unfortunately at this time I only have a full member rank and I see that the altcoinstalks forum is not a full member rank available, so what is the solution to teleporting using my bitcointalk account which is still a full member?
Full member rank does exist now, see
here for full list of ranks etc.
I am confused, what it is stopping a complete newbie from just selecting a high ranked account in this forum and claim that they are the owners and immediately go up in the ranks in that forum without deserving it?
Are they implementing anything to stop people from abusing this practice? For example do you have to sign a message with an address known to have been used by the account in this forum to be able to tell you are the actual owner of the account you claim to have in bitcointalk? Because if they do not then this will backfire badly.
If you read the OP (that you quoted), you will see that you need control over the btt account in order to teleport it, by putting the link to your att account in your profile:
Update:
I found some issues and loopholes for this idea, please read:
- All teleported users should keep a link to their altcoinstalks profile, this can be in signature as a simple "My Alts" link, or anywhere else, maybe as their website, or anywhere else, maybe a post my altcoinstalks account (this will be tough to find though).
or eventually: put My Altt: your username somewhere in your profile: about me / ICQ / AIM /MSN etc ...
This is needed so that we can check at any moment that the user is the one teleported, and not allow same user to change username and teleport 100 times. / for now not a priority but try to abide by this.
I'm therefore not sure why you'd need to sign a message, that could backfire easily with signing more than once in order to teleport multiple times.
The idea that is procedure would be done without some form of verification is ludicrous to say the least.
