Extremely sorry for the late response. I have been away for a really long time and I am aware of it. I don't know if these users are still there on the forum or not but I can now repay back to the user. Just wanted to inquire is it possible I could still get the collateral by any chance. If not I can still repay the amount.

@Darkstar how much money do I owe you please let me know.

Hey guys I'm not scamming anyone. No one sent me a pm about this, I have been facing numerous issues in personal life, I had lost my job and because of that it's been a struggle for me for the past year. I have never scammed anyone and will never scam you either. No matter what I will repay this loan with full interest

Edit - I just went through above post and looks like the collateral has been released, I'm extremely sorry to both parties for dragging this but as I mentioned in pm the issue why it's coming to a huge loss if because of the market falling and I did make a mistake buying these assets at a way higer cost. Whatever amount I had got from the loan I had given away to the collateral. Again if I actually wanted to scam anyone I could have stopped sending more collateral and simply ran off. But I never did that, I understand that this isn't some bank loan but unfortunately due to the current circumstances it has made me impossible to take any further step. I had started selling stuffs on eBay and have made little bit of progress. Now again due to my circumstances it's impossible to provide an ETA to either of the parties but it's a promise that I will repay everything with interest once I'm back on track

Can I have an update of how much I should repay to you Hatcher. Sorry for the lack of communication been super busy. Can you tell me the remaining amount with the interest included

Hey hatcher sorry for the lack of communication. I'm right now trying to repay the whole principal amount back to you. I've asked darkstar to update me the collateral he currently holds for this loan and see if liquidating any of the coins is possible

Recommend him. Have bought more than 6 codes from this user till now and all worked without any issues to my account. If you have any 250$ coupon pm me and also if any discount could be given as I have literally bookmarked your selly page

Hey can you just chill idk whats the hurry. As i said in past regardless of how low the collateral is i will repay all the loans. I was going to send additiomal collateral but the market literally crashed today. If possible can you just wait for a week or so. I'm trying to collect funds and repay all pending loans before this month. I know that's not right but it's just a wrong timing. I promise to pay all loans regardless of collateral.
Could you please trust me on this one for once, I won't disappoint you.
Also darkstar won't be able to transfer as the collateral he has is lower than the loan amount i owe him.

Hey looks like end of every month i have to show up and jist extend the loan again and again. The basic reason behind this is because the market value is really low and if i sell all collateral i gave you i basically get a loss.
Here's what we can do if I'm in a state of repaying the loan i will come online and ask for repayment address and send it right away else i would like you to assume that it has been extended for another month with same interest rate.
Now as you told you don't wanna keep extending the loan for a while here's what we can do if the market is still low end of August it get's extended to 30th Sept. And even if market has a slow reaction then i think I'll just buy bitcoin and repay the loan, i can't guarantee this but asking your time till 30th Sept as if i tell you all to liquidate i lose 2 bitcoins right away. Last time i took a loan i made 1 btc profit but now as I'm hoping is to repay the loan without getting a loss. Will come online for the next 2 days if you have any question do post here or pm.
The above implies for darkstar as well I'm sorry for any inconvenience but i can't sell them at a loss and all this is just bad timing

I'm still alive i have not been assassinated, I was a bit busy  so couldn't keep up but not to worry I am sending darkstar 1 million bcn which is enough. As i messaged you I'm not able to repay you because of the market ups and down i just want the market to recover a bit. I have and will never default a loan that's my guarantee

See this is the biggest problem, most of the new members just joined this forum to make money and nothing else. And forgetting the fact merits are given if someone makes good posts what you did here is a community service. I report so many posts daily to mod but I never begged anyone to give me any merits for it. As long as people like you join this forum just to make money nothing's gonna change

And as I also said this isn't your fault as well theymos implemented a system without taking any measures to solve problems like these. This merit system is only made for legendary members, most merit sources merit their fellow here/legendary members for good quality posts they don't care for members like us.

There's no point in making this post; merit sources claimed themselves that they couldn't find any good posts to merit.

