The Champions League can't just depend on one player. even though messi is a sensational player but depending on Messi in the Champions League and blaming him when he fails is a condition that is quite childish I think.
This requires team harmony and not just an individual thing when it comes to bigger competitions.
Champions league is a tough competition, PSG are still yet to possess the qualities needed before they can emerge winner for the trophy. Leo Messi is big name in football and his presence on the pitch frightened his opponents, he's always one step ahead of everyone on the pitch. Pouring blames on Leo Messi whenever the Parisians get eliminated from the champions league is probably not a good idea, he's not the only player on the pitch, besides he's frontline and what happens to the defendlines? They're the ones to be blamed to defend poorly against their opponents, leading to their exits from UCL.

I don't see any concrete evidence of linked accounts here, P2P transactions between multiple accounts are more likely to occur outside of the forum if the accounts in question are from the same region or share the same local board. Nigerians' only way of converting BTC to Naira is through P2P, and it's possible that 2-3 people are using the same Merchants on P2p exchange to deposit their weekly earnings and receive Naira in return; your findings fit perfectly into my explanation; the accounts could be using the same Marchant, but I personally don't see any connection here.

Like I said they are free to explain here. What you said is also possible. I admit I have to change neutral a bit and will edit some part but it will stay as a warning to anyone dealing with them until they come and explain this with proofs.

 A simple neutral is not a bad ideal until the accounts gives some explanations but my case is likely to be the reason looking at the amount of BTC the receiver wallet is currently hodling

https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/33GPgbaJuSaMyBo8tuhe6HhRunptrE8xVS The wallet in question hasn't received coin since last month and hasn't sent out coin in over a year, suggesting that it's a merchant wallet; these accounts join signature to feed rather than to save earnings. The wallet contains approximately $4k, which is approximately 2-2.5 years of signature savings for Full member rank. c'mon



Poker player If you are unsure and don't know what to do, use neutral; additionally, because this is an ongoing case with no conclusion, your red is inappropriate.

The word EITHER indicates that you have no idea what is going on and are unsure that these accounts are linked.

This appears to be an attack on a specific region, which is not acceptable.

If you think that I took users from Nigerians local board and connected them then you are wrong. I started with simple wallet digging is that's all. I have connected 3 accounts with martyns out of which 2 users haven't posted in Nigerian board ever. So its a humble request to not make such remarks which are not true.

LordHermes has been and continues to be one of the early users who fought for the local board, he has many posts there https://ninjastic.space/post/56982382 and the two others may have their own personal reasons why they choose to stay away from the local board, there are three legendary members who are Nigerians but also disassociate themselves from the local board and their secrets are safe with me

Account selling undermines our Merit system as well because Account selling is similar to buying Merit. Buying Merit is not allowed, too.
+1
This is the strongest argument I have ever seen on BTT in favour of tagging sold accounts.

This is a bogus argument; there are tons of people who buy accounts with literally zero merit (Newbies rank) and zero reputation and build them to the highest rank; this is the internet, and there are people who prefer to join a forum or social media with accounts that have no connection to their real life details, not because they intend to scam with them, but because they do not trust the internet with their sensitive information. Are you aware that this forum stores the first registrant's IP address? Furthermore, the forum, like any other social media, does not prohibit buying of accounts

The DT system is only for scammers and high risk trade zones; tagging someone with zero scam history, who bought an account to participate in discussion and forum activities is clearly an abuse of the system.

If we wake up one day to find out that Yahoo62278, LoyceV or Royse777's accounts were bought, are we going to disregard all of their positive contributions and the current people behind these accounts and start tagging them to ruin them just because they were bought? Then something is wrong with our cognitive abilities.


Op you should have added a poll

I've followed a pattern (Receive Signature earning and move to some exchange or other address) and I have got some more accounts connected here:
/Snip
Everyone should be given chance to explain themselves so I asking @blackened515, @LordHermes and @omgitsmehehe to post here to explain the situation here and will see how the community sees this.

I don't see any concrete evidence of linked accounts here, P2P transactions between multiple accounts are more likely to occur outside of the forum if the accounts in question are from the same region or share the same local board. Nigerians' only way of converting BTC to Naira is through P2P, and it's possible that 2-3 people are using the same Merchants on P2p exchange to deposit their weekly earnings and receive Naira in return; your findings fit perfectly into my explanation; the accounts could be using the same Marchant, but I personally don't see any connection here.

And as for the distribution of merits, whatever anyone does with his or her merits is none of your business as long as he or she is not trading them. Backscratching is permitted here.

This appears to be an attack on a specific region, which is not acceptable.


So, I've taken an aggressive approach on the subject.

I've updated my trust list, btw.

