I doubt you did it from TOR because it’s basically impossible now..
50 captchas and then they will refuse to solve, do that like 10 times and then it might finally work.. Half hour..
Choose an already used username? Start over..
Finally tells you to log in? 50 captchas that refuse 10 times to log in..
Get evil fee? Select new TOR IP..
Repeat..

Last time I tried it I gave up after about an hour and a half trying to create an anonymous account..
I was able to both sign up and sign in from Tor (the account I created (that I had no intention of ever using as I have use for this). The captcha challenges were more numerous and challenging. They didn’t take more than a few minutes to complete though.

As mentioned, when the account showed as being never active, I had no way of knowing that I had to pay a fee to post.

Last time I tried it, quite some time ago, it was about impossible for me to create a usable account from tor..

Maybe their should be a sort of newbie jail forum for evil accounts or some way to state your case..
Instead of evil banned, maybe an evil probationary period or something..

I haven’t used any alt account in a very long time, and have basically just for asking stupid questions that I thought might be controversial..

True, you are probably right.I just though that one part of the accounts I mentioned might have been be in that "never" group before waking up, since I noticed that those spamming groups for some reason like to use old accounts that have been completely inactive. On top of that, it looks like they have unlimited supply of those.

I would imagine that spammers who need some throwaway accounts to make a few shitbumps probably wouldn't pay the evil fee - not worth it. But what could happen is that someone has a bot to probe different IPs until they find a "clean" one (without an evil fee), then register a bunch of "free" accounts on it and keep them until needed. Or sell them to spammers in bulk. If that's what's happening - there should be a reasonable limit of how many accounts can be registered from one IP.

For some reason it became relatively common issue in Croatia. I have a few friends who got that evil fee thing (and I heard about more cases ) even though they had nothing to do with bitcointalk before I finally talked them into joining. Naturally, when they saw this thing they didn't want to have anything with the forum. Sure, they could circumvent this thing by trying registering from someplace else, but simple registering on the forum shouldn't be such a hassle, especially now when there are many different platforms and people can choose.

Yeah this system is quite rude to new users. Perhaps there could be an approval process so that instead of the evil fee the new user is placed on probation until someone reviews their posts and confirms that it's not a spambot. I think hilariousandco had suggested some sort of a newbie review system. This could be outsourced to the community to avoid overloading moderators.

Registering accounts itself dirties the IP and you can only get away with creating something like 6-10 accounts from a completely clean IP (a hospital for example Wink ) before more accounts start getting charged the evil fees..
Even without doing anything “bad”, or even doing anything at all.. Creating accounts builds evil..
IME

Where did you get the data? Are they public?

I literally checked which profiles have "Never" as their last active date, like I mentioned in the OP. I don't know if that's entirely accurate but it seems unlikely that so many users would just register and never login for some other reason.
This will not predict if someone has to pay a fee. When you sign up for an account, you will get a message saying there was a "cookie error" and that if you just signed up, you need to login. At this point, there is no indication you need to pay a fee, and the profile last active date is "never". Once you login, there will be a message at the top of the page that you are unable to post with a link to the proxyban page that tells you how much you need to pay to get unproxybanned; once you login, your profile will no longer indicate your last active date is "never".

A profile indicating they have "never" been active means the person has never logged into their account, and does not know if they need to pay an evil fee or not.

I just confirmed the above procedure a minute ago and the above is correct.

I believe bitcoin will be over $100k within then next 2 years and that eventually bitcoin will be $1mm, $10mm, and ultimately in the big picture 1 bitcoin will be worth more than all of the $$ in existence..
Eventually, 1 bitcoin will be worth more than all the cny, gbp, euro, usd, and pesos etc. combined.. All of them..

Why?
Because every fiat currency eventually fails but I believe bitcoin will last absolutely forever until the dawn of time..

Within the next 500 years, I would not be surprised if the dating system is changed from the current system based on the birth of Christ, to the birth of bitcoin  Wink

I don’t see much for critics, issues, or drama here, and I doubt some friendly conversation is distracting DS too much..

Might be a touch of “virtue signaling” going on as far as posters needlessly posting complaints of other posters posting as if their were some problem creating a need to protect the OP..
It’s good bumps..

The DT members are from all over the world, from many different cultures, and speak many many different languages..

It does not matter where a user is located as long as they have access to the internet and their character and actions get them elected to be on DT.. Most DT voters obviously do not discriminate based on country of origin or language spoken other than it would be unlikely to get DT members elected who speak no English at all.. Some even barely speak English..

