Would you by any chance be using any kind of script blocker, like the NoScript plugin for Firefox or ScriptSafe for Chrome?

Ah, that may be it. For me, the last nail in the coffin was the cosbycoin forum hack, so I'm not enabling JS in the forum even a minute in order to test that Smiley.

and untrusted feedback will be hidden by default. You can view it by clicking the link "Show ratings".

That doesn't happen here. I am shown trusted feedback, then untrusted feedback and then sent feedback. No "Show ratings" link. I looked for some setting that I might have changed and found "Show untrusted feedback by default" in Profile > Forum Profile Information, but I have it unchecked. Just for testing, I checked it and I got the same trust page, unchecked it and again no changes. Huh
Weird, it does for me. Would you by any chance be using any kind of script blocker, like the NoScript plugin for Firefox or ScriptSafe for Chrome?

No I dont escrow anymore.
Added a link to one question in the FAQ:

Q: 50/10 BTC for VIP/donator? Are you all crazy?
A: No, we aren't. Someone who is a donator or a VIP is usually an early adopter and having such a rank means you were either from the start or you contributed a lot in the Bitcoin community. Although, there is a possibility new cheaper ranks will be added.

Wouldnt it be better to quote that? Not that i expect theymos to delete the post. Its the last post on that page, thus if I click the link its not immediatly clear which post you are refering to. It shows half of Rassah's post as well as the on by cbeast. At least on my screen (1280*1024), its probably fine for lower resolutions and worse for higher resolutions.

I have a question regarding necro-posts. Exactly what duration are we talking about?
Threads that nobody has replied to in 3 months, half a year, a year?
What if a few users follow the first one and reply to it; do we:
a) Report all of those posts;
b) Report none ?
Necro posts are OK as long as they are substantial (don't break the other rules). For example, a non substantial necro would be "This service is good".

I think a FAQ about how trust works should be added.

OP from theymos regarding trust: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/marketplace-trust-211858
Will do, either today or tommorrow.

Personally, I've out of the portion you posted recently enforced (deleted post, banned for, moved a thread, sent a warning, etc.) rules 1,2,3,4,7,13 and 22. They might get ignored by users, but not the mods. Also, if you see them, report them to the moderators.

They're not ignored; they're mostly dealt with if they are reported or a mod sees them.

Added in rule 24 with a source and an example on account of the new thread started by theymos regarding that matter.

Suggest s/the post in/the post is in/ Smiley.
Fixed, I think. Post if you see more or if I left more typos in that rule Cheesy. And don't forget to update your translation.

While this pop ups, do you mind adding in post links to the specific sections, so its easier to give someone a direct link to a certain rule or FAQ point?

E.g.

Forum rules   

-list of rules-

back up



























































Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

back up



Since I cant post the edited OP in a code block (because it has /code in it), here is an edited version:

http://pastebin.com/xgqWqV6u

it will expire in 1 day
Done, added in a table of contents / overview. Didn't notice the code since I looked before the edit. Will work on the search features when I get the time.

The draft feature is very handy.
Worth mentioning the lollipop search.
I'll add in the draft in the FAQ tomorrow. I didn't quite understand what the second one meant  Tongue.
Completely forgot to add this question - just did though. Will add more questions about both the standard and the advanced search features.
