You can't change yours unless you could convince the admin to change yours
or
You could make another account and start over

Yes you can, but you have to have "Donator" status, which requires donating 50 BTC.

Wrong. Donating 50 BTC will get you a 'VIP' position and 'Donator' position for 10 BTC.

That looks right. And AFAIK, you need to be a VIP in order to change your title yourself.
As I noticed the following on the "Donate" page of the forum:

Quote
If you donate 10 BTC, you can get a special "Donator" title and a green "who's online" color. If you donate 50 BTC, you get VIP status and the ability to create a custom title for yourself. Both Donators and VIPs also get access to an exclusive forum section.

https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html

Yes. You need to be VIP to get a title and to change username, you need to be Donator or VIP or Staff.

Thank you, theymos! It looks good now.

-snip-

I also agree with what others said a few pages back though, it doesn't seem right for users with a single positive feedback to have a +10 score after a year of doing nothing, I definitely think it creates a sense of false trust, at least if people don't go and check out the user's actual ratings.

I also agree. Something should be done about this.

I have heard it is a pity that you do not believe me , because I was telling the truth Sad
there is no way to check if you are telling truth or not
why someone will risk lending money to a newbie when they have no collateral to cover their loan in case you default
lenders trust collateral not truth

I wrote . I give the connection with me and ID data

It won't do any benefit to lenders. You should provide collateral to receive this loan. If not, it is better to lock this thread.

The best proof is going down there and seeing with your own eyes.
All else can be faked.

yeah right like you can fake mined blocks

so why havent they done so if thats so easy to fake?

but if you insist on paying me to go down there i can find a couple of days just let me know

Faking mined blocks? Undecided Can you please be more specific?

Used the BIT-X Bitcoin Debit MasterCard to withdraw $160 from the local ATM. These are the charges:

Fiat from ATM: BTC0.701
BIT-X COMMISSION: BTC0.01
Master Card Commission: BTC0.02103
Total: BTC0.73203

Overall, quite satisfied with the services. Will definitely use again.  Grin

That's around 4%, which I am pleased with Smiley.

Can you please comment on the BIT-X ATM withdrawal commission.

i dont get it, why when i search for an address or tx with the first 6 to 10 caracters, blockchain's search tool is always unable to find it?Huh

True. Blockchain.info and I think other explorers need all characters. Else, it can't. You may want to give goochain.net a try if you want to search address with first few characters.

ah so it is a default on their side?
i switched to blockr.io but thx.

It is not a fault. Rather, an unmet feature.

I would like to get a free vouch. I don't want to pay $30 to you upfront because of your reputation. I will pay you if the card is working and there is no problem with it.

By the way, what is your legal status about this card?

If you want you can order card for $30, unfortunately there are no free samples to check it. If you will want order more, then you can get discount. We are shipping them to other countries also.

What do you mean about it? The cards can be purchased by anyone and use by everyone who is more than 13, because they are anonymous.

Sorry. Not interested. Your company isn't known and there is no vouch from considerable users. You should at least give a free card to a person and let him share his experience. By the way, I am not asking for a "free" sample, instead requesting to get the card first and payment after checking the card.
1833  Other / Meta / Re: Increasing my activity without waiting for 2 weeks on: May 20, 2015, 03:28:18 PM
Potential activity= the amount of activity accumulated after several active 2 weeks period. For a 2 week period to be considered as active, 1 post is needed. Hence, only a few is required to accumulate a lot of unredeemed activity points. If you look closely at those accounts, the post are spaced average 2 weeks apart.

You mean for example, if I make just 1 post in a 2 week period for ~3 months, which means 12 weeks in total, so 6 posts x 2 weeks period, then am I entitled to get the remaining points collected if I make many posts in the 1st week of 4th month???

I mean after 3 months, my activity should be at 84, so if I make remaining 78 posts in the first week of 4th month, will I get my activity reach straight away to 84???

If you make 1 post in every 14 days period 6 times(3 months), then

Your activity = 6.
Your potential activity = 14 * 6 = 84.

You can get remaining 78 (84 - 6) activity points at anytime by making 78 posts more.

@Netpyder,
Can you explain this in more detail??? Would like a complete explanation on this...
And I think Mods should have a look into such cases as how activity reaches such levels, is it good???
Also, does the 14 day thing only matter here or it also takes time into consideration???

when is the next activity date? ill make one and it will be a faster explanation

^To what end? If ponzis are gambling, why subjugate them to a subforum? AFAIK, dice games don't have a special sub, neither does poker.