You're abusing the DT system; tagging a neg does not justify your claims; just because you have one does not mean everyone should.

Situations like this, we don't even require a second thought; sell it off and solve the problem. That's the most important part of saving: for our savings to save us in the future in times of need. If you keep on calculating whether or not you are to stake your savings over saving the girl's life, you might end up regretting your actions for the rest of your life. Your question is just so unreasonable so the best option will be to liquidate your bitcoin investment and save your little sister. what  the reason for us to invest in bitcoin, to get reach, and to solve our problems.
Different problems comes with entirely different risks, bitcoin is for the public and those who embrace development. I've triggered the sell option several times specifically during my school days, when I eas really in need to pay off my textbooks and got nothing left because I've exhausted my savings in fiat currency, I switched to Bitcoin and sold some pieces of the coin when it was still very much considerable amount in the bull season. There's absolutely nothing wrong with selling bitcoin when it's have higher advantages in our daily lives.
1607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 26, 2023, 03:11:07 AM
Tomorrow we will have the second leg of the Semifinal of the Italian cup.

It's time for Inter Juve again, the result of the 1st leg was 1-1
Juventus, I am sure, will be the winner in this match because seeing their enthusiasm is very good when the point deduction they have is canceled, so that the players have a high sense of enthusiasm to win. Inter must remain careful, and because of the possibility that Juventus will exert all their strength in this match, Inter must also keep trying so that it is not easily beaten by Juventus.
Juventus and Inter Milan are elite clubs in Seria A and they've both won the Scudetto in the past years. Seria A clubs are edging higher in top competition this season, two Seria A club facing each other in the semi final of UCL and also Coppa Italia. I've place my bet in favor of Juventus, they need to grab a hold of a trophy this season. Juventus had a 1-1 draw tie against Inter Milan in the first leg of the coppa Italia at Allianz stadium. A tough fight to proceed to the final and it's really one of the top competition for the Old lady's this season.

Aren't you the same person whitelisting them back to the forum now? how many of those users became a big part of the forum well I don't expect you to answer

Sorry Op for going off-topic

I don't know why but I feel like you are trying to trigger him (good try). None of them are paid jobs. He is doing it voluntarily and he is not responsible for what they do after. Most of His whitelisted users doing good. He often posts the Ban %. If you are trying to trigger him, I am sorry but he is unlikely to pay attention to you as he proved himself as a thick-skinned gang leader.

We were just having a chat and he felt it wasn't the proper place because it was a little off-topic from the OP, I simply made my perspective plain to him, it's nothing personal, and BTW, we're still on the same track. Leave it to the moderator to decide and quit pressing.

I have to ask out of curiosity, and due to my own thread on the issue, which AI detectors are you going to use, and how are you weighing the results? Are there different levels of likeliness, or will it only post replies in threads that come back as "highly likely" to be AI-generated?

I use at least three different AI checking websites. Or more than three if even one of them doubts that the text is not completely AI-generated. I do not use the GPTZero website - I had too many false positives with it.

This is somewhat preferable to the previous plan, but my concern is what would happen if everyone disregards the JAPI response and proceeds with their discussion regardless of whether it was generated by AI or not, similar to this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5448187.msg62145641#msg62145641. Since there are currently no explicit forum rules against AI and no 99% proved AI detector tools, nobody appears to care and the moderator won't lock a thread just because JAPI says so. there is a light at the end of the tunnel but the challenges looks bigger.

Atalanta really deserved the victory from Roma, because Roma performance was very poor from the beginning of the match till the end of the match that made them to defeated Roma 3-1 to embraced the three points. I think, Roma coach need to work hard to help the team to return back to second position in the Italian league table, because their next match is going to be a tough match which they need to prepare well so that they will experience victory from the match. Roma strikers are doing well but their defense and midfield are not too strong compared from the beginning of this tournament that made them to defeated many strong teams which they can still do it in the remaining matches to improve their points.
AS Roma got defeated and it wasn't their expectations in the game, with full domination of the game. Jose Mourinho was disappointed with match results because his intended action is to win a spot in the champions league next season, mistakes from his players. They got too comfortable with the ball and forget to net a goal when they got the chances to levelled the game. Atalanta on the other hand were serious and never planned for a draw, the way they attack and defend their territory was incredible, not easily invaded by Roma.

For the JARPI bot, no matter how hard you spin those texts manually, they won't be original, and have you considered the amount of posts this bot will be posting per day since it triggers every time someone asks a question, or are there limitations I'm not aware of, this AI thing is getting out of hand, these tools would render some of our education sector useless, resulting in the loss of jobs if nothing is done now.

