What can be done about toads like londonfrog?
I’ve had mostly a very good experience on this site and any issues have been resolved directly with the seller.
Unfortunately this confidence let me make a purchase with LondonPondScum.
Is there not a holding area for new sellers like eBay where funds are held for 14 days or until delivery confirmed?

Don’t need to now you have disputed it , take it up with escrow now
Ok cheers. I’ll be patient and wait for their response. Not even a lot of money but really hate being robbed lol
Hi London frog took my money too. Promised me a refund if never arrived and then went on to call me a lier and that it must have arrived. How do I make a complaint to get my money back from escrow? I ordered on 22/06/2020
That’s transaxe there , just dm the order number , or dispute the order and hit up escrow
The hold is where it counts not from LB but transaxe/escrow. Just hit them up and you will be sorted.
He’s also taken my money too. Tells me it’s gone to the wrong address. Gutting. Promised a refund too. Lol. I’m such a mug
Yeah mate, we are newish sellers ourselves and we have only started getting our money from sales this past week. LittleBiggy holds in escrow for 16 days before releasing the BTC. This gives customers a chance to make a claim should something go wrong/sold shitty bud etc.

little biggy criticism thread
Please post feedback on little biggy itself not individual users.
I dont understand the role of content on little biggy, sometimes it's interesting or funny and sometimes its over the top advertorial or shit posting and the proportion itself is always changing. This makes it really unclear how I should use the site other than purchases. Seems a shame since there are some cool people here.
A better review system please
Maybe like..wait.. have you actually tried it yet?
Or are you just excited/trying not to upset the vendor etc

No criticism just a suggestion. If vendors could use Monero as another option of payment because it is safer and more anonymous than BTC for buyers and sellers.
Criticism is harsh - I'm new to the community and will help me no end. Observations so far (and some, if not all have been mentioned already). Some of these might be newbie issues as well but I'm pretty savvy on most sites..
Filter: eg. Types: Edibles, Flower, Hash etc. Delivery: (NDD offered / EU etc.) Price etc. like a proper retailer or marketplace.
Basket System: Seems mad I can only order once each time if I wanted 2 or 3 different strains at different sizes and prices...? As long as transation is the same vendor you should be able to pick from their inventory - all sizes and strains, then have a basket subtotal inc. free delivery if offered on multiples.
Found it hard to find vendors not freely on the items wall. Could they be listed in a directory A-Z then those that are "main wall" vendors could have an indicator like the blue tick system?
Strain Directory A-Z if you're looking for something specific.
Search bar - user, vendor, keyword etc.
Think these would make a better user experience.

There is a people wall...you can find vendors there also you can google them if they haven’t blocked it
For example google “littlebiggy Gods connect” and you get a return for a product say but not the profile, from there you can work your way in
Hope this helps

Anyone in Ballinasloe or Loughrea? Sorry new to this website.
can the stock numbers for vendor actually do something? they don't change
Your page restricted so cant mssg you directly (sorry everyone) you making a come back anytime soon bro?
Not a critisim, more a suggestion. If we could have sub menus in the items section.
For example I don't have an issue with scrolling down, however I only aquire carts so scrolling through pics of flowers, hash, edibles, wax, shatter is just plain teasing me. Would be nice if there were sub categories so you can go to something specific.

Waiting for escrow to release, even after the customer has received goods and positively reviewed!
This is a good thing and another example of why Lb is the safest place for customers. I came here from a dnm and my seller insisted that I finalize early so he could get the coin, he even insisted on positive reviews or he would blacklist people. Of course he wound up fucking me and a bunch of other people in the end and there wasn't anything we could do.
Send hundreds of orders out and not be paid! Totally unprofessional
How’s this happen mate ?
I don't like the fact you can place orders without logging in.
It might just be that I keep forgetting to log in mind.

Monero 100% and would be cool to see more vendors using PGP.
I think it's too hard to read through the content, too much, too big. Need the little in little biggy to shine too ya know
I like the LB concept, the rating system however is painfully slow, as a result LB get's boring as topics stay the same till the point that you have read whatever or posted whatever without being able to access other content. Without any further incentive this makes new users leave LB.
Are you expecting the intellectual quality to improve when using the rating system, or are you looking for the hard shit?
Neither. Let's say that the possibilities to explore LB are very limited with the initial set of rights. To have better ratings I could drop a shitload of articles, the kind of articles that anyone likes per human psyche. For example cats :) or puppies. Great for me but bad for LB, that would become a lame image board.
I think it would be beneficial if:
To have a 'topic and response' rating and a vendor rating.
To require a certain treshold, prior to having the option of becoming a vendor to weed out scammers and such.
Rating topics and responses is a difficult exercise as many downrate content they object (but is however useful content).

