It's 7 days. I could care less who he calls a scammer but the off topic nonsense and trolling is excessive, has been for a while.
And calling something a scam doesn't make one immune to moderation. And davout had nothing to do with it.

I think another user was banned for spamming their links to copied articles in there (or at least got a warning). It is annoying seeing the same rehashed articles.
Yes, if that's the case then post proof and we'll deal with it.

is it really smart poking the buffalo with a stick? i hope you are at least posting this behind TOR and if not that the tax man won't subpoena the forum to disclose your ip to make an example.
Even if they are able to identify him, how will they prove he owns how many Bitcoins? That's not how audits work, the OP is just hilariously naive. The burden is on you to produce your records and prove you paid your taxes and accounted for all your income, not them. They don't need to prove you own x bitcoins, just that there are discrepancies you can't account for. That's tax evasion, period. Being able to prove how much you owe is just a bonus. They might not be able to ding you for the full amount you actually owe if they can't find it, but that isn't going to be much consolation when you're sitting in your cell and Bubba decides you got a purty mouth. IRS isn't as dumb as some you seem to think, and I have no doubt they'll be looking to make examples of some folks. Won't be me, I'm straight and legal.

There could be sections dedicated to donations, but since it's not allowed i'm interested why not? I created some topics with my story inside and i kindly asked for donations, but i almost got banned of forum, which i found realy sad. Is there any particular reason, why this is not allowed? All i can think of is...i can't even write it without beeing baned, but you will figure it out i guess by yourself.
Enlighten me, I'd love to hear this. I promise you won't get banned for it. Also creating 4 different threads with the same copy/pasted content isn't kindly asking for donations, it's spam. Since you would not be considered any more as a non beggars forum, that would lower your reputation and you Donate button would be clicked less times. I did not get any warning/notice, that the thread was deleted, so i created another one, after second beeing deleted i created another one...and so on. When i got warning i stoped, simple. But don't expect me to stop if you don't write me whats not ok with my topics/posts. I expected something more interesting or conspiracy driven than that. What a letdown. Having your thread deleted IS a warning on any internet forum I've ever been to, and yes you are expected to not repost it. I'm surprised you didn't get banned honestly, you must have met one of the more patient mods.

I'm looking to hire someone to post on my behalf. This will accomplish 2 things. Keep my position as a top poster and increase the quality of my posts.
Eg. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone, as the saying goes. Thank you.
Not sure of you are being serious or not. I'm serious, I just can't afford much and don't know how to provide limited access. Well, you'd be paying people to post things similar to the following: "HODL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "ch00 ch00 M0TH3RFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!" "*picture of train blasting into space*" "+1" "AAAAAAAAAA BITCOIN IS DEAD THE PRICE WENT DOWN TO *insert current (triple digit) price*" Well a primary goal would be to increase the quality of my posts, not decrease them. What's the problem then?

Best thing for theymos to do would be to match stunnas bounty from donations, that's what they were for.

Bumping this again as I think this should be implemented before a year from now.
If someone wants to write a patch for it, I will seriously consider adding it. I believe that safely adding 2FA would be very time-consuming, so I'm not willing to do it myself or direct Slickage to do it.

Thanks, I've removed yours. If you're no longer participating in trolling the trust system, I have no problem with you.
Same, removed mine too. I leave this quote as mod advice about manipulating trust. Of course, it is better to remove the description of the real deal and leave negative trust feedback to person for expressing his opinions. Hypocrites! I'm pretty good at deciphering pseudo english, but this is just gibberish. I do detect some butthurt though.

Now someone in default trust (somehow) has joined in, getting ridiculous.
Zillions is in Canaryinthemine's list, so I'd send him a short pm outlining the situation. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18614 Try to leave out the hyperbole and judgements and just stick with the facts.

