Title: For users with a red dot
Post by: Freemind on April 21, 2025, 06:27:23 PM
I don't even remember if I ever wrote a thread like this, but that doesn't matter now...

A few hours ago, some accounts received a red dot, which, as everyone should know, means the user has multiple accounts on the forum, which should be declared to avoid problems.

The problem arises when these accounts participate in one or more signature campaigns.

Typically, from what I've seen in the past, these accounts are abandoned, thus abandoning a part of our way of thinking, a part of our personality. Don't worry, this isn't a post where I'm going to get melancholic, quite the opposite...

I tend to be a patient guy, but everything has a limit and we're not children anymore to behave like idiots. That's why I'm not going to waste any more time on these things when I can be doing more interesting things for the forum.

Users with more than one account must declare them and use only one account to participate in a signature campaign, unless otherwise stated by the campaign manager.

Is this your iron fist finally coming out to play?  ;D

Either way, I hope your newly found elected status as President continues to empower you. Regarding the situations with multi-accounts, overall I trust you & admin to make the correct calls and tough decisions. I've seen enough of the work that goes into this and it looks pretty thorough, so you both have my full support here.

And accounts that received this red Dot for now and if in the future they could be listed in a thread that will serve as a warning for people not to abuse the rules and what happens when they do.

There's a saying "you give someone your little finger, and they take your whole hand" - and somehow it seems to me that some people on this forum are just taking advantage of someone's kindness and countless warnings by knowingly continuing to do what they shouldn't do.

Besides, as far as I know, that "red dot" can be redeemed by paying a very cheap fine, so if someone really cares about not having it on their profile, they can easily remove it.

We believe in second chance, but that doesn't mean we believe the same way in third, fourth and further chances. So some can try, but it is a bad idea anyway. Someone can remember anyway... maybe campaign managers can remember...

It's been a while since someone called me that on the forum, I can't remember who the last user was ;D. And yes, my iron fist is losing patience and you know what happens next.



And accounts that received this red Dot for now and if in the future they could be listed in a thread that will serve as a warning for people not to abuse the rules and what happens when they do.

Thanks so much for the idea. I'll make a note to do it this weekend.

I know that saying, and the truth is I'm losing patience with things that just waste our time.



Now, for the users who send me private messages asking what they can do... The solution is this:

Referring the thread from my question on this topic : https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=97966.msg1756887#msg1756887 , and Jokers (current Vice President) said to divert the question about the Red Dot to this topic.



I want to know how it works like how the President or Admin marks his members with a Red Dot?

Is it visible from the time online?
Is it visible from the posting style?
Is it visible from the IP Address used?
Is it visible from what other more specific characteristics?

The president has access to see things that are restricted to regular users here. So the president will use his power as best he can to make the forum better.

1. The IP you use (can be seen in the log every time you make a post here)

2. Wallet connected.

3. Other strong evidence that the president considers.

There are still some other aspects that I and only the president and vice president do not know.

For me, I can't find my own IP Address here after I made a post.

I want to ask you because you are an expert in detecting other members' wallets.

This is my wallet BTC bech32 address :   bc1q57s82cm77fydxw9a5gud2teun0negqnxhdsrkc

I use the wallet from Software wallet, is my wallet more secure than Connected?

3. Other strong evidence that the president considers.

I don't understand this point yet, can you provide detailed information for this statement?

AFAIK, yes both of them can see your IP address. They have the entire log.
Your IP address is right beside the "Report to moderators" button (only for logged in user, not guest).
Look carefully bud! You see that red marking? Your address should be there.

Note that a user can see only his own IP address. As for other users, it is hidden!

I don't think a detailed information is necessary. It's better if it were private, in order to avoid abuses.

Unfortunately I'm not an expert like you said, I just noticed some features that we can see in this forum.


That's right, that's the point of tracking the IP that is commonly used. If you are in another forum, the IP is hidden in a certain bar. But here it is unique because the IP is immediately visible when you actively post here. From here, people who have positions like Admin orang President will collect IP to see that are connected to each other not, maybe by pressing the IP that is visible to the user, the president and admin can see who the users are who use this IP.

You can try it yourself with one wifi network and use two small accounts and try to make a post, then the IP that is visible will be the same.



Then for the connected wallet, it's not just a bitcoin wallet, but there are several other types of wallets that have been used. Maybe you can see some cases that have been exposed and try to do research too, then you will understand what a connected wallet is like.


and third, the considerations of the elected president and admin who only know, of course no one knows including me.

People should be aware that this is sign of your good will to give them a chance to redeem themselves. These rules are pretty light in comparison to Bitcointalk.

But also you should make plan what to do with users who break the rules repeatedly? Should they be permanently banned or just having their signature banned in addition with red dot? Should other contributions count when considering permanent ban?

