The world has seen two wars with each being called a war to end all wars during its bloody days. On close examination one can observe that without the stockpiling of weapons by the belligerents these wars would never have happened though they were carried out with peaceful intentions which we all know how that turned out. Are we not facing the same problem again? We sit back and watch our countries have bunkers filled with nukes all in a bid to protect our peace. Is this pretence not a preparation for a third war to end all wars?

The world has seen many, to many wars in the human history.
We can freely say that numerous wars and conflicts slowed down the development of the human race.
Everyone starts the war to win and destroy the opponent so there is no peaceful intentions here (unless we believe in statements by politicians lol).
We don't know if and when third world war my happen but such war would completely destroy our civilization and would not be a winner.
So, better avoid any such global conflict in the future or we will see the end of our world.

BTW, if someone always keeps having leftover source merits and not using them up try venturing into other sections once in a while, sometimes interesting threads/posts/discussions can be found.
I would love to be able to distribute more merits amongst the local sections, as I feel they are in general under merited. However, it is incredibly time consuming (and rather headache inducing) to translate entire threads or boards with a machine translator and work through them trying to find a good post or two. I was following cabalism13's thread on unmerited Filipino posts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5137597.0), but unfortunately it's not been updated in a while. Does anyone know of any other similar threads in other languages?

In Croatian section of the forum I started this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4265795.0
Basically, all Croatian users can report there good quality posts, which they wrote or someone else, and others can reward such good posts with merits.
I'm only merit source in Croatian section at the moment and often don't have enough merits for everybody so any additional merit source is very appreciated.
6083  Other / Meta / Re: Negative Trust for innocent newbies who have no knowledge yet in the forum on: July 13, 2019, 02:33:53 PM
This is personal issue between this user and you.
There is no meaning to ask admin for help or post here.
Nobody here can do anything for you.
As suggested, join discussion in the reputation thread and explain your point.
I wish you luck but you will have to explain a lot there.

Više manje sve poznate stvari ali si ih jako lijepo objedionio u jednom postu i nadam se da će pomoći nekom budećem trejderu. Za takve bi dodao samo jednu opasku. Ovako kada čitate crno na bijelo sve ovo napisano vam se čini vjerojatno dosta logično i kao da nije teško usvojiti i stvarno nije. Problem je disciplina. Kada jednom odredite svoj plan trgovanja držite ga se i ne mjenjajte u hodu bez da imate jako dobar razlog i držite neki normalni tempo, ne treba vam 20 trejdova svaki dan  Grin

Osim discipline rekao bih da je problem i kontrolirati emocije tj. zaustaviti ''euforiju'' kada netko nakon par velikih dobitaka misli da je ''nezaustavljiv'' i da sve može.
Ljudi se tada ''zaigraju'' i ne znaju kada trebaju ''stati na loptu'' i hladno procjeniti situaciju.

Got a bet on Serena, I think she will win tomorrow she is too strong  Grin.

Federer and Serena kings are back at Wimbledon.

WOW what a game, incredible match!
I don't remember when someone last time won Serena so convincingly.
Serena didn't have any chance.
6:2 and 6:2 can you believe it?
6087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: July 13, 2019, 01:12:28 PM
Nadal doesen't look so good at the moment. He is loosing 2:1 in sets and break down in forth. Now he needs some exceptional tennis to turn this around but I don't think Federer will alow him an openning.

We should have a great final on sunday. Personally I am glad Federer will probably be in it. It is something special to see him play on grass.
I thought Nadal has the momentum, he made it 1:1 and it was a beautiful second set comeback. But Roger is the king of this court and eventually won, but it is an amazing display from two of the best players. I think Roger will win against Djoker in the finals.
It was a big match against Nadal, so I think Federer will be too much exhausted for the final of tomorrow. Federer is old now.

Of course Djokovic has some youthfulness compared to Federer. The two were the favorite to reach the finals. And Djokovic have a better record against Federer while competing in final. Both of these stars are fit and we could expect a competing and wonderful finals.

I don't think that Federer was favorite against Nadal.
Nadal was very close to bring match in the fifth set and in that case I think that Nadal would turn the match to his advantage.
Federer already said after match that he is tired and I'm not sure how much he can recover until Sunday.
Djokovic is obvious favorite on Sunday but we shouldn't underestimated Federer.

Yes, Federer vs. Djokovic, another classic Smiley
Federer was better today but on the end both of them played great.
What a great final we can expect on Sunday! Smiley
Can't wait to watch!
6091  Other / Off-topic / Re: How i learn english on: July 12, 2019, 03:12:51 PM
I learned English in school but couldn't talk or understand much English.
Only when I went to live 1 year in America and didn't have choice but to talk and think only in one language, English, I finally learned English .)
So, there is no secret here but you have to practice and talk all the time.
6092  Other / Off-topic / Re: What kind of life do you think is perfect? on: July 12, 2019, 03:10:28 PM
When we have balance, in internal and external life.
For loving we must have money in order to pay bills, food, car etc. but we need also something internal, what can give us joy, love, fulfillment, purpose of life etc.
Many people could find and reach internal or external goal in their life but just a few could achieve balance in their life.