If you have a problem with John regarding his escrows, that doesn't really have anything to do with the forum. This thread is also a better fit in service discussion since it's about his escrows, not meta.
No, it have EVERYTHING TO DO WITH THIS FORUM. He was in an important position provided by the administration and used exclusively this forum to provide his escrow services. Thanks for quoting that, I ignored him a while back and that's good for a laugh. He's such a hypocrite. ...By the way, I am glad to know Mr. John is an administrator now. I think I would only accept him participating in this section. Mr. John is far more mature and business driven than Theymos. We need someone like Mr. John giving the orders around here.
He actually wanted John running this forum, but as soon as things go sideways he's so quick to blame others. He says whatever suits his agenda at the moment. And to think I respected the guy at one point. It's sad seeing people stoop to this level.

Despite the many large investors still hedging on Bitcoin taking over the world, and the spin they push through various media outlets and sites like Coindesk, the truth is that the general Bitcoin community is growing tired. Tired of falling prices. Tired of scandals like Mt. Gox. Tired of rigs they invested in not paying off like they hoped. Tired of maintaining those rigs. Summer on its way. AC bills will rise. Price now trading flat, or in my opinion barely holding on to current levels. Scam after scam with companies that promise mining equipment but instead use your money to develop and build the technology only to use it for months and months, earning the BTC for themselves and skyrocketing the difficulty. Crap coin after crap coin which honestly just makes the whole industry look like a joke. Potcoin. Dogecoin. It makes the technology look like a circus for morons yet more coins come out every day and are backed by exchanges that represent the industry. Could you imagine if the NASDAQ was filled with goofy company names like that?
Posts are slowing on the boards. Hashrate is spread so thin across so many coins. And most coins are so thinly traded, even with the bigger ones you'd have a damn hard time liquidating a large value of currency if you had it, the prices are held up by thing buys, and not enough buyers to really dump huge amounts.
I hope I'm wrong.
I've been waiting months for posts like this to start to appear. It's about time. It's when everyone starts shouting emotionally charged "new paradigm", "unstoppable", "all time highs", "guaranteed profits", that I suspect the market is about to crash. It's when people start complaining about "falling prices", "not paying off like they hoped", "trading flat", "barely holding on", "industry look like a joke", and "a circus for morons" that I realize we are finally approaching a bottom. People are actually looking once again at the actual merits of the technology. Bitcoin has long term potential. Those who are looking for a "get rich quick scheme" will be disappointed, but those who can understand the technology know that this protocol is a significant development in its infancy. I'm looking forward excitedly to the next 2 to 5 years. The changes in this market and the new developments that are on the way will result in a bitcoin that will be as different from what people see today as the World Wide Web is from what it was in early 1990's. A decade from now, today's bitcoin technology and interfaces will look primitive and unusable in comparison. Same, when you start seeing despair/capitulation from the get rich quick folks is when things usually start leveling out. It's happened before, it will happen again. Also, posts slowing down here means nothing, most people I know into people either don't know about it, or don't care. Spending time on a forum about bitcoin doesn't really fit into most people's lives.

Like how come all I see if a high member with a negative trust rating is "the trust rating is dumb" or "the trust rating is a scam"?
What else are they gonna say? "Yeah I'm a liar, scammer, and overall scumbag."

Why not just disable/delete the cause IE Inaba's accounts ?
What makes you think that would stop anything?
|
|
|
Whitelisting now reduces the time limits on posting/pm's (ie you must wait 360 seconds...), and prevents the user from being nuked (only newbies can be nuked).
|
|
|
Because it's been disabled. Theymos won't change it for you, he might remove the one you have.

Wow, BFL really doing a good job spamming my trust.
You look alright to me *cough cough* one of the first times I can say that the default trust system is working in a positive manner. 40 negative comments in a row!! What does the nuke button do? That looks interesting. Also if iluvpcs is now default, why wouldn't I be showing green? Nuke button is a failsafe that bans everyone and sets the server on fire. It's the only way to be sure. It's a spammer tool, ipban + deletes all posts.

Altcoin marketplace if they only take altcoins. If they take altcoins in additions to bitcoin then gambling.