I haven't ran JARPI ever since the manual experiment earlier last week.
Okay, what were the response speed and success rate? I appreciate the time and effort you have put into this, but I'm concerned that this bot will hijack every thread and post thousands of times per day, this is one part you are yet to address.

I can't check every individual on the list, but I'm sure most became active forum users
Cute. But wrong. I checked the first 10, and 9 of them have 0 posts (AKA Nuked). One of them has 580 Activity now, and 0 Merit because bounty spam isn't worth Merit.

How about you check all this links before ticking the wrong box for me? I bet many survived and are doing pretty good now.

Quote
and those who were nuked moved on to open new accounts. Nothing was solved
Hundreds of farmed account were Nuked and their IP-addresses got evil point for it. Of course there will always be spammers, but every account that gets banned is one spammer less. The fact that there's much less spam now than we had 4 years ago confirms it's working.

I'll end this discussion here. If you want to continue this, feel free to open another topic for it.

The forum would be better without such users.

That's why we have mods; report them and let them do their thing; they follow the rules; 6 ugly shit shouldn't get anyone banned.

That's a different case: DdmrDdmr's username came up in an automated search, which wasn't meant to be exhaustive. Luckily, the Mods did their checks. Around the same time hundreds of users got banned based on the list I provided.

It's the same thing; you pushed hard to have everyone on that list nuked. Fortunately, the moderators did their jobs; I can't check every individual on the list, but I'm sure most became active forum users, and those who were nuked moved on to open new accounts. Nothing was solved

Forum Mods can update the forum rules over time, especially for AI. Some people use AI to write posts
Like Edcrypto91. I reported 4 of his posts, and 6 of them got deleted. But he didn't get banned, which is disappointing. Maybe he got a temporary ban, but I can't know that. Chat AI spam is plagiarism, but without clear source it's hard to prove. If shitting all over the tech boards isn't enough to get this user banned, reporting him feels like a waste of time. He's now on my ignore list, which makes one less user to report his posts.

You don't expect the admin to ban someone for 6 nasty posts, do you? Like you said AI written post is difficult to prove if it is plagiarism or not because it is nearly impossible to cite the main source, so they are automatically classified as spam and get deleted overtime, there are tons of users with over 100 deleted spam posts who are still here going about their unusual spamming business. Ignoring him is the best you can do in this scenario; we shouldn't make the forum tough and uncomfortable for newbies; I'm sure most of us didn't start out well, and everyone learns with time.

Remember when you asked the Admin to ban DdmrDdmr for spamming when he was a newbie? Today, he is regarded as the best thing that has ever happened to the forum. patience!

Now it becomes evident how lucky Juventus Turin is that the penalty of 15 points was taken back. With three losses in a row and the lucky punch by Napoli in the last minute, Juventus would be totally lost in the fight for the Champions League qualifiers. Yes they would have had their back door with the Europa League, but I thought that they are going to perform well in Serie A and try to get their ticket there instead of betting on the Europa League. Due to the fact that almost all teams behind Napoli have been pretty weak this season anyway, they are still lucky and make it into the CL either way. They need to take some action and bring about major changes to the whole club as soon as possible. I don't know whether the rumors are realistic that Zidane wants to coach a club that is literally in shambles.
Juventus are lucky enough to be in the top four spot, despite their inconsistency in games. Zinedine Zidane wouldn't want to destroy the reputation he have taken lengthy years to build. There are several clubs that place bids for the frenchman, he declined all their proposals and he's just discreet on his next move. But I don't expect him to accept Juventus managerial role because the club is passing through a tough time, this is likely the right time for Zidane to step in. It's very rare to watch a manager exits one of the best club in the world and settled for struggling clubs, it's totally impossible, exceptionally if the coach in question have any remorse to display in the club.

Yes the Netherlands is experiencing a decline in performance. The regeneration process carried out by the Dutch did not work properly. Now The Orange is back in training with Ronald Koeman. Koeman made his tragic debut with the Dutch national team in the Euro 2024 qualifiers until he swallowed the worst result.

The main cause of the defeat was defense. The Dutch defense looked very fragile when Kylian Mbappe managed to look stunning in that match. If you don't want to get minor results anymore, then Koeman must immediately find the right solution to overcome the problems in the Orange squad.
Thrilling victory for Didier Deschamps and his players. He's proven to be worthy to manage the France national team and there won't be setback for the Frenchmen. Netherlands faced a top country, France are probably among the nations with the best squad, so deriving a win was impossible for Ronald Koeman's men. The backlines of Netherlands was easily intruded by France and Kylian Mbappe don't jeopardize his goal scoring opportunities in competition.

Liverpool has been performing consistently in recent times. I absolutely agree that they look a lot more convincing compared to Tottenham. Basically what happened with Liverpool towards the start of the season is currently happening with Tottenham. We also need to remember that if Liverpool is able to win the next match, which is against Bournemouth, Liverpool is going to get ahead of Tottenham on the table.

