I don't think it is a good idea to apply. With this program, people who have high-rank accounts on bitcointalk can have accounts with high ranks in altcoinstalks forum instantly. Means they have a lack of effort to do, while many members started from zero activity on altcoinstalks have no such easiness from altcoinstalks forum.
 
its look not fair for old member that spend much effort to get their current rank. but altcoinstalks do this strategy to make their forum be more active and attract new user that not active due rank reason.

I don't have an account on that forum. After I looked in general what the forum is and the activity of its users, I realized that I did not want to have an account there. Maybe someday my opinion will change, but now there is nothing to do there. Even such promotions will not change much.
you could make it first, before this promotion end. someday att account will usefull and you could regret if not make it now.
indeed it is not fair
but not everything in life is fair,
and hopefully we'll make it up for our native users in other ways, maybe more airdrops to native users .... i don't know we'll see

I think this kind of features (ranks teleport) can be a good and bad at the same time. It will be good for people that came from other forum like Bitcointalk, they can just up their ranks without much effort, but it might be also seems unfair to totally new comers. I still dont quite understand how the ranks affect the user on altcointalk tho, I got a 'baby-step' rank and already able to put image on my signature

I saw a type of compliant from someone about how members coming from here and now have Legendary ranks with no effort. To me it makes sense though, acknowledging users high activity in the crypto space from another forum only seems fair. They have the teleported badge so it's still obvious their activity is from elsehwere until it's removed.

39 teleports so far I see in just over a week, so I guess it's working. Disclaimer: I'm a mod so my opinion in bias Tongue


this exactly the idea ! acknowledging users high activity in the crypto space
embracing the crypto community rather than requiring people to post on my forum to rank
in other words on altt your voice matters, even if you did not rank on altt

The admin must consider this, it's not good for people to start from zero activity and must to try harder to get a high rank,, but he knows there is a system which allows new people can get high rank instantly, it's hurt for him and I think admin already know the lack of this system. So i hope there is a good system for all members..
i see people , i don't see systems, ranks merits karma and all this, what matter are the people
all these systems are as fictitious as the national currencies you use!

hello vaultman,
may i ask what you find repulsive ?
PS: this is not a promotion, i found out about this post by mistake
65  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 20, 2020, 07:21:15 PM
you signed up in 2019 ... i left here in 2017, back then this forum was flooded by people who want to make money like everywhere else ...
the merit system is great and a big applaud to implementing it!
on altt we have other systems, we have karma, we have plagia strikes we have quality strikes, it's not an awful place ...

You may also need to consider the type of merit you get as a basis for granting teleport. I am sure you have known that members have received meritdrops according to the ranking of members when the merit system was implemented and some of them also managed to earn merit because they were good posters to move up to the next rank.

If you are also going to teleport members who have received meritdrops to date, you should give more privileges to members who move up the rankings based on the merit they have earned (eg teleporting them 1 to 2 rank higher than on this forum).
hello noorman,
there is no way to know which merit points are earned and which are not, is there ?

great promotion by the way. since its working other forums might just follow what you did here.

altcoinsTalks is getting popular. there are many active users somehow, cryptocurrency will be populated with lots of people and I guess different forums as well will be populated by different people who wants to communicate with people of same interest. i will create an account there, it doesn't need to have same email address right?




yes, no need for same address

Description: I'm not altcoinstalks forum admin/moderator/manager or somehow related to it's development - I am an active user and want to share here info, which may be useful for others. This feature may be useful for managers/promoters/project and for regular users as well, you will be able to join bounties/etc.

Teleported Rank

The crypto community is growing fast, and with new waves of users, the experience gets diluted. We end up with groups of people talking nonsense about price speculation, with no real knowledge at all.
We want experienced people to have a say on our forum. That's why we are launching the Teleported rank.
This rank allow top users to teleport from other forums to ours, while keeping their rank.
That means they can have valuable discussions, share their knowledge and improve the quality of discussion, but also they can join bounties and airdrops on our forum as well.

