I see elmit not sure about bin laden.   I know he is still mining I see his name everywhere.

You should head over to the NEW [ANN].  They are gonna lock this one.

[bobafett]

dont know why should i switch.

Some guys make a new thread for the coin. none of them are able to develop the coin ahead, because none of them know how to. so nothing is better than staying here....

I dont see any advantage in a new thread.....

[luxe]

Yes, i noticed there is a new self-moderated burst thread (thanks for the hint, missed that big upper case red letters) ...
Don't get me wrong, no offense, but i don't want to be 'moderated' and i don't think this thread will be locked.

Anyway ... lot of action in burst network ... over 10PB today https://bchain.info/BURST/graph/large, nice.

But i fear we have a Winner again, congratulations ...


This is just insane, someone missing a truckload of hard drives?!

I have 4.4PB so total network size is 8.8 PB actually.
No need to panic, in fact I welcome you guys to get more hashpower.
But, you will need to pump the price, there's no other way, miners need incentive.

I know, now you all expect a 51% attack as I promised, but for $40 extra a day, I couldn't care less. Maybe I'll do it for a day just as a proof of concept, but my point is: pump the price, so that more people can afford mining it, then I will no longer have 50%. If so, everybody involved in BURST will win.

[crowetic]

it isn't about the moderation, as I've already mentioned... it is about updated information. The moderation is there as something I don't want to use, but will if absolutely necessary. Not to mention, I said I would move the thread to our group account as soon as the account obtains the required amount of posts to become able to post pictures.

But it is up to you I suppose. I just don't see the point in talking here and splitting the community up...


I am not going to be randomly moderating anyone, what's the point?

[Elmit]

ist bin laden still on board?
anyone heard some of elmit?

Hmm, do you miss me?
I am working on other projects, which will integrate BURST payment in the near future. Xmas is not celebrated here, maybe CNY will make it possible.

[BurstIncomeAsset]

Nice to see this thread alive and active.

These are the current active faucets BTW:

sure. and i also want to see of the "old rabbits" still on board.

@crow. you still remember my try to make a new moderated thread? this has not worked in the past, also you are one of the guys that didnt want it at most, why shoud it work now. Also i asked in the past the mods to close this one. they have denied. and they will also not close this one now. As long as no other able programmer takes over, this is the BURST Thread. Nothing against you, but this is not you baby and your intention to make money with the coin is understandable but gives you no right to do this.


As i said, without a new dev that can code new versions of the core, there is no need for a new thread! And you are just a manager with to less programming skills for core dev.

[BurstBurst]

  agreed

I agree with crow and the rest of the BurstDevTeam that a new thread is a good idea, so we can get the OP updated with correct info if nothing else. Let's see where the traffic go over time, that will tell if it was the right choice. I think it works now because everyone doing burst development that i know of, they agree to the solution and trust crow to hand over control once the community account is good for posting pictures. So i'm off to the new thread...

I guess it is forever up to whomever to feel that way, and I won't attempt to force anyone to do anything, if they feel the need to stay here from some primal urge, who am I to say that they can't? Best I can do I guess is keep posting the link to the real BURST OP and hope that the moderators care enough to lock this one. Then point out the new OP to all services that deal with BURST one by one until they've all made the switch. (But I don't think I'll push that too hard yet, as I'm sorta doing this as a limbo thing until we get the BurstDevTeam account to snuff.)

But yea, I appreciate the fact that most people here in the community trust me and I will never break that. Also, I just am at a loss to see why starting a new thread himself without getting anyone's permission is okay, but yet when I asked everyone, got approval, and am only doing it temporarily, boba seems to take issue... But it is what it is, as most things, so I'll let it be.

To anyone who thinks that old antiquated links and inability to modify an OP make for a crap OP, the new (interim)  OP is at the following location...

lol dude, get real man. I thought we were past the petty nonsense. What I pointed out that you did was fact, what you're doing is frankly stupid and petty. Also, promoting my own business? Really... That's interesting, because I thought what people complain about in the community a whole lot, is the LACK OF SERVICES THAT USE BURST... so... my implementation of not only a service that will TAKE IT AS PAYMENT, but also HAS THE WALLET INTEGRATED INTO IT, and many more things to come, (especially now that I've got a new partner that has 15 years C++ development experience...) is shameless self-promotion huh? Do you realize how ridiculous that is?

Can you just calm down and realize what is really going on please? I really don't have the time nor effort to get back into it with you... I did nothing aside from what the community approves, and have never done anything but support BURST and its livelihood, unlike you, who I'm still not so sure has refunded everyone on your (for lack of a better word...) "asset".

Name a single time that I've ever done anything that anyone would consider shameless self-promotion or anything that would be bad for BURST... aside from you I don't think anyone would think that.

Even when my pool cost me out of pocket to run (which it still does if you take all things into account, but barely finally...) I ran it. Even when BURST was getting slandered by everyone saying it was dead, I kept assets and pools running and did my best to get the word out that it was not dead... When you charged for guides, and released an asset that didn't do anything like what it said it would, you're the one accusing me of doing things for sole money making purposes... very interesting.

But anyway man, the truth speaks for itself here, and I highly doubt that anyone has issue with me that has any merit. I am nothing but what I say I am, and do nothing but what I say I will. (Yea, sometimes I get busy and certain things have deadlines that are moved back, but never an unreasonable amount of time.) So honestly, I would really much prefer someone such as myself, as to you for instance, as someone to take a temporary leadership-esque role in the coin by simply posting the new (temporary) OP so that we (the community) can have a place where newbies can get things beside dead links and thousands of pages of mumbo jumbo. (But who cares about that, right? Let us talk here because you have unfounded reasons for not liking me, yes? Makes sense...)

