I'd like to introduce a concept of a new feature called Account Control. This feature will allow to do different things with ur accounts. For example, u will be able to set a lock on an account to prohibit any outgoing transactions until a special condition met (e.g. an incoming transaction from a predefined account). Another example is Pooled Forging, when an account leases its forging power to another account.
Please, post here what u would like to see in Account Control.

Closure On The EpicThomas Attack Of 31 Dec 2013
OK, time for EpicThomas restitution distribution.
EpicThomas has sent 47,960 NXT to my account 16092180239932658439 as a restitution payment for NXT lost in his hack attack of December 31.
From the previous charity distribution described at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4275210 this is the split applied:
Framewood: 35.16%
plasticAiredals: 6.56%
newcn: 6.39%
sparta_cuss: 51.89%
So I have transfered:
47960*0.3516 = 16863 to Framewood's 11516574435181434547
47960*0.0656 = 03146 sent to PlasticAiredale's 17139321135754562770
47960*0.0639 = 03065 sent to newcn's 13187911577562526278
47960*0.5189 = 24886 sent to Sparta-cuss's 14748981975238803545
These actions can be verified via the block explorer at http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=34 . Between charity and restitution payments, these four individuals have now recovered just shy of 30% of their losses.
There still remains doubt over whether the bandit accounts associated with this heist contain stolen NXT or darkNXT. Furthermore, the sentiment in the NXT general forum seems to be that EpicThomas paying a restitution of 47,960 NXT balances the scales of justice for his crime of distributing infected NXT clients on December 31, 2013.
Accordingly, I consider the matter of EpicThomas to be closed and I will take no further actions regarding him.

thank you so much rickyjames, I owe you a favour, I'll remember that
Unless we have a decentralized forum, having two boards is good.
But please, only use forums.nxtcrypto.org now
But please, only use forums.nxtcrypto.org now
think here is pretty much decentralized.
but what you see centralized about nxtcrypto.org?
Pin
The ones who are in charge could always close the board, change some rules, maybe change entries? Isn't this very centralized?
Where the guy who was going to create a decentralized poker game? With AM it becomes possible.
I don't know why there was no noise about that! Decentralized poker game is something that may skyrocket NXT. Poker players have been waiting for this for ages! There have always been accusations of rigged software(rigged random generator) and also with decetralization the rake(that's how fees are called in poker) would be much smaller! Have in mind that rake in cash games is about 8-10bb per 100 hands. Best players earn 1-2bb per 100 hands. So, if rake falls only with 20-30%, poker players would earn twice more (or lose less for some). Would be soooo gooood for nxt!
I know at least one guy is working on it. He made the coinflip game for NXT. It just takes times to make an appropriate game. I surely would welcome more people developing poker games. BTW, poker is the second most expensive alias to register so far. Someone is going to make sure that money well spent.
I didn't even metion that there are countries where poker is restricted, and other where you pay huge taxes!
p.s. And ye, Omaha's rake is insane, especially in French sites!
No no, I wasn't talking about Omaha rake. I was talking about winrate in Omaha. On ONE pretty big network. Been doing it for 2 years so I know it's possible. (now I don't anymore - no time, no desire). Granted low stakes - but was told even higher up you can earn a lot more than 1-2bb like in Holdem.

I think it is all about taking priority. I don't think anyone resisting a safeguard to avoid costly mistakes. It is just a matter of How and When.
Oh I hope so, I really do... But so far all I've seen are some nonsensical "arguments" about performance and stuff. And time is not our friend on this critical issue.

At least I think I've figured out the real reason why they resit checksums: it should have been a design decision, but somebody screwed up and now it looks too costly to fix, because everything is tied up on BigInt. Am I right? Well, consider the fact that the cost of fixing grows with every passing minute.
I don't know the details of the system, but here's an idea: at some point you are converting some random string into bigint to get the account number, right?
Convert it so as to get 56 bits instead of 64. Then append 4 bytes of CRC32 or 4 last bytes of MD5.
After that no changes are required, except when accepting the transaction. Then you take the address and verify the checksum.
If I am way off, figure out a way yourself, I am sure between 3 of you, you have more than enough brainpower to do so...
Sorry to sound harsh, but this is beyond ridiculous at this point.
By the way, anybody else seen these ads here?

You should play Omaha. 20-30bb per 100

guys can getAccountId return an account that is invalid and hence sending nxt to it will destroy them forever? Can this ever happen and can anyone give an example please? I am just finalising the automation of NXT here.
Yes. U may find a phrase that opens the genesis account. If u send money to such the account it will be destroyed.
