As John already stated, getting the IP is very unlikely. Scams aren't moderated to avoid abuse thus providing an IP without a court order would be both against forum policy and would violate privacy. Nothing stops you from trying, maybe your case is special in some way.

The forum policy is not to moderate scams and let the community police itself. That's what the Trust system was meant for. Spam is obvious, scams are subjective and moderating supposed "scams" can lead to serious censorship by mods/staff. That's what we need to avoid.

Every system is flawed, however, you misunderstood what Trust the trust system is made for. It means you should only pay attention to the people you "trust" (hence the name). That's what the Trusted and Untrusted feedback, the "Trust list" in the Trust settings and the notice bellow the Untrusted feedback, which goes like this:


is meant for. Trust is not Reputation. It's meant to highlight the Reputation you trust.

Some, in fact, try to make this their job. We and most people around the world called the majority of them spammers.

That's spam, not scam you are linking to. Ref spam to be precise. I actually reported it since it falls out of my jurisdiction.

Scams (or what seems like a scam) are not moderated. That's what the Trust system and human intelligence was made for.

It's offsite (no posting here, in the forum, required) thus it's allowed. Many newbies don't read the rules, nor the first post though.

Over a dozen for sure and counting. This thread is currently one of the fastest growing ones in the altcoin announcements thus causing the most spam.

The Trust system isn't moderatable. Neither BadBear, nor the admin or any other mod will remove the feedback. This has been stated by theymos many times already.

In most countries, BTC is still regarded like any game currency. In US, it was only recently declared as property. That doesn't change much regarding casinos with BTC I think.

Bitcoin isn't considered currency thus all "casinos" are as real as those seen in some MMOs, according to law.

He's paying for total posts, not posts per month.

The algorithm is a secret. In my opinion, it's good it is: more honesty in a mods work this way.

Posted while I was about to post my response:

My response:

Are you a mind reader? (rhetorical question BTW, let's keep this thread on topic)

I think one of the criterias to become a moderator was to not ask how to become one. Not really sure, but I think I read it somewhere.

Due to the amount of spam which is beginning to cause trouble particularly in this thread I have to put this out:

Warning to all posting in this thread or any other, especially alternate cryptocurrency, thread: Anyone posting in this thread or any other thread useless replies, such as "to the moon", "color the moon", "I like this coin", "Very good", "Done", "Waiting" etc. has a risk of getting their account banned. The thread owner has already stated not to post addresses. You have been warned.

Most, in fact, get much less than many active people from sig deals get. The payment is meant to be as a thank you for the work moderators do, not a salary.

Yes, it applies to spamming as well. Spamming advertisements usually gives you a perma ban, while some other forms have a smaller penalty. Multiple counts of any type of spamming usually ends up in a perma ban anyway.

The servers are faster probably due to the decreased load/traffic on Easter. Not all people want to spend their holidays on the forums.

Some of it in banks, for quick spending, many put most of their cash in precious metals, mostly in gold. Stocks of various companies is also an often used method to distribute the wealth. Maybe some of them invested a couple of ten thousands of dollars in Bitcoin.

Got the payment. Thanks Stunna. Left some positive feedback.