Self mod is probably a bad idea. Off topic posts can be reported to mods (like my doorbusting gif above) but discussing the campaign itself inside the thread should be ok. Where else would you suggest to do it? Having multiple threads for the same "service" is technically against the rules too.
Where's the need of putting pressure on mods for this? Posts in that threads are okay so long as it discuss about the campaign itself but most of the times, it's all about some drama than campaign itself although this time, it's yet to start in full race I think. If I'm correct, there was so much of it last time, or the previous one, and this drama should be out of that topic in my opinion. A topic in reputation is best place like this one.

It’s ok OP..
We can have 2 threads Wink

 The ChipMixer Mafia that runs DT already has enough votes with all their merits.. And now you want them to get to vote on who gets to join the CMMafia too?

Neh.. DS himself is the don Illuminati in control of DT (via the mafia) and I doubt he would wanna give up all that powa..

If you look at the bigger picture though, DS is just the talking head puppet on strings controlled by the Lizard “people” that coded ChipMixer in the first place.. I’m not sure if the Lizards would be happy about their own minions choosing their own minions.. May give up too much control..

Nibiru Elite>Lizard CM coders>DS>Mafia>DT>BTCT posters (Satoshi was an alien afterall)


That's great and let's hear what DS has to say about this idea.
“Please neatly file your suggestions and complaints in the bin marked “Recycling” in the corner”

Suggestion for theymos DarkStar_: A passing score of a litmus test in general forum and cryptocurrency knowledge must be achieved and submitted along with your application..
Also, I find that extensive questioning in applications, including such things as requiring 10 years of accurate and verifiable job history with references, many forms including consent to background check, etc.., are good way to weed out all but the most serious of potential candidates..
The longer the app, the less idiots will complete it.. (Attention span required)

Could also require employment offers to be accepted by corporate (drag it out) before starting the lengthy background check and physical fitness test process, prior to atleast a week long orientation period (aptitude to obtain required certifications)..
Must be a delay of 2-5 weeks before employment..
If you need to start the job fast, their may be reason to question your personal stability...

Candidates must also make it through an initial interview with a flighty HR chick while successfully dodging her flirtatious advances (resists the temptation of immediate gratification) before 2 subsequent interviews surviving much time with the regional hiring manager stiff in a suit..

If they make it through all that, then ya probably have keepers..

(Woot! Their’s my 1Kth merit)

Faster than the speed of light as compared to what arbitrary stationary reference point in space?

Trump beat Biden in the debate and handily beat the propaganda overblown China virus..

I thought y’all said he was so old and fat that he would surely die or become incredibly ill with lifelong lasting effects from the news famous cold?

Imo, their will be another debate.. Just a little drama first..

Biden drank a bit too much of his own coolaid and is scared of the coof..

Besides.. I usually make so few payable posts I would only take up like 1/10th of a slot anyway..
Pick me! Pick me! I even got a whole 6 merits in the last 2 months..
Such good poster, many wording...

Idk, I can’t believe the amount of huge Biden banners I’m seeing out in the countryside.. Not feeling super confident tbh..

Makes me think they must be sending them for free to whoever will put one up though.. I doubt all these people are buying them...

Btw $11,000x0.12 isn’t all that small to me.. It’s not ridiculous but definitely not insignificant..
Kinda curious to see how many bitcoin-days it destroys to move it..

the scheme
promote 'i can make you $200k. this secret is real and can work. just send $5 to find out this secret'

the secret
'try to get $5 from 40,000 people by saying you have a secret'

Exactly it..

“Method to make $20 a day easy”
“Sell this method”

I am open to revising my decision if I could be shown some actual evidence of dragons scamming anyone..
DeepOnion actually sounds attractive as an anonymity project and it looks like the devs never scammed by dumping whatever premine stake supposedly happened or whatever..
And.. I don’t trust Lauda and mosprognos judgment whatsoever..
Soooo...

Dragons is much better than your average shitposter and I don’t think we should be running users like him off the forum lightly..

It seems that I may have just scored a new job that will have me constantly flying places across the country, for quite long/unknown periods of stay.. I had my 3rd interview with them yesterday and the regional manager said he is going to write up my formal job offer for me to either accept or decline.. If the numbers in the formal offer are the same or similar to what we have discussed then I will be accepting the offer and going on a hell of an adventure for pretty damn good money Wink

So I am going to have to take my cold storage access with me incase the snowballs chance in hell I lose these bets, or if I get caught with my pants down and don’t have access to my coins for a little while, don’t freak out immediately because I WILL pay up on it..