There are few simple conditions:
- Need to open an account with the same username as the forum you are teleporting from.
- If you already have an account here, tell me to label the teleported one as duplicate.
- In the signature in the other forum, put a link to the teleported profile you opened on our forum, link should be: My Altt
- message me with details:
 link to your profile + info if it is your first account here or it's a duplicate

Open teleportation gates:
- bitcointalk : ranks with full member and above
- Other forums: ranks with senior members and above  :> Might be closed soon

Original thread on Altcoinstalks: https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=178480
Altcoinstalks forum admin: https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1

If this is somehow against bitcointalk rules - I will delete/close/archive this thread. Thank you.

This may sound good news to all Full members in rank to altcointalks, right?
I Just don't get 100% the advantage of this teleport rank, but the only thing for sure is the all their rank
over this forum of altcointalks are surely advantage.

hello cherry,
i don't get what you mean
a teleported rank, is basically your  altcoins talks account will be the same rank as you bitcoin talk account. this means > you get access to most boards and you can join bounties and sell on classified etc ... we are recognizing the users for who they are and not necessarily for how long they have been on our forum
68  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 20, 2020, 02:03:20 PM
hi;
the rank is teleported if user is full member or above.
trust can not be teleported, we have a classified section overthere so the approach is different.
and i personally do believe that people are naturally good, so it would be unfair to makes the mistakes a user did follow him everywhere.
It's good to believe people are naturally good. But what if they would like to use this feature to scam one of your members. It's unfair for some members who would like to use this feature for advertising their project, but this could be an advantage for scam purposes. Still, if your decision is final, I can't change it. Good luck with your forum.


so far haven't seen any, will keep an eye
but usually it is easier to create new user with blank reputation than use a user that can be tracked to bad behavior
69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 20, 2020, 12:01:43 PM
Because I think terrible for teleported member and gain Legend rank instantaneously, which we must to make a hard effort to reach it but he reach it for so easy.
Actually I have no problem with the admin's decision,. because the altt has a higher ranking than the legend. I know your problem mate is not easy to get ranked hero and even legend on Altt, but the solution is only one, namely actively contributing to the forum, I think your rank will go up
ranking up is tough on both forums, for btt it is even a bit tougher with merit, but yes, activity and good content is the key in both forums
we have some star wars ranks above legendary, so some fun can still be achieved ranking up

I have looked into the forum and to me it seems it is being run by some set of people, let me call them Cabals. I do agree the quality of post there is very low and diluted and it is very important to improve discussion there. The main issue for some of these new Crypto forums is that they are struggling to attracts new and active users because of the first mover advantage Bitcointalk enjoys

Don't just because of the first mover advantage but because they lack the enthusiasm the forum member of bitcointalk has. While other forum are just created to attract those wanting to make money, bitcointalk is about building future bitcoiners. The rules here are of standard and the features brings about a quality forum. With the merit system members of the community has been forced to engage more in constructive discussion but that can't be said about other forum.

Do bitcointalk and altcointalks forums belong to the same owners?
If not than this seems like a move from altcointalks to get some users of bitcointalk to enter their forum instead, because i don't think it is possible to join a signature bounty twice with your altcointalks and bitcointalk account.
And during bounties is pretty much the only time where the forum rank really matters. If you just want to engage in the conversation on altcointalks, then you could just create a new account and start chatting.


It is obvious that altcointalk wants to attract more high-ranking members of the BTT forum to its forum. And they chose the right strategy, although it doesn't look entirely fair to regular ATT users.
Obviously, high ranks of BTT will not waste time and unnecessary swinging accounts, but with such a teleportation - why not?

It's good diplomatic move from altcointalk.Atfirst it make the people to know about altcointalk.Most of the people in the forum was not aware about this altcointalk.It was similar to bitcointalk and give some payments to the hunters.
the forum is already old a bit , 3 years now, with roughly 60 000 member, but of course we are looking to find more quality members ... but no need to see this in a competitive point of view.

