As a user with a history of operating a probable ponzi/scam, I doubt anyone will risk chargeback from you.

There is nothing i can do about paypal trades, people will trade whether or not the account has positive trust

Actually, no. People will trust others a lot more if they have more trust from DT members, so they'll be willing to do more risker trades more readily. Don't think about the potential profit; just think about the money that can be scammed if a scammer buys it.

It's just a forum that mirrors the sections of Bitcointalk. So we have a number of people from Bitcointalk that registered on a forum that mimicks this one, so it probably won't last for long. Most of them probably registered just so they can take the username they use here.

A few also used usernames of trusted members here, for scamming purposes. Hopefully the forum won't last long.

Re: BitcoinTalk User Account Assessment+ Account Price Estimate

Just a tip, I feel that you should start by maybe decreasing the time to estimate how long I have to wait to get an estimate. As of right now, it's 21 minutes. Tongue
Actually someone submitted an account with more than 7K posts before you so it gave the time as 21 min. Anyways all the pending requests have been processed and you can view your account details at your link.

Oh, I see now. Yeah, looks like it's just 3 minutes now. Smiley

Anyways, great job with the calculator.

Well, not much but it's offered so thanks Smiley Blockchain only allowed a withdrawal of about 7000 satoshi.

The jackpot giveaway doesn't work...

Considering that most faucets pay out >1000 satoshis and that this giveaway is 17653 satoshis, I guess you could say that this is a large amount of some users who work faucets.

BIN price lowered to 0.08BTC if no bin in the next 2 hours I will keep it...

BWC

Why? There is a valid bid of 0.07BTC on your account and there isn't a reserve price on the OP, or in any of the posts (but you can't add one in now). If you're saying that you'll stop the sale if no one buys it at 0.08BTC then this whole thread was a waste of time to everyone who bid because it's pretty much a Digital Goods thread.

Looks like you have got a serious problem here with your whole site. Resolve this issue first before trying to sell another product

I doubt he will address any complaints; the website seems to be running on scams and they're ignoring any/all complaints against their website.

Board Lending
Re: Requesting 0.1 BTC Loan
by

on 21/09/2015, 21:12:45 UTC
I need purchase credits for my phone, need 0.1

Then how are you relying on repaying this loan? I can see you aren't participating in a signature campaign, which crosses that out; it would be nice to know where your income for repayment is coming from.
with my salary. I have a formal work

If you have a "formal work", then you shouldn't have to get a measly $23 loan; just work for a couple hours and you should be set. Easy.

I would recommend not to loan to this user as of right now.

Nice site! However, I'm not sure if this happened because it was in demo mode or not, but I tried placing a demo order as a guest (I wasn't going to spend $100 PayPal on a demo site anyways Roll Eyes ) but when I pressed "Pay Now", it just directed me to the PayPal.com/home page. Is that just because it's in demo mode, or did I find an error?

Anyways, great script. I hope someone uses it and creates an easier way to buy bitcoins than Virwox/LBC.

Re: NEVER PAY FOR UBER AGAIN! (car service)
by
Pips
on 20/09/2015, 21:56:56 UTC
if you never pay for uber again, who ultimately absorbs the loss/your gain ?  i hope it is not the poor driver who is trying to make a few bucks. 

I'd think it would be the company. If they were holding drivers liable for all losses, they wouldn't make it far. And Uber makes a lot off everything regardless, so they can sustain the hit. That said, this seems extremely shady and brings about ethical issues.

Perhaps the method is on cracking Uber accounts and then buying a ride via an unsuspecting Uber customer. If that was the case, then it's just the Uber client who is losing money unsuspectingly.

Re: Suggestion to improve post quality on Bitcointalk
by
Pips
on 20/09/2015, 21:54:02 UTC
I think that the BTCTalk community administrators need to establish rules for signature campaigns. Managers have to check the quality of each post and remove every one line spammer from the campaign list. Automated post counting scripts could no longer be used since a script or bot could not check the quality of posts. If a campaign manager does not remove spammers from their campaigns, the forum admins should ban the campaign manager and effectively end the campaign. I too am getting sick of the spammers and lazy managers only in it for the money and not discussion about earning/improving the bitcoin network.

You can always PM the manager of the sig campaign that has user missbehaving/spamming etc.. Just include post/s that you find unworthy as reference and i'm sure action will be made.
Also, there's that report to moderator thingy on the right of posts, if the post is in violation of forum rules. A lot of people lost their spamming account due to this.

Yeah, but there are the signature campaigns like YoBit that basically promote signature spammers; the majority of the posters enrolled in their signature campaign are very LQ posters, and since their payments are counted by a bot, you can't report them to a campaign manager.

I say that we should get rid of bot-counted signature campaigns altogether.

Maybe dox should be restricted to an "investigations" board which is only viewable to Jr members and above, or something like that.

People would just copy and paste info into boards viewable by everyone.   Undecided

If accounts did that, then it would be a pretty simple matter for mods to delete them, right? If they were pretty obviously posting the info so that the whole forum could see it.

I would support that entirely. Also, it would eliminate all of those newbie accounts that are created for the sole intention of writing one post.

There is actually an account that is called Bitcoin Forum, but its not been used since 2011. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=34167

Yeah, I saw that account and that's why I said it was probably fake.

Just a point of reference here 0.50btc is a lot of money for a simple website that can easily be done cheaper on fiverr.

Lol, not really. You get what you pay for; many professional website creators charge thousands of dollars for websites that don't have any special features/functions.

I think if you preview (not sure), add a trust, try to submit a post unsuccessfully, you have to wait again?

Previewing/editing posts don't make you wait another 360 seconds, and neither does submitting a post before the time limit. Adding trust and reporting posts do, though.
