8381  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 🚀✅🆕💯🔝 How cryptocurrency has changed your life? 🔝💯🆕✅🚀 on: November 08, 2018, 06:06:12 AM
Let's talk about how new financial system can change someone's life.

For example, I have just started working in this IT-area and I'm impressed too much in a positive way. There're some difficulties for my simple woman's brain but I hope I will cope with that :>

i became nervous and lost some of my savings as i entered the field in january 2018 and was a victim of the bear wave which is lasting until now and i hope i regain my savings

How come you entered the crypto space in January 2018? your account is very old (2013) and according to your post history, you used to mine LTC, right?
your statement and post history presents 2 different stories. 1st you bought this account recently or you are just lying? which one is true bro?

@vella85 Yeah, a couple of wins can do magic sometimes. I think this is the time batsmen should step up and put some run on the scoreboard especially the senior players like Finch/Maxwell should anchor the inning in top/middle order respectively and give bowlers some chance to fight back. I would like to see Shaun Marsh in playing XI for the next game.

@vella85 let's just hope that it's just a small phase and I am hoping that Aus team will bounce back in upcoming ODI against SA and test series against India.

On another note, the test match can show a completely different story because every team struggling to win away from home.
England lost 5 wickets in the first session.

Tbh I never tried to find any physical shops because didn't felt finding one specifically. having said that I did spend BTC online several times. My highest purchase was online course related to 3d Animation, worth $2000-$3000. and paid the first installment with Bitcoins worth $350. after that followed by the traditional method because they denied my request.

Yeah, few of them performing poorly but its good start for them. I welcome this step that they are getting chance to compete they will come along with a couple of seasons. right now I am watching Vidharba's inning against Maharashtra because of Wasim Jaffer.

Yeah.. I am also watching it live on Star Sports 2. Vidarbha is still trailing by some 177 runs, and I am not sure whether Wasim Jaffer will be able to save them from the humiliation of an innings defeat.

Haha looks like saraswati maa baithi hai aapki jaban par lol. he's down at 63.

Ranji Trophy, probably the largest first class competition in the world (with 37 teams!!!!) started yesterday with 9 new teams (the six northeastern states plus Bihar, Puducherry and Uttarakhand). The new teams arre performing poorly, with the outstation players taking most wickets and scoring most of the runs.

Sikkim: 299/9 (Two outstation players Milind and BB Sharma made 202 and 45 respectively) vs Manipur (outstation player S Shaurya took 4 wickets, native player Rex Singh took 3 wkts)

Mizoram: 106 (Outstation players Taruwar Kohli, Akhil Rajput, and Sinan Khader made 49, 28 and 14 respectively, for Nagaland  outstation players Abrar Kazi, Pawan Suyal and Tahmeed Rahman took 4,2 and 1 wickets respectively). vs Nagaland 199/5 (Rongsen Jonathan 72, Sedezhalie 24, Moia 2 wkts)

Arunachal 166 vs Meghalaya 117/7


Yeah, few of them performing poorly but its good start for them. I welcome this step that they are getting chance to compete they will come along with a couple of seasons. right now I am watching Vidharba's inning against Maharashtra because of Wasim Jaffer.

I think the ban on Smith and Warner needs to stand because if they back flip on their decision now it won't look good on Cricket Australia so it needs to stay in place no matter how the team is performing without them. I just think the ones that want it lifted are worried about crowd numbers as like I said with the current form the Australian team is in, no one would want to pay money to watch them even though they are playing a top team in India. I'll be interested to see the crowd numbers this summer compared to previous Australian summers when India have toured Australia. I will also say this and that is this is India's big chance to win their first test match series in Australia as they have never won a series in Australia.

Yeah, it shouldn't. CA already took the high ground in this matter so no question of backing down now. Atm, we can only wait, let's see what will happen in Adelaide Oval.hoping on an excellent opening test match. India will go as a Favorite but cricket is a funny game. Hope India will not repeat the same mistake as they did in England. I am excited to see Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant.

It is certain agaisnt the rules of the game and whoever it may be how big player may be action will be taken against them. So was the case for Warner and Smith as proven guilty OZ have banned them for a year and letting everybody else know what the rsult could be if anyone try to do such things.


