As an FYI, if you are a merit source, this will not account for your source merit, and will only display your accumulated sMerit.

This is a script I will be using. I like not having to deal with a popup every time I give merit.

I would like the ability to click on a link on a post that starts a PM to the author of the post that says:

One click links on a post to view a person's post history and thread creation history would also be nice. As would a one click link to a user's gettopics link from a post.

I strongly prefer something that can be run from greesemonkey.

Thanks.

The Iran government has recently threatened to carry out something very similar in recent months, and has made these threats multiple times.

The logic of how this would get the US to lift sanctions is these attacks could disrupt the global economy by preventing oil from passing through the area of the attacks, increasing oil prices. If the US wants to be able to have oil resume safely passing through the area, it will need to lift sanctions. The theory is that Iran is basically using extortion with actual and the threat of further violence/property damage if sanctions are not lifted. 

I am not sure that post was even on topic for the thread it was posted in.

My issue with the post is it was posted as text without any kind of attribution. In my experience, most memes are shared as pictures so they can be quickly shared. Most bounty campaigns have minimum post length requirements and posting the post as a picture would not get the OP credit for the post. Attributing the post as a meme might otherwise disqualify the OP from receiving credit if his posts were looked at closely. The other post, posted a few hours earlier very clearly indicated the writing was not his.

Right, lenders have the right to lend on their own terms as they wish.

The point I was making is that the OPs loan request is not automatically a scam attempt on its face. If someone lends to him, the OP may not repay the loan. But it is not a foregone conclusion that he will run away with whatever money he receives.

here is another example from another lender
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3243635.msg51396967#msg51396967

There are plenty of examples of people in similar situations as the OP repaying loans similar to what the OP is asking for.

This is in no way an appropriate use of the trust system. The changes to the trust system results in your abuse not having the same impact as before, but this is still abuse.

Here is an example of someone receiving a loan with nearly zero trading history


The loan was repaid. I wouldn’t personally have lent to either this person or the OP, but I am more conservative as to who I am willing to trust.

It would be insane to trust someone because they are “respected”.

Another example https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5132594.msg51454283#msg51454283

A loan request is not automatically a scam attempt. The scam attempts that are frequently seen here are those made by throwaway accounts.

It may or may not be a good idea to lend to the OP, that is up to potential lenders. There are plenty of people who have received no collateral loans recently.

Also, in general, people asking for loans that warrant a negative rating are typically given the opportunity to first close their thread or offer collateral, or provide a reason why they are not attempting to scam.

100% inappropriate. The OP of the thread is not posting from a newbie account/throwaway account.

If someone decides that guy is a low risk they may decide to lend to him. I’ve seen others receive no collateral loans.

He may it may not be untrustworthy for other reasons but the loan request is not appropriate.

All this reflects poorly on FortuneJack. I am surprised that FJ wants to be associated with that kind of language.

What are the chances two “friends” have the same type of wallet hacked at nearly the same time


He does a pretty good job of keeping his addresses separated. Even if his wallet was hacked, the connection would still exist as it would show the person has the private keys on the same computer even if in different wallet files.

None of my accusations are frivolous.

You are a liar and are intentionally presenting mischaracterized and inaccurate information in the OP. 

I strongly disagree with your characterization of any of my accusations. 

In regards to the Hhampuz accusation, I believe the evidence is very solid. The existence of the loan from Darkstar_ should eliminate any reasonable doubt as to if the money was stolen or not. I believe he is being protected because of who he is associated with, not based on the merits. I believe any the "possible" explanations his friends have posted are excuses not to call him a scammer -- if Hhampuz wanted to go on the record to give some kind of explanation as to what happened, one of the "possible" explanations would perhaps be sufficient to create reasonable doubt, but he has not given any explanation. Another one of his campaigns shut down not long after the BestMixer campaign was shut down, and the owner of that site confirmed receipt of the excess money, so I don't think it is reasonable to say the alligation is so ludicrous to Hhampuz that it does not even deserve to be acknowledged. Obviously, if evidence was later found that contradicted Hhampuz's explanation, it would be clear he is a liar, and it would be more clear the money was in fact stolen from BestMixer.

If I see someone doing something they shouldn't be doing, or doing something unethical, I am not going to stay silent just because they are powerful.   

I recently declined to give bibop555 merit because his post history is nearly entirely made up of one liners when I checked yesterday.

Absent his spammy post history I probably would have given one of his posts merit:
Re: 51% attack on Bitcoin

He also submitted Random number that did generate some responses.

I will leave this here in case anyone else wants to review his submission and award him merit. I told him I would not give him any because of his post history.

Please stop posting in this thread.

I reported your posts here, and other merit sources will review your posts and decide if they want to give you merit.

I stand by the connection based on this:



I also strongly suspect it was sold along with one of its twitter accounts. It was perhaps sold to someone else who can speak similar languages, possibly someone the original owner knew via posting in a local section.

examplens also sent merit to loughlin
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3168503.msg32826153#msg32826153

In Jan 2017, examplens enrolled in a signature campaign with the address 15QLwhoYgaVt7nMUm5NCV1Z13VCqD12x9f and roomfirst (UID 904327) enrolled in the same campaign with the same address. roomfirst has negative trust from yahoo62278 for cheating a twitter campaign (I have not reviewed the reference). Also, I think there is a high probability that examplens is a sold account (see above PW changes) as of Dec 2017, so it is probably unfair to punish him for this.

The only merit loughlin received was from examplens

I believe this is it. Especially the wanting to control what is being advertised here.

In the past (and probably currently) there have been many scam sites that have advertised on adsense, and the damage would be very large on here if a scam site were to get ads placed on the forum. In the past, a small number of scam sites have slipped through the cracks and purchased advertising here, however theymos was able to quickly take them down and warn users about the scam. This would be much more difficult with adsense.

Weird, right? Not only that but you can say my name without having your post deleted
Trying is the key word in your statement.

Lauda is not becoming admin. People in this thread are displaying their double standards. They are willing to do any and everything to protect their allies.

Sarcasm. Those displaying outrage have double standards.
