also to everyone investing in this thread


REMEMBER TO PAY YOUR TAXES, so many people get stuff on by the IRS because they don't realize is is taxable as capital gains.

if you don't want to go to jail for tax fraud, you need to pay tax every time you trade from fiat->crypto, so record those transactions.

if you think you can get away with it, good luck, because all the exchanges have to give customer info by law to the govt

I’ve been day trading on Robinhood, what exactly do I have to do so I don’t get beat by the IRS.

Edit: just realized google still exists. Still any advice is welcome

Sold my bitcoin at $17k, waiting for the drop to 10-12k then rebuying.

My ROI is $1800

What exchange is this? I'm trying to find one to go to because I got screwed over with Coinbase.

General Discussion / Re: Why does it seem like you have to be a veteran to host a successful server?

ya very few people can solo an entire gamemode/server, as even if they know how to do everything, it takes a lot of time to do it all solo. generally what happens if it does happen is that something gets skimped on, or offset to some other existing addon like slayer (handling the tdm script and setup for most tdms).

having friends really helps both motivation and work wise. they're able to offer input, insight, opinions, a different aesthethic, and the core playerbase to jumpstart your server when it just goes up

Yep! Every server I have ever hosted I have leaned heavily on my team (ESPECIALLY Fort Wars oh dear god the stress) to help me run my servers.

Also another factor is that people see a known name and immediately think "Oh hey this must be a good server if so and so is hosting it!"

ETH is at 500$

Don't worry, still kicking myself. Bought 40 ETH at $10 and sold when it was at $15.50. Thought I made a nice little profit at the time..oh if only I was a patient man.

Because they know what we want and you don't

This. I haven't played in a good while, but before I stopped I noticed most of the servers that were generally popular were by vets such as myself, Crown, Tezuni (ugh), etc.

Most of the newer players also don't have the experience to run a successful server, such as choosing trustworthy and competent administration, troubleshooting issues, and one of the big ones is just contacts, as in knowing people who specialize in certain things. I had friends who would do the majority of building, scripting, eventing, and administrating etc. that kept my servers running smoothly.

But on top of all that you gotta know what people want to play.

That's just my personal opinion on the topic, could be wrong but that's how I see it.

Kind of rambled on, but its been awhile since i've really posted on the forums.

"real trees"

yall replacing real trees with fake ones that dont burn or something?


feel slightly bad for doing it, but i keep visiting a rarely-plowed neighborhood with tight turns to drift at 30-35 mph. i have a friend who manages to drift his fwd celica gt by working the handbrake just right and it's hilarious. i forgot to ask but i think he swapped in a 2zz instead of a 1zz last year when the original engine blew around 200k miles

also west michigan is getting a huge snowstorm so i'm hoping work gets cancelled for me tomorrow lol

Same man, I do it with my car whenever it snows here. So much fun until some guy comes out and starts yelling at you.

You just pointed it out. ALTS. By now, you have had 24 keys revoked, which badspot just said, the edd spamming and another few acts of yours made you hated among the community, and already known as an starfish. We can't believe you anymore. True or not, no one here believes you. Maybe some of your friends, but everyone else doesn't.

Yeah except I didn't spam that server, it was Jasa using my key. I've already asked him about it and he claimed he did it to "spice it up" since the game was boring. I don't know what is so unbelievable about it considering I have not stooped to that level of stupid in a really long time (2014 maybe?). Think whatever you'd like, I posted here to tell what happened.

Say what you will about glass but his trench warfare was the stuff when it was still around 👌

Thanks dudes, I still host every so often whenever I am feeling nostalgic.

ftfy
also you might as well have not said this otherwise Badspot will just further investigate those alts and revoke them

Why would they get revoked? They were bought legitimately and I haven't done anything wrong.
