Is there somewhere on the home page where a nice little reminder about not asking for sources, not creating posts asking for sources,or something simpler.

When creating this, I noticed the red reminders for required fields. Perhaps a little remark, sourcing not allowed, near the title box?

Just a thought.

 
I like the intention of your idea, but in my experience, a lot of the people who jump in with "where can I get XYZ" would not read it if it was posted a line above where they are typing.

I wish we could enforce a one hour of reading before posting anything rule. I have learned never moderate a forum if you don't like to repeat yourself constantly.

How many times do we see "where is the contact information?". Even if someone just posted where to find it 2 posts above. I don't mind assisting a new member with sources if I see that they have made some efforts to understand what's going on.

I don't have anything against your idea @AngryBird but I don't think there's any way to stop the people who want instant gratification even if it was on a banner scrolling across the page, they are still going to ask.

 
I have no doubt you are likely correct, @2earls. I like the hour of reading thought, too. One thing for sure, I'm with you on helping out someone who is really trying, versus the instant gratification folks.

 
Spot on @AngryBird, you can spot the instants straight away, it's always disappointing to see, though sometimes they go on to be good members. I joined here and read for a good few days, tentatively ordered and then posted a review, though I wasn't afraid to ask a question if I couldn't find an answer. The search function is really underused too come to think about it. 

 
I think some have maybe found this forum after being members of that old snake pit Topix?.When that was on the go people often asked for (sources) on the open forums,which of course turned it into the scam and shill fest it was.Thank god for this forum as it really is a family who look out for one another.

Btw I was a member of (Crapix) before and the one good thing to come out of it was I learnt how to spot a scam at a hundred paces.I did have a couple of legit sources there but they were far and between and I never got scammed,unless you count bad copied meds once that turned your whole mouth blue (di@z) pure coloured chalk!

Peace

You're probably right, @blissopifree 2. Once upon a time, I, too, was a crapix with a T member. There is no doubt it was a good training ground for scam spotters. Some were so obvious it was unbelievable. I did get very lucky and discovered one legitimate person, a Canadian. Until then, I didn't know there was such a thing as vegan shoes. Learn something new every day.

 
I found atleast 3-5  "legit" sources and as you said @AngryBird it was great training in spotting scams,although some of the attempts were laughable!!.

I used to go on to have a laugh at some of the OBVIOUS scam and shill accounts,I couldn't believe some fell for them but most were just people talking to themselves with multiple accounts and saying what a great vendor thread it was!.Some were so lame it was Hysterical?.Mind you benzo Lee made a good few quid outa the site,I allways thought he'd get his but it never seemed to catch up with him?,the ultimate faceless scan I suppose..

Peace

Ps mods sorry for straying from the thread but I couldn't help but reminisce about "crapix!"?...

  9. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: whereas if I use fiat to buy something the money is green anyway. Monero does this really well. Anyway rant over, you can DM me if you'd like to talk more about cryptos.
  10. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: I don't really think that people understand the whole point of cryptos in the first place anymore. BTC just won't be adopted by governments because the transactions are too public and what's worse, money that is freshly minted is better than money that has been used. Like if my btc was used for something that was illegal does that mean the money is "poisoned"?
  11. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: @xenxra Yeah, Like I said I've never really been that fond of btc, it isn't used as a currency, just as a place for people to invest money in, even though the whole purpose of btc was to be a currency. If it doesn't fulfill that role, what does? Monero certainly does.
  12. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: What's good guys! Just got back home. Missing football today :( Fuck the probowl lol

  14. S @ sawganaut: I bet btc bottom is in
  15. D @ dragnetopher: No, I don’t think it. I know it. And it’s not just bitcoin, it’s all crypto. And like I said, they’re selling to acquire liquidity for when countries truly start utilizing what’s been set in place. The USD is under controlled demolition as we speak. This is all part of it.

  17. xenxra @ xenxra: tokenisation is not a plan its already been happening for months, ive been trading this whole move on silver through ethereum
  18. xenxra @ xenxra: you think whales are dumping bitcoin because of something everyone has known about for like 4 years? what does bitcoin liquidity have to do with trading tokenized assets? they don't have pooled liquidity.
  19. D @ dragnetopher: Whales are tanking BTC due to the fact that the future is coming now, literally. There’s a plan to tokenize every single asset possible. This is whales dumping so they can have liquidity for the Springtime.
  20. xenxra @ xenxra: @Gulp2788 this is a terrible spot to buy bitcoin haphazardly because it's going down another $5k -$7k if 80,000 doesn't hold. i told everyone to get the fuck out of bitcoin at $103k. it's better to buy late when the bottom is more certain than throw darts and act like the opposite outcome was unavoidable just because it went down "a lot" and everyone seems to be "freaking out". wait for it to get back over 85k
