my waiting time is down to 62secs now i don't even notice if there is any such limitation but just tried posting straight after one post just to check the time .. but after 15activity it is down to max 90 secs.

Yeah, it's annoying when you're at 360, but you don't notice it when it gets to a minute really as it normally takes you a minute to find or type another post. Not sure what I'm at now.

I don't trust these vanity address creaters or paper wallets. Do everything like this offline and only start with a small bit of funds being sent.

I've accepted an invitation to do a question and answer session at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) in Washington, DC on Thursday, February 6, 2014.
Congratulations on being invited to speak at the CFR, it's an honor and a milestone for the bitcoin community.

Really? How so, exactly?

Is it because they are a powerful bunch? The Mafia is also a powerful group of people; if they invited Gavin to speak, would you consider that an "honor and a milestone for the bitcoin community"?

Or is it because you believe they are nice, honest people?



Well, it means they are taking note, regardless of their true intentions.

Instead of looking at BTC in relation to USD you should look around and gaze upon the fiat massacre happening all over the world: argentinian peso sinking, venezuelans, ditto, turkish lira, etc. So if you're not an american and you are positioned in BTC you are quite comfy.

Maybe one day we will peg fiat to Bitcoin lol. I wonder if we'll see Bitcoin being adopted more in some of these struggling economies?

The end of the bid war for adds slots on bitcointalk is very close, makeBTC has the third biggest bid so it is still looking very good :

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=434288.40

That will be 1 200 000 impressions on bitcointalk forum which may bring 10BTC in deposits in about 9days, starting on Friday.
Each time someone sells its level it means that new money takes the place of old money through the bonus and new money will probably withdraw less than new money at first so when we pass the 16th level we may see a lot of the income reinvested and again a lot of old money that leaves through the bonuses..

Assuming they allow the ad. Do the admins know what it's for or allow these type of ads?

They don't endorse the websites that they advertise, they will allow the add, Theymos has ask makeBTC to send some money in advance to allow him to bid

I think there's a difference between endorsing something and essentially promoting a scam. Theymos asked for the advance probably to prove he was a serious bidder.

Do you live in the Netherlands? I'm sure some coffee shops will accept it soon if they don't already, and maybe some prostitutes will as well.

What do you think about Doge? Will it rise in power soon? and Will it be int he Top Three Coins in the market?

What do you mean by power? It'll never be up to much just because of the marketcap. It's not a wise investment for the future, but maybe you can have some fun with it now, but you're not gonna become rich off it.

Hello spartacus,
I am Smileyftw and i am looking for escrow services
pm me

Choose one from the trusted list. Don't deal with escrowers who have little or no trades. That's counter-productive.

837  Other / Off-topic / Re: First bitcoin related suicide? on: February 05, 2014, 03:56:47 PM
man just call 911 and get the police to take you to a psych ward for suicide watch then claim disability and get SSI because you hear voices in your head telling you to kill yourself.

Unfortunately the emergency services tend to be quite useless with people merely feeling suicidal - they MIGHT respond well to an actual attempt, but for mere suicidal ideation (the medical term for "thinking about suicide and thinking it's a good idea") you're better off going straight to a psych.

Not to mention most people who are suicidal do not have "voices in their head" but rather a severe lack of serotonin triggered through a random biochemical glitch or from a life event - or for the truly unlucky both (for example, someone with bipolar who has a bad life event).

The nasty part about depression is it hijacks self-esteem and makes the victim believe that nobody will care (it's a common pattern to see people claim they're doing their friends and family a favour by removing themselves from the situation), when in reality most people have SOMEONE who does care and would be hurt - which is why the best approach is always to encourage people who talk about suicide to talk to their friends and family in person.

Of course some threats are just attention seeking or even plain old trolling, but from personal experience it's best to assume the threat is real and encourage people to seek help - i'd rather be fooled by a few trolls than see someone die who could have been saved, especially as i've had friends who took their own life after people thought they were joking.

You sir are 100% INCORRECT!!! Law Enforcement WILL respond to situation like this. It's amazing that this thread went 5 pages and no one bothered to mention that maybe, just maybe, they should ask the Mod to notify ANY law enforcement agency (even anonymously by friggin email). All the Mod would have to do is obtain his IP, Google its location and anonymously send an email containing his post and his IP to the local police. If the IP is valid and not a proxy, Law Enforcement  would be able to obtain the posters address expeditiously without a warrant because it would be considered "Exigent Circumstances" and negate the need for warrant - at least if it's in the US. I can't speak for any other country. And before anyone starts with the b.s. about snitching. This isn't about a dime bag or other nonsense. Someone made a post that in substance said that they wanted to kill themself. ---- if his initial post is legit, your intention is to save his life.

I did my part and notified the Mod --"report to Mod". It's now in the hands of BitcoinTalk since I can't obtain the poster's IP myself.

Maybe I'm over reacting, but it's outrageous that someone would be posting information about things that they truly aren't knowledgeable about rather than attempting to actually do something about the situation to help the individual. Maybe he's just a scammer trying to get free coins with a sob story, which is more likely the case, but what if he's not.

If there's no actual plan in place or no attempt then police will in fact not usually be of a lot of use - I have direct personal experience in this area and know what i'm talking about. In my experience (and i've had to handle way too many cases of suicidal people to count) law enforcement will respond if someone is RIGHT THERE AND THEN making an attempt, but otherwise will not respond to pure suicidal ideation.

The way to help people is to get them to see a psychiatrist.

huh? Where are you located, the US? My local PD would respond (and I believe most accredited departments have to). There may not be any action taken e.g., escort to hospital for psych eval, but they WILL respond. LE's job doesn't all revolve around criminal activity. Their purpose is to protect and serve; meaning provide service to their citizenship. That service comes in the form of changing flat tires, escorting funeral processions, giving the elderly a ride to the grocery store, performing lifesaving CPR on a bloody baby a mother pushed out on her living room floor, and the list goes on. This is the type of service they swear to uphold. No, it's not in the job description, but protecting the lives and serving the people is what they do. And they do because they care, not because of the lousy ass paycheck.

I'd like to know which departments won't respond to conduct a welfare check if someone is having suicidal thoughts. Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. I have direct personal experience with LE. I know what I'm talking about... and I'd be willing to put some coins on it. I'm that confident.

You can't just ring the police and tell them to take somebody away. It doesn't work like that. They need to be an apparent danger to themselves or the public. A lawsuit waiting to happen would be getting kidnapped by the police just because somebody reported you as being depressed or dangerous.

Just a question,if someone have for example 120 activity,how much does he get per week?

You have 126 now  Cheesy. Does anyone know what date the two week period starts for the activity?

I noticed it either updated today or yesterday. So the next period will be roughly 2 weeks from now.
