What's to say you won't just recover it after receiving your bitcoin?

Even with escrow, how can we trust you not to?

I'm guessing they want to try a real life situation. Basically trying to show the weakness you may face when buying or selling things.

In this case, they're screwing everyone up with their experimentation.

It still doesn't make any sense because I was off this forum for about a month and it still changed despite my postings. It changed by 28 activity. That rules out that.
464  Other / Meta / Re: Activity confusion on: June 24, 2015, 11:06:55 PM
It could be caused if you had potential activity. Basically how that works is that if you post once during a two week time period, although you've only gained 1 activity point, you've also gained 13 "potential activity" points. So as you post later on, your activity will increase post by post, until all your potential activity points are used up. That could be what caused your activity change on a Thursday.

It can't be potential activity. I already have 1,425 posts.

Nope. I'm sure I signed on everyday the other week. I signed in on thursday and it was still at 462 (back two weeks ago). Around the afternoon time of Thursday, my activity increased. Now it increased at the end of tuesday as I logged in today on wednesday.

Why is it that it doesn't work in exact intervals?

Not that I don't like it, but the activity seems to increase sometimes on Tuesday or Thursday. Has it always been like that?

I'm now a Hero member because of it : )
It only increases on tuesday

Impossible. It increased for me sometimes on Thursday. In fact, the last one increased on Thursday for me.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/ccap/2015/01/19/nano-degrees-as-a-new-model-to-model-to-integrate-into-higher-education/

Nanodegrees are small 6-12 month courses that build up your portfolio and get you ready to work at a job full time.

At the moment, it's mostly computer science (if not all) classes, but the courses are created by accredited sources like an online tech institute, Google, and such. They're sponsored by different tech companies as well.

Would this be an alternative to a four year college? It's only 200 dollars a month and, compared to a college, that's 10-20x less than what you'd pay for top grade education.

The other claims are of getting a job with a minimum payment of 70k a year and up to the low-mid six figures.

Opinions?

Having half a knowledge of something can be very dangerous. Point here is whether the students taking short-term courses will be that competent and educated as the regular degree holders?

They have prerequisites to follow before they can actually take the course so that is the other half of the knowledge learned. I cannot guess on this nor have I taken any courses (yet, I'm curious to see what's involved) so I wouldn't know how competent they would be despite even reading testimonials.

Whoever sold you the account (assuming it was sold) was a scammer. With this tag, you're marked forever unless you can gain more trust from doing legit deals.

An alternative to paypal in the way of not getting charged back! Otherwise, a good currency that can be made all over the internet and in some cases, tax free!

To add, members like to sign on with VPNs. Since most users don't buy a dedicated IP, they would log onto the forums with the same IP as others. This in a way should answer a part of your question.
472  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Opinions on Nanodegrees? on: June 22, 2015, 11:12:41 PM
What you learn is just a specific skill as you said. Android Programming, IOS, Full Stack, Back End, and others.

Friedcat still owes me .1 btc for his signature campaign!

Other than that, I feel bad for the members I sold my shares to from Havelock a year ago.

If i buy your account, will i be banned for having 2 accounts and being active (20posts/day) for both accounts?

I personally know many members with multiple accounts. I can say you're safe.

Being active is alright as well. For your account rank, you probably have some kind of delay to your posting (Ex. when you're a newbie, you could only post every 360 seconds (6 minutes).

You could sign into both, but not at the same time.
476  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Hero member Skyvalley found scam yet offered thrm to keep it live if they pay hi on: June 22, 2015, 10:19:15 PM
Nope. I would scam the scamers to the end Smiley So I would show my research anyway, just to let those scamers feel bad more. Scam the scamers is really good idea. This guy got in right:

I don't know if this is a scam or not.  It does remind me of BitcoinT.  Anyone remember Equinox?  It was quite a while ago but it's ANN reminds me a lot of this and BitcoinT.  It also had it's own batch of random slavs with names you couldn't find on Google.  I wanna say they claimed to be Czech though.  SkyValeey said the XPH devs Polish errors made him believe they were from Russia.  Possible it's the same group of guys and but they are claiming different countries to throw people off their scent and explain their poor English.  This is all pure conjecture I admit.

I would have no moral qualms about trying to blackmail these guys either, if I were 100% convinced it was a scam and had proof.  I'd still release the information after being paid though because fuck em, scam the scammers.  If you have faith in this project, keep holding and thank SkyValeey for giving you a chance to buy more.  If they are legitimate and the store launches successfully next month, nothing he has said will matter.

I never even bought into this.  I'm just interested to see how it turns out and check to see if the dev released any new pics of my waifu.

Well, what would you have done with that extortion money had you been able to get it?

You should know of all types of member accounts that MOST altcoins are scams! You deliberately knew it was a scam and instead of putting it in scam accusations, you were going to get money from the member to keep him quiet! In my eyes, that's a scam.

So if you want to scam a scammer, you just scammed yourself of your good reputation.
477  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you know a cheap, hobby VPS? [EU] on: June 22, 2015, 09:26:33 PM
I recall somewhere in lowendbox where you could get a vps for a year for 7 dollars (somewhere was a dollar for 512mb ram and 20GB storage, but I forgot).

For the 1 year for 7 dollars, I use that for private socks5 proxies which I resell on other forums.

Check it out. http://lowendbox.com/

rihhana good job on getting Russian backlinks as well as being linked to many HYIP websites!

Good job for WHOISguard and registering just 2 months ago!

Man I hate it when the newbies come into the forum just to put up scams like this shit!
479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Whats the most expensive Thing you have bought with bitcoin? on: June 22, 2015, 09:18:43 PM
I bought GTA V for $36. Not that much.

Hey your user's picture caused me to think you were Vod for a second.

I also thought he was Vod for a second too!

Anyways, I bought a physical Bitcoin for 1.2k USD
480  Other / Meta / Re: Separate trust lists on: June 22, 2015, 09:12:12 PM
I'm going to disregard the complexity in this case. Have you even put much thought into this?
This would enable scammers to do a lot more.
Quote
Marketplace buyers and sellers
Escrowers
Software creators
Altcoins
etc.
What would prevent one from scamming multiple times from the same account? Each member would have to do some research on the member and verify his trust in for every single section.

Read my reply above yours and you'd see that I didn't put much thought into this.

But, as you added, it would make people do background research on others thereby decreasing their own risk of getting scammed. Once they scam, they're closed.

Another thing that is unpreventable is VPN's specifically because Bitcointalk is sponsored by Private Internet Access. Possibly they can ban every proxy and VPN other than Private Internet Access.
