It's not that they are not supposed to post, the forum actually disables them from posting while banned. I don't know if all the other activities you posted are disabled when the account is banned, but I'm just gonna go with "that which is not forbidden is allowed".


I thought he probably meant posting with an alt. (That is the entire concept of ban evasion comes in, right?)



8 ) Creating a new account(but not posting)  (Q. why is 8 Cool?)

Typing "8 )" (without spaces ) is an emoticon for a smiley face.  Cool

LOL. Smiley
That comes to how is the smiley face (without a nose) cool? Grin

Edit: and ears
2082  Other / Meta / Re: Activities you can't do beside posting while being banned on: September 07, 2015, 08:46:30 AM
Not tested myself.  Grin

Here is what I think.

1) Giving a negative trust
I think it is not possible to do that.

2) Changing their avatar
Possible. Allowed.

3) Changing their personal details
Possible. Allowed.

4) Trying to PM someone.
Ban evasion.

5) Changing your signature
Possible. Allowed.

6) Editing/Deleting your posts
Ban evasion

7) Watching/ Unwatching thread
No idea.

Cool Creating a new account(but not posting)  (Q. why is 8 Cool?)
Possible. Allowed. no posting, no PM. Why would someone do that, lol?

9) Using another account from a different IP, while its not known if the banned account is connected to the new account.
Death sentence if caught.  Shocked

10) Posting in meta thread with a signature, about something which is not related to your ban
Ban evasion.

11) Trolling(only once) in meta thread
About his ban? Possible, Allowed or ban extension depends on the case.
Not about his ban in a different thread. Ban evasion.


Nothing above has been confirmed by me. Not reliable.

Disclaimer: If you were banned and you did something above listed as permissible, and got yourself perma banned, I am not responsible. Grin

Sign a message containing just the random number that everyone's guessing at with that private key, then put ONLY the signature of the message in the OP (if the address is posted with the signature, people can flip through each number in the range to see which one verifies, and win the contest easily).
To counter this, you could add some kind of salt to the signed message, so instead of signing a message with "59" if 59 was the winning number, you could sign a message with:
Code:
"59" is the winning number ffd2ebf779d4ac8e66e1b01ff788de302f8bbe14822106469d30d8c92abbd06d
Then you could post the entire signed message that can be verified, and in the above case it should be very clear that "59" was the correct number to guess.

Although a spreadsheet could be used, I don't think it would be necessary, as someone could simply read through the thread with the various guesses.

+1 on that.

That would guarantee that someone will not guess the address and brute force it. (The address could be possibly linked with the signed one which could still allow brute forcing)

Also I think hashing it after salting it with a one way hashing function is also a reliable solution?

Do you think it is fair that I should have to risk my money on the potential that someone else will run away while acting as escrow, when I have built up my own reputation to a level in which others are willing to risk their money on me, if I want to protect my own identity? This is not unheard of and has happened before. If you think this is fair, then why don't you repay shdvb the $400 that was stolen from him by maidak, the $5,000 that was stolen fromandresmm91, and the $10,000 that he apparently stole from someone on OTC? Maidak was previously one of the most reputable people on the forum until it was revealed that he stole all this money.

Are you actually admitting it?  Roll Eyes

Warning! this transaction is a double spend. You should be extremely careful when trusting any transactions to/from this sender. 101084994

when i open that transaction link this is what i read

lol, use any reliable block explorers. Wink

The transaction has 20+ confirmations in blockchain.

You are probably checking blockchain.info, which has a lot of issues and very unreliable.


Edit: I hope the site wasn't using blockchain API while the hack happened. Roll Eyes
That and accepting unconfirmed transactions are a deadly combination, imo.

Tracked down address to 1MEpjpd284w7ityNEpwKNi817FsdZKBrGQ (from your chat username)

TXID: https://blockchain.info/tx/e951ceae8b4360f141461d4929d6ef428ed287e91f3f3a775f6faa1098f2b0ff

26 confirmations.

Double spend? No.

Funds were refunded? Not yet.


Requesting OP to refund the amount to 1MEpjpd284w7ityNEpwKNi817FsdZKBrGQ .


Edit: Make sure you don't send it twice. I don't know how the system works or whether the system would automatically send it once blockchain.info removes the double spend flag it has at the moment.

Most likely the programmer accidentally uses <= instead of < in the code somewhere, and it should be very easy to check and to fix it.
OP could also check whether there was a sudden influx of gamblers flat betting 9900x in the past hours, to access the site's loss (if any).

Chances of hitting : 1 in 5000 rolls.
1 hit : 9900 times.

Positive EV : 98%.

Pretty decent odds to play. Cheesy

But still a little bit risky. Wink

that is ascii art I think, but it is not showing as box for me. Maybe it is something wrong with your browser because it is not support the ascii art or maybe because you lower operating system? but it is not box for my screen here

Nothing is wrong with my browser or OS. They are the latest and all up to date. Just want him to be aware that at least 50% won't be able to see it. Wink

How do you know the total wagered from real player (depositor) is only around 100btc? Just curious how you calculate it..

He doesn't. Inspired by QS, I think.


Rough estimate is around 1% (to 2% max) of total wagered from faucet players. (exactly the other way round he suggested). Faucet contributes more rolls (not wagered), thought it was obvious. Smiley

Go to https://stats.dadice.com/ click on leaderboard, and total up the total wagered of top 30 players which adds up to around 9556.693508BTC already.

Cheers Smiley
Have a nice day.