Staying on the forum with multiple accounts created to participate in different rewarded activities is not a thing anyone should expect they can do. But as for the one and only account, which is created not for spamming and shilling only, there can be a chance any time. A permanent ban is a decision for spammers and spam shills, other rule breakers get negative badges and have a chance to correct their behavior.

I also don't see my IP address, only the L mark, without what is visible to me in other members' posts (Logged link). Maybe it has to do with which browser we use, because it doesn't really make sense for the IP address to be shown if you're using Tor.

In that case I'm not sure of what to make of that! For me, my IP address keeps changing as I always used VPNs/proxy/TOR to access everything. And even if I forget to connect, the VPN's will auto start and connect itself! So I guess it could be one of the reasons. At this point only the admin can answer your question!

I am not using Tor, I am using Samsung browser to access the forum from my phone with a normal internet service provided by my Sim card network, I also can not see my ip address in the area it's said to be, what I see there is only an L mark with a logged link, I clicked the link to see whats there and got a screen informing me that my ip address is only visible to me and the admin of the forum, and not to anyone else, and so also am I not able to view other people's ip addresses too..

One thing I want to actually say is this, I don't think it's right if ip addresses are the only means through which the forum admin and the president judge who is multi accounting and who's not, there is always the possibility that a friend could come around and decide to use your hotspot to access his account on this forum, can this be said also that one is operating multiple account here?

IP address alone cannot be used to identify multiple accounts. I am sure the administrators look at other connections, such as wallet link, posting patterns  or habits etc!

The scenario you mentioned is possible, and now that you've brought it up, I have been cornered with the same question. Because I have been using VPN service to access the forum as far as I can remember, also pretty much everything. So theoretically speaking, what if my address matches with someone else using the same VPN provider? So yeah, it alone cannot determine whether a user is using multi accounts.

VPN based IP addresses are not considered for exactly this reason. It's easy to check if IP address are proxy, hotspot, static, etc, and frequency of usage also comes into this. It's otherwise been stated for a long-time that if you regularly share a connection with another user then you need to declare this to admin, otherwise you risk being labeled a multi-account.

The reality is most of the IP sharing is multi-accounts, mainly small farms, only a very few cases of users knowing each other IRL etc.

Does it also apply for VPN service that claim it's VPN is undetectable or keep adding new server/IP address for it's customer?

The reality is most of the IP sharing is multi-accounts, mainly small farms, only a very few cases of users knowing each other IRL etc.

And here i thought those people would bother use VPN or proxy, since you could get one for free these days (usually at expense of privacy).

I meant of those that are caught not using VPN. There could be many more hiding behind one as you'd expect tbh.

It's the same message I see when I click on a link in any message - but I don't see any IP address. I don't know how familiar you are with how it works on BTT, but there you can see all your IP addresses for the past 30 days - but there is also something called Limit IP retention which is in some ways a good thing when it comes to privacy, but can be a complicating factor if you lose your account and want to get it back.

Message clearly says a user can see his/hers own IP address but here we are, you and many other can't see their IP address. Lol, there should be some sorts of explanations...anyway, I don't think it's very important for us users! It would only be helpful to the admin and mods when analyzing a users case!

Yes I am familiar with the feature you are referring to. Although i never used it.

What are the chances of someone using the exact same VPN on this forum and having selected the exact same server and using the same IP as you?
Also, I would be far more intrigued by someone that has been using the same VPN based IP in its entire history on a forum or was website as this thing it close to impossible, I will give it a zero chance of not at least once when connecting your favorite server woundn't be 100% full and you would be switched to another one.

Sorry but with like 1 million VPN IPs out there and like what, 1 thousand signature participants here on the forum, two persons using the same - one all the time! - it would be too much of a coincidence.

You'd be surprised. A few years ago now there were plenty of users using the most popular brands, and the IP ranges were often overlapped. I don't imagine much has changed since then, whether it be genuine users or more alt farms, as is not easy to tell when many users use the same server location options already. Personally, I used to be in the same range as a handful of users most of the time...

FYI :

In addition, I use the wallet to receive rewards from the Admin for ALTT token prizes:

According to the statement you mentioned above, I have a question for you:
-If I don't have GAS to send the ALTT token (to be sold), then can I borrow GAS from you?
Or I borrow GAS from the Admin or President to send my ALTT token.

There is a slight difference between using the exact same IP and IPs that overlap randomly

Let's say we have 3 users and they use
Monday
User A: 2.7.232.198
User B:179.184.16.236
User C:198.53.253.236
Tuesday
User A: 179.184.16.236
User B:198.53.253.236
User C:83.174.54.56
Wednesday
User A: 198.53.253.236
User B:158.158.7.213
User C:97.169.204.15
well you get the idea, I would not think of this as highly suspicious, suspicious a bit yes, but not alarming.

