Well there is a sticked thread about that too Newbie Restrictions You can only post in the Newbie and Local sub-forums till you have made one post and waited 4 hours. This post must be substantial: at least several sentences. The other two restrictions are you need 1 post to be able to send a PM and 10 posts to put a link in your sig. You can only post once every 360 seconds to start and there are a few other things that trigger this timer such as logging in and searching.

gabi your a moron and a dick. This stupid rule where we can only post to this lame ass section cuz we are noobs is f c ing retarded, RETARDED LAME
Actually it is stopping tons of bots, spammers and scammers, wich is important in a place were people deal with sound money. Very important. Imagine bots auto-registering tons of accounts and instantly spamming their shit everywhere

I understand that new people may miss the rule, but things like "When i signed up to this it didnt tell me that I couldnt post anywhere" are not nice.

Erm no i was busy reading posts on the site and wanted to contribute, not everyone is a spammer, knobhead or newbie. Thanks for the hospitable welcome wtf.
Your first post is an attempt to blame the forum for something wich is YOUR fault Dunno, it is not exactly a nice thing to do, blaming someone else for your fault.

When i signed up to this it didnt tell me that I couldnt post anywhere Bullshit. You accepted that rule when you registered, and yes it was written there, but guess what, you just registered without even reading what you accepted. Disgusting.

This is a big news hmmm.... Another story saying a business will accept Bitcoins when actually they are using Bitpay as a payment processor. If i pay US based Widget Inc £100 for good through Paypal, does that mean they are accepting payments in £, or just providing a method for my £ to be transfered to their $ account easily?
Maybe its just semantics, but in my view a business isn't accepting BTC unless they are taking a BTC transaction directly to their wallet.
So since i'm european zynga should accept my euro and not convert them in dollars? They should also accept pound sterling without converting them? Accepting the other hundreds currencies without converting them? And what would they be supposed to do with bitcoin? Pay taxes? Pay salaries?

You stated so indirectly. In order to steal coins from most transactions, ECDSA must be broken.
I never stated it, directly or indirectly. Nah you must not break it Yes we should. Because it is wrong. Reverse other people's transactions Send coins that never belonged to him The attacker CAN do these things. Are you claiming that somebody broke ECDSA? Where did i exactly claimed that? Please point me to that Because i never said that I just said the attacker can spend coins owned by other people Gabi, please tell me how it's possible to spend coins you don't own. It isn't possible. Unless you actually think that reversing a transaction is actually your victim sending coins back you you? It's just not the way it works. It is so easy and yes it is possible: just rewrite the chain from when these coins were mined. You will find the blocks, so you will have mined them, so they will be your. Thus, the other transactions never existed. That is how a 51% attack work, you can rewrite the chain as you wish. No need to break ECDSA. You just make it so you mined these coins. So you own them. 51% attack.

I think it's necessary to highlight here: no miner can change the blockchain history or steal anyone's bitcoin even he has more than 51% of the hash rate. What he can do is only make several blocks mined recently become orphan. It means 1) he can try double spending, but not easy after enough number of confirmations. If there're too many confirmations, it takes long time for his fork to catch up. 2) he can block some accounts to make any transactions, but at a very high price. He has not make every block including that transaction orphan.
That's almost all he could do with more than 51% of hash rate.
True. Double spending would probably be the most that would be accomplished, as well as orphaning a few blocks mined by others. You can only double spend coins you own, so to even make a double spend worthwhile, you would already need to own a substantial amount if Bitcoin. If you did own that amount of Bitcoin, you probably wouldn't want to upset its value. False, false, false. He can steal anyone's bitcoin and yes he can change the blockchain history. Upset the value? Exactly what banks and governments would like!

What will be the cause if we don't hide and protect our wallets?
Will we not face legal issues if we use different wallets?
"legal issues"?

While you had yours all year earning you interest and not the government.
Banks are paying interest again? Didn't you notice bitcoin went from 100 to 1000 in a year?
