Site seems cool.. Kinda hate getting tickets though.. Feells like a ripoff. :/
huh, why? It's free after all. Probably because it feels better to get SOMETHING than nothing, :p. a chance to win multiple amounts of the instant wins should be "something" too... it's the greed!  Oh, no, that's what he was talking about I think: it's better to get the 100 satoshis or whatever as a guaranteed win than to get tons of tickets that may or may not lead anywhere. I hate taking risks, so I'm one of the few people that likes a little guaranteed instead of the chance to win a lot. Others are different though. Was just clarifying his problem,  . Yeah Thanks! I think the problem is understood and it is exactly why we introduced instant wins with BETA-2! However, it is still a raffle and the "winning" part will stay the main focus! It should not be just another faucet! It would help immensely if you could add in a flag to where if the winner's ID isn't 235, it will roll again. Just a random number I chose, but I'm sure someone would be happy, . |

Get it up to a dollar or two and then buy a share in a microcap that pays daily dividends
Or join an ad campaign on the forum if you got a month to lurk
Do you happen to know of any that are worth it? So far the ones I've seen, at today's difficulty, will take 250+ days to pay off and are dropping in payouts weekly. Try ASICMiner that's not a bond issuing and has a stable dividend paid weekly For 1/100 of a share its 0.028 bitcoin atm Yeah, that one (based on when I ran calculations earlier) has an almost 2 year break-even point, =/ |

But in the original bitcoin client by defoult its disabled the option for faster transaction, and I belive there are no fees if you wait longer ? I got one payment from a minig pool 50btc of 0.1 coins, and I bougth 1 time from a website from bitcoini.com for 0.10 coins, and my wallet is at 0.11 now. However I did not spend any to see if I will lose some of the coins over the transaction. Also I used a few sites on my work computer to get free bitcoins but when I saw they pay in mBTC I stoped to use them . The size of the transaction is also a concern. If all outputs are a minimum of 0.01 BTC *and* the transaction size is less than 10KB, you are fine. If either of those is not true, you have to pay a fee. |

By useless I mean: '+1', 'yeah', 'good idea', etc
I don't condone useless posts but I think a tiny proportion of such posts can be tolerated
Except if you are displaying ads in your sig IMO, so the idea is to make this strictly forbidden: deletion of posts, then PM warning, then ban even if they are not spamming
I completely agree. What makes this worse is when people are posting things completely off-topic. For example, one thread I saw the other day was talking about an issue with a mining program and some spammer came there and replied with a message along the lines of "yes its best," which had nothing at all to do with the topic or any of the discussion going on. This is seen far too often here. There are also the people that have tons of posts that are nothing but their BTC address as they go from thread to thread just posting it either as spam or in the hopes that people pay random BTC addresses. |

I think you should wait until people have banked more requests than that. The less payments you send the better on your fees, and the less payments people receive the less they are paying when they spend it. |

Whoa now... that was unexpected and honestly I think it changes my entire view of the One. To me, a company paying attention to its customers is one of the most admirable things one can do. To read this and see that Microsoft completely did a 180 from something they were so adamant about (or two things, if you consider the requirement to be online to play SP games) is major to me. Maybe that was their plan. But, Sony was already doing this. Xbox had to do it, otherwise they would have lost the battle. They didn't listen to customers. They listened to their advisor's that they were making a big mistake. It wouldn't have mattered one way or the other. Xbox fans will always buy the next Xbox, regardless as to what kind of ridiculousness is implemented. Much like why PC gamers use Windows. Because we like to? No. Because our choices are either 1) use Windows or 2) not be able to play most of our games. |

