I will not waste my time with u but all i can say GO read about all religions and pick the best one for you cause it's better than 0 chance of being a stupid atheist.
Good luck again.
I've already done well enough reading. No, I'm providing this information to try and help you, just as you're trying to help others with this thread!



You're not a 100% successful gambler. You're more like a 0.1% successful gambler. Alternatively, if you do choose to believe in multiple religions, you'll increase your chances! Don't take these words lightly, it's "heaven" or "hell" after all.



I've already picked a religion, and I'm fine with it! After all, who wouldn't wouldn't choose to believe in Xenu? Roll Eyes
5082  Other / Meta / Re: Dear signature spammers... (or account farmers.) -- Read the STATS inside. on: December 17, 2016, 03:24:16 PM
but still its a users choice where they want to post, campaign rules are not really required to follow. users should always remember signature campaign is not a job (though campaigns really help some people). signature campaigns is only an incentive while you are posting here in the forum and not paying you to make post, its not the same

And who says that signature campaign should not be considered a job?
I am not encouraging spammers by saying that they "need" to make xx amount of posts in order to get paid as they will be caught eventually, but if you are saying that we should not go by the rules if in a signature campaign, better not to join it, ah?
Signature campaigns should be treated as an assigned job as you are in because you are supposed to advertise them, obviously through contributing in a better way and not through spamming.

job
noun \ˈjäb\

1. a piece of work; especially a small miscellaneous piece of work undertaken on order at a stated rate



Seems to me like it checks out. Signature campaigns are tasks that you sign up for - you fulfill a quota to receive payment. The pay rates can differ, but the principle is still the same. Think of most jobs in the world - they can be usually compared to signature campaigns. There are rules, there are managers, and there is payment for your work done.

In signature campaigns, you are paid to market to consumers. However, you aren't paid on clicks or views but rather the quantity of the number of posts you spit out - similar to renting out billboards. In this case, the user is the billboard and that is their job.



But the problem is the sheer amount of spam. In real life, would you really just slack off in your job and crank out shit to fulfill your quota for payment?

...

If given the opportunity to do so, a lot of people would. That's the problem. Spammers exist because they can; part of the blame lies on the signature campaigns that AREN'T cracking down on spammers and allowing them to exist in the forum.

I'd say make it a requirement to escrow funds before you big but that's just a huge pain in the ass and really all you'll do is punish others and lose customers.
Request a signed message from an address that has enough funds - that should be simple enough. I don't think it will take too much time out of people trying to bid, and it does resolve the issue of false bidders (unless they actually do have the funds and are unwilling to purchase it, which in that case would result in some punishment)

Did you make a typo? Is it $0.60 for first prize or 0.60 btc because prize 2&3 are in BTC value while 1 is ni USD. Either way if it's in USD, the price is a pathetic one. If it's not, goodluck to everyone.

Just asking to specify, thanks.
The answer should be obvious: all listed prizes are in terms of BTC, the $ was a mistake.

I think you are the one who should Pick a poison.

Cause i'm a muslim there is only ONE god. And good luck anyways Kiss

Hey, you're Muslim. Fantastic! You belong to one of thousands of religions. Let's say that there's about 4000, and that each religion has an equal probability of being correct. That's a 1 in 4000 chance, about a 0.025% chance of you being right about being Muslim -- and going to heaven.

Consider the religions that offer multiple concurring beliefs - let's estimate about 100. That increases your chances drastically, already! To 1 in 400. Now you have a 0.25% chance of being right. Why not do that, if you're choosing the most +ev path?



But alternatively you can try to base the chances of correctness on the popularity of religion. Alright, let's do that.

Taking current statistics, Islam has ~1.3 billion believers. Taking this in mind, the current population is around 7.4 billion. That's an approximately 17.6% chance of being correct... but if we factor in the total number of people who have existed (let's say 80 billion) then it goes down to 1.625%. Wow, a lot of faith you have there.



Back in the old days, people also believed in Zeus and gods living on Mt. Olympus. They also believed in a dog god called Anubis that guarded the underworld. And sacrificing humans by flaying them for the Sun god.

