First, I did not use that dynamic IPs and did not record the address when I used it to test freebitco.in registration a few days ago
second, I am just like you, some time ago when your IP was blocked and TheQuin asked about your IP and you decided not to reveal it. I'm just not comfortable when revealing my location
if my analysis is correct then maybe this also happens to many Dynamic ISPs and will cause a decrease in traffic to freebitco.in
but TheQuin was very sure of the system he designed, so maybe I was wrong
-----------------
@TheQuin
I have considered ISP with 150 million customers as a clue
As I said we don't block ISPs so I didn't research how many customers they have. The IP databases are not 100% accurate and sometimes when the database is updated an address range can be reclassified as a VPN, proxy or whatever. I try and only block ranges that are heavily abused rather than rely just on the classification. I respect all of our customers' privacy but I'm sure you understand I can't look into it without the IP address affected.

C'mon people it's called gambling, the house ALWAYS wins at the end!....
That might be true overall but individual players do win as well. More lies by omission. Par for the course. Players DO NOT WIN. They can only be successful using the right tools ( https://dlive.tv/btctrading is a good example), but they certainly CAN NEVER "win" as in coming out on top due to some "contest" or miraculous single bet. In order to do that, one would have to come to this shithole, win enough to be ahead and then NEVER return. So you're saying thats the type of player you want to use as an example player of the site? One that no longer even exists? Ya ok whatever, thats gotta be GREAT for business lmfao. Get it straight. Just because someone gets a SINGLE "win" as you are referring to, you're ignoring all the LOSSES that they will take or have already taken up to that point. The "Wagering contest" is a PERFECT example of people who "win" but actually LOSE. Yet you call them "winners" which is imo utterly disgusting. That contest needs to be renamed to "The biggest losers contest". And trying to say "Some of them win" is an out right LIE because it cant be proven whether they won more than they've put in or not. Therefore the ONLY solution is to assume the MATH got them and they LOST. Therefore the statement "Some people win" is a complete lie because all it does is try to cover up the fact that 99.99999999999999% of all players LOSE. Who cares if there has been 1 person in the history of the site who came in, put 100K sats and won with 0.02 odds, and walked away never to be seen again. If that has even EVER happened (which I'll wager it has NOT). If it did happen, I'd also put money on the fact the player stayed and ended up losing it all, including the 100K sats they put in right along with it. Therefore, even that player is a loser, not a "winner" as you would label it. This means that the statement "The house always wins in the end" is 100% ACCURATE. There is no asterisk necessary with "some people do win" because thats just FALSE. You could replace it with "some people are successful" though because that doesnt insinuate that they always win. It also means they could have taken losses but despite those losses, they have been successful, for the time being. Anyone whos been in business knows that it takes losses in order to be successful. This is why when you ask a wealthy person who owns a business how they "won", they'd look at you like you were completely stupid and say "You mean successful?". Look at it this way. Your odds of "winning" at ANY casino that has a house edge of any kind are less than those of ALL the lotteries in the world. Combined and multiplied by 100000. Because your odds of winning are literally 0. In the end, its the house that always wins. Anyone who says otherwise is just lying to you.

Otherwise, you’ll hav pe to give your IP address to thequin to try to remove you from the database.

I am not sure about how much this will affect my referrals. because as a user we are not given facilities for that. I only know that my income is decreasing. I tried to see traffic to freebitco.in through a site like this: https://www.similarweb.com/website/freebitco.inwe can see that the traffic has fallen by more than 50% in 2 months. I dare not say that it was caused by a massive blocking carried out by TheQuin because it could also be caused by people's interest in bitcoin has declined. ---------------------- ..........I try and only block ranges that are heavily abused rather than rely just on the classification..............
@TheQuin so you block IP addresses at a certain range based on what I know, if the IP address that you block is the IP address of the Dynamic ISP, it will make thousands or millions (depending on the range you block) of innocent IP addresses victimized because the workings of Dynamic IP addresses are random like the process of creating bitcoin addresses when randomizing the SHA-256 number as a raw private key. That's if I don't misunderstand the word "range" that you mean.

