The automatic transfer of "sub" posts to watchlist entries is finished. About 1000 posts were transferred. If your "sub" posts were not automatically transfered, make sure you manually transfer them soon. Moderators will eventually start deleting these posts. This is the SQL query I used: insert ignore into smf_watchlist(ID_MEMBER,ID_TOPIC) select distinct ID_MEMBER,ID_TOPIC from smf_messages where length(body)<40 and lower(body) regexp '[[:<:]]sub.*' and lower(body) not like '%subforum%' and lower(body) not like '%subdomain%' and lower(body) not like '%subscriber%' and lower(body) not like '%subscript%' and lower(body) not like '%subject%' and lower(body) not like '%subsidy%' and lower(body) not like '%subsist%' and lower(body) not like '%sub-%'and lower(body) not like '%submit%' and lower(body) not like '%submers%' and lower(body) not like '%substance%' and lower(body) not like '%substit%' and ID_MSG<>594521 and ID_MSG<>442378 and ID_MSG<>345513 and ID_MSG>300000;

I just recounted all post counts, and it turns out Satoshi actually has 576 posts.

There are already 10,212 watches.

I get this at the top (under Home... Help... Search... etc) of every page when anon now:
Notice: Undefined index: watched in /var/www/bitcoin/smf/Sources/Load.php(1753) : eval()'d code on line 170
Whoops. I fixed it. Also removed the "Watch" link for guests.

The ultimate authority of the domain name system is the US Department of Commerce (which currently contracts this function out to ICANN), so any domain can theoretically be taken down by the US government. ICANN hasn't yet been targeted directly, though -- the US has been going through Verisign, which runs .com and .net.
Country-code TLDs are probably safer than generic TLDs because other countries would be irritated if the US tried taking down domains registered under their ccTLDs. I don't know if .eu is the best, though, since the EU has pretty good relations with the US. You'd ideally want: - A large country that won't be easily intimidated. - A country without strong ties to the US. - A country that runs its own registrar. For-profit registrars can be easily intimidated.
What we really need is an alternative to ICANN's DNS. (Namecoin is far from optimal, unfortunately.)

how about cash via fedex?
Physically shipping the cash to me via FedEx? That'd be OK.

Could we perhaps omit the "Show new replies to your posts" if you have the option to "automatically watch" set on (like the other poster I no longer need "Show new replies to your posts" and would prefer to to actually see it now)?
I don't want to remove a feature. You may want to check it occasionally to see topics that you've posted to but have unwatched.

If you recieve and cash a USPS money order at the post office, I don't see how that could be reversed. You have the cash in your hand?
I've heard that USPS will try to track you down and get the money back if the money order turns out to be fraudulent.

Writing this feature made me hate SMF even more.

But before I can use it I have to wonder: The watch list starts out empty, right? Is there a way to mark all threads I've posted in as watched? This way I can start using the watchlist instead of "new replies", and add and remove from it as I see fit.

In case this is what you mean and you're unaware: When replying there's a "Watch this topic" checkbox in additional options, and it can be set to checked by default in the profile settings.
This feature doesn't work yet. I'm working on it. But before I can use it I have to wonder: The watch list starts out empty, right? Is there a way to mark all threads I've posted in as watched? This way I can start using the watchlist instead of "new replies", and add and remove from it as I see fit.
I'll make this possible.

Heh, I didn't notice that. Perhaps it was changed within the past few minutes.
Yeah, I changed it.

if you hold the check and it clears then it is no longer reversible. I'm trying to avoid the fee too
My understanding is that checks are theoretically reversible for 60-120 days. Maybe it's not easy to get your bank to reverse the check after a few days, but it's still reversible. That's what Dwolla told Tradehill.
Dwolla uses ACH transfers.

Checks and money orders are reversible.

|
And there we have it! The question is, can you have threads be auto-watched when you reply to them?
That would be nice, but I don't know how to add new profile settings.

Hi theymos, do you accept USD MtGox vouchers?
Sorry, no. I want to get the USD into my bank account, and MTGUSD is no better than BTC in that regard.

I have added the much-requested "watchlist" feature. It's like "show new replies to your posts", but it only shows topics that you've chosen to watch, and you needn't have posted in the topic. I only added it to this forum's default theme, the SMF default theme, and BlackBox. There is no listing of watched topics, and the only way to remove a watched topic from your list is to click "watch" again. Maybe I'll improve this later. Sometime in the future I'll automatically remove all "sub" posts and convert them to watchlist entries. "Sub" posts are not allowed anymore. If you have any non-traditional "sub" posts, please delete them manually. Tell me if there are any bugs. Edit: new features: - You can watch and unwatch topics you post to by using the checkbox in "additional options" when posting. - You can have topics you post in be watched automatically by setting an option in your notification settings. - You can move all topics you've posted in to your watchlist on this page. - You can edit watchlist entries here.
