Edit: I should mention that I've found a lot of bugs with this site. In fact, I've even found one now. (Can't PM TF about it!)
My reasons for being unbanned: (edit2)
- Yes, I was annoying, but I didn't cause any long-term harm.
- I've done the most things for CoinChat: creating bots, reporting bugs, etc.
- TradeFortress hasn't even bothered responding to anything I've said.
- I've never scammed anyone, DDoS'd CoinChat, or done anything of the sort.
This post is about CoinChat.
CoinChat is a chatroom with rewards for chatting, made by TradeFortress.
Join here: (this is the link to my custom client) http://whiskers75.github.io/whiskchat/index.htmlThe story of whiskers75, CoinChat, WhiskChat, WhiskDiceBot and all his altsOur story starts back in the old days when CoinChat was just starting.
I was trying to make it run without crashing, and ended up learning a lot.
In my experiments, I found I could spawn in mBTC, and reported this to TradeFortress, who fixed the bug.
TradeFortress had the idea of someone coding a bot, and I liked it.
So WhiskDiceBot (a clone of SatoshiDice) was born.
Note! The incredibly-popular bot, moobot, was NOT the first bot on the scene. Mine was!Later, I had the idea of making a fun little custom client, which was named WhiskChat.
The bot and client grew and grew.
Let's fast forward to why I was banned.
I was first demodded (I had become a moderator) for muting everyone on the chat for 30 seconds because it was too crowded.
Then, I was banned for discovering a vulnerability and using it a few times to prove that I had indeed found it.
After some thought, TradeFortress sent me a PM saying I could be unbanned if I did not do this again.
I agreed, and hopped on the chat with an alternative account.
Note that TradeFortress had not woken up yet, so did not unban me!The moderators banned me.
Again, and again. (I ban evaded A LOT)
When TradeFortress FINALLY woke up, he was mad about me "ban" evading. As such, I was not unbanned.
So, I then continued to ban evade a lot, and finally I gave up.
Weeks later, I started ban evading again.
TradeFortress decided to unban me (again) and my bot.
Later, because I was hated by the community, I was banned again.
Now? I'm still ban evading, and still going strong, especially since the release of CoinChat v2.
TradeFortress has grown tired of my constant pleading via PM to get unbanned, and so I decided to release this to the public so you can decide on what I have done.
(Edit) Why am I banned again?All my stuff is open source.