The best solution is to buy a legendary account and do this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2198758.msg23660639#msg23660639 (https://archive.is/dDnCk). Don't get me wrong but literally, till now so many people have abused this merit system, there were even merit sources involved but you can see around people readily exchange merits between their alts and when users like me report it mods don't care,DT members just become blind and theymos is literally in his world

You should be happy you got 50 merits for literally doing nothing (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3212390.0). Yes, you did merit me because you felt my post deserved it but do you think you deserved those 50 merits.
Most members(including) are here to make money if you go back to the old days and see the posts they just used to be one-liners this all so-called "quality post" is just a joke.

I'm sure after posting this I will get backfired, but at the end, even you would agree with me.

Edit:
Honestly, I can't deny the fact that why you don't get merit, imagine you were a merit source and saw a post like this

Replying to the above quote this is the worst idea ever if this get's implemented it will increase the number of merit abuses, you can already see around there are so many spam bots created daily and when this get's implemented these spam bots will start spamming likes as well and with the current moderation system where merit abusers don't get punished I don't think we are ready for such a feature

The attitude of mods you kidding, just think from the point of the editor. Let's say you wrote a huge ass article by spending several hours doing research and finally you see someone just copy pasting your hard work without actually giving any credit to you. I mean it may not matter in this situation and they are aware that there are assholes like you who copy their hard work. You completely deserve it as you are definitely not the first user to get banned for doing such a thing and asshole like you should reduce on this forum

I'm not sure about legendster and julerz12 but speaking of gionmerry he doesn't really deserve to be on this list. Don't want to be rude but I actually did a lit bit of research on few of the campaigns managed by him but targetted one campaign particularly.

Campaign link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3367664.msg35280159#msg35280159

Description: If you see the spreadsheet he has accepted many users who just spamming and regardless of their posts they still continue to receive stakes for the week.
Example :
User 1 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=587721;sa=showPosts
User 2 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=500899;sa=showPosts

Based on this he doesn't qualify to make it to the list as he does support spam from the above proof.
But again this isn't my thread the ultimate decision is on you

If you want I can do research on other two managers as well, just let me know if it's needed ,

Sorry for replying late I wasn't online for a while, I could post on LoyceV thread to get merit history but I need to know first Will any DT member tag them because as I said last time we had all the proofs but no one took any action. I don't want to spend my time on exposing merit abusers when no one wants to take any action against them

Obviously, you can't change it because you are banned now and there are set of rules on this forum so if you break one that's it you are banned
And if you are copy pasting without referring the source you will get permanent ban and appealing won't help

Damn I bought the 150$ aws code from selly, entered in my account and it worked perfectly

Thanks, mate

Unavailable people spam here also theymos it's better if you close this thread

Old, dude merit system came this year and 120 days is around 4 months, I can easily remember that all these merit activities took place in may
Check your post also

Edit: Well yeah I just deleted one of my posts and checked to look like they got away


I'm completely aware what archive is, I have also used it in the past but this is not the main point I had all the proof up for a week, i kept begging for someone to take some action but no one took, please don't change the topic you are not helping at all

Hack or friend wtf is wrong with all of you


Another wtf post, no wonder we see members posting that who the fuck should they spend their merits on

Ok before I start please don't backfire me I was away for a long time so this topic might already exist

So back to the topic, I found a couple of members, or you can see some 20+ alts who were also abusing the merit system to rank each other

Here's the post I made: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3168616.msg34841172#msg34841172

And when I checked back to see if any DT took any action I noticed all proofs were gone, what they basically did was gave some 20 merits to a post and finally the user who was merited deleted the posts , so if we check their accounts now they just look like normal full members account and now based on what we have we can't really call them merit abusers

Who is to blame in this situation?

Because this was a vast network I decided to made a separate post, but no DT member tagged them, nor any staff took action against them

What's the solution?

I have said this before we either need more DT members because currently many of them are busy managing campaigns or don't give a damn about the forum
If possible theymos should also allow reporting of merit abusers to staff
