So could anyone help me out and give any advice on my scenario?

You can buy accounts if you trust the user who is selling those accounts and if you have doubts, it's better to earn activity points on you own. There is no limit on posting any threads or making any comments. Read this:

And what is the some of the better if not best signature company to use?

Any signature campaign that has an escrow is trusted.

I see so many and I dont even know how to sign up, I dont know how to attach my BTC address to my account, etc.

You need to go to your profile: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/killswitch2771-821174 and you can select Forum settings where you can find an option to add your bitcoin address.

Op`s problems can be handled with a simple trusted escrow.

Find a reputable escrow of +16 or more to handle the release after terms and conditions are set.

Eg: The following purchase is after the account has been successfully be loan free etc.

With a signature message required for proof of ownership. Which can be done easily using blockchain.info or other similar sites that offer it.

There has been a recent case where a sold account was reclaimed by a user as he reset his password through email as the buyer never changed even the email also.
There have instances earlier as well where users have claimed that their accounts have been hacked and sold and in that
case, you completely lose your bitcoins and the account. Need to be more careful when going for buying accounts.

Preferably, OP can buy accounts using an escrow who can give you some kind of security.

To increase forum rank, we just need to comment or post meaningful threads without chasing activity points or spamming. Any thread can increase our activity.

Yes, it will take a while. But i think OP would better create his own account. No matter what happens it will be worth it. If you decide to buy one atleast you have a new account that later on you can use.

How does the account rank system work? I understand you need to be a full member in order to get a signature that will pay you for meaningful posts, and i will glady pay the 10 bucks or whatever it costs, but what if 6 months from now or whenever, the account gets "recovered" is there a way the original owner of the account can hack it back and steal it for themselves?

Also, is there a limit to a number of threads you can make a day?

For the first question: the owner can hack the account, but i don't think it is a good idea, for second: no there's not, but if you joined a signature campaign, there's a limited number of posts you'll earn from, like 20 a day

The account owner can't hack or cheat if the account is under escrow protection, he probably change the password in this middle time.

And 20 posts per day is a lot. As a Full Member it's more than $1.60 with Yobit Signature. If you buy an account for $10-$12 it's fast to take investiment back and start earning profit.

If you do 20 posts per day, you will surely be flagged as a Sig spammer and your account will get banned. Signature campaign managers are already under scrutiny to manage this problem and they themselves will kick you from their campaign. There are a lot of Sig haters on this forum at the moment, and we should participate in these signature campaigns in a responsible manner or all signature campaigns will be banned.

Join the forum to discuss Bitcoin not to make money. If you are allowed to participate in these signature campaigns, do it constructively and do not spam. Buying accounts and trying to spam to make up for your expense will just end in that account being banned.

Can anyone give how much the accounts usually costs according to rank? I am also interested in buying accounts since I'm done with the 'Newbie phase' in this forum. Thank you.

You can go to the auctions and digital goods sections of this forum to get higher rank accounts. You can post a WTB topic there.
Usually the Full member accounts start from 0.02 BTC . You should consider post quality and trust before buying one.

I only have like 0.0033 and I earn 0.0014 (both in btc) per day. Seems like I still have to work for like a month or more here in Yobit Signature campaign to buy a Full Member account. Thanks for your info.

why do you want to buy a full member just earned by your daily post it cost only a time ,

Buy an account is cheap considering the daily profit you can do with it later. Buying a Full Member account can be profitable and you don't waste much time waiting your activity up each two weeks. Just need to do a good transaction with caution because there is always people trying to sell hacked accounts, negatived accounts or just trying to scam buyers... Sad

Accounts which are sold are not usually negative accounts but they may get negative ratings if they are detected as sold ones or the owner tried to scam another user. It's best to use an escrow who can confirm that the accounts are not hacked/negative accounts/with incorrect details.

so i can buy an account here but i don't have enough btc if the price would be high. and i don't prefer buying online with accounts because there are some scammers out there

You need to buy BCT accounts only from trusted users who have an auction or those who are reputed sellers. If you buy from random users in the Digital Goods section, there is a possibility that they may hide the fact that their account has been banned earlier or may scam you later on by claiming their account back. If you don't have enough BTC now, you can keep posting here and increase your rank instead of buying an account (due to the risk).

@OP & others who prefer buying accounts: It's better to earn by participating in the Twitter/FB/Youtube/Avatar campaigns instead of buying accounts on the forum. Reaching the Full Member rank doesn't take a lot of time (probably 4 months and if you visit and post even weekly, you can reach this rank easily).

I'd advise against buying an account. If you're here a couple times per week you'll rank up soon enough and keeping with 1 account counts towards credibilty, as far as that's applicable here.

As a signature campaign I think Bitmixer is best one but I don't know if you can enroll allready. But they do pay good, the best?, for 50 posts a week.

I like it, never failed.

Don't worry. I don't think most people would actually purchase a negative rated account anyway. Most sold accounts are fresh accounts with no markings on them.

Well we used the term "newbie" here so i don't think most of the newbie would know about trust thing and how it works.

Quote from: Kakmakr on April 11, 2016, 03:52:10 AM

I do not recommend newbies to buy accounts to signup for signature campaigns. You have to start at the bottom and read through many threads to get the feel of the forum. A lot of people rush into these campaigns, thinking they are going to make bags of money and then they end up getting their accounts banned.

Well most of newbies follow that practice of buying full member and start earning but so far as a newbie is posting up to thread's point no one can ban you.I think people need to learn the difference between "earning from posts" and "posting to earn".However most of the signarure campaigns has character limit set up .But there are still some campaigns especially the bot ones who still doesn't have that rule and continues to pay up for their spammers shit-posts.

People who sign up for signature campaigns, have to adhere to more rules than normal users and your posts are scrutinized more often than non-members of these campaigns. If I can give you advice I would say, start at the bottom and work your way up through the ranks, until you can contribute constructively to the forum.

My recommendation here is to:

1. Make sure any accounts that are tied with it are in reach, or disabled.

2. Be prepared to watch out for possible negative trust if you've bought an account as people like to discourage it

3. Be on your best behavior. Don't give account purchasing a bad name.

People can't negative account just because he bought it from another forum member, they can discourage, but it's not against the rules. Sometimes this happen when the account was already negatived when bought, when the account buyer use it to make spam posts or try to scam another members.

Don't worry. I don't think most people would actually purchase a negative rated account anyway. Most sold accounts are fresh accounts with no markings on them.

I'd rather wait until become Full Member instead of buying it, the waiting essence is make you value your ID more compared to buying it Grin

Or you can save money for Sr. instead
Being Full Member is not long compared to be Sr.member
So buying Sr. member is more worth it Wink
