But you still post shit nonetheless, what does it matter if you are posting less per day or if your english is good? Spam is spam. Funny how you bash sig spammers when your posts are 1/10 in quality.

Your posts aren't exactly the pinnacle of enlightenment, doofus. It does matter actually, because I haven't noticed threads popping up about members like me, but countless ones complaining about paid signature spammers such as yourself. Why do you deny the obvious; that you and the majority of paid signature members only post to get paid? Just look at this thread; the OP made a post about cutting down on signature spam, and almost all of the replies came from people spamming their signatures for some bit crumbs. How ironic is that?

You can keep denying the obvious, which even you yourself know to be true, or you can just admit what everyone already knows, and tell me to get lost because the admin and mods allow you to spam your paid signatures. Either way, I don't care, and I'll continue to ridicule and poke fun at the mediocre advertisements posing as actual forum posts as I please.

Damn Mr.big you sure got those sneaky sig spammers with your post. Did you check your own posts lately? If you were wearing a signature you would have been banned most likely due to your super low quality posting but i guess you feel better by throwing shit at other people. I think people is looking too much into spammers that wear signatures when there are spammers like this guy with totally worthless posts without any signature that are still here.

Oh put a sock in it. I average like 1 post per 3 days, while you average like 5. I go for months at a time without posting, and I write in legible English. Plus I don't have a paid signature. Unlike you, I have no incentive to post. If paid signatures were banned tomorrow, you and most of your ilk would likely slither away back to your fetid hovels, or your posting frequency would become like the libido of a 99 year-old man. Maybe you should spend the money you earn from your signature on some English lessons.


I don't think such idea gonna work. Naming that board "off-topic" holds a specific reason.
In my opinion theymos did very good by keeping off-topic because he is fulfilling spammers desire
That is the only place where whole spammers belong to. You can only see that place full of spams.
So, give them place. We know non-spammers won't go there.

And yes your plan of hiding signature in that section might help in Reducing spams I guess

I agree. He only have anger that's why he is posting bullshits in red color
Control your attitude mate

Lol, so you're trying to tell me that indiscernible drivel you just posted isn't spam Huh

Funny how you and the poster above you both have usernames that start with Xin. Gee, I wonder if you're related.

The only way is shutting down sig campaigns, honestly.

I agree, although I doubt this will happen. It becomes a chore having to wade through all the crap to find the posts that actually add some value to a conversation. A lot of 'members', and I use that term loosely, can't even write English properly. Just take a look at some of the posts in this thread:

If you want to get rid of spammer is contact who helding the signature campaign or his manager.
And about the rule , it should make for not posting on selected section

Maybe you should report rivoke to your campaign manager...

Its better to have a fixed rate for sig campaign per week like what ore-mine.org does, with fixed rate spammers will avoided too much bump

Did you get that bump when your momma dropped you on your head, or were you always this stupid?

Simply spammers will continue their spams whether in off-topic or elsewhere.
For example, in the other compagns that don't pay posts in the off topic section, politics... spammers will bombard game & rounds.

Don't forget the Meta section. Spammers sure like posting there too Wink

The suggestion is a good thing to reduce the spam a bit but the big step is convincing the campaign managers to not count those which their somehow firm of their rules that first implemented and if you dig a bit deeper

Oh yeah, dem managers is always their firming dem rulez an ting Cool

The main reason for so many spams is due to automated signatures and even worst if there's no limit in postings. Shorena is right. However, fixed rate campaigns does lessen the load on the manager when counting posts. They should review each participant individually and ensure that they aren't spamming and is contributing something to the discussion at the very list. I have joined many campaigns which only recruits high quality posters Shocked and it does work well.

Obviously those campaigns didn't recruit only high quality posters if they let someone like you join...

You didn't understand what shorena said. It is not the limiting of post, she is referring to the fixed rate for lower ranked accounts, people tend to spam to raise their pay rate so thus they will make a lot of post and thus that will result to spam Tongue

Also it is not the automated counting that does the problem. It is not a problem to have a bot to count the posts but I think implementing a rule that a participant must take care of the image of the campaign might lessen spamming, let's say there is a rule that if you want to get paid, you need to be sure your posts are constructive, if you want to get paid you need to take care of other participants, such reporting them if they are making spammy posts. Participants should be given a responsibility like this.

Such reporting, many WOW

Have you once imagine how this forum will look like without all the spammers making those insubstantial posting? The thing is, we want to get rid of the spammers and not the signature campaign itself. I doubt people will keep working in their postings if they are not getting paid by it (for some maybe). The forums activity benefits from the ongoing signature campaigns.

Oh the horror! What a terrible thought to imagine...

