sure, just because you say so 

I'd be interested to know if anyone else agrees with you on that

so you think quoting something is more important than explicitly confirming you agree to it? are you trolling? did you mean to post this 2 days ago on the 1st of April?

does anybody here believe an "implicit agreement" because of a local rule is an agreement to full extend? just curious

first you need to establish a local rule is an agreement to full extend. I don't think it is unless the other party explicitly confirms he agrees. implicit agreements or contracts aren't necessary valid, explicit ones are as long as they're not against the law (or forum rules I guess)

he has no reason to enforce private agreements. I'd bet most moderators wouldn't ban me even if I explicitly agreed to be banned if I post somewhere, unless I break some forum rules
a moderator's job is to enforce the forum's rules, not private agreements

banning someone just for breaking a local rule would be absurd. you can't demand a moderator to enforce that if he doesn't agree

when exactly is the email sent? what is defined as "tries to hack"? do you mean when the password is changed?
it's not really 2fa because if someone else has the password they can login with just that

I insist proper 2fa should be implemented. it seems simple https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2859085.0

someone said it could brake things (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2859085.msg29944712#msg29944712) but I don't think that's very likely. at least it should be tried in a test version (I guess there's a private test version of this forum where things are tested before going live?)

that makes sense if that's the case. but has that been tested?
adding 2fa would be very important. it's definitely worth trying the plugin and checking if it really breaks something. there must be a dev/test installation of the forum I guess

yes I know. it's being discussed since 4 years ago here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=167.0
I don't think it will be ready this year or even the next one

my question remains, I don't see a reason why it's not worth spending $15 or $20 to implement 2fa on this current forum

why is it difficult to integrate? maybe it was but now I see there's a plugin for that:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2859085.0

is there any reason why $15 or $20 shouldn't be spent to add 2-factor authentication to this forum?

it makes sense only if "donator" is no longer seen really as "donator" but "old user" or "bitcoin pioneer"
it differentiate users who were here soon enough so that 10 btc were worth 1 month of hosting


that makes sense. and even that would be much more (in fiat) now that it was before as I'm sure the forum is bigger now and needs a much bigger server

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=toptopicsat

and other stats here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats

it doesn't have to be mandatory. but users who are worried about security would have that option

"issues like unable to login due to 2FA would become the new problem"
are you saying it's better to have hacked account and hackers to scam with those accounts rather than a few users who don't know how to use 2fa to complain?


I don't see why but maybe it was difficult to implement that in the past
and I understand it's not worth putting a lot of effort developing something if the new version of the forum is about to be ready

but $15 or $20 and a few clicks?! it's already done, ready to be easily installed
it's like if someone already completed that bounty but charged $20 instead of 2 btc
it is worth even if it lasts 1 month before the next forum version! and I doubt it will last less than several months or more than 1 year

filter how? show only titles starting with something? I don't think that's possible

hi

I know 2fa has been discussed before but I still don't know why it wasn't implemented

is there anything bad about just buying this ($20) and installing it?
https://www.smfpacks.com/2fa/
or something similar?

why is not installed? is it something bad?

the most recently created? regardless of the last post?

add ";sort=first_post;desc" at the end of the ULR. for example for meta
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=24.0;sort=first_post;desc

if you mean the last reply then that's the default sort and you don't need to do anything

because HODL! that's why

I've watched this video and found it very informative to understand how bitcoin really works, not just the typical comparisons between bitcoin and gold mining
but actually how the system works to send transactions and confirm them in blocks, including the required operations

Ever wonder how Bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies) actually work?

I hope this is useful

first, it's not you who must make the 10 valuable posts, you must find 10 posts worth of merit

and I'd guess newbies can't be sources

but he means showing the merit of every post after clicking 'Show the last posts of this person.' if I understand him correctly

Q. How many sMerits have been distributed to existing members?
