On the other hand, I think a member like yourself could have conducted this investigation, you'd not have to worry about point 1 and 2. Maybe point 3, depending how many people actually care.

What's the end result you hope to achieve, and how is it actionable by any of us? Negative trust for merit giving? If not that, then what?

I sent this to LoyceV on April 05 2023. If anyone doubts it, ask him.

If LoyceV doesn't care, then why should we?

It spans 800+ merits and that is just involving what's been given to one user. Without these merits, he'd be a Hero member, and at the point of legendary...he wouldn't even be a senior member. Again, this does not include the other members who are a part of this "gang".

I don't know who you're talking about here, and frankly I don't care, but if whoever was giving them merits found their contributions to the forum to be valuable, then they are using merits in exactly the way they were intended.

I don't think there's a need to be condescending, you're capable of seeing it for yourself, it almost seems like you are choosing not to. Either way, you've made your position clear. So how about from now forward we leave this here and let third parties (people who have not already posted in this thread) give their opinion?

When an attack is just for the sake of harming reputation, it should receive the amount of respect it deserves, which is zero. I don't care about perceived transgressions regarding merits, especially when they come accounts without a reputation. The only time it bugs me is when alt accounts try to leech merits out of sources in the WO thread, but even then I'm not going to conduct an "investigation" into it. Really the main person you should attempt to appeal to is theymos, as he is the one who assigns merit sources.

You think you can tell people what to do and they'll listen. They won't, as you don't really have a reputation here. You obviously still have a lot to learn about the way the forum works.

Hi Loyce, I have a question for you: I could have sworn seeing a version of your post history cache by user where deleted posts are in strikethrough with the word "Deleted!" next to them... How do you we find this on your website? Does it still exist or is my mind playing tricks on me?
84  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: McDonald's Bitcoin payment at El Salvador are broken, users complain on: June 19, 2024, 02:44:41 AM
Agreed. That's why McDonald's should accept Dogecoin as a kiosk option (still to slow for an at-the-counter option).

McDonald's could seriously help their branding by accepting $DOGE.

As for El Salvador, its a shame their populist president got conned by some Twitter influencers for the sake of pumping Bitcoin... An unfortunate situation. But at least they are providing lessons that LN-friendly businesses/payment processors can learn from.

Not sure why, but when I saw QS name I immediately thought of Cryptohunter, I think it was 2019 or so when the two of you were the shining stars in the reputation and meta boards, I am not sure how other people remember that era, but it was indeed a lot of fun, certainly better than today's lack of drama. Cheesy

Oh, old good times Smiley. Then I thought that forum would be better place without such drama, but now I kinda miss these things.

In retrospect, its crazy how wrapped up in the drama here I used to be, arguing non-stop with cryptohunter and TECSHARE about matters that are in hindsight, extremely trivial & petty. Then there was Lauda, who for years cast a dark cloud over the entire reputational system of the forum. Might as well throw in that I miss marlboroza and T-MAN. They provided much-needed humor to this place, amidst the wash of ass-kissery and spam.

Lucky for you, there's some campaigns here that are still happy to have you, so long as you churn out spam at a consistent rate. Also, yes, its true, I have better things to do with my time.

And have been in the dark on why I was associated with princejebs, whom I never even knew existed.
I ask for how the investigation ended like this but no response
So had to create this thread
If there is a way I can prove I'm not princejebs
Or a person who can help look into the case.

You should respond to Rizzrack's inquiry, over in that thread:

Still nothing @Rizzrack?
Can you sign a message using this address please ?

I would think Cryptios would take the possibility of VPN usage into account before making accusations regarding alt accounts.

I know your type of people. Lol

You don't know shit. You've been here for over 6 years and haven't learned a damn thing, except how to cheat better. The persistent focus on "easy money" has retarded your growth, which is why after 6 years on the forum you are still chasing pennies.

We know you are Cryptolanad; aside from using the same address, you've admitted it in the past. There are several instances of akjuve (banned) depositing ETH to the same address Cryptolanad deposited ETH to.

In addition, such transactions like these could only be made if the same user was controlling all the addresses:

https://etherscan.io/txs?a=0x467c1dce11aa733fdac5cada42207f5c0a1dfc4c&p=2


Why do I know this? Because that's 3 transactions done in 4 minutes. It would require extremely skillful coordination if the parties were different people.

I personally offer a reward for whoever manages to prove that it is ban evasion. There is an old saying that says "he who lies, steals.". I just wonder if these shills realize how much damage they are causing to the company they are promoting in this way?

