According to me that is not the right step, if he keep asking public opinion votes then they will become accustomed with these and Greek people will demand the same as in future when Greek will rise up economically and socially, I am still sad for Greece for their unstable state.

Wait... what exactly is the problem with the voters becoming accustomed with voicing their opinions, and more importantly, having them actually acted on? I understand "real" democracy is hard, and it requires an informed, educated and active public but, surely, this is going in the right direction? If anything, it seems to me that more consultations like this could help incentivize greater public participation and activity, and effectively revitalize their society - and indeed, most Western societies, as we all share the same "democracy" (for sale) problem.
1722  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Cost of Bitcointalk Accounts. on: June 27, 2015, 01:09:23 PM
well in that case I would like to know how to gain trist till that amount .
and something about that green trust.
will the price of the account really goes up if it has a high trust ?

It probably will, but consider these two points first: forcefully trying to gain positive trust might backfire, and net you negative trust instead; and who would usually be willing to buy accounts with positive trust, when they could pay less for a similarly ranked account with neutral trust? You'll probably just end up aiding scammers, if you go through with this.

U auction it off

However, isn't that quite risky? I mean, I might be wrong, but I'm under the impression that Steam accounts (and most any other type of account really) are generally easy for the original user to retrieve if he were willing to do so: perhaps by claiming the account was hacked, or some such? In this scenario, the email provided might not be the original email account used to register on Steam, and even if it was, you'd still have other ways to prove ownership of the account after the sale, like through credit cards used / bank transfers / CD keys or codes used.

You sound like one of those people who won't go outside because it's dangeous  Cheesy

Live life on the edge.. open up your vulnerabilities and don't pre-scan  Grin

"Won't go outside"? You mean, outside the forum? I visit other sites all the time, thank you very much. Tongue

And yes, I know it might sound like a lot of trouble for little gain, having to install add-ons or configuring your browser not to run any and every piece of code that is thrown at it; but it really isn't - you can do that in a couple of minutes, without any deep understanding of how browsers work. And ultimately, it could end up saving you from some icky situations, or more often than not, saving your money; particularly true if you use online banking services, or even Bitcoin, without relying on some form of cold storage. But, if you're still unwilling to do that, at the very least, don't use the same device for browsing/watching pr0n/installing whatever you get of the internet, and keeping/using personal information or moving money about.

Thanks all, everyones advice much appreciated Smiley
Thanks for taking the time to answer and advise.

Another route you can take to sell your BTC for GBP, and then deposit in your bank account, is through payment processors like Payza, or Neteller. They do require you to have a verified account before this option is made available to you though, but if you already have one, the process is fairly simple, and the fees aren't very high.
1726  Other / Off-topic / Re: Age of Citizens - Browser strategy game on: June 26, 2015, 10:59:35 PM
I would like to introduce to you the last game I developed.

AgeOfCitizens is a massive online multiplayer strategy game. You can register as a citizen of your country and help it grow economically, politically and extend its borders.

Game is clearly a browser game, no add-on needed to play.

Main Features:
- Construct your companies and produce goods necessary for you and your co-citizens.
- Fight against other citizens on the battlefield. Be careful, they are real citizens defending themselves!
- Become a politician and choose your country's future in cooperation with the other political members.
- Make friends and all together help your country conquer the AgeOfCitizens world!

I would appreciate if you could share your feedback, in this thread or in game forum.

Hopefully, bitcoin will be added soon if you want to support the game using your bicoin wallet.

You can join the game at: Age Of Citizens

I haven't tried the game but, going by your description, and a quick glance at the site's front page, it reminds me of MarketGlory, or maybe even GoldenBattles - the only difference being, this one doesn't seem to pay users for playing (or rather, allow them to convert in-game currency into real money), unlike those others. Do you have any intention of including such a feature in the future? It would certainly attract a lot of players, especially considering this is still a new game, and so, with less competitors.

Are there any avatar campaigns worth joining?  I didn't even know it was a thing until today.  >_>  Haha 

And no wars guys!  Cheesy

Well, there are only a few avatar campaigns at the moment, and many of those are linked to a signature campaign (so, you have to either use both at the same time, or have some restrictions on what else you can advertise). But you can check the following thread to see if there is one suitable for you: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1087042 - similar in nature to the Signature Campaign Overview thread, that is the Avatar Campaign Overview thread.

I pressed the button without thinking.. now I'm anxious :/

should I change my passwords?  Sad
wait internet websites can send viruses to your pc even though you dont download anything? Shocked


Well, the simple act of visiting a site already involves downloading things. Now, depending on what the site does, and what you allow it to run in your computer (be it Flash, JavaScript, Java, or whatever else), you could end up with some form of malware. Now, you can, of course, tell your browser not to automatically run most of these things, and add-ons like NoScript should help a lot in keeping you safe. Also, I believe some browsers automatically set up sandboxes to create another level of protection against any malicious code that is allowed to run - but, better safe than sorry. Tongue
1729  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Solve Captchas for Bitcoins [Up To BTC 0.04/10,000] Perfect for Newbies on: June 25, 2015, 02:25:55 PM
Is this really worth it to spend my whole day solving captchas for $0.0008 per solved captcha? Huh

Of course not - and you're lucky if you do get the $0.0008, and not a lower rate, as the rate apparently varies with the time of day.

As others have pointed out in the other thread, signature campaigns are far more profitable, for far less work. I mean, even a Junior Member account can enter into campaigns that pay about $0.05 per post, up to 100 posts a week. Other than that, sites like Freelancer and Odesk, as bad as they are, still pay better, and offer more interesting tasks.