It is interesting, but it would be necessary to see what the administrators of this site say.

I will wait patiently if this will be possible ...
i am the admin on altt and i confirm the post
73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 19, 2020, 09:49:36 PM
Thanks for the feature. I already have an account there. I created it also this year but then I have a different username. Can I request to rename my account similar to BTT username since its a mandatory to have a similar name?
It's neat to have the feature at least I can already have a good account and join a campaign as well. I don't see BTC paying campaigns too.
Why not just create another account with your username here?

I want to ask if this feature will transfer the negative and positive trust feedback of a user in the AltcoinTalks forum? I'm not a user of the Altcoinstalks forum, so I don't know if there is a trust system in that forum. But I think it will help your forum and user identify the good member and the bad member from bitcointalk.

the rank is teleported if user is full member or above.

I just heard about altcointalks, I'll check that out later. My question before I sign up (maybe): will I get a rank that is proportional to my account in this forum immediately even though I have no activity?  Grin

This shouldn't be against bitcointalk rules I guess but how about security? I believe that using same information as on Bitcointalk for other websites isn't safe to be honest, details should be different because data can be breached in any ways
Even though you will or have registered with the same username, you should not use the same email and/or password for different sites because each has different security systems. If that happens on you, please change your password as soon as possible.

1- Yes this is the idea of teleported account, you get exact same rank
2- Obviously i would advise users to protect their accounts, but in case of hacks or even hijacks, you can always request password reset - unless you also lose the email !

This is good news for bounty hunters who want to be active in forums other than bitcointalk,
but are the altcointalk forums crowded? because I have not been very active in the forum for a long time, only active a few times if there is a sudden need or want to participate in several campaigns.

there are few bounties running only on altt, but most bounties are the same as on btt , mostly with same bounty manager on both forums but some times it's other managers.
the altt is active, not as super active as btt, btt is a superstar of course , altt is much slower; but also doesn't feel like twitter where post just keep rolling, let's say altt is the relaxed stress free version of btt Tongue

It seems the altcoinstalks forum is trying to attract more users, however this will most likely destroy the altcoinstalks forum.
Members rank high because they contribute to the forum and are widely recognized, it is not fair to allow beginners to join the altcoinstalks forum with high rankings.
hello
we are just experimenting, we will see the effects, but for now i don't see reasons for beginners to be worried
also we see the membership a matter of experience rather than how long having been on this forum or that
78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 19, 2020, 09:45:14 AM
Ah nice they made it official.
You could have done that before tho, just had to talk to the admin. They were mroe than happy to cross-over your rank there
hi
previously we did not have the possibility to increase ranks, instead we would change old accounts into the new user - done only once
i don't recall having it done more than once.
there are agency rank and bounty manager ranks for bounty managers, which grant some ranks, but i don't recall we granted increased ranks other than 1 or 2 cases, and for those cases we had to repurposed old accounts opened by me or a team member.
there was a potential hero rank, which was just a tag, without real rank increase.

The issue was the rank integrity, but with the teleported rank, things are clear, and thus poses no issue with rank integrity, as those achieving high ranks without teleport get to take positions in the forum management like mods, or even the upcoming senate and other self governing ideas ...
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New feature on AltcoinsTalks forum - you can teleport your rank from bitcointalk on: November 19, 2020, 01:12:08 AM
I'm also there and not very active. Recently I was annoyed by some high-rank members via PM after I was speculating about spammers on that forum. Quite surprised that many spammers are able to do 100 posts/day even some of them are done by their moderators. I said they're probably bots and they didn't accept it, LOL.
there are account farmers everywhere,
on altt we have some tools to detect and take some actions
we have automated badges that the spammers get, and obviously everything has consequences
however, posting too many posts does not mean they can rank up, as our system takes also many factors in consideration, a bit like btt
thus we do not necessarily go after people posting too much, as it does not really matter if they post too much or not
and we try to avoid conflicts and aggression, hence a friendly forum, or at least, the friendliest it can be ...