New vendors are basically invisible until they get some rep going, I've learned this by stumbling on to one and then never finding him again!
and rep is hard to come by!
I just throw shit out there. I've never been concerned with the ratings or pissing people off. I've voted a lot when l find something that catches my attention. I've never voted down once, even when l come across something that pisses me off. I only buy from one source, so l'm never concerned with having to file a dispute. I do understand what you're talking about. I still believe in the first amendment. Last year l watched it being torn apart, especially on college campuses where they no longer believe in letting someone speak if you don't agree with what they have to say.This is very much the same thing. Say what you need to say to get what you want. Sucks, but it is what it is.
What vendor do you use please mate ?
I don't really have much concerns either when it comes to content, only where I put it and how it is accessed. So I'll see what has precedence: rating or account age. To some extent I agree that people who instigate hatred, violence and racism are pushed back, the alt-right movement in the US became the victim of extremist right. They kept on pushing the limits to see how far they could go and the alt-right should have avoided to side with them.
The same applies for Antifa and extremist left. Whatever protest where you see them, you will find a couple of idiots waving a communist flag.
Bring them together and its tribal war. If Hitler, Mao, Mussolini or Stalin would see them, they'd command to execute them all.
There's space enough on the internet and if not there is always some dark net, to make whatever online mental institution/website to meet and share.
But to have all of that shit plastered all over the place ... nah.

Be careful about content and curiosity. I heard about three young men who decided to throw away their humanity, if they even had any to begin with, and go out and murder 21 innocent people in 20 days. They fucking did it to entertain themselves. It gets A LOT worse. They used their cell phones to record some of murders. God, l wish l would have listened to that little voice in my head, telling me "Do not go and look for this. It will damage you if you do." It's hard to do when you're told exactly how to find them. Fuck Fuck Fuck!!!!!!!! I didn't listen. It could be the worse thing l will ever experience in my life. It is definitely one of the biggest mistakes l've ever made. I can only say l have listened to that voice since then but it was too late to reverse the damage. Now, I only use the internet to buy shit and l only converse with people on this website. I can't be found on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. I have no use for any of them. In case you think l'm being overly melodramatic, go ahead and see for yourselves. I won't tell you where, but it's easy to find. Don't go looking for trouble. There's plenty to be found on the internet.
l don't get it. Everybody knows communism doesn't work. You still end up with a few people at the top deciding what's best for everyone else without any Input from said people. The only reason China is doing so well is because they kept a free market economy. If people think it's so great, go spend some time in North Korea. They better bring their own food.
Would be good if the checkout process for ordering was a basket style, so people can do it all in kne tranaction!
This would be the most welcome change to LB of all!
I paid twice for NDD before from the same vendor and received in one packet, but still paid twice, simply because the system is not helpful!
Still, Im still very much a kid in a sweet shop in here, so I'm happy with what we got :)

Amen!!!
There needs to be rankings, not just ratings. Most of the sellers have scores near 9/10 but some seem to have a lot more sales than others so the rating is more meaningful, same thing if the reviews are newer.
in my opinion people are giving 10/10 no matter what quality is like. they just so excited to get some. reviews style needs changing because customers cant rely on sellers giving honest descriptions.
if you get what you ordered why would you not rate it a 10? As far as strains go, it is easy to find online reviews of each one. But you want people to start rating on personal preference, what got them the best buzz, then it will get f'ed up. We don't need those ratings; we need to know if the seller delivers what he postsPERIOD
I'd like to see buyers rank things each time, ie is this average, above/below also would like to see % of buyers that repeat orders.
True mate if ratings were adjusted for freshness I'd be closer to a 10 than an 8
You've got a point it does work that way for girlfriends.
It has taken me a butload of time to build a reputation, I wish there was a quicker way because it's important is several situations
I'm getting used to it after a while, it seems that whatever powers that exist are distributed and they not abused from what I can tell so far. It also seems that the ones I thought about like mod or admin functionality have increasingly been put in my own hands. Why they aren't laid out I can't completely figure out but it is clear there isn't much that can be gamed in the hands of people with little rep.