I tried to see traffic to freebitco.in through a site like this: https://www.similarweb.com/website/freebitco.inwe can see that the traffic has fallen by more than 50% in 2 months. I dare not say that it was caused by a massive blocking carried out by TheQuin because it could also be caused by people's interest in bitcoin has declined. Free rolls have also declined by 50% but wagering volume has remained the same. so you block IP addresses at a certain range based on what I know, if the IP address that you block is the IP address of the Dynamic ISP, it will make thousands or millions (depending on the range you block) of innocent IP addresses victimized because the workings of Dynamic IP addresses are random like the process of creating bitcoin addresses when randomizing the SHA-256 number as a raw private key. That's if I don't misunderstand the word "range" that you mean.
It really depends on how the IP address database has it defined. ISPs usually have many thousands of ranges and they each vary in size. Generally speaking the average range I'm talking about when adding a block is a class C subnet of 254 usable addresses.

Yes, the support email only tells me an account number and obviously the email address associated with it.

Stopped reading there. This just goes to prove that these clowns have no idea what they are doing. Banning IPs is NOT the right way to go about combating bots. They only need to look at OTHER casinos to figure out how they are doing it. Simply remove what the bots are after........ problem solved. Ax the faucet, its completely useless anyway. Until then, they will perpetually be banning IPs and eventually they will have banned the entire internet. You CANT beat bots. Just like you cant beat the house. The more you try to beat the bots, the worse you're going to lose the battle in the end. The ONLY way to beat a bot is to remove whatever the bot is after. Thats the solution. There is no other solution. Banning isnt going to solve anything. Bots are not limited to geographical (nor or they bound by IP ranges) locations but it appears this clown doesnt understand that fact. Banning an ENTIRE range, Class C or otherwise is completely LUDICROUS because all thats going to accomplish is the bot moving to a new range. The bots are NOT going to run out of ranges. Duuuuuuuuuuuuh. You may not be able to beat the house, but the house cant beat the bots. The house isnt invincible. Eventually the bots will win in the end and Freebitcrap will have to drop it's faucet. Once it does so, there will no longer be a need to ban ips.

That's an impossible thing to be done since Faucet is one of the assets of this gambling site why it became too popular.They do really need get to rid of bots but doesn't mean they will remove faucet. You do love Bots,arent you?

I dare not say that it was caused by a massive blocking carried out by TheQuin because it could also be caused by people's interest in bitcoin has declined. Free rolls have also declined by 50% but wagering volume has remained the same. @TheQuin I'm surprised you look proud of the 50% decline in traffic and free rolls of games even though the wager volume remains the same I think free roll is the beginning for someone to recognize your site and various features in it and the wager volume is likely to come from people who already feel the pleasure of free rolls so they decide to make a deposit and no longer interested in free rolls as you said before that if they gamble continuously then they will lose by house edge so sooner or later I think they will stop because they run out of money or get bored because they are losing. I think you will always need new customers so that your business continues to grow and grow but it is precisely now that you close many roads to your site that might generate potential new customers in my opinion, a decrease in traffic and free rolls of more than 50% is an early indication of the decline in the performance of freebitco.in I think this is due to the many interesting features that are only for customers who make deposits and bet and this is compounded by massive blocking of IP addresses You try to limit the space for botnets, but this also limits the original user space on the same portion because basically botnets and the original user you will not be able to differentiate even though you sort them manually because the requirements that you request are only email and bitcoin addresses if you sort it manually and accidentally block or even delete an account that turns out to be a genuine user then this will erode the trust that people have given to your site for about 5 years but all this is just my opinion if you feel everything you do is right and feels everything that is happening is on the right track then you can just ignore it. I mean when I did it I got a completely different range, the first number was still the same but depending on the depth of the range, Garry could request one out of it. Ranges are used for locations (supposedly), in my country most towns with a population high enough have their own range of first letter,
@ Jack right jack, the first number is used by several cities in my country I could have told TheQuin about one of the ISP's IP addresses but that would only reveal my location rather than recover my income from referrals as my main goal of reporting this because I think my referrals are people who understand english maybe they come from various countries, so reporting 1 country won't help me I just think that if this happens in my country, then most likely this also happens in other countries I want TheQuin to improve the way to get rid of botnets if what I report makes sense because if it's like this, they are like farmers who eradicate pests using fire, so the plants will also burn.

