is only an error?
It was an attempt to remove one of the most quality local boards in order for my local board to appear higher on the list. Cheesy Joking of course, it was an honest mistake and it's been sorted already, thanks for letting me know. I see that Italian board keeps going strong, 0.63/0.58 is a great merit to post ratio!


Once again, you are a bell ringing: it’s time for my analysis on the Italian board! (And I admit double checking my results against yours).
I have to do the same thing for Croatian board as well, as soon as I catch some time.

@dkbit98 hvala na prijedlogu, ali makni mene sa liste. Ja trenutno imam jako malo vremena za forum, a sudeći po svemu situacija se neće promjeniti bar do kraja godine. Uostalom, ima puno boljih kandidata pa i da sam aktivan kao nekad, a pogotovo sada kad mi se zna dogoditi da cijeli dan ni ne dođem na forum.
4415  Other / Meta / Re: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity on: July 06, 2021, 08:32:11 AM
I'm of course surprised that deleting posts from 2018 directly affects the post count of 2021. In fact, there is no negative value in the Russian locale and we go with the Turkish locale almost on a par.
Both @DdmrDdmr and me explained to you how Merit Dashboard counts posts, yet you keep going on month after month with the same thing all over again, like a broken record. I also explained to you why I prefer using Merit Dashboard (and when I gonna change that) over ninjastic.space when it comes to post count, and I stand by my decision. There is no conspiracy against any board, so stop QQing about it. Well, you can go on, but at least I won't have to look at it.

Since I don't wanna go through all this again, and you obviously don't plan to stop with this pestering, you are going on my ignore list. Over and out.

4416  Other / Meta / Re: [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity on: July 06, 2021, 08:13:41 AM
Time has come for yet another monthly overview of the local board activity. Like in all previous overviews, all charts were made sing @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard where you can find more details about each local board.

You will notice several communities marked with "*", meaning those are the ones without own local board but I think it's important to include them too. Well, at least those few most active ones that may have some chance of getting their own local board.



Post activity per local board during June 2021


Unfortunately, post number continued to decline after last month's increase, and almost all local boards had decrease. Turkish board remained at the top, followed by the German  and Portuguese. Last month Russian board had so many posts deleted that they ended up in negative, meaning they are missing from this month's chart.

It's nice to see Pakistan community going strong, despite not having their own local board. Looking at their activity for the last couple of months, maybe it's time for another local board which ( AFAIK) hasn't been added for quite some time.





Merit shared per local board during June 2021

During June, only 3588 merits were shared, which is a solid ~9% decrease compared to May 2021. That goes in line with overall forum's all time low when it comes to merit shared. Usual names are at the top of the chart; Russian, German, Italinad and Turkish, and pretty much the same thing can be said about the bottom.

All this merit numbers should look significantly different in the next month overview as theymos introduced 14 new merit sources, and increased monthly allocation to some of the existing ones. By doing so, monthly merit generation increase by ~60% so I am really looking forward seeing how that reflects on local boards.




Merit senders and receivers per local board during June 2021

Pretty much straightforward chart, in which (naturally) more merits shared usually means more people involved, with a few standard exceptions.





Merit/Post ratio per local board for June 2021

And for the end, merit/post chart, that is going to look (hopefully) much better next month. I do hope that some of the new merit sources are from the few local boards that look seriously under merited ( Croatian board got new one yesterday) like Turkish and Pilipinas. Not that some of the others also couldn't use extra merit , but those two looks the most undermerited, given the limited data I have (I don't speak those languages so I can't tell how quality discussions are there).




The most active members during June 2021 per local board

For the end of this monthly overview, I think that it's important to mention the members that are keeping their local board alive. List is made using the data from @TryNinja ninjastic.space

A list of more linked accounts of the already known bounty cheater and ban evader.

1. Doge11
2. Tron11 (Archived)
3. Man22 (Archived)
4. bluerich230
No surprise there, after getting all of his older accounts banned, he just created couple of new ones and continued with business as usual. After those four accounts that you reported get banned too, he will just make new ones in a rinse and repeat manner. It may seem futile and some sort of whack-a-mole game, but at least we made his bounty business a little bit more complicated.



As a side note, despite the similarity of my forum name, I am not related to any of these accounts.  Cheesy
He indeed likes to put numbers in his name, so obviously zero fucks given as he can't even bother to be more creative with naming, or at least use different address.
4418  Other / Meta / Re: {LIST}of the Merit Sources asking for more smerit. New Round. on: July 06, 2021, 05:14:13 AM
As expected, June was the new all time low, with only 13289 merits shared during that period, which is pretty big drop (~15%) compared to May with 15802 merits shared. So yeah, hopefully there will be some merit adjustment soon.
That sucks, but guess what?  Theymos just airdropped me 1000 sMerits!  I thanked him via PM, but I'd like to also thank him publicly as well.  I appreciate it, and I'm going to do my best to perhaps make July a better month for merit distribution.  One person can only do so much, but now I've got sMerits aplenty and plan on spreading them around.
Congrats to you, all the other merit sources who got their monthly allocation increased, and those 14 new merit sources. I would say that timing was perfect as everyone could see where all this was going, with so many merit sources being inactive/less active.

Hopefully this ~60% monthly merit generation increase results with more quality posts and new members.
4419  Local / Hrvatski (Croatian) / Re: Merit Source aplikacija on: July 06, 2021, 05:08:57 AM
Nakon dugo vremena, theymos je konačno promovirao novog merit source-a, NotATether.
Nadam se da je to ''dobar znak'' i da je theymos konačno ''spreman'' pregledati i druge prijave za merit source-a i promovirati još kvalitetnih kandidata.
Theymos je jučer povećao broj merit sourceva sa 97 na 111, znači 14 novih pa se nadam se da je i dkbit98 među odabranima.(ako je, cestitke  Grin).  Mislim da sada merit neće više biti problem, jer će se od sada mjesečno generirati cca 60% merita vise, što je ogroman skok.

Even though legit signal groups do exist, actually good ones are extremely rare and from what I heard, mostly work in bull run, but that's not the main problem here, but a complete newbie with no trading history reselling it.

I would advise everyone thinking about this to use escrow.
