Although I've follow(ed)4follow the entire list here, I've already muted one person's twitter feed who simply seems to be clicking retweet constantly.  Somewhere down the track say in 12 months time I'll look back at their posts history and quietly unfollow them.  (maybe in three months)

All levels of Government here in Fortress Australia are echoing the advice of the World Health Organisation.

• Wash your hands regularly including when handling cash
• Maintain Social Distancing (Aust advises 4 sq mtrs)
• Avoid large gatherings (Aust was at 500 persons outside and 100 indoors, but last night have changed that to ten out doors and fewer still indoors).
• • Stay at home.
  • Avoid large family gatherings.
  • Only travel out to buy food.
• Treat health care professionals with respect.  Care for them while they care for you.
• I'm sure there are more - we are all having to adjust to new normals.

I'm sure there are more.


People should continue to remain focused and active during any lock-down or stay at home.  500 out for more than 110,000 active users is a small portion of the users.  The forum will continue.  

Where it *might* come unstuck is if anything were to happen to @theymos or one or two others that hodl the purse strings and/or keys to the forum.


For six months there will definitely be a decline in participation of the forum - that's a given, but I have no doubt the forum will bounce back.  In Australia the staples are being stock piled: sugar, long life milk, pasta & rice, tinned and frozen grains (peas, corn, lentils, chick peas etc)  gravy mixes to name a few have all been panic bought...

...as has toilet paper.  

Stay Safe, keep in touch via electronic mediums.  Be sensible too.

Many thanks for processing these payments - we all appreciate receiving them.



I'm just trying [Guide] Broadcast Your RAW Transaction BTC & Alts coins to see if I can speed things up. Disregard - they look to have gone through already.

Has anyone tried out Phoenix https://phoenix.acinq.co/download - it seems to be Android only (side by side with Eclair) I'm wondering what people think of it??  If it's okay I might try getting the LN for testing purposes started up again.

If you were allowing us to pick options in a poll I'd go with option three - having said that from time to time a user's negative against me has made its way to DT2/1 but then have slid down the slippery pole and their trust feed back as gone again.  Some of those negatives are Butt Hurt ™ members giving other butt hurt members negatives... (Naturally, there's couple of accounts I wouldn't like to see go)


Satoshi doesn't qualify for DT1 unless s/he were to post in the first couple of days of the month...  

*edit* Have just spotted you were looking at Untrusted feedback - here is the trusted stuff: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=3;dt

Thank you for the update - Hopefully lightlord will respond and give an indication of when we will be paid.  I have no doubt CBB will advise us when they receive a response.

My newest list is BCTF4F https://twitter.com/i/lists/59219414 (Kind of makes sense).  I'll get a list together tonight if Jaz hasn't already composed a list for the OP.

There's a couple of people who've listed the twitter profile but haven't followed me.  Not sure how we can encourage everyone to F4F, but am adding all for the time being.

Yeh, I did wonder about that.


Thanks, I appreciate it.  I'm not hodling my breath it'll get much attention, but it is out there for people to see.  Much obliged.

Not sure about the table formatting...

I've just ticked over 75 merits in the last 120 days - I have a question about the OP:


Does that mean my mobile alt qualifies as the main account has more than 65 merits in the last 120 days? (...and is DT1)      

Your case doesn't really have any punch to it - you should be suggesting that it is a contactless form of payment and is a quick and cheep alternative to electronic payment systems that can charge 1%- 5% (or higher) of the purchase price added on as a transaction fee by the bank where as bitcoin has little or no fee.

The Lightning Network pushed that transaction fee even lower still to fractions of one cent on every day transactions as well as colossally high value transactions as well.

I disagree that there should be a suspension of posts - it's the only way to "rank up" in this campaign.  If we all decided not to post then the campaign fails.  I take my hat off to the manager for having to trawl through a thousand or more posts each week and have to make on the spot decisions as to whether or not a post is good quality or not.

@itsv:

There's also a YouTube channel, a hashtag and a couple of twitter "lists" that people have listed - don't forget them (I'm not following any youtube or Facebook for that matter, but others have posted those links)

I was wondering if you could have a look at this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210989.msg53917845#msg53917845 and see if you can do something better?

I'd like to change the DT1 to the BPIP.org letter I in a circle (even if it's just the ⓘ <--- with a similar blue background to the one being used by them)

We can discuss the finer points via PM, but I'd probably drop the two lines of text under my user name and at right an area for unpaid advertisements (eg white rectangle background with the adds already in place)

Followed.

Guys & Gals - I have a suggestion for important retweet requests between ourselves we use the hash tag

#BCTF4F <---> Bit Coin Talk Follow 4 Follow

This would be a way we can request others to retweet the post via this group - a fair warning if someone just spams that hash tag I'll removed them from my list and encourage others to do the same.

My first #BCTF4F retweet request is: https://twitter.com/Timelord2067/status/1241901866339807232

This doesn't have to be just for global emergencies, but most people on Twitter have more common sense than Facebook where some people just repost everything they scroll past.

Any thoughts, or feedback?

*edit*

I'm not meaning the hashtags are put here, just in the tweet concerned - check the hastag feed (link above) say once per week in quiet times, daily when times are challenging.

I expect we will be back to $1,000 to $1,250 by the end of this year.  Australia is introducing the closure of non essential businesses and are warning that these enforceable rules will be in place for at least six months.  No pubs, clubs, cinemas, Churches, restaurants and similar all closed for six months.  Investors will cash out and the price will collapse.

I'd also be interested in hearing of any exchanges that have low or no fee to add alt coins - there's been a slum in the number of exchanges that trade some old but still popular alts.

@CrisTofar:

What would possess you to quote over a thousand lines of a post to then post a one line "it wasn't me" post?

You're use of English is appalling - you asked "Am I not connected?" not "I am not connected!"

AFAICS from a cursory glance - Yes, you are connected, thanks for asking.

@invincible49:

Thanks for your contribution - am looking forward to follow-up posts of other alts being exposed.

What part of OFF LIMITS do you not understand?  Did you think that Newbies would be allowed to just sign up and then scrape all the information that is stored there?  If you preserve, you might just rank up enough to see that section.

I'm not on YouTube, so I won't be able to follow any YouTube (or Facebook for that matter) suggestions that are made. I've updated my follow list with the newest additions too.

Yes that makes sense.  I couldn't recall the exact post, so thanks for reposting it.  I figured I'd post the example in case you needed more statistical data on the issue.