Were any of those true?
5086  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Whispe.rs - Send Text Messages Anonymously Using Bitcoin! [Please Help] on: December 17, 2016, 01:35:03 AM
The idea seems good, but the reality of it is that you have a ton of stiff competition - other services that offer SMS messaging (anonymously or pseudoanonymously)... for free. And because of that, there's not much of a market (if any at all) for anonymous text messaging. The only real way that one could make money off this is by selling a spambot or script, which would definitely not be the way to go if you're looking for a somewhat legitimate business plan.



Example: Google "free sms" and you'll find a ridiculous amount of results.

IF there is a god:

Chances are you're believing in the wrong one, and you're going to hell. Hey - there's millions of gods out there. What makes you think that the one you believe in is the right one? And here's the stinger - plenty of religions disallow the belief in multiple gods. Oops.

IF there isn't a god:

Nothing happens after you die.

Did you already sent those 6 codes?
Did he already confirmed if 2 of your 6 cards are works?
where is the proofs if you getting scammed? From your screenshot i just see if he will pay once he confirm atleast 2 of your cards are works


It's impossible to determine whether a card is legitimate or not without actually activating it. There is no proof that OP can offer which would help his position, and there is also no proof that carlosiness can offer to help his.

However, the question to be asked is: how is OP able to sell the gift cards at a 75% discount? And if they are able to do such a thing, is it legal?

-- along with that, why are they not selling them physically? (granted, it is easier to do sales [bulk or otherwise] online)

this has already been the reason for whywefight's trust on OP's page.

Will you at least provide a reason for the loan, and all relevant information?

Other possible collateral

You think its better to try scam someone as opposed to making mistakes.

No. Not better. It might be better explanation although I am not sure about the word "better" in that context either. I don't remember using that word.
lol  Grin i was knowing my english isnt  good ... but your is completely broken dude .. did you tried grammarly ?    https://app.grammarly.com/    Wink

Your English skills seem worse off, in my opinion. I'm catching 8 mistakes via Grammarly from your post, and absolutely none from ab8989's post. How ironic, hm?



The only grammatical issue that I might have with ab8989's reply is that they are missing an "a" between "It might be" and "better explanation"

Let's analyze yours:

lol  i was knowing my english isnt  good ... but your is completely broken dude .. did you tried grammarly ?

  • 1. "i" should be capitalized
  • 2. "was knowing" should be "know"
  • 3. "english" should be capitalized to "English"
  • 4. "isnt" should be "isn't"
  • 5. "your is" should be "your's is"
  • 6. ".." should be either a period or an ellipsis
  • 7. Given 6, "did" should be capitalized.
  • 8. "you tried" should be "you try"
  • 9. Lots of spacing issues before and after punctuation

** I would personally add a comma after "broken" and before "dude" but it's not completely necessary. Also, Grammarly should probably be capitalized.

Note: I don't consider myself great in terms English skills, but I think I'm pretty well off.


Back on topic: I await the peeling of the hologram and the conclusion of what OP requires from him.

I hope you add a captcha in your faucet because it can be easily tricked with bots. Its fun to play I must say. I raised to 500 but got busted after all. Good luck with your site. I hope you remove that referral rule soon Smiley

For what need captcha ? If you have more 50 bits, you cannot get free bitcoins Smiley
Perhaps the fact that the bots can infinitely use the faucet to drain your supply? It's not a huge deal if you're generating a large amount of profit proportional to this, but it's still worth adding in a captcha to reduce the abuse.

i just want to add, if a user gets banned even temporary or permanent, using new/another account and posting outside of meta will lead you to be banned permanently as a person because of ban evasion
Its 3 strikes and out. The ban just gets longer, if you try to evade with 30 days being the 'last straw'
Only 3?
It should be automatic and a Permaban if I was a moderator here. Angry

Plagiarising is a serious offense in some countries that can equate to jail time for stealing other's life long work. Tongue
It's three in the event that it's not a copy & paste ban. Spam, excessive trolling and the like will result in temporary bans (IIRC). Those time durations go from 7/14/30 days.

Edraket31 was talking about a general case, and as was brituspol.

Copying and pasting results in a permanent ban, period.

Let them go. They, the dead, will bury each other, and people who follow God will never have to put up with them again.

