Are you sure it's just bitcoin traffic that set off this alarm?
My understanding is that the client makes one quick IRC request when it starts up, and that's it. So unless you're starting up bitcoin thousands of times a day, it seems strange that you would trigger a bot-net alert, and stranger that no-one else with AT&T has reported the same problem.
Bitcoin stays connected to IRC. |

The concept of off/on topic in threads is really really difficult. The solution I've been most successful with (and I'm pre-Internet chatforum moderator old) is to have the original poster decide when the discussion that follows is on or off topic.
Else you end up in situations where the thread starter is fully ok with the discussion and a moderator starts deleting posts.
(In this case it should be somewhat easy for moderators to see if it's the thread starter that Reports to Moderator with "off topic" as reason)
This is not fair to the people responding to a topic, IMO. People who reply to topics should know that if they are on-topic and they follow the rules, they will not be censored. Also, it is very annoying for reply-writers when they write long, detailed responses and then the topics become off-topic and useless. Maintaining perfect on-topicness is difficult. In the future, discussions may be made threaded instead of flat, which will basically be like having a system that automatically creates new topics when people are posting off-topic things (in many cases). |

After my Newbie probation is over, May I move my topic from here to an appropriate forum or will that be looked down upon as double posting?
You can actually move your topic. The link will appear at the bottom of all of your topics once you are no longer a newbie. |

Then what happens when Something Awful starts taking Bitcoin for registrations?
I don't want to ban anything.

Yes, though I would like to have more local moderators of various sections. If you have a good post history and you'd like to moderate a single section, PM me.

The forum is big enough that we could sell ads directly, without having to pull third-part JavaScript. But I'd rather not have any ads at all, if possible.

This kind of thing is very simple to do with a central server, and it's been done several times before.

Run Bitcoin with the -debug switch, double-click the transaction, and post the tx dump.

I just quickly recognized it as a Bruce topic and moved it there with the rest. Feel free to move it to Marketplace.

I probably will add a cheaper "level" once there is automated transaction processing for this. I don't want to manually handle too many donations.
Maybe once Bitcoin includes a built-in message-signing feature, I'll just use that for transaction processing. Then everyone who has already donated to the publicly-listed address will get credit without me having to create a separate processing system. And the server won't have to run bitcoind.
(If you ever want credit for your public-address donations, don't donate to the public address using an EWallet.)

"Bitcoin discussion" is for stuff related to the Bitcoin ecosystem as a whole. This issue is too specific. The thread would also fit in the top-level "Marketplace" section, since it is about a Bitcoin service.

Can guest still post, or has that since been fixed?
He wasn't a guest -- he just appears that way now because I've deleted his account. |

Was it the gold tub?
Why did you take so much if you don't mind me asking.
They were green and black containers I got from Bulk Nutrition. (They don't sell them anymore, though.) I was taking more choline to hopefully prevent the drowsiness from the piracetam, though it didn't work. |

No offense Theymos but I think VIP is way to expensive. Please lower VIP to 10 BTC which is already close to $100 with fees. 50btc is ridiculous.
It's not supposed to be easy to get. What value would it have if even 1% of members have it? |

Can they get through the yubikey protection through phishing (i.e. even if I hypothetically foolishly enter my mtgox password)?
I would guess so, if you also enter the Yubikey code. (I am not very familiar with Yubikey's operation, though.) |

Get a few dozen people to request it. I only know of three forum users in Thailand.