Then you have the same users
Monday
User A: 2.7.232.198
User B:2.7.232.198
User C:2.7.232.198
Tuesday
User A: 179.184.16.236
User B:179.184.16.236
User C:179.184.16.236
and so on the entire week.
common, I would bet my house on those accounts being run by the same guy. ;)

I'm using a paid VPN and because some website I use is run by complete idiots so I need to actually use the same servers with close IP *.*.*.x when I log in, you can't imagine how hard is to find them available every time and under 90% usage and those are premium servers, not free.

I don't use VPN, even though I know the significance of privacy, I can't tolerate the loading pages, I expect things to be sleek and snappy, and those free VPN has pros and cons and it is not the tool for one who seeks privacy only to bypass if their ISP is restricting. admin have more access to the data and with the help of some investigation those multi accounts are exposed. I am still curious about the list... ;)

I don't know if this is just happening to me (I don't think so), but since I use Tor exclusively on this forum, I sometimes get a message saying that I can't post because someone did it from my IP address within 25 seconds, which really doesn't make sense considering that it's often my first post on the forum that day.

There have been some discussions about it in the past, but I don't know what the final conclusion is. I know that this error occurs from time to time, but it's not something you can't live with.

and so on the entire week.
common, I would bet my house on those accounts being run by the same guy. ;)
+1, An excellent analysis. I believe this is the strategy that the admin uses plus other unmentioned strategies.

For the second example, it is certain that when IP repeats in such a manner, it's definitely one guy using them.

But please don't bet your house  ;D
Some dudes in same apartment do contribute money to have a mega unlimited subscription. I have seen it several times. But an average bitcoiner who cares about privacy and security would avoid such shared IP since you don't know what the other guy is doing in his end.

That is a good idea, but where will the users declare their accounts? In this thread?

And how will you compel the users to declare their accounts, whether it's by using bans or some other punishment?

There's nothing new in this, one account per user is enough and all additional accounts should be declared (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=33059.0), it is known on this forum for ages.

Sometimes someone needs to create an additional account to represent some project for instance, that's okay. But creating several new accounts to participate in paid campaign is not what allowed on the forum.

What do you mean by the words below?
Code: [Select]
needs to create an additional account to represent some project for instance
I can't digest well for what you say.
Can you give an example of 1 main account and 2 or 3 or so on for the example you mentioned?

All is simple: if you don't understand it, you don't need it.

When someone professionally represents different projects, they understand very well what I mean.

Since the friendly vice president did not give a suitable example, maybe I will try to explain it like this:

Mr. Jack created a Bitcoin mixer project called BitMixer.
Mr. Jack wanted to promote it to various forums including altcoinstalks.
Mr. Jack created an altcoinstalks account with the username "JackBitMixer". But Mr. Jack also needed an altcoinstalks account to test the main post, promotion account, or account for collaboration with other projects etc.
Mr. Jack took the initiative to create a second account with the username "JackBitMixer2" and the third with the username "JackBitMixer3".

So, Mr. Jack has 3 altcoinstalks accounts, namely --> JackBitMixer, JackBitMixer2, JackBitMixer3.

Is that what is meant by professionally according to you?

"Mr. Jack" doesn't need more than one account.

I don't know if this is just happening to me (I don't think so), but since I use Tor exclusively on this forum, I sometimes get a message saying that I can't post because someone did it from my IP address within 25 seconds, which really doesn't make sense considering that it's often my first post on the forum that day.

There have been some discussions about it in the past, but I don't know what the final conclusion is. I know that this error occurs from time to time, but it's not something you can't live with.

I assure you it's not because you're using Tor. It's a forum issue, one that other users have already reported, and it also affects other users who use their own IP addresses.

I've been using Tor for quite some time and sometimes the same thing has happened to me as to you, but it's not a problem with Tor.

Users can declare their alt accounts from the link that Jokers has provided. It couldn't be easier.

It cannot be forced, since the system, like any system, is not perfect.

This is absolutely unnecessary. Can you clarify whether Mr. Jack is representing different companies or brands, or just one?

It seems (if I’m correct) that you are saying he represents only a mixer. In that case, having three accounts for one project is ridiculous, it doesn't matter whether you need a secondary account to test out other stuff, handle promotional or collaborations!

But if he were representing different companies, such as Apple and Orange, then there could be an exception, I guess! But this is very rare for to happen, personally I haven't seen a situation like this before!

Okay, Noted.
This will be my reference when I discuss in my local language in Indonesia because I often discuss about cryptocurrency and forums with Husna QA. (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?action=profile;u=19772)

Since you are also part of D.Team, I will reference your reply thread if anyone asks in my local version in Indonesia about Red Dot.