I spent about half an hour looking into it and there's a huge tangle of alt accounts; its likely possible to connect them in a firmer manner but I don't have time for it at the moment.
91  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈 The United Football League (UFL) 2024 Thread 🏈 on: June 17, 2024, 12:10:12 AM
The UFL Championship game just concluded. A shutout by the Birmingham Stallions over the San Antonio Brahmas, 25-0. It is the Stallions' 3rd league championship in a row. It was also the first shutout of the entire season. Tom Brady was down on the field, and it was indeed the most packed stadium of any game this year.

Birmingham was #1 in the league throughout the whole year, so not much of a surprise there.

What day is it... June 17? OK so now we only have about 2 months to go before NFL preseason begins.

The long awaited SHITCOIN ERC-20 bridge has finally launched!!  Shocked



https://shit.trading/

This means you can easily swap your SHITCOINs back-and-forth between Dogecoin and Ethereum networks at the drop of a hat.

A big yellow cowboy hat.

How It Works

  • The "bridge" consists of two addresses where SHITCOINs are locked, safeguarded by our advanced proprietary technologies: one Dogecoin address and one Ethereum address.
  • Users can utilize the bridge to "swap" Dogeparty SHITCOIN for ERC-20 SHITCOIN, free of charge.

  • After sending SHITCOIN to the bridge address, the user fills out the form on our website, proving they are the owner of the two addresses.
  • After submitting the form, it is hand-checked with love and care to assure that everyone knows what the hell they're doing and no SHITCOIN are lost (please allow up to 24 hours for processing).
  • If the form is filled correctly, SHITCOINs are magically transmogrified from one blockchain to the other!

Why Would I Want To Do This?

  • As a Dogeparty SHITCOIN holder, the bridge allows you to access new Ethereum-levels of liquidity. You can sell them via Uniswap or earn fees while adding liquidity to the pool!
  • As an Ethereum user, you can own a piece of early Dogecoin history! They can be redeemed at any time for Dogeparty SHITCOIN via the bridge, kept in the safety of your own Dogewallet. Who wouldn't want to own the first shit token (to be named SHITCOIN), after all...

Are There Any Risks Involved?

Yes! SHITCOIN could go to zero at any time. Additionally, there's a chance that our DAO loses access to the bridge address private keys, or I steal the bridged tokens, or that an appointed treasurer steals them. Basically, you'll have to just trust us. We feel this "manual bridge" approach reflects the purity of the SHITCOIN ethos, and we probably won't change it any time soon.

It must be love, and why let a 48-year age gap get in between something as special as that

Bill Belichick, 72, is dating 24-year-old former cheerleader
Quote
Bill Belichick has a new love interest.

Belichick, the 72-year-old ex-Patriots coach, is dating 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, who was formerly a cheerleader, TMZ reported Friday.

Belichick has been linked with Hudson since shortly after he split with longtime girlfriend, Linda Holliday, according to the outlet.
...
One of Hudson’s former cheerleading teammates said Belichick’s love story began when they met on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021, while he was still dating Holliday.

The two bonded over a philosophy project Hudson had been working on and exchanged contact information after landing, according to TMZ.

Sounds legit.

To everyone who says "its a family name." No its not, not for the last 75 years. When's the last time you ran into someone with that as a surname?

See, I don't think it's a stupid username or a good one or clever or anything at all.  I wouldn't judge that person by what he chooses to call himself on the forum; I'd judge him on the quality of his posts and that's it.

From a marketing perspective, its a terrible choice. In the case of the account in question, I would have named myself "apartment4bitcoin". Also, good luck getting into a sig campaign with that name.  Cheesy

The past few weeks have been pretty fruitful in catching AI spammers, just when I thought that there's been a decrease in AI content lately. Well, I was wrong.

It is kind of amazing that people still think they can get away with it. We've been proving them wrong within their 1st 10 posts. Just imagine if they got 100 posts in and then finally got neutral tagged as an AI spammer... what a waste of time on their part that would be.

Has Copyleaks decreased the number of available scans or is it just me?

Yes it has, down to 3 per day. Its possible to get around it by visiting their website while using another browser.

Weren't there a bunch of shitcoins trying to glom onto bitcoin's strength by burning bitcoin?  Those are lost... and for nothing. imo

 edit: "...And so, on January 2 the 30-day burn period commenced, in which people interested in Counterparty's project elected to send 2,140 bitcoins to an unspendable address in exchange for a total of 2.6 million XCP."