The Gambling board was cluttered with ponzi/HYIP threads. To avoid this, a new board was created. Search "ponzi" in Meta and you can see many threads suggesting to create new board. Number of dice games and/or poker threads aren't high as ponzis/HYIPs were/are.

And I'm still at a loss re. legacy finance forums not having sections dedicated to promotion of ponzis, or ones selling warez. Could you opine on the matter?

-snip-
But seriously, people are way better off with their own forums. Then you don't have to deal with someone else's rules. We don't have the resources nor desire to cater to the Alt Coin ponzi communities. Bitcointalk offers a basic board for people to make their announcement, find their community members, and then migrate to a place where they can discuss uninterrupted by others.

I am not an expert in this, so I can't comment. Two things I am sure are ponzis/HYIPs is illegal and theymos doesn't do anything silly. There must be some lawys which allows a dedicated board for ponzis/HYIPs in a forum.
1837  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Blockchain transaction issue on: May 20, 2015, 03:00:04 PM
i dont understand one thing why my tx-2 and tx-3 are waiting coz of tx-1 they paid much more miner fee for tx-2 (0.0011) why still dependent on tx-1.

The structure of your transaction is tx-1 -> tx-2 -> tx-3. This means that Bitcoin spent in tx-3 is from tx-1. If tx-1 isn't confirmed, the balance in the address you sent 0.01BTC to in tx-1 will have 0.01BTC less than current balance which makes tx-2 invalid. When tx-2 is invalid, balance in the address you sent Bitcoin to in tx-2 will be less than current balance which makes tx-3 invalid.

This is the way Bitcoin is. A Bitcoin transaction uses one or more transaction output. Here, if tx-1 is dropped, the transaction output used in tx-2 won't be valid anymore because there is no such transaction output. It will be like sending 0.xxBTC from nothing. How can miners confirm this transaction which sents 0.xx Bitcoin from nothing? It can't. so miners will drop tx-2 and then tx-3.
1838  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Blockchain transaction issue on: May 20, 2015, 02:42:37 PM
Your transaction bcc1c6efc8be8b9c68d9a...(tx-2) is using an unconfirmed UTXO from transaction 366a5ab796ccd468c9ea...(tx-1). tx-1 need to be confirmed first but I doubt because it is a zero-fee transaction. Once tx-1 is confirmed, tx-2 and e7d72458a8448bcef3afd...(tx-3) will be confirmed as their priority is good.

P.S. Link to tx-1 is https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/366a5ab796ccd468c9eae69a086658e032d3d9724f6c38576f65ed0876d6628b.

ok thanks Muhammed Zakir,

is there no way i can cancel my unconfirmed transaction now since it will take time now and my tx-2 belongs to a game so if does not get confirms soon i'll lose my btc then. Please let me know if there could be any solution to this.

No. You will have to either wait till miners drop tx-1 or accept it. If tx-1 is confirmed, other two transactions may be confirmed. But if tx-1 is dropped, tx-2 will be invalid and as tx-2 is invalid, tx-3 will be invalid. Therefore, all 3 transactions will be dropped and no, you won't lost any Bitcoin.

Only thing you can do now is hope for the best.

1840  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to sign a message?! on: May 20, 2015, 01:22:52 PM
Can somebody please explain to me how to sign message with Xapo wallet?

You can't. I highly recommend you to use a desktop(or mobile) wallet. If you want use an online wallet, use Blockchain.info. Other online wallets are insecure.

But I need the address on my Xapo wallet to sign a message Huh
btw, why is other online wallets beside Blockchain.info are insecure?
Xapo wallet does not support signing using their addresses, since it is shared (AFAIK).

Also, the reason online wallets are considered insecure is that you have to share private key with third party (think of you sharing your home key). Only blockchain.info stores private key in your device (they encrypt your private key on your computer and then upload to server, so you still have to trust bc.info to encrypt your key), that's why MZ suggested you use bc.info (or desktop wallet).

But if we stores private key in our device, it means if we lost our private so we lost everything.
That's why Xapo don't want to share the private key, so if the private key lost Xapo will refund our balance. (CMIIW)

Do you tell another person to create a bank account for you and tell him/her to withdraw money when you want? Or do you create a bank account yourself and never share with another person?
