I`d really like to see on poloniex a counter of open/solved tickets and such data, to see if their efforts are effective.

For it's a good way that they remove the troll box because it doesn't help at all. And mainly reason because in trollbox there's HYPE MODE that happening and for it's a nice way that they close the troll box because moderators can focus now in the support's fixing all the issues against the problem

The structures and staffing of exchanges has always been poor. And each one should be suspect. Its been 48 hrs and I dont have an answer on my "error" withdrawals

Screen grab of the last test withdrawals failing

http://imgur.com/a/pj88k

Now, last week I had noticed something that was shady. Staff had suggested that every withdrawal is manually processed after you confirm the withdrawal from your email. Isnt that an odd way to handle the sending of BTC? I mean since day one we had (and still have faucets) that make the payments automatically. I had been skeptical of Poloniex so I signed up just to test it out. They failed. I had to troll them for 4 days to get them to approve a withdrawal. Now, that started happening with Cryptsy when they didnt have the money to actually make the withdrawals. Just like when there are runs on banks. Delay the withdrawal any way possible. Now I get errors. For 7 years Ive never had a completed transaction not appear and be listed by an independent source as having an error.



I`ve never had any issue with poloniex in 1 year, excepting the lag.  Your "test" operations may be rejected just because they are barely over fee amount of 0.0001 and maybe poloniex is spammed with dust transactions, in and out,  so they must have installed a filter for dust. And I always withdraw to the same addresses, maybe thats a factor too. Anyway, I avoid sending exotic alts between exchanges, just BTC, ETH, LTC when possible.


Regarding the trollbox, I think it`s a bit concerning its demise and I trully understand the "industry growth" speach, but without doubt they`re making nice money with latest volumes so, they can afford to hire/outsource personnel.

With over 50K online users at peak time, the trollbox was overwhelmed and unusable, a change was due, perhaps splitting the trollbox on different channels and hire/enroll more moderators.

I liked the trollbox, despite all the spam, shills and abusers, it was a good way to take the "pulse of the street", with skeptcisism.

For now, I`ve joined Trollbox on telegram.

I do not feel lucky with the trollbox, when this lost to me it does not matter. For me trading is my own choice and is not dependent on the trollbox or anyone else. relax.

If you guys are having trollbox withdrawals like i was, you can try http://trollbox.chat you can call it a fork i guess  Grin

Hah I figured clones would spawn as soon as it was gone, but for me I say good ridance and anyway a fork is never as hood as the original Grin

You know whats sad??? Is that every exchange is shady...

Remember Cryptsy? What happened? First the withdrawals never completed. Then customer service was out of reach....

Cryptsy staff still tried to address problems in the chat. Its gone. My last two withdrawals from Poloniex never arrived. They show as "Completed: Error"

Want to talk to Poloniex staff? No problem. Just create a Freshdesk account and hope they reply.

Polo trollbox made me a millionaire at 22 in my home country. We will surely miss it. But i kinda prepared for its death long ago. With all the lag, it was inevitable.

Who wants to try my new alternative? Its still a baby but already kicking Wink Wink  - http://irentaway.com

Reading this gave me 1 LOL ..you know who you are Wink
And the rest of you gave me a headache.

Either you are all 10 years old or foreigners (or both)
Listening to you butcher the English language is insufferable.

I sawd'd teh exchangerz turnded offs teh Trollboxers i aemz saddorz Sad
Is teh newz fastest fer teh profitz coins  Cry

Yo news flash for those of you Investarded and riding a camel in India..
A chat box is not technical support.. file a ticket and keep the whining to a dull roar.
And yeah if you demand support on one you will get banned.
Duh.

Spamming ?
Yup.. they will shut it down.
Surprised ? You were doing it.. not someone else.
You did this guys ..so enjoy the result.

My advice is go to Freenode and use a channel there.
You can use web chat from your web browser or an IRC client like Mirc.
I do on rare occasions..
I have many names including Spoetnik, mprep, BigVern and many others registered  Grin

It is good they removed it. I usually kept that box closed because i couldn't read anything. It was just too fast.
It seems site is loading a bit faster now.

Somebody just open a "Polo trollbox" IRC channel and spam it on BTCtalk. Done.


I didn't even notice it was gone until I read this thread. I guess that's good thing.

Same here. I didn't notice it the first time until I saw this thread. Oh well, I used to watch trollbox andl loved to see people mentioning coins that needs to pump and then a few minutes ago, then coin has been pump very hard. Until a few days then the dumping starts and you don't know what happened. Truly this trollbox has been used multiple times by a lot of pump and dump groups. Sorry to see its gone now.

Posted a thread about this in marketplace. Hope Polo will put troll box back soon. Like others said, it's a good source for news and it also keeps people on the site

Well, I guess the website will be a bit less heavy to load now  Tongue

It won't be bad for newcomers to remove this as this thing was used to influence people sometimes badly.

What is another trollbox to follow?  Not for the troll part necessarily, but I get a lot of news from trollbox faster than other sources.

Yeah it was a great way to get quick answers from mods, but I think a livechat would have worked better for this because trollbox was becoming spammier by the day.
since there's a time polo got a problem or issue with their service its better to have a live chat so we can have a clear answer since trollbox already been removed, we still need communication aside from sending tickets if polo can manage to create a good support staff for faster resolution.

can any poloniex watchers tell me what effect it might have on the pumps there? was it a driver of them? will this slow everything down?

it's a sensible choice while they're so gummed up.

In the recent weeks the trollbox was very hard spammed and it was very hard to get any info or read something because many many people where writing at the same time.

I think it was the only place where we could gather any fast info and request something from they team to do, There were many mods that tried to handle the requests but I think they have seen that it was very very hard.

Now the number of tickets will be increased and I hope these mods that were in trollbox will answer the tickets by email.

Few weeks ago I asked in the trollbox, why things on polo are so laggy when things getting hot.
Got no answer.
Asked again - and got banned for lifetime.
So I did the same, what I did on my first minutes on Polo:
Pushed the little button on the upper right and hid the neverending stream of bullshit...


Well this hasn't happened to me ever, I was in a position that I needed the moderators help and if they didn't saw my message at the first time I didn't rush to write/spam immediately but I waited a bit.

Then I asked again by tagging their name @.. and then the texts gets green so they see it better and in this way I got response from them.

What is another trollbox to follow?  Not for the troll part necessarily, but I get a lot of news from trollbox faster than other sources.

Like that everyone can create trollbox with any domain but it is not the same as it was build-in poloniex.
