Few ideas.
1) Identifiable codes/marks/IDs on the unit? Could ask Avalon if they'd have any record of such?
2) Clarify the position of ownership if someone discovers they've bought a stolen unit. By law it would be returned to you and they'd be out of pocket, so you'll need to give them a real incentive to report it [other than legal]. Sucks but its the truth. Ie you'll make sure they wont be out of pocket
3) Your mining details. When someone plugs the unit in, surely it will mine for a few seconds to your account, sending a few packets and location. Although I guess they could config offline first.
4) Get in contact with Avalon. They may have other methods of tracking or identifying the unit even we don't know about yet.

They'd be able to charge much more. Both bitfury and KNC are future preorders with no proof. He is saying they'd be in stock like erupter blades when sold, if sold, if made, if created.

Still checking my order page daily waiting to see something other than Processing  . Why are you even mining, you have what, about 1TH of mining power to pay for the pool and hookers?  Nay be greedy now. |

No, greaterninja is a generalist scumbag. Save yourselves time and add him to your ignore list so his failed attempts at group buys don't spam your page.

Guys come on. Yifu is busy enough as it is yet you waste his time asking him questions that have been answered elsewhere a 100x? Let the man breathe and do your homework...

Look for GPU memory heatsinks, the individual ones. They'd be perfect size.

I trade a lot and so its vitally important. And although the trust system should be what is used by buyers, 100% its not. Every time I get "I see you're a hero member, I trust you", NOT because I have +250 risked in trust. No buyer actually cares about trust at the moment.
All this does is give the old members doing escrow more money.
You realize you were basically "gaming" the system, right? You registered less than 3 months ago and yet, because of your post count, you earned a Hero tag and newbies were placing more confidence in you than they should have. The new system may not be the best idea but your arguments are hurting your case more than helping it. Was the trust right? Yes. Have I scammed anyone? No. As I've said 10x already, carpet bombing is not a solution. |

Bump
I feel like I should hop in here and he'll SCAM, tell you that you will never get ROI and generally question the entire sale. But hey Dogie, what kind of person would do that..right? What on earth... well thats some more scum for the ignore list. i me not trashing but reduce your price if you want to sell them .
Already sold. If you can't afford them, they're not for you. |

If I post 1 message per fortnight for the next year, I'll get hero. That incentive to contribute.
If your only reason for posting is for a title, then you're probably part of the problem. No of course its not, but I'm just pointing out the ridiculousness of the new system; its not representing anything but a random formula that correlates to NOTHING. If I post 1 message per fortnight for the next year, I'll get hero. That incentive to contribute.
I don't get why some of you are so concerned about ranks. I really don't give a sh*t about them. Anyhow, I do acknowledge that many members *do* look at ranks, and for them is much better to have this system. Seriously, if you really care about your rank because you conduct business in here, do you think it's fair that a spammer registered 2 weeks ago has the same rank as a member active in these forums for the last 2 years? I get you are upset because you were "demoted" (LOL) from hero member to a lower rank, but think clearly: if you want to build trust just use the trust system, that's why it's there. You can be a Jr. Member and be trusted because of many successful transactions, so this change shouldn't do any harm to your businesses in here. Now the "ranks" are more accurate, because they represent the seniority of members. And seniority is not achieved by short-term spamming, is achieved by consistent activity over time. I trade a lot and so its vitally important. And although the trust system should be what is used by buyers, 100% its not. Every time I get "I see you're a hero member, I trust you", NOT because I have +250 risked in trust. No buyer actually cares about trust at the moment. All this does is give the old members doing escrow more money. Trust is built with time. People trusting you just for being a "hero" member was a flawed system, and its been addressed. So you think is fair for a spammer registered 2 weeks ago to be able to "avoid" escrow because it has a high post count? That's ridiculous, and BTW you shouldn't base who you trust or not based on their rank, that's ridiculous - and if we want to avoid scams on these forums, nobody should decide who they trust based on post count. I would say that you are angry because you feel that this change is making your businesses a little more difficult - just look at the big picture, think about the forum as a whole, this will give spammers less incentives to spam, and it will make scammer's life more difficult. It's a good change. People will get used to it and will start using "ranks" for seniority, while they will start to use "trust" for considering who they transact with. Much better IMO. No of course its not, but its obvious when someone is spamming for rank. There is another thread in meta with people reporting spammers and them being deleted. I don't decide what buyers use to decide if sellers are trustworthy or not, they do. This is such a dumb change, you're still not getting it. They've 'solved' the problem of spammers by destroying it for EVERYONE, not just spammers. People won't start using trust otherwise they would have already. Buyers decide what they use. |

I feel that in the long term it will be a gain for all of us as the accounts get harder to gain seniority and in this way it helps the accounts gain more money
Why do people keep repeating this! It is EASIER than before because all you do is create an account, do 7 posts a week and you gain hero status by WAITING. Not by doing anything, not by being credible, but by WAITING. And by that virtue, EVERYONE will get promoted to hero. |

I will sell this account to the highest bidder. Name: Al the Alpaca
Posts: 128
Activity: 128
Position: Full Member
Date Registered: July 09, 2012, 01:25:01 AM I have 6x the posts, but because he has an older account which he has actually been very inactive on... = higher activity. The senses, they burn. |

I like it, the old way provided incentive for people to spam, and spammers can be difficult to moderate, and time consuming.
Why is this so hard to understand... it doesn't prevent spammers at all. Now all you do is create 10 accounts, log in to each one once a week, reply to 14 topics. Wait a while, oh look boom 10 hero accounts which are much harder to identify as fakes, without the need to spam. Problem? It isn't about preventing spammers, it's about removing the incentive for people to spam in the first place. Now there's less reason for people to make new accounts and spam their way to a thousand posts in a week or two. Also results in less need for moderation, which is a good thing for everyone. We can't stop people from making fake accounts in order to scam, but we can stop them from spamming hundrends/thousands of posts for status. You've not killed the spammers, you've killed everything within a 20 mile radius. Carpet bombing ftw. |

Thank you
So now you need to be active for:
- more than a year to be hero 7 Months
- more than six months to be senior 3.5 Months
- more than one month to be full member
I really like that
Fixed. ...Need 400 points for hero. So min 400 posts and 28.6 time periods. Each time period is TWO weeks, so it is ~14 months for hero. At this rate in 14 months I'll have 4-5k posts. |

Such a huge, huge step back. All we needed was more community reporting spamming and more moderation.
Instead we just get a random system that essentially says "old account or scammer, gg".

I like the new system. No more post count stacking!
I do too. I think it's funny. Now can you still completely bypass the system by buying hero membership? Yep. And this doesn't fix the problem of people illegitimately raising post count, all it does is delay when they come of age and punish legitimate members like me along with them. And yes, the only solution for me to prove my worthiness (even if I'm a scammer) is to donate. 10btc is probably a small price to pay when the rewards for a scammer are 100+ in one transaction. |
