Announcing BPIP - The Bitcointalk Public Information Project!

[Timelord2067]

My posts are magically disappearing...

On the 16th of October according to BPIP I had posted 4,651 times...

On the 06th of November according to BPIP I have posted 4,656 times and fallen ~150 places...

As you can see by the "deleted by moderator" at the bottom of the page, no further posts have been deleted, yet I've posted numerous times.  How are they disappearing and who or what is causing it?

Maybe some threads where you posted have been deleted? You don't get a PM about it, but your post count still drops. It happens frequently with me.

Maybe, but that is not the fault of BPIP.   We don't count your posts, we take the number on your forum profile. 

Did you request that web.archive archive your page?  I can't see it doing that to every profile...

I do recall reading somewhere that threads newbies frequent were being closed - perhaps some of those have also been targeted for deletion.  Nothing recent seems to have gone. (I'm archiving just about everything nowadays anyhow)

Most of the time yes, along with certain other UID's when I'm investigating alts such as this prolific scammer - something I wasn't doing back in the day.

I only noticed when I made a comment to LoyceV a few weeks ago that his merits and my post count were running neck and neck...



Just one quick follow-up question...

How early is your information concerning password changes or, email changes for UID's? - 2018? / 2015? / Start of the forum??

[tranthidung]

Could you take a look at it, @Vod? Is it a bug (I have never seen this)?

Looks like some development code got mixed into live data somehow...  thx!

[sheenshane]

Also this @Vod.



I checked all trusted member profiles and also including you, it seems all got zero counts on Trust Feedback Information.

Is this also a bug?

EDIT: Probably it is not yet fixed because it is the same, there's no number shown on how many trust count but there's a color "dark green".

@vod
I noticed some members are missing from BPIP website.
Showing as not in the database

More information about his Ban evasion mission

Just a possible bug report.

I have noticed that all people on DT2 have a DT2 Strenght of "-1" which I assume it's incorrect.

Sorry, we are getting pretty close to releasing a new extension and website.  Some old code is no longer working.  Please be patient for a bit longer...

Thanks for the update @Vod.

I thought the problem was my connection, phew! thanks, it's not. Could it take days for the new site to be operational again? Seems I will not be seeing if the user has been ban or not in the forum and other information I'll be getting there, the BPIP is a great tool to rely on with those. Anyways, I'll keep watching the thread until it goes back to normal again.

https://bpip.org is not opening.

Chrome

This server could not prove that it is bpip.org; its security certificate expired yesterday. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection. Your computer's clock is currently set to Saturday, November 16, 2019. Does that look right? If not, you should correct your system's clock and then refresh this page.

Firefox

Websites prove their identity via certificates, which are valid for a set time period. The certificate for bpip.org expired on 11/16/2019.
 
Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE

[examplens]

something is wrong there

[LoyceV]

BPIP being inaccessible broke my Trust List viewer's update, and I didn't have time to manually fix it earlier. I'm looking forward to the new version

OK.
I am patiently waiting and looking forward to see this new version.
Can we expect some super-cool new features and tweaks for bitcointalk 10th anniversary?

[alani123]

This might have been mentioned before (couldn't find anything in last 5 pages) but as of now activity in the ranking page isn't updated. While at the same time, profiles actually are.

Cheers and thanks for the awesome project.

Edit:
Took me some time to find this but the 14 day periods within which the forum checks activity are talked about in more detail here:

@Vod
Not sure if that's still up to date but it could help make updating that page in BPIP more efficient.

[Timelord2067]

Looks like whatever bug had pushed my page count down seems to have been fixed now:

[logfiles]

I don't know if this has been discussed before but in case it hasn't been talked about. I just wanted to let you know that there is some slight inaccuracy with the merit numbers so that it could be addressed in the next update

For example i have been having 399 received merits for over a week (now 400 since i received 1 just today) but the merit information says i just received only 383 Merits. Please note that i don't have any airdropped or art contest merit.

[hosseinimr93]

Does anyone know how merit ratio is calculated?
As it is said on the website, merit ratio is Merit sent/received ratio. I checked some profiles. That doesn't seem to be true.
For example, Theymos has sent 11850 merits and has received 6273 merits. So merit ratio should be 11850/6273= 1.89. But the merit ratio is 0.84

Interesting.   While merit records are not reliable right now, obviously there is an issue with the formula.   Thank you.