On a more serious note:

It's almost as if some of these posts were written in another language and passed through Google Translate. There's a difference between making grammatical errors here and there, and making it blatantly obvious that you really suck at English. Coupled with meaningless tripe and redundant baloney, the forum can become rather unsavoury at times, if you know what I mean.
64  Economy / Speculation / Re: Going to bed, will BTC be $500 or $300 when I wake up? on: November 05, 2015, 05:14:44 AM
More or less the same price.
65  Economy / Speculation / Re: Five digits on: November 04, 2015, 07:09:44 PM
After this "bubble" I predict btc price to crash and stabilize around 1k usd, with many people calling btc dead and selling their coins, for another re-distribution round.

I doubt many people would be calling BTC dead if it crashed and stabilized at around $1000.

i agree, i think we will see 250ish again soon

Maybe if a whale dumps a very large amount of BTC at once, although I would imagine a quick recovery in price with the current demand.
68  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't buy now! Buy on the next correction to < $350 on: November 04, 2015, 03:42:42 PM
Why not buy and sell, and buy again at < $350 then?
69  Economy / Speculation / Re: [Poll] What do you think will be the new ATH? on: November 04, 2015, 03:12:49 PM
I don't know, but $600 seems like the most reasonable option at this point.

Creative answers but no correct one so far.

They used ants instead of a honeybadger.



This is very close in the concept.. but no cigar

Hmm, maybe they used the wrong type of animal?



Although, I much prefer the honey badger Smiley

The OP is clickbait so he can collect affiliate commission on all your amazon purchases over the next 3 days. That's also why its a newbie account so he doesn't have to make the 0.5btc payout once he's done



You can tip me for exposing the truth here: 1NmVuA5gSFyZTjGDnA5ZADC1YNciP4nXbU

Lol, I think you nailed it!
72  Economy / Speculation / Re: $700 by Nov 17? on: November 03, 2015, 12:27:38 AM
We reached $350 (actually $360, then fell back) today.  I think price will double in the next 14 days. 

You should invest your life savings today then. You'll be twice as wealthy in 14 days Cheesy

Nothing is wrong with the cover.

Thanks Gentleman and Mickey. I appreciate your point GM that it may not be undervalued. But for the sake of argument, we will assume it is.

So if the speculators massively outweigh users at the moment (see Blawpaw below), Bitcoin price inertia is inevitable. Correct?

Therefore, a massive shift in use is required. A seismic event/thinking must be applied to move from speculation to use.

However, it just seems that it is a chicken and egg scenario, .... leading back to my original question. Why would people ever use it if the current belief, (by the majority of Bitcoiners), seems to be that it is undervalued.

Any other input would be great. Thanks.

Why not use it if I got it? Especially if the price has gone up since I first bought some BTC. I've bought things with BTC before only to have the price spring upwards after my purchase and vice versa. Not all of us are into BTC hoping to get rich.  Some of us like the technology and the freedom it offers from the usurious bloodsucking banking system.

Only a few coins I would see that aren't going to disappear and they are : Litecoin, dash, Peercoin, NXT and yes it seems they are tied to Bitcoin currently still.

Are those the coins you happen to hold by any chance?
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The altcoins have started moving.. on: October 30, 2015, 03:26:32 PM
This entire run they haven't moved... any opinions on if this will do anything to the BTC price?

The usual cycle, first weak hands sell to get as much BTC as possible, then, when BTC price increases enough, alts start getting pumped cause ordinary people cannot afford BTC and buy the next best thing. Buy high volume alts, you ll profit on them within a year.
Yup, this happened during the boom in 2013. Anyone else remember the $15+ Litecoins? hahaha

Litecoin was more than $30 around that time.
If this thing repeats, and I believe it will, there is still much room for Litecoin too increase.


LTC hit almost $50 in 2013. I doubt we'll ever see that again though. There early adopters who were pumping LTC back in the day have already cashed out. Plus, it doesn't have anything innovative to offer over BTC.
77  Economy / Speculation / Re: Official Bitcoin Price Prediction for Dec 31, 2015 on: October 30, 2015, 03:15:28 PM
If the current trend of the past 2 weeks continues, then we may hit $500+ by the year's end, although I doubt that'll happen until 2016.

If you look at how Huobi is imitating MtGox then it might very well be possible. Huobi exchange price is $360 at the moment!! $30 higher than all other exchanges!! This is just insane.

Reminds me of 2013, when Gox was leading the other exchanges up into the stratosphere. Hopefully we don't run into any 'mechanical failures' this time around Cheesy

The price was very volatile in 2013, with drastic price changes in a matter of minutes sometimes. Like I remember selling BTC at $150 and rebuying at $80 the next day kind of volatility. It would be pretty fun if we see that kind of activity again.