There's just one, XCP. The current price of a single XCP is indeed far lower than the burning cost of the BTC. However, it did give rise to a proto-NFT movement that includes the 1st digital trading cards issued on any blockchain, as well as a host of other interesting experiments. As a matter of fact, just yesterday, the 1st 1-of-1 token with an image associated it turned 10 years old.

https://jpjanssen.com/a-timeline-of-non-fungible-tokens-on-counterparty/

I did not participate in the Counterparty burn but I did burn over 1.6 million DOGE for Dogeparty, which seemed to make more sense at the time as there were already billions of Dogecoin in circulation. I've almost broken even on it by now  Tongue

Not that I would have held the $DOGE past 1 cent...

Watanabe's story is a stark reminder of how quickly things can spiral out of control, even for someone with immense wealth. But you don't need millions to feel the crushing impact of gambling losses. Whether it's a few hundred or a few thousand, that gut-wrenching feeling when you've lost money you can't afford to lose is something many can relate to.
I've seen friends get drawn in by the promise of easy money, only to end up chasing their losses and falling into a deeper financial hole. Gambling's allure can be incredibly strong, and it's easy to lose touch with reality in the heat of the moment. But the fallout can be huge, impacting your finances, relationships, mental health, and overall well-being.
It's important to remember that gambling addiction is a serious condition that can affect anyone, no matter their background or financial status. It's a complex issue influenced by both psychological and biological factors. Spotting the signs early and seeking help is crucial to breaking free from the harmful cycle of addiction.

Post #2:

You're absolutely right, there's no reason why faith and gambling can't coexist. However, it's also crucial to recognize that religion can be a real lifeline for people struggling with gambling addiction. Many faiths emphasize self-control and moderation, which can be incredibly helpful for those who have a hard time managing their gambling habits. In the end, whether you're religious or not, the key is to be honest with yourself about why you gamble and to set some limits. If it ever feels like it's becoming more than just a fun activity, it's a good idea to take a step back and seek help. There are plenty of other ways to have fun and enjoy life.
...
It's also worth noting that different religions have varying views on gambling. Some might have stricter rules against it, while others might be more relaxed or even incorporate gambling into certain rituals or traditions. So, it’s not just about an individual's personal interpretation of their faith, but also the broader cultural and religious context they come from. Ultimately, it's up to each person to figure out how their faith and gambling fit together, if at all. As long as they’re not harming themselves or others, and they’re honest with themselves about why they gamble, who are we to judge? It’s a personal choice, and there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer.

Leverage is definitely a double-edged sword! It can amplify your profits, but if you're not careful, it can also lead to huge losses. I've seen too many people get greedy with leverage and end up losing everything. On the other hand, hodling is a slow and steady strategy. It's like planting a seed and watching it grow over time. It's wise to think about your capital and how much risk you can handle before jumping in. There's no shame in playing it safe if that's what you're comfortable with. But if you're up for a bit of adventure and can stomach the volatility, day trading can be an exciting way to try and grow your crypto holdings.
...
Both day trading and hodling have their roles in the crypto world. For those who just starting out, I'd suggest beginning with hodling. Picking  some solid projects you believe in and let them sit for a while. Once you get the hang of things, you can dabble in day trading for a bit more excitement. Taking some profits now and then – it's always great to see  gains turn into real money. Anyways crypto is a long game. We're still in the early days of this revolution, and the growth potential is huge.

IMHO: Connection between faith and gambling is complex, with different viewpoints on how compatible they are. Many religious people gamble casually, seeing it as a harmless activity rather than a way to make money. However, gambling addiction is a serious issue that can cause major personal and financial problems. Religion can provide guidance and support to help people avoid these dangers.
For those who decide to gamble, regardless of their faith, it's important to be self-aware and practice moderation. Knowing why you gamble and setting clear boundaries are key to keeping it a healthy activity. Reflecting honestly on whether you're gambling for fun or as an unhealthy escape can help you make better decisions. Ultimately, whether to gamble or not is a personal choice, but it's crucial to gamble responsibly if you choose to do so.

I don't know if there's a rule in place regarding names or I'm just sensitive about this particular name or something.

Yeah ultimately it comes down to just you being sensitive. There is no rule regarding offensive names that I'm aware of.

Of course its a stupid name, but the only thing he's really harming are his chances of anyone taking him seriously. Not that they would anyway with that kind of an advertisement. Looks like a lowbrow scam. His name could have been "SunshineKittens" and he would have gotten the same level of interest.

While most of the patches I've posted to date were done on a free-time/voluntary basis, theymos and I did recently come to an arrangement, and I am now paid for the work I do on Bitcointalk.

Its always fun to watch people work through their psychological issues on the forum; especially the ones that are so obsessed with this place that they keep making new accounts after their old one is banned -- and its often not even for monetary reasons. Just like an obsession with reputational redemption, which usually fails in a spectacular manner.

The personal text of Filippo Spina really says it all: "Mental Health Tech". LOL.
