Re: YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A REFUND if you used Quickseller as an escrow
He has offered to refund anyone who used his bogus escrow service.
Can you provide the relevant post to back this up? From my limited perusal I was under the impression that QS offered to pay back all those who used his escrow service for trade with his known alts, effectively Panthers52.
Re: Quickseller backpedals, then continues trust abuse without evidence
Why would someone who has so much bitcoin need this kind of a loan? Why would you think it would be a good idea to lend someone with tspacepilot's trading and trust history 1BTC worth of an altcoin?
I don't think he needed it. I loaned him the 1 BTC worth of CLAM as a test to see if he would pay it back, like you suggested. I have no reason to believe he isn't trustworthy. Sure he has some negative trust ratings but they mostly seem to be from you or suspected sockpuppets of yours. You seem to have some kind of a grudge against him.
What I do have however is what this certainly looks like. This looks like that this is an example of selling trust, either for the entire 1BTC amount (assuming there was no loan, only a "repayment"), or for whatever the interest amount was (assuming there actually was a loan). For a number of reasons that I am not going to call you out on (yet), I am leaning towards the former. The selling of trust is highly frowned upon within the community.
I loaned him 123 CLAMs and he repaid it. Other than that nothing of value changed hands. I wouldn't "sell trust" under any circumstance. Call me out on whatever you like. I have nothing to hide.
I would ask you, are you really willing to stake your reputation on this person?
I'm not staking my reputation on him. I left positive feedback after he repaid the 1 BTC worth of CLAM I loaned him.
I think it would be advisable to remove the positive rating you left on tspacepilot and to remove the exclusion next to my name. Both of which I think it is reasonable to conclude were sold.
I don't think that's a reasonable conclusion at all, since (a) it never happened and (b) there is absolutely no evidence that it did.
You can't imagine why tsp would take a 1 BTC loan when he has 5 BTC already, and yet you think it's somehow possible that I would risk my reputation selling trust to tsp for 1 BTC?
To poke my ugly nose in here, what you did was engage in a reputation building loan. Not only it is the wrong way to go, it is also grounds for receiving -ve rating. Clearly no one has the guts to do that to you, so be a dear and pull me in Level 2 so I can give you one. You're setting a bad precedent here and it will only encourage other to openly declare now 'Hey, the great Dooglus gave a rep building loan so we can engage in it now'.
If you truly believe Tspace to be trustworthy, why not give him a loan which is really risky, instead of some token amount? Give him 100 BTC and see if he returns. If you shy away from doing that it means you were only treading comfortable waters and angling for an excuse to provide trust which is almost as bad as selling trust.

SebastianJu getting seduced by trust farmers - and he's loving it!
feryjhie got sold in an auction today. No biggie, account changes hands like cards in a deck in the org named Bitcointalk. The seller, a new account rolled to just sell the account even got a default trust from SebastianJu who was escrow. Apparently the escrow somehow risked 0.255BTC and was so grateful to the Newbie for having the priviledge of being the escrow that he couldn't wait to give a default rating.
No biggie again, the Legendary Escrow Service is the middleman of choice for all sorts of traders angling to get that coveted feedback as a quick glance through the sent feedback reveals. What was concerning in this particular case was that the sold account itself received a rating. This seems to be a new policy for the popular escrow, who has seen a sudden rise in business coinciding with him doling out default feedback.
What do you do if you want to buy an account here? Make a new account, use SebastianJu to escrow the trade and ask him to provide the feedback to the new account and voila! you are the proud owner of an account which is going to turn green in 5 months.
But then, escrow fortunes rise and fall with the everchanging landscape of default trust. devthedev was the most popular at some point but was discarded like a stale bread when escrow.ms wielded his axe. bitpop had a few days in the sun but that was cut short quickly. Now master-P, who has worked so hard to buld up his rating is the only viable rival, but his insistence in being a miser in the sent feedback means he is left eating SebastianJu's dust.

Being a mod requires a sound knowledge of the rules, and obviously a lot of time to spend on the forum. QS fits both the criteria. For all those worried about QS going overboard, initially he would be a patroller and would hardly have any power.
Having said that, BadBear doesn't seem to be too matey with QS these days so I won't be holding my breath. Or weren't BB and QS supposed to be the same guy? It's confusing

Re: DA DICE Signature Campaign 2.O - Pay Per Post & Fixed Campaign Thread
On the other side, I have decided to halt any campaigns here until further notice, as from tomorrow, since we receive 80% of our business from sites other then btctalk.
Abandon ship!!
(Pretend) women and children first ...
I think the default network is pretty solid now.
You would think so but no, it isn't.
What is wrong with it? Disputes seem to get handled well and out in the open.
Remember the nice deals with Marco, which allowed him to remain green? This moron got ripped off after being fooled by the nice color.
Ask yourself - would you've got that amount in advance if you didn't have your Level 2 ability? Cross check with all those he threw out of the campaign.

