Do you have any program that routinely "cleans" your computer ?
If so , disable it temporarily and check if the problem persists.

Slot machines have huge house edges , especially the shiniest ones.
Sorry , but I'd rather take my chances on Primedice , where I can be sure that it is not rigged and have a tiny house edge , rather than a 10+% house edge slots.

If you were playing in a poker tournament though , it would be a different story...

No computer is good for mining.

You can attach ASICs to it if you are interested , but your computer will wear out before it earns you anything.

Computers are not good for mining anything except extremely new cryptocurrencies , with new PoW systems.

A lot of campaigns are very stable.
Bitmixer has minimal payments , so I don't see them shutting theirs down anytime soon , the same can be said for Bitcoin-Scratchticket and 777coin.
Most of the closed campaigns like Luckybit have chosen number of participants based on their need , so it is unlikely they will shut down.

Primedice seems the least stable in my mind, with upto 0.48 BTC per person per month and a huge amount of participants.
But they have a reputation for being the longest lived campaign , so it is unlikely they will shut it down. (I'd see further reductions soon though)

I really wouldn't use Coinbase Vault.

I'd suggest using your own cold wallet , where you know the security of your coins instead of just being assured by a third party.
Managing a paper wallet is really easy and holding a brain wallet is even easier.

1) Establish a baseline price. How much is the minimum you are willing to go for ? 0.5 BTC ? 1 BTC ? 5 BTC ?

2) Find a suitable way to ensure that you shall continue posting for as long as necessary. One example could be that the buyer could keep the funds with an escrow and the escrow would give you 10% for every 150 posts you make , ensuring you get the full amount in around a year (1500 posts)

Alternatively , if the buyer is trusted , he can give you the amount slowly over time instead of using an escrow.

I see no scenario in which you can get a lump sum payment , unless you had a lot of trust.

Basically , you need to post once ever 360 seconds for the first few weeks.
By the time you reach Jr. Member , you will only occasionally blocked , and once you finally reach Member, you will not notice it unless you spam.

I'd suggest you simply copy each message before posting and try again after some time whenever you fail to post.
The transition will happen naturally , you don't need to really look at all the formulae.

Another benefit other than stopping spambots is that it teaches Newbies to post less often.

Well , if you feel that having unwatch would remove "Show New Replies" feedback would be better , you could suggest it on the Meta section to discuss the new forum software.

Honestly, I never check those sections as I lurk on the forums a lot. I check Off-topic , Services , Economics and Meta around 12-14 hours a day.
If any post of mine gets bumped, I notice it as soon as that happens

The watchlist seems like the best place, as you would be able to opt-in selectively instead of having to opt-out every time.

I use Bitcoin for digital purchases.
I can't really ship anything , because the shipping fees mostly outweigh the item cost.

My digital purchases end up being pretty small though.

So my answer would be hoarding , with only small purchases.
No trade for Fiat in either direction though.

Predicting the value Bitcoin is the worst way to waste your time.

Most of the people here spending their time on the forums believe that the value of Bitcoin will rise and will be worth something in the long run. However , short term speculation is useless.

The price of a single bitcoin depends mainly on what happens to Bitcoin businesses.

Unless you are John Donahoe and you decide that from tomorrow Paypal is going to accept Bitcoin , or any other huge business deciding to accept Bitcoin , you have no power in prediction.

You may flaunt your ability to predict the value of other commodities , but Bitcoin is much more volatile and even more heavily affected by public perception.

I believe that Bitcoin will stay at 650$ for as long as it takes for either , a big business to accept Bitcoin or a huge spike in awareness.

Are there any other effects of being whitelisted , other than a reduced posting cooldown ?

A moderator bestowed custom privileges could be useful.
EG :- An established member wishes to make a new official account for their site , they could have the same posting cooldown as their main account would have and also be able to put a link to their site in the signature immediately.

I don't see how it is more annoying than a smartphone or a MP3 player.
It may be a bit harder to notice at first , but soon everyone will know when someone is not paying attention and looking at their Google glass.