 
6093  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who do you think will win the 2020 election? on: July 12, 2019, 03:05:10 PM
Trump seems really unhealthy, not sure if he will even live that long.

My bet is on Yang because of the whole UBI angle.

Unhealthy? He looks younger than all the other candidates. That Biden guy looks extremely sleepy and 'low energy' as Trump calls them. No one of them seem to have any chance, in my opinion. I would not vote for any of them regardless of their political party.

I agree with you.
Democrats have to many candidates for the presidential election, around 20 if I remember well.
I think they will be exhausting each other in an intra-party war while Trump will watch it quietly and enjoy it.
They will get tired from pre election conflicts and I'm not sure how much energy and power they will have left to fight with Trump, specially ''sleepy'' Joe Smiley

 
6094  Economy / Speculation / Re: Question of the day: What is your price prediction for bitcoin ? on: July 12, 2019, 02:55:36 PM
I am pretty sure that Bitcoin will arrive 100k by the end of November and then crash again around 20-30k by February. Next Bull run to 1M.

Do you have any technical and fundamental analysis for such an assessment?
If not, than this is just your wish or prediction but not based on the real facts.
I predict and wish the slow growth of Bitcoin values ​​by the end of the year which is much more sustainable than the sharp price changes in the market.
I don't think that btc price will reach 100k in next 2-3 years.
6095  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is crypto industry manipulated? How bad is it? on: July 12, 2019, 02:51:09 PM
In any market we have manipulation, stock market, Forex etc.
Even large banks were caught in fraud on the stock market.
Crypto market is not regulated, have no control from the government so situation is even worse.
For example, we've seen a lot of big jumps in the price of bitcoins and I'm sure that market manipulation is behind.
It's nothing we can do it about it.

6096  Other / Meta / Re: How can i get Merit? on: July 12, 2019, 02:36:19 PM
I am new in Bitcointalk and i can see that most of power users have high Merit, so how can i get it, it`s written in the website they someone should transfer it to me, is it applicable?

Thanks in Advance.

Just write good quality content, something what can benefit others.
In our local Croatian section, we even have thread where users can report good quality posts so that merit source members can see it and reward.
I sew such threads also on other parts of the forum. 
6097  Other / Meta / Re: Why bitcointalk.org is so popular? on: July 12, 2019, 02:33:25 PM
I'm sorry to say it but probably 85-90% of the traffic is because of greed.
All those signature campaigns, giveaways, airdrops some sort of "free money", attract more and more people who have come here to "work hard" and make as more as possible.
I don't disagree that greed is a serious problem.

I think the signature campaigns, giveaways, airdrops, and other similar forms of "free money" happen on this forum because of the traffic it receives, and its popularity. It might be that there is a never ending cycle of high traffic causing "free money" opportunities, causing higher traffic, causing more "free money" opportunities, and so on.

Bitcointalk is so famous in the btc community also because of many different ways to learn about btc and crypto.
Many users like forum because of free ways to earn bitcoin or altcoins, or because of opportunity to be paid for something they do any way, writing on this forum.
In such ways this forum becomes more popular, more users coming, more traffic, more advertisers etc.
I don't see anything wrong here, everybody wins Smiley
6098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: July 12, 2019, 02:27:45 PM
Djokovic have some problems with Agut but he will win and play in ''another classic'' on Sunday with Nadal or Federer.
Djokovic was very good also in Roland Garros this year but didn't have luck in the match with Thiem.
I'm sure that Nadal would have much more difficulty in the final match with Djokovic than with Thiem.
Any way, I feel nobody can stop Djokovic here, on Wimbledon.
It's his year, definitely.
6099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Cup Of Nations 2019 - Discussion Thread on: July 12, 2019, 02:16:07 PM
That could be a good choice and a bad one because, based on their games played during the group stages Madagascar's team did well and they where able to beat Nigerians team down, for me in will vouch for Madagascar's.
The match just ended and Tunisia won 3-0

I think a lot of neutral observers had sympathy for Madagascar.
They do not have a serious soccer league or players and in their first appearance they have come so far.
This was a football fairy for them and perhaps the beginning of a serious and strong national team.
Now, I feel that Senegal will win Africa cup.
6100  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: July 11, 2019, 07:13:59 PM
Serena won again and now she is just 2 steps away from the record- 24th Grand Slam won in the career.
I feel that only Halep can stop her now.
What do you think?




First Halep needs to get passed Elina Svitolina who has been in top form this tournament. I do think that Halep could be the one to knock off Serena Williams but every time it looks like Halep is going to beat her she ends up losing and as we know Serena is very good on grass so if they both make the final it will be a great match.





As I said, Serena vs. Halep in final Smiley
1 or 2 years ago I will be sure almost 100 % that Serena will beat Halep but now, after Halep won her first Grand Slam and got more experience in many finals, and became more stable and mature, I think chances are maybe 60/40 for Serena to win.
Serena will be under big pressure to finally win and make new record in the number of grand slams won, and also don't forget that she lost last a few ''big'' finals.
