Nah they are pretty stand up guys, they'll do the right thing.
Bitcoinica does need to step it up though, they've had big success but that just makes them a bigger target.

Well bitcoinica is down anyway, so they will take everyones bitcoins, sell them, and then rebuy at a lower price run for the hills.

I admin a couple of my own SMF forums, it's changeable by default and with modification packages you can change it per user/group: (mods are also exempt by default)

Indeed, Bitscalper is the one who took your money. Miningbuddy was just trying to clean up his mess. Looks more like Miningbuddy got suckered by bitscalper along with everybody else. Bitscalper himself said the funds were "stolen" a long time ago, after a month of inactivity. I'm stuck now because all the funds left were stolen
Naive yes, scammer no.

Maybe, it would explain why it seemed to stop after banning two of them in a row earlier after only making one or two posts. I'd like to think I pissed someone off.

Last time it happened they covered the loss, so they'll probably do that again. I can't imagine the PR nightmare they would face if they didn't.

Yeah I've tried the spread method before, had 80+ temps idle with a core2. Was terrible, really hard to avoid air bubbles that way. I went with the line after that and with a new cooler it brought it to 44-46 under full load.

Well here is a sample of the names from the ban list: aiujiugioewg aiuhshuewi fdsafjiodjgew HAIUUHGEWUI fhiuwhgiuewhg FDJSAJGOEW
And I'm guessing it's entirely automated cause it responded to bans regularly, not too fast not too slow. We have much more efficient ways to deal with it now, and it seems to have ceased so should be a lot better here on out.

Dang, good thing you were watching. Any idea how they got in?

He's confused or misinformed, they definitely do.

Even if thymos doesn't want to hand you a perma-banhammer, I would support a software change in the forum that allows global mods to temporarily ban a user (for an hour or so).
Something needs to be done, cause wasting a bunch of my time deleting spam posts and being annoyed isn't very productive. hmm... sadly it seems people are giving him money so it wont end. crazy I was just thinking the same thing, just proves to him it does work.

He's back, spamming the hell out of the german forum.
theymos should really lock the foreign language forums with a newbie jail also.
Back? He was never gone, you just happened to see one I hadn't gotten to yet.
