Been robbed

@CesBurst1782 i think i just fell off my chair!
my new burst address is in my signature.
the old one i still have access to mainly because it still has loads of people subscribed to send me funds every week but whoever drained my account still has its passphrase.
im speechless!

@Lexicon Your Welcome, Starting This Coming Monday I will be saving all my earnings from my 23TB miner I have and will be sending it to your address. I know, it's not much but it's still something.
"I Hope I Hit lots of blocks with my Miner starting Feb 20!!!" :-)
Just one thing I asked from you is not to lose hope on what happened to you, but to push forward and still being part of this great community we have like Burst!!!
kEEMP'eM BuR$tTING! eNJOY YOUR daY! :-)
Thanks,
CesBurst1782

@CesBurst1782 thanks man it means a lot.
i put in a lot of work into this community over the past 5 months and when this happened i felt it was all for nothing.
obviously i was wrong. i didn't account for the community. and thats helped me through some tough times (the few times someone came onto the forums to attack me for my pool code i released).
-
I'm sorry for you man! Don't give up!
-
Um, what is the surfbar you all spoke of? I'm not much of a PC guy these days
-
@Lexicon I have sent you my Burst earnings for the past few days. Sorry for your loss and I hope it helps.
-
Also, I keep getting small deposits of Burst in my wallet and Polo acct. what gives?
-
@Rorepme that's the other forums doing a type of "gurellia marketing" campaign (and generally just abusing the network txs limit but they'll run out of funds eventually)
-
I don't see how sending burst to anyone and providing transaction fees to miners is abusing the system, just my opinion.
-
@rds It's like paying your court fine of $10K in pennies - it abuses the system and ties up resources. He causing exchanges to be unable to payout, users unable to do reward assignments, users unable to conduct regular transactions - it's vandalism
-
@haitch I disagree !!
I know you have trouble with Adam, but receiving free burst and even giving 3 burst per transaction sent helps everyone, those that receive rain, the pools, and even find problems with the servers with the many transactions.
Paying court ? People are receiving FREE burst FFS!!
I don't see why people call this advertising, everyone know nation already , and you are not required to read the messages lol
-
@Zeus
Crow and co know that flooding the wallets hurts the blockchain and pools due to issues yet not resolved. And yet they abuse the issue they know about.

Millions sent!! Millions!!
Stressing the system uncovers weakness hopefully resulting in a more robust Burst network. I don't believe there is anything malicious about what the rain people are doing.
-
@rds Abusing the system allows their pool to win a lot more blocks than they would have under normal operating situations. They're abusing the system to benefit from the system
-
@haitch , I defer to your higher knowledge of the big picture here. Hopefully it will not break the system, only bend it.
-
Problem with all this is that people usually pay 1 Burst per transaction, now when the rain comes the network gives it the priority as the fees paid are usually 2, 5, 6, etc.. so someone doing a normal transaction, buying or selling asset, etc. paying only 1 Burst will have to wait quite a time until the network gets eased...
-
@vExact I would hate to be a new adopter of Burst and wondering why it takes so long to set my reward assignment right now
-
@crutsy right now I have been waiting for an eternity to receive a payment from poloniex, buy assets and also even to transfer from one account to another... and is not a problem of online wallets as I am using my local wallet. I don't know what's actually going on... But in the crypto world if you have to wait two hours to transfer or receive some coins I don't think we going too far.
-
As a free marketer, I would say if you want your transaction to go through, then you need to pay a higher fee. That's how Bitcoin works. You can add the extra fee amount from the rain you receive on a periodic basis. Higher fees incentivize miners, create a larger network, provide a more decentralized system.
-
hi guys,
whats going on in here? its quite off topic to be talking about the rains of free burst in the thread i got robbed of all my burst.
anyway thanks @Rorepme the surfbar was a utility where users could leave a browser window open that visited adds and generated burst however some of these adds installed backdoor's and rootkits that caused my theft
