Small articles are not an issue, so long as they are not stolen material and are not gibberish. The problem with the one linked above is that it is not his material to be taking credit for, yet he is trying to earn money off it.

Edit: just noticed the first question as well. No, you can't take their material, edit it and claim it as collated. Collated is for when you write an article based on another one, with quotes and such (SPORADICALLY). Basically it's the same rule as plagiarism. If it's plagiarism, it's wrong.

Ok, thank you for the clarification.  Now onto more writing!  Smiley

Not a problem. As a heads-up, if you have any future questions you can send me a PM anytime. The same goes to anyone else who reads this (most already know, as I get a lot of PM's as it is, lol).

Ok I am starting to get rather pissed off here and usually I don't get angry easily but more and more devtome seems to be paying out all the dvc to writers and the more i look the more there is not original content on there but it is being claimed as.

Here is a clear cut example...

User makalu has posted on his userpage : http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=wiki:user:makalu
Original articles on a number of pages.

The one I was particularly interested in was of course the listing about ASCMDVCPT of which I help do the admin work for and have direct involement in... yet I see that the article http://www.devtome.com/doku.php?id=ascmdvcpt is just a copy paste of the listing I helped write that is on cryptostocks https://cryptostocks.com/securities/39

hey it only small articles i know but nothing has been added in terms of better content, and the work is NOT original

Either the admins have missed this or they are not doing their job properly... or the users are unaware of the difference between original content and collated content and NOT ALLOWED copy paste content. Or a combination of it all...

Admins responsible for checking content please respond to this post before Unthinkingbit does as that will just show to me that you are not doing the job required of you.  I have PM'd the 3 admins so they know about this post.

If I combined all of his small ebook articles into a larger one and edited it, would that qualify as Collated?
By the way, I've been making small (< 1000 words) articles, is that OK?

Thank you!

Yup, understood.
What I ended up sometimes doing was I grabbed the Bitcoin-QT client with the Coin Control mod by cozz, and used it to manually select the inputs. Because in the other client I use, blockchain.info's wallet, when you have 1 large unspent output, and a few hundred unspent outputs, and you want to send a transaction that uses the 1 large unspent output and a handful of the small unspent outputs as inputs, it'll try to include ALL the other small unspent outputs in the transaction too. No idea why Tongue

Transactions always send the oldest coins first, unless manually told otherwise. Older transactions have higher priority, so that's why it works like this. The "age" is based on the average, so if you have a ton of year old dust transactions and one brand new 1 BTC transaction and you send all of them at once, your "age" is very small since the latest transaction is factored in. Ex:

You got 1 BTC a week ago. Age = 7 days.
You got 1 BTC today. Age = 0 days.
You send a 2 BTC transaction. Your coin age is 3.5 days.

On the other hand...

You got 1 BTC a week ago. Age = 7 days.
You got 6 BTC today. Age = 0 days.
You send 7 BTC in a transaction. Age = 1 day.

I just tried this and nothing happens (with many outputs).

Private key 5KJvsngHeMpm884wtkJNzQGaCErckhHJBGFsvd3VyK5qMZXj3hS

Isn't that the "correct horse battery staple" brain wallet?

Yes, and is has MANY unspent dust outputs.

LOL, I'm trying to sweep it too XD

The trick here is to do this:

Have at least 0.01 BTC you can use (the more you have, the better). Send it to the wallet where you are getting tons of dust at.
Every 60 transactions or so (you can do this at as few as you want, but 60 should be fine) send the entire balance to a new address. This will consolidate your dust, and because the total amount of output will be above 0.01 BTC, you can do it without a fee.

You can do this as often as you need and it will allow you to avoid any types of fees. Having more than 0.01 BTC is helpful because it increases your "priority" on the network, but 0.01 is fine as well. Based on my own trials, when I do this with 60 or so transactions and zero fees it will take around 12 hours or so to get confirmed, but that's not an issue since all I am doing is compacting dust anyways.

With how many unspent you have, this may not work as well. The best plan is to utilize this method from the get-go.

Don't worry, I'm used to doing this XD But I heard somewhere that if you're not going to be using your Bitcoins for a while, then you might as well let the dust rest there for a while and wait for the priority to build so that whenever you actually have to use your Bitcoins, you can just consolidate them into one no-fee but high-priority transaction.