isn't it ridiculous if freebitco.in blacklisted ISPs with very many customers.
It would be. That's why we don't do it. I'm surprised you look proud of the 50% decline in traffic and free rolls of games even though the wager volume remains the same
It is an indication that the selective action we have taken has been effectively targetted on abusive accounts and very few legitimate users have been affected. Compared to the support requests I had earlier this year when wetsuit tried a different method I have had hardly any requests from real users this time, just a few botters trying it on.

It would be. That's why we don't do it. this is an explanation of the ISP blocking I mean in my previous post : maybe you have made automatic blocking on some IPs that you suspect are used by botnets
but unfortunately some of these IPs are the Dynamic IPs owned by the largest operator in our country.
so that anyone who uses that IPs will be automatically blocked.
I think this will block the way for that ISP customers to your site
so this is the same as blocking the ISP, because sooner or later the users will use the IP address that is included in your blacklist because the IP they use will continue to change as the Dynamic IP works.
and for botnets who may have used the ISP only need to move to another ISP.
so I think the effect will be worse for genuine users than for botnets.
It is an indication that the selective action we have taken has been effectively targetted on abusive accounts and very few legitimate users have been affected. Compared to the support requests I had earlier this year when wetsuit tried a different method I have had hardly any requests from real users this time, just a few botters trying it on.
why don't you try to think in a user's perspective Did you know, when you delete a user's account then he won't be able to log in and because of that he can't complain through his account. not everyone out there understands how all this works and not all of the freebitco.in users know about this bitcointalk forum even myself, I know freebitco.in first than this forum

Yes. And I also know that anybody can email support@freebitco.innot everyone out there understands how all this works and not all of the freebitco.in users know about this bitcointalk forum even myself, I know freebitco.in first than this forum
You are missing the central point I made. Back in around March wetsuit put some anti-bot measures in place that resulted in this forum being deluged with complaints. I answered a lot of those and wetsuit asked me if I wanted to do forum support as a result of that. From talking to him and suggesting a few things he's implemented a new anti-bot system that has reduced free rolls by 50% and not resulted in any significant number of complaints. I also do the email support now and there very few there as well.

Welcome back. I'm sorry to have to inform you that since you have been gone you have been replaced. We now have another imbecilic troll that beats you hands down at posting utter crap. Nothing additional was being discussed. @Gary.Wilson_Jr. was incorrectly saying that we had blocked ISPs and genuine users with dynamic IPs were being affected. This is wrong in that we don't block ISPs and the IP ranges we do block are used for proxy and VPN services and are not the ranges that ISPs use for domestic customers. We are also not receiving complaints from real customers so I know that the blocking is correctly targetted. If anyone does have any additional suggestions I'm always willing to hear them and if we can implement something successful from them we always pay bounties.

no, I didn't miss anything it is a slightly different subject, therefore I separate it from the previous subject there I tried to say that maybe people who know freebitco.in from other people's referral links might not know about how to contact you like through this forum. even myself, I just found out this forum a few months later. i know bitcointalk but i don't know if freebitco.in starts from here. ....... @Gary.Wilson_Jr. was incorrectly saying that we had blocked ISPs............
well, about blocking ISPs, you can say I'm wrong and I apologize for that, but I have revised what I mean by that in my previous post as below: maybe you have made automatic blocking on some IPs that you suspect are used by botnets
but unfortunately some of these IPs are the Dynamic IPs owned by the largest operator in our country.
so that anyone who uses that IPs will be automatically blocked.
I think this will block the way for that ISP customers to your site
so this is the same as blocking the ISP, because sooner or later the users will use the IP address that is included in your blacklist because the IP they use will continue to change as the Dynamic IP works.
and for botnets who may have used the ISP only need to move to another ISP.
so I think the effect will be worse for genuine users than for botnets.
........and genuine users with dynamic IPs were being affected. This is wrong in that we don't block ISPs and the IP ranges we do block are used for proxy and VPN services and are not the ranges that ISPs use for domestic customers.......
for this I am very sure if you are wrong, because I have proven it a few days ago as I explained in my previous post. but it's just a report, I can't prove it further like sending the IP addresses I mean. the reason I explained in my previous post and I also apologize for that. if you feel annoyed with my report, just say it and I will stop continuing this topic. I just hope you use my report as a consideration