Cool

What god do you exactly believe in, by the way? I'm assuming Christianity due to its popularity but I'm still unsure. Maybe you're a Scientologist? Roll Eyes

In reply to this: (first thing you quoted)
Machine-like nature of the universe.
     All around us, in nature and the universe we see machine-like operations. These operations are extremely complex inside life and the cells. Machines have makers.
     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMn319zkZ2s
     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Id2rZS59xSE
     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJyUtbn0O5Y
     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao9cVhwPg84


Machine usage is in progression.
     Animals use simple machines. Some primates (apes, chimps, monkeys) use rocks and sticks to work their food. The leverage they provide with the rocks and sticks is machine use.
     People use simple machines. People make and use complex machines. All machines that people and animals make and use come from examples of machine operations in the universe.
     The progression is that, as the machines that people make and use are far more advanced than the ones that animals make and use, so are the machines that exist in nature far more advanced than the ones that people make and use. The advanced machines of the universe have an advanced Maker - God. Machines have makers.

Let's say I agree with you - machines have makers. Okay, then. In that case, can we also conclude that your god is a machine, and that it too must have a maker? And let's go a step further and say that the nth maker must have an n+1th maker, infinitely so.

And let's talk more about these machines: humans are perfect, yet flawed in so many ways. Wisdom teeth, cancer development, the list goes on and on... why did god punish us so? And if the soul does exist, then do animals other than humans go to heaven? What of infants, who have no belief of god?

Why are they deserving of an everlasting heaven?
5095  Other / Politics & Society / Re: After death on: December 15, 2016, 10:58:00 PM
My personal thoughts on the premise are that there will be nothing after death - your consciousness will dim and end - and that that is all.

Thoughts of having a soul or reincarnation are simply ideas for self-comfort, to ease the idea of death. Why worry about so many things in this life when you can simply have everlasting luxuries in the next? Regardless of religious preference, it should be agreed that in the past, religion was used as a form of control for the masses.

In times of struggle, is it not easier to hold on to hope if you had something to strive for? Why wouldn't you give up in times of great pain, like in a war, unless you had something to look forward to were you to continue? The human body and mind persevere in these points of time.

I have the idea that there is but emptiness after death however it is fine for others to believe differently.
5096  Other / Meta / Re: Unread posts since last visit on: December 15, 2016, 10:25:43 PM
This morning I was reading the recent unread posts since last visit and it was showing me a 6 page only and then now that I am checking it, it's back to the original many numbers that can take upto 50+ pages which normally see everyday.
I just feel like reporting what happened and maybe it is not only me who is experiencing that in the unread posts lit. It really isn't a big deal but I think it's a bug in the forum.
Is it possible that it was simply a misclick where you clicked on "Show new replies to your posts" instead of "Show unread posts since last visit"?

After all, it seems logical enough: 337 posts ranges ~8.4 pages given that they have all been in distinct threads, and I'm assuming you've checked some updated ones previously.

A minimum of 58 posts have to have been posted in the same thread, or 58 threads would need to have been checked, or any combination of the two.

* hardcap of 6*40 + 39 = 279 posts ranging 6 pages; 337-279 = 58

5098  Economy / Lending / Re: Invest in Sweeet's Business | First Legit Investor-Form on: December 15, 2016, 09:49:13 PM
I buy the gift cards bought with cash from a supplier for cheap, then sell the gift cards for their actual value. Vod was talking about simple APR although I don't under stand his math, I think it was monthly interest to the power of 12. There is no age limit to investing, as long as the money you got is rightfully yours then I have no problem with it, these factors are impossible for me to trace anyways.

Monthly interest to the power of 12 also doesn't work; regardless, the APR is 182.5% given a daily simple interest of 0.5%. This is relatively high given typical investment options, however according to your first post:

Quote
Currently I have around $1,550 (USD) invested into the business and every time I run this money through the process of buying and selling gift cards which takes around 1-2 days I make 280$ which I split between me and my business partner 50/50.

And given an initial investment of $1550 and a return of $140, that's a 9% return (which is 18x larger than any investors here) however if that is the case, then why do you not just simply continue to undergo this same process and reach your intended goal of $15000 in... 26-52 days?

Math below:

15000 = 1690(1.09)^n
8.875 = 1.09^n
n = 25.33

---

Regardless, it seems like you would need a lot of volume to reach the profit margin you're advertising - how much is the initial price, as a percentage of the actual price? Where are you able to sell this, and who - if anyone - is willing to buy so many at a bulk price for face value?



Also, with a return of $2750 with a principal of $15000, that's a profit margin of 18.33% which is pretty high. Given that this takes 2 days, you're looking at 3345.83% APR
