Jeste, iako sam nedavno postavio novi fake Uniswap airdrop, i dalje gledam ono što ljudi tamo objavljuju i koliko merita dobijaju.
Mogu ti pokazati puno prijava bez ijednog merita a možeš i sam pogledati Smiley
A moguce si u pravu, iskreno nisam previse pratio koliko ostali dobiju merita, znam samo da je kod mene oduvijek variralo. A kad mogu, znas da tebi  posaljem Smiley. U zadnjih mjesec-dva se pojavilo jako puno scamova zbog ovog defi hajpa pa sam tako i ja prestao pratit svaku objavu koja se pojavi u tom dijelu.




To je jedino što ima smisla. Da je moja "natural" sekcija nešto drugo osim gamblinga i našeg lokalnog siguran sam da bi već bio legendary ali i ovako sam skupio solidno merita.
To svakako, da bi odavno odradio Legendary kvotu merita da si bio aktivan negdje drugdje gdje ima vise merita, ali opet gledaj to sa druge strane: da si pisao negdje drugdje, vrlo lako moguce da ne bi upao u daleko najjacu kampanju na forumu, a upao si upravo zato jer pises o onome sta te bas zanima, i to se odmah vidi.


Pitanje za vas statističare, jel ima negdje analiza ljudi koji su dobili najviše merita po sekcijama. Mene zanima baš za gambling da vidim di stojim.
Merit dashboard biljezi samo merite dobijene po boardovima, tako da ukljucuje sve child boardove, pa  je jedino moguce vidjeti sveukupan rezultat za Marketplace, jer Gambling spada pod tu sekciju. Posto je to nedovoljno precizno s obzirom na tvoj upit, zatrazio sam pomoc. Srecom, @DdmrDdmr je uvijek spreman pomoci (thnx again for your help), pa mi je poslao listu samo za gambling dio, na kojoj ocekivano ti stojis jako dobro, taman upadas u top 10.  Napravio sam jedan ss da se vidi top 20, a ispod slike je i link sa punom listom.



A evo i linka sa svim imenima ( u tab 2 je lista svih merit transakcija na gambling boardu)

5562  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which casinos have IP blocks in place for restricted countries? on: September 27, 2020, 09:10:47 PM
Although gambling sites have IP blocks for some restricted countries, it doesn't mean that a gambler can not access that site because as long as a gambler can use VPN, especially a premium VPN, he can visit on that site without a problem. Even if gambling is prohibited in his country, he can still visit that site using a VPN. So I think that will not be a problem. With VPN, we can open the restricted website, and we can get inside without anyone knows.
I think that you missed the point of this thread even though OP explained why he is doing that, so let me try to explain

It's all fine and dandy when you use VPN to circumvent restriction, but what will happen in case you hit the jackpot, and then casino decides to ask you for KYC We've seen plenty of those cases in scam accusation board where casinos didn't really care from where people are as long as they were loosing money, but things changed fast when it was time for big payout.



Good initiative @Pmalek, I'll definitely follow this thread as I'm curious whether they do anything after you contacting them.

Founder & CEO of HelioSwap is Peter Harris, can you post social channels from these people? And where can I see the team?
Lack of the transparency when it comes to team identity is not the problem, unfortunately. They copied idea and a lot of content from two other projects, Falcon Swap and Mainframe so I suggest everyone to stay away from this as it looks like just another scam trying to use current DeFi hype, and we've seen a lot of those in the last few months.

Those who want to know more about their plagiarism case might wanna check my topic in scam accusation board. I would also like OP of this thread to give some explanation to all the this, if he can. Here is the scam accusation topic

Mislim da je sada malo teže dobiti merite nego ranije, iako meni nisu potrebni i koliko god dobar post da napišem teško dobijem neki merit.
Mislim da to ima veze i sa time sto si presao preko 1000 merita, pa samim time ekipa ti manje daje iako kvaliteta postova nije pala, jednostavno mislim da ima i onih kojima je i to faktor kad daju merite.