Yes, you know anybody can send an email there but not many "anybody" know about that email address because you don't display it on the site. Plenty of people do email it, I get hundreds every day. well, about blocking ISPs, you can say I'm wrong and I apologize for that, but I have revised what I mean by that in my previous post as below:
I'm trying to say that the bit in red is wrong. ISPs split up their networks and a domestic user with a dynamic address isn't going to be allocated an address from a pool being used by a datacentre that is hosting proxy servers. for this I am very sure if you are wrong, because I have proven it a few days ago as I explained in my previous post. but it's just a report, I can't prove it further like sending the IP addresses I mean. the reason I explained in my previous post and I also apologize for that.
As I explained at the start IP address databases are not 100% accurate. I'm also human and may have made an error in blocking a network I shouldn't have. What I do know is that from the number of support requests we are receiving this method has had far less (almost none) impact on genuine users than things that we have done previously. It also has significantly reduced abuse. if you feel annoyed with my report, just say it and I will stop continuing this topic. I just hope you use my report as a consideration
Not at all, I'm always willing to discuss this. It makes a change from some idiot spamming about his shitbot dice script.

Actually, I don't know or understand what the problem is. This is a faucet site and casino. I do remember my IP being restricted a long time ago, in fact my IP gets me in trouble quite a lot, but I deposited and took the problems away. Withdrawals honored no problem.
Same as at other casinos, my IP have been blocked or banned. But after contacting, I get it unblocked normally. Only ONE casino here insisted that I was trying to cheat them, but they still let me withdraw all my money and I never played there again. A bit of a hassle but can't help my IP, because it is a computer that doesn't belong to me.
What I'm saying here is. If your issue is real, admins here and most crypto casinos pay attention and allow it.

Plenty of people do email it, I get hundreds every day. why don't you display the support email address on the site, so that everyone who gets into trouble can complain that way you will get the actual number of complaints I'm trying to say that the bit in red is wrong. ISPs split up their networks and a domestic user with a dynamic address isn't going to be allocated an address from a pool being used by a datacentre that is hosting proxy servers.
yes, but it's not the opposite of the bit in red, so it doesn't make it wrong because you could block the range in a larger pool, which is a pool used by operators to serve domestic customers. As I explained at the start IP address databases are not 100% accurate. I'm also human and may have made an error in blocking a network I shouldn't have. What I do know is that from the number of support requests we are receiving this method has had far less (almost none) impact on genuine users than things that we have done previously. It also has significantly reduced abuse.
then applying my first point in this post is a good thing and preferably, display the support email on all pages including the login / sign up page because once you delete a user account, he will be directed to the login / sign up page Actually, I don't know or understand what the problem is.....................

@ slaman29 You will understand and can judge my issue real or not if you read my last 7 posts starting with this: Hi TheQuin .......................

The majority of people who are locked out of their account and can't work out what the support email just makes a new account to contact us about the old one. I really don't think it is necessary and you are still ignoring my point that the number of complaints this time is COMPARITIVELY minute to when other measures have been put in. Also the auto-blocking does not delete accounts. That is only done manually when I find a case of multi-accounting abuse that I'm 100% certain about. yes, but it's not the opposite of the bit in red, so it doesn't make it wrong because you could block the range in a larger pool, which is a pool used by operators to serve domestic customers.
The pools of addresses are not mixed usage. I'm blocking ranges allocated to datacentres, VPN, and proxy services that I actually find abuse on. Domestic customers cannot be allocated addresses from those pools. The only possibility for that to happen is an inaccuracy in the database and I only rectify that if a genuine customer user comes forward and tells me what the IP address is.