Voice controls are one of the most annoying things as I don't want to be in a bus or train with everyone yelling out things to their phone. This provides an effective solution to make the Google glass a more usable product in public.

There is nothing like supposed to work or not supposed to work.
It is all on luck

You may get a 999x on your first LuckyBit red or may roll a million coins without getting a 999x
The method you use doesn't affect anything

Do you accept payment via Paypal ?
How much Bitcoin could I get for around 70$ PayPal ?

That's news to me.
I generally know Stunna as being a rather reasonable person.


Stunna has said that it needs validity and to have proper references.
It would be great if someone with first hand experience with this situation could enlighten us , as I'm pretty sure that Stunna wouldn't withhold payment needlessly.

There is nothing like "wrong" trust.

It literally means that that person does not trust you !

If I know you as a reliable user , with a lot of trust on the forums , if you sell your account ,  I will be very very suspicious.
Why ?
Because it is very likely that a scammer has bought your account , to scam and you should not be trusted.

You cannot blame anyone for not trusting you.
DefaultTrust is broken in this way , but if you manually set your trust list , you will only see trust ratings from people who you yourself trust. If you trust a person , you should expect the people they trust to be trustworthy.

On the other hand , any good trader knows to check each and every trust rating and will first see why you are untrusted before jumping to conclusions. If you have wrongly got negative trust , you should contact the person who put the negative trust and explain your case. Secondly , even the trader (or in this case the signature campaign owner) should be made aware of the situation. If the negative rating is baseless , they will understand.

I uploaded a video once... I got 60 views in a day , but I took it down because it was.... kinda taken without consent of people in it....

Anyways, it seems rather efficient , but you would need to find a way to get viewers well. You would need to target a specific , niche audience that you could maintain and interest indefinitely.

The thing you said about your friend with 43 videos and 120 views each making 14$ :-
That becomes around 0.33$ per video , around 2.7$ per thousand views.

If each video takes you two hours to make , you should expect atleast 7,000 views each for it to be worth more than working a bit above minimum wage.

For you to have a nice looking 100k salary off youtube videos , you would need to create around a hundred thousand views daily.

TLDR; Its not really likely that youtubing will make you a lot of money , but if you do something that interests you and you want to share it , it may just pay off

He won the silkroad seized coins auction , they had to contact him !
They used their message scrambler software to make it look like it came from China , so that if you intercepted it you would not find out how to get the Bitcoins !

OP , please open it and share some of the Bitcoins with us ?

In my opinion most branded windows laptops or computers come with a lot of bloatware.

This won't harm you in the short term , but they will slow down your computer needlessly in the long run.

It is best to delete all the bloatware (Basically , useless software included with your computer when you take it out of the box) when you buy a new laptop , as it gets harder to do it later without removing useful programs.

A handy guide I'd suggest is this : http://www.maximumpc.com/article/howtos/howto_get_rid_bloatware_your_new_laptop
A word of warning, use it only if you just bought your laptop and didn't install anything yet.

It doesn't really matter whether you take the Toshiba or the Lenovo , they will be a fraction of their real speed with bloatware (But I personally think the Toshiba looks better).

Another viable option is to get laptops with lesser or no bloatware , but they are harder to find.
Quick googling leads to quite a few lists like this : http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2329276,00.asp

TLDR; The Toshiba is better , but be sure to remove bloatware or go for another bloatware free laptop

Quite honestly , I could make 15 posts per hour.
I would need around 1 minute to read the OP and ignore the rest of the thread and I could easily formulate a reply in another 1-2 minutes , leading to 20-30 posts per hour.

But the fact is that if you spend time reading each and every reply , there is a great chance that someone has already asked what you have asked or brought up the point you were going to. You then end up posting once every few threads that you read , probably once every 3-6.

On the other hand , a person who owns a Marketplace thread , maybe a service , a goods sale thread or a gambling thread would definitely be expected to have over 15 posts per hour. They would need to answer each and every question by a potential client , regardless of whether it has been covered before or whether it is silly and doesn't really warrant a post.

TLDR ; 15-25 posts per hour can be non-spammy, but only in rare cases. The first of which I could think of was owner of a sales / service thread.
