Re: Updated Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns

[CodyAlfaridzi]

Coinichiwa seems to have problems with payment currently. As I posted on their thread:

I have not received a payment for the last two days, which is understandable as the board was down, but the page in question still reports

Code:

shorena @ coinichiwa
Your account is temporarily disabled.

will this require any action on our site to continue?

There has been no answer in the 24 hours since then. Not sure if you want to add a mark for this or not. I will wait till monday and see what happens.

It has been fixed recently. Account is active and pending payout since 22 Jan already paid.

Great, last time I checked was ~4-5 hours ago.

Urgent news for participants of Satoshibet campaign.
It will be closed tomorrow.

**** IMPORTANT ****

I have received word from up the foodchain at SatoshiBet that the signature campaign is ending this coming Sunday. I will be
doing the post tally Sunday night (Florida, US time, don't forget!) and sending out payments as usual but that will be the end
of it.

For those of you who just joined, I apologize. I just got word of it this afternoon. Let's everybody make their minimum post
count this week so nobody gets left out of the final round of payments!

My thanks to everyone who participated and kept me on my toes. It's been an interesting ride

I agree that I do not like commercialising this community thread and someone is profiting from this. Being a staff makes this worse.

Please explain how. If it's because I get paid by Theymos, should I deny the payment for what I do? Would you do that? Updating this thread takes quite a while. The updates I just did took me 20 minutes and they are 4/5 small ones. I re-read the thread, skim for stuff that I missed, etc.

The success of this thread comes from the overview table and the original idea and design is not even OP's. It is mine. He cannot claim rights to something that is not his in the beginning. I suggested the table format and coded it (on page 3), thinking I am helping the community.

If the ads are helping bitcoin startups for free, it would be ok. Now, a staff member's thread is advertising accounts trading!

Yes, you gave me the basic idea for a table and a lot of people have contributed towards it, giving me good ideas, etc. I'm very grateful for that, because it has helped (and still helps) a lot of people. If you don't agree with what I do/did, I could redo the table design so that you aren't involved with the idea anymore. A whole new design, extra information, etc.

I do not endorse any ads, I just put up the ad from the person who won, if it's allowed inside this forum.
Here is a poll about the ad: Should I remove the ad. I will let it run till tomorrow and decide based on the votes.

i voted "remove".  While I'm no where near as passionate as sed about this issue, I also stopped visiting the OP of this thread after ads went up.  I still check in occasionally on the last few pages to see if anything interesting is being discussed.  my o my, look at al the hot shit going down these days. 

[Gronthaing]

^ Don't see what the problem is. I visit the OP sometimes and don't even notice the ads. If jbrnt didn't mention what the current ad is, I wouldn't even know. So what if the person who created this thread is getting something out of it? Sure we all contribute to it. But only one person can edit the OP, and is held responsible for it if there are problems. It's a useful thread and it needs work to maintain, so I don't mind him getting something in return.

[MemoryShock]

To be honest, I didn't even notice the ad until I read this last page.  I had to go back to the OP specifically for it...and I have used the OP a few times (at one point I spent an hour looking at the various linked threads).

I don't see it as a big issue and have voted accordingly.

Ha, that says something about how much the ad might be worth to potential purchasers too.

When you say you don't see it as a big issue and have vote accordingly, that sounds like a vote for "i don't care".  But it seems a little ambiguos.  English is famous for a thing sometimes called "negative raising" where people say things like:

I don't think she should do that.

And they mean:

I think that she shouldn't do that.

So by this pattern, it's entirely clear whether you mean "I see it as not a big deal."  Or "I don't see it as a big deal".  If you catch my drift.

[Superhitech]

I voted "no."

Why? The ad is non intrusive, and mitchelł puts quite a lot of time into this. He should get some compensation, which is the ad money. It's not like he has ads spammed everywhere, one ad is OK.

+1

My vote is also in NOOO
Secondly i never saw any add here that looks scammy or any other ponzi site.
He give lots of time to this thread there must be a compensation i think for his time.

[iqbal14st]

[virtapayseller666]

Sad to say we are closing this campaign and these are the final payments. We are in the middle of restructuring and maybe in the future we will open this campaign again. Thanks to our campaigners who helped promote LuckyFlop.eu

campaign CLOSED LUCKYFLOP

He should keep having the add, it is his thread and he is doing a good work for the community.

Agreed. Actually all the campaigns should pay him since he's technically advertising them all. One little ad doesn't hurt.

[caga]

You might want to remove luckyflop. Looks like they are ending their campaign after today .

[Gronthaing]

@iqbal14st, monetizator4 already posted that on this same page.
@caga, virtapayseller666 already posted that on this same page.

Repeating stuff won't help it be updated faster. It just clutters the thread. And makes important information harder to see.

@tspacepilot don't read too much into it. MemoryShock was pretty clear in what he meant. It's not a problem for him either.

[Mitchell]

I have updated the OP and checked the poll. The results are clear and I will act accordingly.

[monetizator4]

777coins campaign have several free spots for Full, Senior and Hero members.
I would recommend this Full Member special spot for those who used to write 100 posts weekly. I took the same spot one month ago and still not going to change campaign.

I have 1 spot for FULL MEMBER special rate ( up to BTC 0.06 / week )

& 4 spot for Senior spot & hero special rate ( BTC 0.035 / week )

[DiamondCardz]

I have updated the OP and checked the poll. The results are clear and I will act accordingly.

Thanks, though there'll probably still be 1 or 2 people who try to argue this point.

[Ludi]

I wouldn't have even bothered even putting it up to a poll but glad to see the community responded rightfully. Ignore the jealousy and envy and keep doing what you're doing as this list is very helpful to the community and most don't care about the small advert and have no problem with it being there.

[jaberwock]

I have updated the OP and checked the poll. The results are clear and I will act accordingly.

there are people with 10's of accounts here.

So only 1 against could make the NO option win. I myself would never use a forum poll result to any practical decision.

But good the yes option won anyway