Of course, it is against the rule and perpetrator should face the consequences no matter what. btw ICCI rule is 5-6 test match ban if someone gets caught or found guilty on the accusation of ball tampering. that's why I mentioned One year is way too long period and no other board will do the same what CA did on the Sandpapergate saga.

Quote
Believe or not Ball tempering has always been a big part of test cricket. before we had a few cameras on the ground now every move is monitored and it's completely different from Spot fixing. Make no mistake to mixing them up together.

Wait! so are you trying to justify cheating? Spot-fixing = Cheating, Tampering the ball = Cheating. Why is it hard for you to grasp this simple concept?

Quote
One year ban is a very long period but CA took a tough and bold decision in this ball-tempering Saga due to backlash in Aus.

Wow, I mean Amir got banned for 5 years for a single ball which didn't even matter in the match's scenario while Smith and Warner did something which could have turned the match in their favor, How is the first offence more punishable than the second?

Quote
Can you imagine the same thing happening in India if Virat Kohli gets caught in the same situation? Big No from BCCI even ECB or CSA.

Yeah, how can I imagine that, Roll Eyes Where Spot-Fixers were let off from the courts in india. I get it betting is a big business in India but please don't try to justify either of them.

No idea why you suddenly jumped into the conclusion that I am justifying Cheating. I am not. Spot-fixing and Ball tampering are two different things. Spot-fixing and Match Fixing come under Anti-corruption code and Ball tampering come under Fair and unfair play. Both are cheating? Yes, but same? No.

If you have something substantial comment to add here or want me to correct, then please do so, you are more than welcome. I will accept my mistakes, more importantly, will correct them but please don't jump into any conclusion. We are here for discussion and learn something not to put each other down.

I understand you didn't know about this Anti-corruption code that's why you are talking about Amir. Did it ever occur to you why Southwark Crown Court, England sentenced him 6 months? Yes, you heard it right Court. After that Ban followed by ICCI. Now let me ask you that have you ever come across any case in cricket history where Player got punished by Court because of Ball-tampering? The answer is No.

Please reread the context when I mentioned Virat as an example. I was talking about Ball tampering, not spot-fixing, I understand that there will be a strong reaction if Virat gets caught in the same situation as the Aussie players did but Board will slap him on the wrist with maximum 5-6 test match ban, but one year ban? I don't think so.

There is a lot of rumbling in the Australian media that the cricket association want to lift the bans on Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft but the board is sticking to their decision at the present time. To be honest this could be one of the worst Australian summers in many years even though India is touring Australia but with Smith and Warner out and they way the team is playing right now it doesn't look good. I'm not sure they will attract the crowds like they normally do and that is why I think the cricket association is trying to get these bans lifted. Time will tell if this happens or not but right now the bans will stand.

If for this reasons and all if the bans are lifted then tomorrow all other country will also lift the ban imposed to their players giving any reasons. They were banned for illegal doing which is correct and what board is doing is also good. If Australia cannot win without them then it is shame on Australia cricket that they dont have more potential players apart from their banned players.

Bhai, Believe or not Ball tempering has always been a big part of test cricket. before we had a few cameras on the ground now every move is monitored and it's completely different from Spot fixing. Make no mistake to mixing them up together.

One year ban is a very long period but CA took a tough and bold decision in this ball-tempering Saga due to backlash in Aus. not to mention Prime minister's comment was cherry on top IMHO.

8393  Other / Meta / Re: Full merit transaction history for any user - now with GRAPHS! on: October 30, 2018, 05:37:19 AM
Updated until last Friday's Merit data dump.

why not a permanent ban for those users who involved in the trading account or merits.
Like trust, merit isn't moderated:
While we will not be directly moderating this, I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with.
Theymos also said not to worry too much about small merit abuse, in the end it doesn't matter much.

With due respect, is there any specific reason/ thought process to avoid such kind of abuse? If it's because of lack of time, then I can understand that.
Abuse is Abuse no matter big or small, and there should be similar consequences for the same kind of act if proven or caught. Or we are waiting for a small abuser to get big?


