Interesting thing for myself and maybe yourself , I’ve never seen you post here in the time ive been been in collectibles -only a few months admittedly- but that , mustbe a massively positive thing for all, especially in this sub section. If members in the collectibles can agree with common sense the aggregate rules of the sub section , then let it be !

Normally I prefer to send PMs, but in this instance since more than once person had doubts about forum rules it was more convenient to make a post to clear the confusion.

I'll also admit I'm not personally hugely interested in most of collectibles being sold or auctioned on bitcointalk, so it's not often that I browse that section.

I can appreciate the rules.  What is unfortunate is that if anyone ever went into altcoins marketplace thread its littered with garbage.  Nothing can actually be sold in there.  So there's the problem.  I do agree rules are rules but if anyone ever wanted to actually sell something in there it would 99% be unsuccessful because no one is selling any goods in there.  I think the last person to successfully sell something in there on a regular basis was smoothie and they were LTC coins he accepted btc for  Embarrassed

*shrugs*
At the end of the day, this is bitcointalk, not altcointalk. You can always create a topic in Meta if you believe the altcoin section(s) don't get enough moderation.

I honestly dont think I care enough about the altcoin section to take on that trip.  Was just a casual comment, explaining why maybe coblee didnt put it in the altcoin marketplace. You mods do a good job on here, it's tough wading through the forum waters without touching shit everywhere you go...keep on keeping on Smiley

coblee recently posted he also accepts BTC and I told him to include that info in the OP, next time feel free to report similar topics.

I always assumed that accepting an Altcoin is fine, as long as you are open for payment in Bitcoin as well.

Yes, that has always been the case (since altcoins were first used on bitcointalk).

Edit: case in point the 1st post in there is a thread named "what do people think about bounty now" and it has 5 pages of comments!!

Edit: the top thread on page one is "where do you trade your altcoin" has 10 pages and 6000 views....hows is that marketplace when the top 2 threads on page one makes zero sense to be in marketplace

If Bitcoin is not accepted as payment or it is not related to Bitcoin or crypto in any way it has no business being here. This has been the standard forever. People wonder why there are complaints of nepotism with jamokes like you on the default trust.

Look fuckboy, Charlie Lee the creator of litecoin is auctioning some collectibles signed by him in LTC, the only people moaning are cunts like you, Killyou and some other pajeet who aint got the funds or the balls to bid so shut the fuck up you penis touching ball licking cockroach and let the big boys be.

now to answer KY, IF/When I win I am 99.9999999% sure Charlie will accept payment in BTC its just pedant attention whoring idiots who are making a big deal out of this.

now fuck off back to your homeless shelter TECSHARE

Usually Altcoin related sales should be done in the Altcoin section's (like Marketplace). Regular sections are meant for just Bitcoin. However, this rule was never really strictly enforced from what I remember. I've removed people accepting only USD in Digital Goods, since well, this is Bitcointalk, not USDTalk. With collectible Altcoin items I feel like it's even more iffy, since you wouldn't want to break up the (already small) collectible section.

I always assumed that accepting an Altcoin is fine, as long as you are open for payment in Bitcoin as well.


My question is that, can auctions be hosted in the collectible section and NOT be in BTC. Because I have tried to host auctions and not take BTC and I was told I couldn't but it seems special people get special privileges

Special people do get special privileges KY. Don’t get minty about it

To be clear: Charlie Lee, Creator of Litecoin and subject of killyou's idiotic thread here is auctioning a few physical litecoins.  Charlie is accepting bids in LTC, payment in LTC or BTC. 

Killyou is very much a net negative to our community.   I have tried to support him in the past, as he needs it, but he continues to prove to be an inconsiderate asshole.




I am not the one mentioning charlie lee here, YOU and TMAN are. I am asking about the rules on the collectible section.

and to be clear, he is only accepting BTC after I nicely asked him if the rules changed or not.

I am here asking about the fucking rules of this community and I am getting shit on for it

so than you are saying I am correct in my OP?

Because it sounds like from reading your posts I am correct. I am not minty about it. I think that auctions in the collectibles should be able to be had in any currency


I am trying to get clarification on the rules of the forum

As a newbie to the collectibles, but experienced in other types Of sales, I would expect to pay/buy in btc. But if someone is selling a Monero, litecoin, ethereum collectible etc, I would immediately think they would want payment in that particular coin..........OR bitcoin. If I was unsure I would ask the seller what they’re preferred payment method was. No major problem, if I didn’t have any ether atm , I would quite happily ask if the seller it they would take btc . Obviously btc is the main player , but most sellers are conducive to SALES .

Since when can auctions in the collectibles not be done in btc? Because I can remember trying to host an auction there with bidding not being done in BTC and I was told by multiple people I couldn't do that. But now I look at auctions in the collectibles section and I see a ton that aren't in btc.

So can I get some clarification of when this rule changed?

Told you before Charlie can do what the fuck he wants, when you have enough money to join in the auction then you can comment, until then KYjelly please stop bitching for your sig.


This has nothing to do with Charlie, this has to do with auctions in the collectible section


We have rules, I thought the rules applied to everyone

Please point me to the rules.

If i remember correctly you wanted paypal or google wallet or some sort of reversible form of payment not Litecoin. 

Also, whoever is paying you for your sig/spam campaign is getting a terrible deal.

Collectibles (child board of Goods) - Trades of physical collectible items ("Including physical Bitcoin coins" as the board's subtext states). If you are selling these collectibles on another site (e.g. have an online store), it doesn't belong here.

I was never under the impression that Collectible threads had to be using Bitcoin as a payment method. I just assumed that the threads in the collectible sections had to be related to Bitcoin Collectibles, not necessarily BTC for collectibles or vice versa.

Although staff in the past have stated that any marketplace threads require that BTC be an accepted payment.