I still have not been given a reasonable explanation on why Quickseller faked a ban.
Maybe you should start a new thread about it, as that discussion will again derail the discussion IMO  Smiley .

I would like it if we have all these discussions relating to QS in a single thread. I think even Quickseller wouldn't want so many threads discussing him, lol. Cheesy

On the other hand, that is not exactly off-topic. One of the speculated reasons is QS faked the ban so that Panthers52 couldn't be QS since he was active during the ban period. which makes it on-topic.



I still have not been given a reasonable explanation on why Quickseller faked a ban.
He was banned for real, but some bans only last 3 days.

In any case you and everyone else with complaints against quickseller should start giving him negative rep. I will be leaving a negative rep for each incident for now on.

To be frank, I am not interested in leaving any negative trust feedback to anyone without proving him/her guilty.
I have no reasonable evidence to support that, and it remains a speculation.

Doing so would be adopting Quickseller's methods. which is what I am arguing against.

Edit: He was NOT banned.
He faked it using an alt with a username that would mislead people. And pretended to be ban evading while he wasn't.

2094  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Quickseller escrowing for himself on: September 07, 2015, 05:44:39 AM
escrowing for himself, but he didnt rip anyone off right?

That depends.

Taking money for the express purpose of protecting goods, and then offering no protection at all could be considered ripping people off.  Why was that extra money paid if it wasn't needed?



I agree with this. If someone uses their alt, no protection is offered. Same as sending first, right? If they wanted to send first or trusted the buyer or seller they would have just done so and no escrow would have been needed.

I agree too. Escrow is supposed to be an independent third-party.
2095  Other / Meta / Re: Proven Safest Fastest way to get on default trust on: September 07, 2015, 05:40:36 AM
If you never do anything shady you never get a negative rep here. You make it sound as if people get a negative for nothing at all. Every newbie I have seen with negative was for the obviously bad things...asking for loans on first post etc..

I would say he is an alt of someone else (not likely to be a newbie). See that that one is the only post he made.

Edit he/she, I mean.

Hi Deres. Thank you 4 playing in betterbets.io, i hope you👍 the immersive and stunning speed of our most wanted🐍 (snake eyes)
Remember, you have also, the nicely well bred 🐎🐎 ( each horse has an equal 20% chance to win the race, for the standard house-edge of 1% this comes to a multiplier of 4.95 ), and not least the funny PLINKO 🎱. In a very short future, ours cherished (◣_◢) , will add new exclusive games in the scene BTC, so be in touch.

See you, in a bit  ≧◠ᴥ◠≦✊

I wanted to say this for some time. All I see is a lot of boxes... except usually supported characters like (◣_◢) and ≧◠ᴥ◠≦ kind of the only thing most can see in the post.

May be use images instead? Smiley

Have a good day Smiley

This I can't recall, can you provide a link that will prove this? not that I am defending QS but it's much better if we can back our posts with links.

Finally found one. : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1126914.0

Google gave this one only after plenty of searching. There are others, but more difficult to find. Keywords match with many other topics.

Buying and selling account is not against "rules" either. Sad

Thanks Smiley

LOL, well, that is quite possible (entire lifetime is too long, lol). Grin

He should hit 0 or 2BTC soon though, considering how random the numbers are.

He only got to win or lose 100 times more than the other.
2099  Other / Meta / Re: Default trust on: September 06, 2015, 03:24:20 PM
I'm curious because there are many users with green trust with 40+ and are not in default trust

Trust score is not much important, esp. with accounts being bought and sold.

It is not correlated to being in default trust either. For example, shorena has a trust score of 13 (when viewed with default settings),  but he is on default trust, and is much more trustworthy than most of the others who kind of got higher trust score incl. myself.

The content of the feedbacks is more important than the score itself. For example, some get a green trust just because they used an escrow who was in default trust, which doesn't actually mean anything if you are looking for trustworthiness.

Always use escrow. Smiley
2100  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Quickseller escrowing for himself on: September 06, 2015, 02:37:15 PM

Thats because I have the right to live and nothing should overturn a right, otherwise it becomes a privilege. I'm unaware of any such right to the disclosure of alt accounts. I understand your point completely, you seem to think QS has commited some kind of fraud by not disclosing the account, I don't agree with you. Scams aren't moderated here, buyers need to be careful, they are the ones responsible to find this kind of trickery.

You are saying that it is completely fine to escrow for self Huh

Which one is it that you are confused about?
1. Escrows are independent third-parties. You do know what third party is?
2. An omission of a material fact for personal benefit is fraud.
3. Libel is a published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation.

Also, your argument is awkward because you are saying buyers need to be careful of getting scammed. I agree. Scams aren't moderated here. I agree.  But, Do scammers deserve negative trust? Yes, they do. is a continuation of that. (Not saying QS is scammer here. Just saying you missed this. Scammers are responsible and will be accused. Technically, you are using Caveat Emptor without considering the exemptions inter alia fraud.  Cool)

1. A type of car insurance. /s

2. Where is the personal benefit? While he "could" have scammed, he didn't actually.

3. DaDice scammed me = libel
I think DaDice are scammers = opinion

1. At least you accepted this. Smiley

2. Fee, trust feedback. (and your point. Also, it is shady, and I highly doubt if this is true and actually proved, QS will remain in default trust)

3.IMO both are opinions if that is all an ordinary person says. But when QS, being supposedly a trusted member of the community, asserts "Da Dice is scam" in multiple threads, posts and trust feedbacks that is called libel.

Cheers Smiley