with new green feedback system , even proven scammers are having green trust ratings under their username, and they can scam users again using their green trust ratings 
Not exactly, an user should not see only the 'trust score'
but also check the user's history and use always an escrow if he does not trust the other part.they think green is symbol of trust
Like this dope
Fooled by the nice color and now out of 0.7 BTC
now its a lot of work for default trust members to spot the scammers and help the community
This happened earlier. I was giving an example how color can fool a newbie. In that case it is even more so as there was very specific rating warning against that very particular trade. Goes to show that they rely mostly on colors and hardly on the text.

Hey.
I want to do the right thing and give this account back to it's owner. I bought this account few weeks ago for 0.7 BTC without knowing about previous owner or any of this. I found this thread few days ago, when I bought this acount from marcotheminer, I didn't know about this thread or that account which I will buy is compromised.
I already contacted previous owner and waiting from him reply.
I am not asking any BTC by returning this account, will take all loss on me ( sadly 0.7 BTC ).
Cheers.

Re: Quickseller Gave me a negative trust Without Considering any possibility
I find it so amusing everday when I look in meta at the people that Quickseller has outted. 9/10 of them are in some way scam affiliated. The other 1/10 is nubs that say Quickseller has misjudged them, only to later show that they themselves are in the wrong. Half of the people are jumping to conclusion because they no not of the forum rules or how they pertain to everyday situtations here on bitcointalk. The other half are legit scammers that try to debunk the system. I have not seen 1 person on here that's called out Quickseller and proved him to be wrong. Until that time comes, keep doing what you do Quickseller. Everytime they make some babbling post about how you destroyed their rep, just make another of how you destroyed it and got paid at the same time. Hurt their feelings a little more.
Q: What do you do when you can't suck up enough[1]?
A: Buy another account[2] and suck off even more.

Is it means that I have posted 21 posts..is all that posts counted are 75+ words???
Let me know how it works..
Thank you..
Yes, it counts only those posts which are longer than 75 letters including gaps between words... Probably.It shows 21 posts??

But. May be 75 is too much? It's actually question to all our Members, which probably more experienced.
We are still in discussion about this point. For now it works as rule - post should be more than 75 letters.
As confirmation that post is informative and constructive.
Post should be 75 or more characters in them. Its not hard to put some effort into writing a post. I agree that sometimes a few words is all that needs to be said, but for the most part, its simple to do this task. All you have to do is just think about the post and give it some constructive thoughts and feedback.

Macro does not control this account. Tidus1097 bought this account from Macro. Any questions or concerns can be made to Tidus1097.
This is just to confirm that I do own Nor9865. Any questions or concerns can be made to me directly. Also, I have told a few people on the forums that I own the account. So if you wanna get your troll on Meta is open 24/7.
Congratulations on your purchase

Re: Bitstarz.com March Signature Campaign – up to 0.1 BTC and more per month
Monbux seems to be a busy guy who had been here in last two days but didn't respond anything, he is definitely reliable but he is just too busy. It's almost 10th, the payment has been lated for a week so far.Maybe you can change the escrow for next month term.
Change both the campaign manager and the escrow if you ask me. This is bad for Bitstarz's reputation.
It's not Neotox's fault, it seems this campaign works like this:
1.Neotox count the user post and send the list to bitstars.net → 2.bitstars.net confirm the list and send the list to monbux → 3.monbux make the payment
Now we stuck in last step, Neotox did a good job everytime, it's not his fault, the issues always happen with second and third step, now again, monbux had been online today but he still didn't reply here, maybe he missed the PM and Neotox or bitstars.net should PM him again. Besides, I will remind him on his escrow thread later.
Also, since you're trustworthy now, you could send the funds by yourself instead of using a time-consuming escrow.
Yeah, it is not Neotox's fault here.
Maybe try a different method to avoid this?
monbux holds funds permanently till the campaign is closed. (that is how escrow should work according to link)
Neotox counts, sends to bitstarz, who makes the payment? That would be easier and less time consuming.
Just my opinion. Thanks
If bitstarz has the responsibility to make payments, there will be the risk that they won't pay.
That is when the escrow comes in. Read before you type.
Re: [BIT-X.com] Earn Bitcoins by Posting | Signature Campaign
Don't worry I won't be paid. Has your jealousy been fulfilled?
It's because a bunch of people were removed from default trust list, my trust hasn't changed.

Somewhat late but it makes up for the Bitmixer.io payment.