You will always pay a fee if the transaction size is above 10kb, regardless of how much you are sending or how old the funds are. That is what you want to avoid (and is why I made my suggestion -- it ensures that you are keeping your transactions small enough to fit below the 10k threshold). If you have 11kb worth of transactions (I think this is around 80?), even if every input was for 100k BTC and you were outputting a single transaction of 8 million BTC, you would be forced to pay the fee because of the transaction size.

Something's off though. It shows that difficulty is still rising, but it also shows that the network hash rate is dropping. Along with this, it also claims the pool's hash rate is higher than that of the entire network.

Network: 367.060 MH/s
Pool: 439.202 MH/s
7808  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Growthcoin - GRW | PoW/PoS - First Announced in Altcointalk.co.uk on: August 03, 2013, 04:00:38 AM
Many people come into GrowthCoin, the whole network hash speed is 500MH/s now.

Definitely. So after 5 days the PoS should start showing up? Does anything need to be done in order to take part in that?

And what's your next plan for giving the coins value? Smiley
7809  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Growthcoin - GRW | PoW/PoS - First Announced in Altcointalk.co.uk on: August 03, 2013, 03:01:26 AM
High interests in this coin...maybe because of high annual interest?

{
    "blocks" : 3473,
    "currentblocksize" : 1000,
    "currentblocktx" : 0,
    "difficulty" : 1.36904886,
    "errors" : "",
    "generate" : false,
    "genproclimit" : -1,
    "hashespersec" : 0,
    "networkhashps" : 123963881,
    "pooledtx" : 0,
    "testnet" : false
}


Probably but 100% APR on 0 value is still 0, lol. We need information on what the point is behind the coin. Where is the value going to come from? What is being done to market this?

smeagol, if you ever need help on formatting, just PM me. I looked at two of the articles and they look great. I think ranlo hooked you up then.



His formatting was already spot-on. I just went through and verified with him that everything was on the up-and-up, Smiley. FWIW, he has great topics as well!
7812  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [DVC]DevCoin - Official Thread - Moderated on: August 02, 2013, 11:11:10 PM
This is off topic but I'm a new devtome writer and I was just wondering if somebody could look over some of my articles and see if they are "devtome-worthy".  I looked at some of the syntax pages and followed normal wikipedia syntax but I'm just trying to make sure!  Smiley

As a heads-up, I do have experience with things like press releases and similar documents. I can also help go through business proposals (whether it is for releasing a bond/stock or an actual business) to clear up any errors or unclear statements! For things like that, I am also willing to accept part equity or shares if you would rather go that route instead of paying directly.

Update! DevFaucet has been lowered down to a 3 hour cooldown! Also moved it towards the beginning of the list since it is an Inputs.io faucet and I felt it's best to leave them as a group.
7818  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: August 01, 2013, 03:17:50 PM
why?

we are mining a low diff coin and the rejection Mh has gone upto 100, that 100Mh that isnt finding blocks.....

The reason for the rejects isn't that the network diff is low. It's because the block rate is high. The faster blocks come in, the more likely it is that your shares will be rejected due to a block being found before you.

Edit: To add to this, if someone in the pool finds a share before you, it will not invalidate any of your shares, unless his share also happened to be a block.

I think the confusion is this....

You said at the current rate, a 500 KH/s system should get a share every minute or so (based on 33s on 1 MH/s). Let's assume that the blocks are at a rate of 30s.

There is a high reject rate because a lot of the time, we are working on a share that will take longer to get than it does to find the block (from a faster system).

Reducing the difficulty to 1/4 would lower the "share" estimated time to 15s, or 1/2 the time to find a block, therefore many more legitimate shares should be submitted, which would also increase the chances of finding blocks.

I think this is where we're confused; the math doesn't add up for why 512 vs 128 (for example) would be the same.

Up! Just to clarify as well, payments can be made in any of the currencies in the OP, but I may also accept others as well (throw over an offer and we'll go from there). Also, I will accept multiple payment methods (ex. if you have BTC and WDC I will accept partial payments of both).