Ranije se više dobijalo i u scam accusation ali i to se utišalo, i kako vidim po statistici najviše merita ide u Economy
Koliko sam primjetio i ti si manje aktivan u scam accusation boardu nego sto si bio prije recimo pocetkom godine, pa ti se moguce tako cini. Tamo se isto nikad nezna, nekad dobijes hrpu, nekad samo 1-2 a nekad nista. Isto treba malo imati srece. Bas sam malo pogledao svoje scam prijave, i od 107 dosadasnjih scam prijava, ako sam dobro brojio u njih  33 sam dobio 0-1 merit. Znalo je biti i 3-4 prijave za redom bez ijednog merita, jebiga. Treba nekad imati i srece po tom pitanju. Ja picim po svom, pa ako bude merita, super. A ako ne bude, opet dobro.
A sto se tice Economy, Wall Thread spada tamo, tako da nije cudo da su jaki po tom pitanju, to im nabija statistiku.
5565  Economy / Scam Accusations / [Warning] HelioSwap plagiarized whitepaper! on: September 27, 2020, 08:27:11 AM
What happened; HelioSwap took content and ideas from Mainframe whitepaper and Falcon Swap project and used it as their own, without providing any reference whatsoever. Naturally, there is no mention of the team. Not on the website, and not in the whitepaper. Overall, this looks like just another quick money grab attempt.

5566  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Merit is Not Earned By Luck, But Because of Your Efforts! on: September 26, 2020, 05:14:32 PM
see @rikafip i see him first time on Anniversary contest as new comers, and now he can be one of scam busters club members. He learn something analyze something and share what he know, now see how much his earned merit.
True, I was still relatively new member when I joined the anniversary contest, that was fun I must say, and I would like to see more of that. Sadly, some members even exploited that but that was kinda expected.

I was not a newbie though when it comes to cryptocurrencies when I registered on the forum, and prior registering I was lurking for some time and just quietly observing what's going on. Another thing that helped me is the fact that I was active (and I still am) on other forums  for many years, so environment was kinda familiar. As a matter of fact, forums even look similar (also old school type), except that it's not crypto related

But I was newbie when it comes to exposing scams ( my obsession with scammers comes from the bad experience few years ago when I lost approximately 90% of my portofolio) so I was looking up to more experienced members, and I didn't hesitate to send them PM and ask them questions every time I had some doubt how to proceed.

Pretending knowing more than they do is standard mistake, as newbies think that they have to know everything immediately in order to get merit so they plagiarize and do other dishonest stuff, while that's not really needed. All you have to do is to be active, genuinely curious and not hesitate to ask those that know more and merit will find your way.
5567  Economy / Reputation / Re: [LIST] ANN threads that are using bumping services on: September 26, 2020, 09:36:43 AM
Two new threads have been added to the list:

72. 【ANN】JBOXCOIN - JBOX - Listed 2 Exchange and Airdrop is Live
Announcement thread has been created by a known shill account more than a month ago , but they didn't start with their "work" up until 2 weeks ago, when they realized that thread is not getting attention or traction so they decided to "spice it up" . Accounts used are also (or they were) active in few other threads that are already on the list, like Fetch.ai, ZYX, tap etc.


73. AMEPAY is a fast and secure cryptocurrency-based payments alternative
I've noticed Amepay and suspicious behaviour in their announcement thread some time ago, but somehow I forgot to include them in this list and now it's time to sort that out. Accounts used are also  active ins everal similar threads, like Uncommon, Monolith, IOOX..
5568  Local / Hrvatski (Croatian) / Re: Zbirni topic za davanje merita za kvalitetne postove on: September 26, 2020, 09:02:28 AM
Ma da. Samo što mi Hero member ništa ne znači u trenutnoj kampanji jer bi morao početi ispočetka, od najnižeg Tiera, a to mi se ne isplati.
Trofo je napisao da pišem tamo gdje me zanima... Zanima me diskusija vezano uz altcoine ali tamo mi oči krvare kad čitam diskusije. Prestrašno! I ne mislim samo na nepoznavanje engleskog jezika nego što uopće nema diskusije. Točno se vidi da svi samo štancaju postove da bi ispunili bounty kvotu. Ali dobro... Opet sam off topic Grin
Istina je da je altcoin sekcija vjerojatno najgori dio foruma, uz moguće off topic gdje isto ima hrpa gluposti. Stvar je u tome da situacija nije dramatično bolja ni u ostalim sekcijama, i nema tu puno pravog razgovora. Uglavnom se odrađuje kvota i priča u rukavicama i pazi se da se netko slučajno ne zakači.

Uvijek imaš opciju otvoriti self moderated thread o recimo defiju, koji vidim da te zanima, i onda fino staviš disclaimer da će se svi besmisleni postovi brisati, i onda rokas. Isplati se makar probati. A ako ti se neda, onda jebiga, drži se Bitvesta i to je to.