Considering the fact that Bournemouth is in the 20th position of the table, I will say that Liverpool is going to win the match.

Liverpool gradually bouncing back to winning ways after their remarkable victory at Anfield in their previous game against manchester united. Bournemouth is not an exception for the red's and this time, they're doing everything right for the club. Jurgen Klopp's formation seems to be working for the team presently, I don't think they'll give any chance to Bournemouth because it's definitely going to be a deserved win for them. Tottenham Hotspur are having some challenges in the club, but it will surpassed them with time.

If you look at the current ranking, Manchester City is in second place with 55 points. While Arsenal top the standings with 60 points, of course the game against Newcastle will be an opportunity for Manchester City to catch up, let alone play as the host, my prediction is that Manchester City can take full points in the match later with a thin score.

It seems that Manchester City is more favored. It also seems difficult to see a draw although Newcastle also do not want to drop points. a bit tough game but I'll bet on manchester city.  Wink
Leading teams in the Premier League battle it out for points against stronger opponents. Newcastle's recent and prior performances have not been at their best. The first leg of the tie between City and the Magpies finished in a 3-3 stalemate. I believe that this time the shared points from the two teams are in reverse. Pep Guardiola and Eddie Howe will shake hands before kickoff at Etihad Stadium. City is the betting favorite because of their dominance in the Premier League and their pursuit of Arsenal..

Of course, it would be sent to the cold wallet address of my friend so as for him not to lose his coins. Because remember, not my keys, not my coins. In addition to gifting bitcoin to my friend, I would pay for him to visit the bitcoin museum. That would give them a proper feel for what bitcoin is and how important it is to me. No matter how small, I encourage this act. It is one of the easiest ways to propagate its adoption.
Bitcoin is a very important gift to any trader out there, especially gifted when it's bull season, it results in gigantic profits. Bitcoin is the current digital age for our present time, we all should be able to embrace it and understand how it works entirely. Special moments are meant for memorable gifts, I would be so grateful if I'm gifted some pieces of bitcoin on my birthday coming up, I will store that event in memory.

No doubt with Manchester United performance is quit well after leaving by Cristiano Ronaldo and several attacking player success scored many goals after Ronaldo move to Al Nassr. Remaining eight points awhile on current standing from Arsenal seems not problem for Manchester United because on confidence performance with first EFL Cup tittle in this season.

I think have potential for Manchester United keep in tittle race or finish on 2nd position standing in this season, with 14 matches left in Primer League has potential for Erik Tan Hag bring Manchester United glory and back to Champion League competition next season.
The fact that Erik Ten Hag helped Manchester United win the Carabao Cup by defeating Newcastle United 2–0 and raising the trophy in front of the crowd at Wembley will always be remembered as one of the club's most memorable moments. Manchester United is at present the best team in the Premier League. For Erik's legacy in Old Trafford, it's a fresh start. With a third-place finish in the standings and their participation in the Premier League title fight, nothing this season will be too challenging for the players, who are all at the peak of their abilities.

Manchester United success get first trophy after waiting more than six years and Erik Tan Hag become first manager with first season give United trophy, seems not bad with EFL Cup trophy because left many attempt with  Primer League, FA Cup and Manchester United still participants on Europe League 16th round against Real Betis.

Under Erik Tan Hag, Manchester United have good progress with consistency performance in Primer League and lead awhile on 3rd standing position, with one match left and behind 6 points from Manchester City not close chance yet finish on 2nd or take Arsenal as top position standing in Primer League right now.
Manchester united gladly accept their new trophy after a lengthy period of time since the red devil's celebrated. Wembley stadium was filled of memorable display from manchester united fans and Erik ten Hag just prrof himself once more as the confident coach that will brings more trophy to the club. This is just the beginning for their glory titles, more incoming as they're going to strive harder to lift another trophy.

Despite all this flaws seen the delay with Graham Potter's sack is all that matters more to me honestly, why have Chelsea delayed this for so long ?
This would have been a good chance for Antonio Conte to defeat Chelsea but his still not back from the surgery I guess. London derbies are must watch one must not miss.

Fulham are in a decent form, just as nobody expected they're still chasing for the space of European football for next season. Everything seems possible if they can be consistent.
Chelsea in a terrible condition this season with back to back defeats which is totally unacceptable by the fans despite their proactive actions in the transfer window. Graham Potter needs to get the necessary tactical strategy to bounced back to winning ways for the club. Tottenham Hotspur are a little bit underrated this season after recording poor performance in league games. Furthermore, we should expect good performance from both clubs.