1731  Other / Off-topic / Re: IS UFO or ALIENS are real ? on: June 22, 2015, 01:48:01 PM
Well our understanding of 'life' is solely based on life found on Earth. What if there is a species that doesn't breathe oxygen but some other gas or doesn't breathe at all? That is also possible (including other modifications). I'm pretty sure that there are even more potentially habitable places that we've yet to discover or take into account.

Absolutely; not only do I completely agree, but I have myself presented that argument several times before, even in this very thread (for example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=798625.msg9048341#msg9048341). But you really can't take it too far in that direction, like MisO69 was doing: we don't know for a fact that life exists elsewhere; we assume, and I believe, with good reason, the chances that it does are very good, but that's about it - we can't forget we have only one data point, one example of life, and that cuts both ways.
1732  Other / Off-topic / Re: IS UFO or ALIENS are real ? on: June 21, 2015, 10:32:08 AM
Yes of course there is life on other worlds.. Math says so, therefore its true.

"The Kepler mission has discovered 1,235 exoplanets that revolve around a sun, in an area that represents around 1/400th of the Milky Way. By extrapolating these numbers, the Kepler team has estimated that there are at least 50 billion exoplanets in our galaxy — 500 million of which sit inside the habitable "Goldilocks" zones of their suns, the area that it is neither too hot nor too cold to support life.

Astronomers estimate that there are 100 billion galaxies in the universe. If you want to extrapolate those numbers, that means there are around 50,000,000,000,000,000,000 (50 quintillion) potentially habitable planets in the universe."

http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2012/02/ignoring-500-billion-galaxies-mathematics-vs-common-sense-in-the-debate-about-the-probability-of-ext.html


when i was a little boy scientist said, it is unlikely that there are planets in the habitare zone like the earth. now we have 50,000,000,000,000,000,000  Cheesy ...

And that figure probably doesn't include worlds outside the usually accepted habitable zone around a star, but still kept warm by other means - like tidal forces, as is the case of Jupiter's moon Europa or Saturn's moon Enceladus, for example.

So, it does seem very likely that life (somewhat similar to that on Earth, at least) exists elsewhere in the universe, but I wouldn't take the position that "math says so, therefore its true", MisO69. As unlikely as it might seem, for all we know, the events that led to life on Earth might have been so extraordinarily improbable and bizarre, that it hasn't happened anywhere else. Now, as I've previously mentioned, I don't really believe this to be the case, but on the other hand, I'm still waiting for my threesome with two hot alien chicks, like the other guy (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=798625.msg8984041#msg8984041).

There's a new campaign for minidice avatar + PM, you can find it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1094037.0
Might want to update OP with it.

cheers

Added on the list but is it open or closed now.

They seem to be accepting only 4 (out of 10) participants this week - something about a funding shortage, apparently. Smiley For the following weeks however, the plan seems to be to accept the full 10 members they mention in the thread. So, if you want to go through the trouble of editing the OP, I would say the campaign is closed, for now; but it should reopen soon for 6 more members, so you might as well leave it as it is, I think.

For reference:

Something came up guys. We will be paying Seuntjie to place a bot in the site, so our funds are currently out for the week.

We accepted all four of them, sorry for the misinformation.

Only four will be accepted this week.

Ello i am new and people suggest me buying account to earn with signature campaign. May i know how much can i buy with 0.1 mBTC.

With that amount, you can buy full member-sr.member.
But probably only full member you may get . Cheesy

He didn't ask what he could buy with 0.1 btc, but rather, with 0.0001 btc (0.1 mbtc). So, I'd venture to say that, with that amount, you can probably buy no account whatsoever. Tongue

Not wanting to use escrow is big red flag for me.  I hope that they find themselves suprised at how few people are willing to sign up without funds in escrow---after up/down and others, people really should't add a paid signature that doesn't have funds set aside with a third party to ensure payment.

It's especially concerning when the campaigns have month long periods, and still refuse to use escrow. Fortunately, FastBets seems to be considering changing the campaign to have weekly periods instead, and moving to pay per post, instead of fixed pay (so don't worry about updating the OP for now, Mitchełł Smiley) - at least, if something goes wrong, people won't have wasted too much time with it all.

But ultimately, I think the main reason they may end up not having a lot of participants is the pay rate is quite low, compared to other campaigns. If that wasn't the case, a lot of participants would still join, I'm afraid.

Besides, a lot of the symbology (they're complaining about in the first video you linked to, at least) is included in games precisely because of the attention it receives, and ultimately because most people find those symbols interesting - not because of some great conspiracy involving every game and film producer.

1740  Economy / Economics / Re: Greece has made an important concession on: June 13, 2015, 11:03:50 AM
I guess we all agree that Greece has had incompetent political leaders for many years (just like today), but if Greece is a democracy, and it's been one for quite a few years, the people somehow, should be responsible.

While I would like to agree with you on this (there certainly is a lot of corruption and tax evasion there), I think we all know that's not really how things work; under most circumstances, the general public has little or no knowledge of, or influence in, the way countries are run. Further, as bryant.coleman pointed out, the people are being held responsible, in a way: their standard of living has plummeted - they are suffering quite a lot (and have been for several years now).





IMO Greece is falling in debt hole and never gonna pay off! The lenders haven't realized their mistakes yet! They won't be able to give out  unending loans!

Of course they realize Greece will never be able to pay back at this rate; the IMF, for example, pretty much said so by itself. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean they are ready to change their extreme neo-liberal commitments - something that will hopefully begin to change once Podemos wins in Spain later this year / early next year (the most likely outcome of the elections).