I was trying to implement this, it's not so that difficult, but with a problem, I have no easy way to stop people from spamming the faucet with different subdomains, e.g. one hold example.com would use aa.example.com and bb.example.com pointing to the same site to apply the faucet payment, I have no good way to determine if they are the same site, and one may generate infinite subdomains as long as he own the domain name. I used to thought if I could set a limit as high as 5 subdomains for one domain, but hey, we have many public site such as blogspot.com, you cannot do this... any suggestion to solve this problem?
Would limiting this to only domain homepages listed on Alexa avoid the problem? In other words: http://randomwebsite.com/ would be accepted because it has a page rank (860,587) on alexa: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/randomwebsite.com#http://googleblog.blogspot.com would be accepted because it has a page rank (20,830) on alexa: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/googleblog.blogspot.com#http://googleblog.blogspot.ca/2013/06/google-scholarships-recognize-84.html would not be accepted because it's a subpage: http://aa.blogspot.com would not be accepted because it does not have a page rank (No Data) on alexa: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/aa.blogspot.com#No. No. NO! Sorry, lol. Alexa means absolutely nothing and is ridiculously easy to manipulate. It has no real-world benefit, other than for the lulz. |

Hi all,
So, I've successfully received my payment from BitVisitor on Sunday and didn't see it until now. However, I was curious what I'd be able to do with the 0.0000104 BTC, as it's only worth 50 sense if I remember correctly. I've been accumulating BTC on coin box which is nice, but it'd be nice to earn at least a dollar or two a day or even every two days so that I can start using it to buy stuff without spending lots of cash on BTC. Of course my track record with referrals isn't too good either.
Thanks all.
The most you can make from free sites would be using something like the BTC Faucet Rotator. You won't get rich off it, though. The only way to make big amounts is to do something that earns it: ex. do actual jobs. |

You can't, as even if you had them put files containing codes, they can still make massive numbers of subdomains essentially free and have their webserver show you the different code file you assigned for each to prove thay are different sites, because basically they really are different sites it is merely trivially easy to create thousands of them.
-MarkM-
This. And what you're talking about is called a "wildcard" domain, where you put up a * and then you can write scripts to react based on what subdomain was input. The only real way to make this work would be to manually review sites that are given, but even so it still causes problems as people can create new forum accounts and such. |

i disagree. i definitely understand the reasoning behind hiring a professional writer in order to get your foot in the door of the college you really want to attend. of course you will have to write your own after this, but this one is significantly more important than all of the others.
Not to mention, we're on the Internet, where information is freely transmitted and can be copied an infinite amount of times, and yet we still find it necessary to pay an institution several thousands to teach us what we would largely learn on our own to begin with, all for a piece of paper that reaffirms that we're this or that because we couldn't figure out if we were or weren't without it, so it seems. How long until we look back at this outdated method of knowledge sharing and laugh at just how much cash was thrown at degrees? Suppose you are really sick, and you have two choices: 1. A physician who learned everything on the internet. 2. A physician who went to class and shaped his ideas in discussion with experienced professors. The other thing is that if you feel college is there for the knowledge, you're either going to a horrible school or you're missing the entire point. College is about building relationships and learning not the material itself, but the concepts behind things to make yourself a more productive person. While you can learn things online, the vast majority of what you learn is more of situational knowledge than anything; the ability to apply that knowledge to completely unrelated things (or just similar but different things) is often lost. This is also a huge reason why Doctorate degrees, for example, require that you do unique research that hasn't been done before. It shows that you understand how to apply different concepts to new things in order to teach yourself (and others) something fresh and exciting. Anyone can be a parrot. |

UPDATE
Due to ASICMINER's decline in hashing for several days now, I am pausing any new issuance of TAT.VIRTUALMINER units, and I will begin to find alternate backing for the hashes AM has taken offline.
Since it is likely that this is a temporary lull in hashrate from AM, I will not be securing new backing aggressively, but I will be buying other hashing assets at a modest pace until AM gets back up to a speed that covers TAT.VM's hashes, or I until I buy enough alternate hashes to exceed what is required for backing TAT.VM.
Any alternate hashing that is purchased will likely be held permanently as backing for TAT.VM hashes.
Once the dust has settled, I will issue a new TRANSPARENCY REPORT, showing all holdings used as backing, etc.
Thanks!
Does this mean that the BTC/share should go up from where it is now instead of continuing down, or am I misunderstanding what you mean? It probably won't affect things much on BTCT.co. If I issue new units anywhere, it can slow price growth or depress the price. However, the volume hasn't been that high on BTCT.co, so the price never was able to get as high as on BitFunder, and thus I have not issued nearly as many. Ohh, my question was in relation to the dividends (sorry I didn't specify). |