If you really feel like trying to slander me is best for... (anything? I really don't know what the point you had here was, but you're not getting far with it) Then by all means, stay here in your dead-link haven, and slander away, but don't be too surprised when people don't back what you say, and possibly even stand up for me. This is what happens when you build a good name for yourself, and are one of the few truly honest members of a crypto community.

I'm sorry that my services seem to annoy you, or what... is it just the fact that I have an LLC? I don't really understand what it is that bothers you so much aside from the fact that I point out your nonsense. (Which, I guess would probably be pretty annoying, but is also a good reason to avoid nonsense altogether whenever possible...)

Anyway man, don't expect this little bickering match you're trying to start to go anywhere, from this point on Ill just refer people back to this post if they have questions on my responses to your ridiculous attempts at slander.

I'm going to continue to do what I do, and provide opportunity for more people to take notice of BURST and its tech, and get the community's opinion on things before communicating my opinion and forming a logical action from both. Sorry if these kinds of things get to you, but that won't change my way of doing things.

BURST IS ONCE AGAIN BEING ACTIVELY DEVELOPED AT THE CORE, TIME ONCE AGAIN FOR THE AGE OF BURST!

You are reading the old inactive thread. The new one is found by following the link above. Cya all there.. New thread was made to enable us to modify the OP once again bc we lost the guy with credentials to access.

With all respect, but there is also some truth in it.
ANY other than crowtec and associates asset/service will be discredited from your "staff"
And that is what people don't like, that only Crowtec == BURST and only Crowtec is the "real" BURST, ...

We all are BURST members/users/miners/traders/... enthusiasts.

I see the new thread now just a way to emphasize this even more, by (possible) delete "competitors" services and assets from display.
Did I mention already, that my faucet is not there? Did not your staff already jump on me, pointing out that it is missing.

The new thread is said to make things easier to find, ... but the links are all outdated. Pools are mentioned they are not active anymore for a long time.

Frankly it looks to me, just as another way to focus on yourself ONLY.

Frankly it looks to me, just as another way to focus on yourself ONLY.

I'm not the one who tries to make things all about myself. I'm the one who has offered BURST assets and BURST related services since the very beginning, and I'm also the one who paid for a lot of the stuff out of pocket, and never asked for anything. I'm the one who asks the community their opinion on almost everything I do, including my new cloud idea...

This idea that I'm making a service that can be paid for in BURST, and utilizes BURST, then plan on making one that actually uses the blockchain (services that you yourself have said will increase the value, am I wrong?) for myself only, is pretty silly don't you think? the screaming rabble says "we demand services that accept burst and use the chain!" *crowetic presents a running service with tons of possible options* screaming rabble says "crowetic is trying to make money with his business! fuck him!" really? Come on now. Give me a break guys, get some services and by all means advertise them on the new thread, I've never nor will I ever delete a competitors post, but as I see it, I have ZERO competitors. I would LOVE to see that change. Because that means more people are making BURST services!

No, Elmit, I don't mean release some scam riddled excuse for a service, and say "see, crowetic won't let me advertise my armenian scam compound for BURST, he's a nazi!" because I don't think that is going to work. But yes, even if YOU, with your past here and trust rating, were to release a service that people actually trusted enough to use and not worry, I would absolutely support the idea. The problem is, people like you and boba, trying to say my services are xxxx and yyyy, when in reality you're speaking on behalf of your own 'services' that you just can't understand why people wouldn't support...

My reputation is good because I earned it. I was a nobody who didn't know anything about anything crypto related when I got into crypto, but instead of attempting to scam people, and releasing services that didn't hold up to their ideas, and didn't do what they said they would, I did the opposite, even if until very very recently, it cost me completely out of pocket to run my services, and I was mining with half my farm on the behalf of my asset because ... I know it sounds crazy but... I DID BECAUSE I SAID I WOULD.  That, my dear sir, is the way to build yourself a reputation.

I realized that a few of my services wouldn't work, but instead of disappearing and paying less than I should have closer to the end, I gave notice, refunded every holder, and closed the service down. I also switched a service the same way, with notice, and fairly. It is hardly my fault if you guys don't understand that doing scam-ish stuff makes you seem scam-ish.

All you have to do to get a good reputation, is do what lends itself to such. Very funny you think that I'm somehow self proclaimed king or something, because I've never said anything close to that. Just because I've had the ambition to get out in front, I'm not anonymous, I back things with my NAME, and I provide good services and help people when they need it, hardly makes me anything other than someone you should be happy is on your coin's team, right? I have also never claimed to be anything I'm not, nor to develop anything I didn't. I am humble when it comes to my skill, but I know what I'm strong at. I'm good with communications, and I'm honest. That's a good set of skill for a leader. That, and I can always see both sides to an argument, so I'm good mediator, and good with helping people come to a conclusion that's mutually beneficial. That combined with the fact that I like being in a more up front managerial type role, ends up working out well for me in positions like that.

By no means does this mean that you couldn't have done the same thing. Don't get all pissy because you chose to do things that labelled you another way, because I chose the more difficult and honorable path. People listen to me because I listen to them. They respect me because I don't steal from them, and my services do what I say they will. When issues arise, I handle them gracefully, and that's just all there is to it there boss.