They will run out of sMerit to abuse so the problem will sort itself out and there is not much point wasting too much time and effort on it.

Yes, they will and it make sense in big abuser's case but What about the small ones who bought merits for themselves or their Alt accounts. an exceptional case is always there.

Indeed,its very possible to talk God-Bhagawan. But i don't pray i just give him a call  Cool. he's my cab driver and let me tell you Tanvir he's a shitty driver when comes to find the right road during traffic. I guide him 99% times. Grin Grin

In India, Bhagawan is a kind of common first name and it translates God.

Would love to see another close match, Pitch looks like a graveyard for bowlers lol. Now its all up to Windies batsmen.

After a good start from West Indies, 3 wickets in 6 balls, bhuvneshwar took 2 wickets and bumrah 1 wickets in this 6 balls, it is a big blow and now it looks hard for WI to win, now let see with how many runs they are going to lose them the match. If India wins today then they will be in 2-1 ration and last match will become more interesting.

Sadly I missed the good show of Indian bowlers in this dead pitch and India won easily lol and it appears to me Khaleel bowled exceptionally well along with Kuldeep and Jadeja. for me Ambati Raydu's inning is a good sign or should I say relief moment.
Little disappointed when it comes to Dhawan. he keeps throwing his wicket after getting a good start and I was wishing for a 4th double century for Rohit but koi na. he will get there soon Cheesy

7 Dead, Several Others Shot At Pittsburgh Synagogue
/[/url]

When I saw the topic,
People died you POS. And you come out here with your "Muslims are called terrorists because of media reporting" BS.

Islamist ideology is a breeding ground for terrorists.  You can deny all you want, but that is the truth.

As for this mass murderer, he misdirected his anger and shot innocent people who had nothing to do with the Caravan of people in Mexico.  Even if they did, so what?

Not Media reporting- Cheer Leading- when it comes to such a terrible incident.
It's sad that this kind of attack happens, on the other hand, I was relieved that it was not carried by a Muslim person. we all know how that road ends. at least after this event, another soul will not get hurt because of their skin color and religion.

Believe me bro I will not deny this even in my wildest dream. but I know we both don't know each other's story so that's fine and you are entitled to say what you want. wrong or right? that's another discussion but will respect your opinion
And truth changes according to demographics. The clash always occurs between our truth vs someone else truth. and result? Innocent suffer always. we call this collateral damage.

Well, we are seeing lots of misdirected individuals. remember the Kansas shooting?  

I am not surprised if after some days news floating around that perpetrator is mentally disturbed.

That's a gimme... only mentally disturbed people shoot up a place of worship with an assault rifle... sane people don't do this

Not all mentally disturbed people go on a killing spree, but all people who go on a killing spree are mentally disturbed

100% agree with you but I am guessing you missed my point? maybe I didn't conveyed my thoughts clearly. English is not my 1st, 2nd or 3rd language so I am sorry for that confusion. please allow me to add a few things hope this will clear things then would like to know your valuable thought.

1. Muslim man kills = He's terrorist
2. Black man Kills = He's Criminal
3. White man Kills= Oh he's just a mentally disturbed


There are a lot of people willing to call this guy a white supremacist, criminal terrorist (me for one!) or as Republicans call him a moderate!!

I am happy to call all religious zealots and fundamentals mentally disturbed.  I am also happy to call anyone a criminal if they are one!

Agreed on the bigger picture and let me add one thing bluntly without any political correctness. our opinions don't matter, it always stays in the drawing room during discussion or to some extent Candle march. in the end, its all come to establishments (Politicians, so-called intellectuals/Media) they set the narrative and masses follow them.

https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2018/10/27/heavy-police-presence-near-synagogue-in-squirrel-hill/

Anyone want to guess at the religion or political affiliation of the shooter?

I'm going to guess he was a Republican and a Christian... seems like an easy bet

When I saw the topic, I immediately knew that perpetrator is not Muslim. Because of the keywords like "Terror and Terrorist" were missing. Another mass shooting carried by so-called Nutjob or Individual. I am not surprised if after some days news floating around that perpetrator is mentally disturbed.

If you need more guns just to feel safe, then you are not living in a safe place.
