So the UNIVERSE has fallen in place, just because you are the only dummy spamming now, is that it ?

Being banned doesn't mean you can't login. It can, but usually doesn't. Typically it just restricts you from posting and sending pm's.

You don't see the negative trust anymore because you changed your trust list, and it doesn't include those who left him negative feedback.

If he doesn't answer after a couple days, send it again, it probably got buried/lost. I'll sometimes leave a pm for later then forget about it when something else comes up, or it gets buried in a flood of reported pms. A mention it's the 2nd/3rd/4th time you've sent may help, but don't be a douche about it.
884  Other / Meta / Re: About selling accounts on: June 28, 2014, 08:48:36 PM
So if it's "legal" does that mean if someone buys a mod account they get to keep their 'mod'?

No, mod status would be removed if a mod sold an account.

Glad there's a disincentive there...What are the incentives for our mods not to sell?

Not sure what you mean, that's not really a disincentive. If a mod sells his account, he's effectively already removed himself as a mod.

Well it can show how much time you actually spend reading on the forums (compared to post count).

No one can see it though..but yes I guess this is an accurate opinion

Yes you can. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=147832;sa=statPanel

Theymos has said he doesn't care much about url shorteners, though he has blocked specific ones in the past, I think because they were ad based, don't really recall.

I apologize for being a bit off topic here, but there's forum software that recognizes suspicious looking links? I always figured it was the mods removing them.

The forum software is heavily modified.

Only newbies have URL shorteners and other suspicious links filtered out. (300+ banned patterns!) There's no problem with other people posting such links, though I recommend posting the whole link unless it's really long.

What is the forum policy on link shorteners as I see no mention of this anywhere?

They're fine.

The link ANXPRO forum managers are placing across the board are not mere URL shortner of anxpro.com. They are shortening a referral. If u take up the example I have given, it is broken down as follows...

Code:
http://bit.ly/UxeAkD

Code:
https://anxpro.com/?utm_source=forum_referral02&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=marketing]



Whoops missed that part of the link, I'm used to looking for the referral code at the end of the url. Replies to questions with referrals are usually okay, though it may still be classified as spam if the user is posting them excessively (if that's the case mention it in the reason for reporting). It's mainly creating threads for the purpose of spreading referral links we have a problem with.

Okay, banned, can't do anything about restoring it though.

Without an address to sign a message you're pretty much SOL on account recovery, sorry dude  Undecided


Can you please banned the account until my problem sorts out

Nah, would be too easy to abuse if we banned accounts just because someone made accountname1 and claimed it was hacked.
890  Other / Off-topic / Re: If you had a son and he became homeless... on: June 27, 2014, 06:22:14 PM
what kind of a parent would you be if you wouldn't let him crash there?

I'm really surprised so many people voting no, why??

Are you a parent? Being a responsible guardian doesn't mean spoiling your child and giving in to his every desire and want. That's enabling. Sooner or later you gotta push them out of the nest and let them learn to fly on their own, as long as you allow them to mooch off you they will, and you are not doing them any favors by allowing them.

Really depends though. I mean dank is a junkie thief who avoids responsibility any way he can, so no I wouldn't let him, for the reasons above. If he were actually trying, responsible, and just needed some time and a little help, then sure.

I didn't say it was okay, I said there's no way for us to tell if an account has been hacked, sold, traded, given away, shared, etc.

I didn't see his thread, but looking at the mirror site, your "friend" admitted they were hacked in his thread.

Just did (both). Better luck with his next accounts I guess. Also looking forward to another hang/stab/ban badbear thread.

I think people who post about their activity should have it frozen.

The amazing thing is that 4 other bulgarians started writing in this topic... altho I didn't put a link to it. They found the topic by themselves.


I was giving you the benefit of the doubt til now, but now I know you're trolling. Posted in the Bulgarian thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=56593.msg7485310#msg7485310

Warning: Trade with extreme caution!
this is part of the problem. i have over $20,000 in good trades without escrow but some people are still seeing a fucking warning under my name cause fucking el cabron left me BS feedback even though he is a known troll who is accused of scamming and is currently banned. why the fuck is he in the default trust list and how do i get on it?

this system is so sloppy.

He's not in default trust, hasn't been for a long time. Akka even said in that post he doesn't use default anyway.

Me/him having the freedom to choose our own trust list isn't broken. You being able to control others trust list would be broken.

Dank ran a ponzi to buy himself shit like drugs, that bike of his, his guitar, all of which he refuses to sell to repay squall even though he claims to be homeless and "walking west", but it's Vod you have a problem with? He profited greatly from that scam of his, and squall can get fucked because he "needs" that stuff.  

898  Other / Off-topic / Re: what does my trust rating look like on your end? on: June 26, 2014, 06:36:19 AM
i'm no dummy, but i'm still confused. this system seems overly / unnecessarily complicated   Undecided

how does a member make it so all other members don't have to fuck with settings to see all the trust?

It seems complicated because you're trying to make the trust list do something it wasn't designed to do. If you could game the system into showing people the trust you want them to see, it would massively benefit scammers. At it's basic level, the trust list is basically this.

When you go to trade with someone, you would check their feedback first right? Naturally you would give more weight to some people's opinions than others, those are the people you would add to your trust list, which is basically a list of people whose feedback you value more than others. That's what the trust system does, it takes the feedback scores from the people on your list, and makes it pretty numbers that are easy to quantify at a glance.

Trying to control what other people see is counter to that, which is why it's confusing you.
899  Economy / Lending / Re: Help publishing a book - The Tale of Dank on: June 26, 2014, 06:32:05 AM
Hey Dank, since you've reached enlightenment, how did you fail to realize that you're putting more "corporate slaves" to work in order to publish this book? You're supporting the very thing that you're preaching against. Use your divine powers to make the book grow out from the ground instead. It's more natural that way.

They are the ones who put their self in that position.  The book would do more good than the minute harm of people publishing it, they may even take something away from it.

By your logic, I shouldn't use gas, or eat food, or bottled water, or the internet, etc.

It's about minimizing our consumption and leaving a positive mark of creation over the amount of destruction we disperse.

You could minimize your impact much further. Sell your motorcycle, get a bicycle. Grow your own food, or become part of a self contained society that grows their own food and other products, has a water source on their landand trades for things they need, publish your book on your own, etc. That would mean not being completely worthless though so

Another scenario would be the people who have left you feedback to be added to a default trust members list, their feedback would then show up under the trusted, regardless of whether you are on the trust list or not.
