Lack of signature members is a issue for me and think that this discussion as become very lopsided, so I have pointed Yobit towards this thread to voice their concerns here. Tired of seeing the same people clapping each other on the back acting like their is no other opinions in a discussion. So we shall see if the signature is meek,timid and voiceless in due time.

Before I get full hog tied,I endorse the idea of Full member and up for signatures but a out right ban seems short sighted and with out stats can not be discussed with a rational mind.
Lets not forget that one of the favorite tactics in this forum is to state "You have a signature,therefore your opinion is paid for and is just spam"! Dismissive and a tad arrogant because we are all equal human beings and this need for a dynasty of 1% seems like a game where the forum will not prosper. I know a lot of you feel the opposite but wheres the proof?

I see alot of spammers making long wordy posts with little content, If your system is adopted, those users will rank quickly although they are spamming.



This seems to be the talking point as of late about signature users talking a lot but saying nothing. Can it be more that you do not agree with what is being stated and this is a way to cut the person off? Can you show me some examples of these type of posts because I think the people still posting crap are not changing the format. May be a handful of users that are doing this but as a whole very few are posting pages.

Let me just say that I saw your post in yobit's thread and I think It's cute thhat you think the spammers care. Lets take things into perspective, after reading your post in the yobit thread, I saw the user above you say something uncalled for (spam, one liner) so, out of curiosity, I checked his latest posts, here they are.



Who is he Huh

Great signature campaign!

*snip*

Quoting proves nothing if you don't verify the signed message.

Not sure if you're trying to pad your post count, or just replying with incomplete knowledge.

By quoting, I am verifying that this is the original unedited message, to prevent a hacker from editing the message which his own address and signature.   
Since I have quoted it, even if it is edited, anybody can look at the text within my quote and verify it themselves.

This is the exact same reason Gavin's testimony about Craig Wright's signature being true was not worth listening to. Signing is supposed to mean that you don't take anybody's word and verify it yourself. You should not take my word that the signature is right, and verify it yourself. By quoting, my job is not to ensure that the signature is correct, but just that the signature has not been changed since it was posted.

I'm not sure if you're just generally unintelligent or if you don't know what you are talking about, If someone hacked the account, they could easily edit the thread and get it deleted, that is, if they know what they are doing.


Quoting is a wast of time, should have just went and verify the message and leave a link to the verified message, No-one will take your word if you don't post a link to the verified message. I verified the message myself but you don't see me asking people to take my word.



edit: Strange how you think I want to pad my post count when you are the one quoting messages with a paid signature

Also, I assume this may have been looked at before but maybe ranking in general could be based on the word count or character count of posts as opposed to the quantity of them?  Maybe too resource intensive?

I see alot of spammers making long wordy posts with little content, If your system is adopted, those users will rank quickly although they are spamming.

Also, the forum had to change it's activity update system because it was taking up too many resources and a few days ago theymos had to disable the view members page for the same reason. Your plan will need too many resources.

I just made the mistake of clicking on a google link which lead me to fanbitcoin.com, didn't check the link(until afterwards) and entered my ID and password there and was forwarded to a cloudflare page. Realized it straight away and for security reasons have changed my password.

Just to confirm.

Code:

I have now edited my hosts file, you guys should too because it looks exactly the same.
Code:

Don't think you need to make a thread everytime you change your password, Just have your private keys to a staked address if any questions come up.
I don't think fanbitcoin steals passwords though, just earns off ad revenue.

He probably just wants to stay on the safe site to ensure that no one can impersonated him in case there is a rogue user posing as him here.

Why would someone impersonate him based on his password change?

Also, when would someone get the chance to impersonate him? He changed his password right away.