One who was banned probably know the reason and no one is going to be banned here by mistake so that is permanent ban,no need to appeal and waste your time.
It is possible to get banned here by mistake, here is a recent example Incorrect ban for plagiarism - I copied my own text.

In this case user copied his own reddit comment and someone reported it, so he got banned. Weird thing is that he is still banned from what I can see, even though he proved that he is original poster of that reddit comment.
https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMining/comments/ggrje5/research_for_comment/

Imho, this looked like a pretty simple case and I expected ( and some other more experienced members) it to be sorted in his favor, but I guess mods have different opinion, as he never even got a response and all of this happened one month ago.
5571  Economy / Reputation / Re: Suspicious donation for baby? on: September 26, 2020, 06:27:11 AM
Is it just me or something is not right here?
It looks like an obvious scam attempt, and pretty bad one when you think about it, but I'm sure in scammers mind he appeared to be mastermind, with this new account faking the interest. As someone said here, scammers are pretty stupid sometimes.


No one believes that the photos displayed are real or not, it could be someone else's photo was taken by someone while visiting the house, but I'm not sure they are in the hospital under treatment, I am more sure that the photo was taken by someone while visiting the house, a few days after giving birth.
Thing is, picture could be real and taken from some legit fundraiser, but of course scammers like the this don't have any scruples, and they are willing to to share pictures of sick children for their own financial gain.

Just last year my friend lost his child, and some scammer saw the picture in newspaper and decided to run fake fundraiser campaign, pretending that he is uncle, and just wanting to help the family. So yeah, there is nothing scammers won't do no matter how disgusting it is.
5572  Other / Meta / Re: Paraphrased articles, without providing links to originals. on: September 25, 2020, 04:08:05 PM
So I see @F_Societys decided to ignore my friendly suggestion and he keeps doing the same thing, just a little bit adapted. I really don't understand how hard can it be  to share reference link and avoid all this, but I guess he wants to appear knowing more than he actually does so he willingly  chooses not to mention source.

Well, at least he can't say he wasn't warned about his behaviour. Many newbies didn't have that privilege, they were instantly reported and soon after banned.
5573  Other / Meta / Re: Reduced forum activity on: September 25, 2020, 10:06:55 AM
But signatures are a problem, why do i need to go to settings and block the signatures or the user because their signature is spamming and annoying?
If you are really annoyed with signature campaign, you will disable them. Same thing if you are annoyed with some users, you can always put them on ignore and problem solved. But it's easier to QQ and complain about it rather than spend 1 minute and solve it.

What if i am accessing the forum without login in?
If that really bothers you, log in. Or is that too hard too?


Why is not the opposite?
If i want to see the annoying spamming signature i turn the signature ON.
So just because you are annoyed with signatures, forum should cater to your needs and disable everything on default so you don't have to spend 1 minute of your precious time disabling them. Sure.


And this is another reason why most of the activity is moving to chats, like telegram or discord.
There is no signature on those chats.
No one is moving to those because of signatures. They are simply different things, that serve the different purpose. Forums are generally less popular than they were 10-15 years ago, that's true. People simply have more options to communicate, and younger generations prefer something faster.


Also i notice that some treads there is a warning saying that the creator of the post is a scammer, i never seen that on Discord or Telegram.
Take a look at ONION tread, there is a big warning, but there is no warning on their Telegram.
I don't know about Discord as I am not active there enough, but Telegram does have "Scam" mark. Accounts get tagged with that when they get reported enough times, I don't know how you missed that if you are active enough on Telegram.  

5574  Other / Off-topic / Re: [Question] MiUI security on: September 25, 2020, 05:38:54 AM
I am using Xiaomi mobile phone with MiUi for the last two and half years, and I have no complaints in that regard so far. I am not a security expert, but somehow I doubt that they are any less secure than android version you can find on other phones. And yeah, Xiaomi offers a lot for the money, they are the kings of  budget-medium segment.

Just to add that i am not storing a lot of crypto on the phone, and even on those rare occassions when I do, it is for very short period of time, usually from my home until i reach BTC ATM or vice versa so its like up to 1 hour. Generally I don't think that it is a good idea to store sensitive crypto related info on the phone, no matter the OS. On the other hand, I am accessing this forum on the phone quite a lot, and again no issues whatsoever.
