Users can pry their own locks. They cannot undo mod's lock. However, mods can override anybody's lock.

I didn't know if I was the one who accidentally locked it.

You were.

I'm sorry for the trouble theymos. I know it's hard to make a reputation around here. I know it will take a lot of hardwork. Let me know if I violated anything so far aside from seeming to be scammy.

I would listen to some of the advice the developers have oppined, and I would lock this thread, and continue the conversation on the original thread.

Thank you freemoney for the information.

I'm really sorry.
And yes I'm aware I seem scammy. I have explained what my plans for this project. And I don't want to lose my job over this.

fwiw it looks scammy but that's never been reason for a lock before. You are sure you didn't lock it by mistake?

Meta would probably be the place to post about the closure.

Wow I was able to unlock it. Lol. I didn't know if I was the one who accidentally locked it. I'm sorry for everything if i got mad. Let's see what happens from here.

Wait for Theymos or another global mod to come online, and PM them your question. They would probably be more than happy to explain any issues you may have.

Kindest Regards,
Andrew

I was planning to explain some things and the thread was locked. Why?

Probably because either

(1) it causes blockchain bloat like Satoshi Dice or

(2) it looks like a scam, like BS&T

But neither Satoshi Dice nor BS&T threads have been locked (except in BS&T's case by their owner) so I don't know.  Maybe you're special.

Then they should just stop bitcoin development or make transaction fees like 50% of the amount sent.
And they should close all "ask for a loan" threads!
 Huh

dooglus, did I violate anything with my posts? If I did, should I get any warning?

It's not fair! I will continue it anyway as long as I can while I figure out how to address this. And now no other reply from the "elders" of this forum.  Sad

I appeal to reopen my thread "Hunger Coins"

If I offer people 0.5% interest on a loan after 1 hour, the elders of this forum will shout I am a scam. That is an attractive offer but I can't sustain that for a long time.

If I offer people 0.5% interest on a loan after 1 month, the elders of this forum will not do anything about it. It's not that attractive anyway and no one will loan me.

Therefore somewhere in between 1hour and 1month, a 0.5% interest rate will both be sustainable and profitable for me and my lenders. Let me find that sweet spot. I started hunger coins beta because of that. I had a budget to find that. Why stop me? Did I violate anything?

The lottery part of hunger coins was to make it more attractive and appealing.
Do the math, it's not hard to make things sustainable around bitcoin.