I wonder is they use sniffer dogs- I know they keep an eye on packages from certain countries eg Holland and India. Has been in the news here that some bigger seizures have come from USA. Also, lately, that since pandemic 'deadly' birthday cake weed has been making its way from UK. Have a friend working for postal service, but not in sorting office- will see what I can find out, cheers. Menu looks great btw, look forward to ordering soon.
Good looking out - we have heard they introduced sniffers at customs recently. Let us know if your mate has any info :)

we need a way to compare shipping policies when browsing so we can compare offers better. this "regular customer" crap is unneeded with little biggy reputations, that's the whole point of this place.
Yes, it's a dumb move, this turns off so many people and the opportunity loss from that way exceeds the claims costs, especially with the escrow system in place.
We are just trying to reduce the potential for abuse of our system and save both parties time dealing with escrow - They are a necessary and appreciated part of LB community but its always easier keeping it party to party.
As we say we will take each matter on a case by case basis, it's not a personal or specific matter but a reflection of our general experiences and understanding of the site from our end.
It doesn't seem to have put off too many people but we can understand how T&C'S might come off with an abrubt or stern tone - just the nature of the format not our intention :)

As everyone said its fake so let's vote this off.
The vendor himself as admitted they are fake packaging so he now knows they are fake, these could be the vapes that has been killing people
didnt see you do this for those fake edibles you bought
Funny thing is i wasnt saying they should take the item down or anything just inquiring about the qr codes :|
you get a lot of people acting like mods here mate. spocks one of them. he's known to buy fakes and then smates anyone else that lists them or buys them.

If only there was a subscription service
Random thought - drugs inc have too many fantastic strains and I don’t have enough money. If only there was some sort of subscription service where you get new strains delivered when they arrive! I doubt it’s feasible but thought i’d share my thought. Maybe something to keep in mind if the legality ever changes :)
That’s it leanbean! DIUK have been bringing the pain over the last few months of lockdown. I’m liking the idea it could also be interactive whereby you can chat and order products live that would be interesting!
It’s a great idea where you could have different bundled packages like a basic subscription gets you like a half oz of different bud - a pic n mix type thing, then a bulk buy on different level subscription and maybes some custom specials on offer.
Would defo be a big hit I reckon and food for thought 8)

I'd just be happy with a basket. Doing our own custom orders without the need to pester vendors. This would be the single best improvement I could suggest.
Not a bad idea at all. Like a beer/wine club would be good as well. Maybe sample packs, could potentially set up a top up like service with your trusted vendor where you put funds down and get a monthly drop etc. etc definitely worth looking at
Its a fun thought but I don’t think it would work because of escrow and either vendors or buyers would have to take on significantly more risk for a subscription service to work. It’s why I don’t think we would see it unless cannabis is legalised
Like a Netflix for weed. Monthly subscription for new and upcoming releases! Featuring some of your old favourites lol. I think they have something like that in the US and Canada. A man can dream :P
Im thinking more like Prime, a subscription made at the biggy or transaxe or whatever level that lets me pick from multi sellers.

AI So What. There will always be work.
This humble and intelligent professor explains how machine replacement of jobs works out for people; it's always in ways that are new and unimaginable. It is certain we are in for a great time with A.I. enabling us to to incredible stuff.
If there is work for humans it has to be something A.I. can't do. We are all teaching it to do everything, even (especially) right here.
I think its like retirement age is on the horizon and humans need to decide what they are going to do with all the free time.
I think its like retirement age is on the horizon and humans need to decide what they are going to do with all the free time.
I'm looking forward to the futher development of AI, especially General AI. I just think it would be so cool to have an amazon alexa sytle AI that you could take round with you and chat to and have a proper engaging conversation with because sometimes I really can't stand to talk to anymore humans aha
AI is well past any notion or idea we can fathom. AI dosent follow ANY rule we stand by.
We as humans will never quite grasp the entire picture, while AI has already found the end of the road. there are things in basic sciences kept from most people, like gravity drives, the TIME axis (think twister/tornado), scalar waves, over unity devices, etc... AI wont follow the bounds because its supressed by money or greed...
we as humans can TRY to think what will happen, but in all reality, were already in the losing seat without any hope for a "comeback kid story"
Stop thinking in a 3rd dimension mindset, and learn quantum physics a little. (want to be totaly mindblown?? look up QUANTUM radar- and how its actualy In use RIGHT NOW!)
--note-- the united states has 3 confirmed quantum computers in use! (i accidently came across one when i traveled for work, but most people wouldnt know to look at the cryogentics involved)
Machine-in-a box- experiment has already proven even the smartest among us, would lose.
me,myself ,personaly, am clueless what outcomes will unfold, but without any doubt , humans are not top priority when AI is really awake. current neuro-nets are mind boggling and google themselves admits they cant explain how its AI created child AI even works. (yes, AI created its own second AI) want to me mind blown again,years ago it was used, look up the AI that was tested in new yorks hospital system. the smartest doctors from the world STILL dont understand what that AI did , and how it was so correct/right 97%.)
i wont lie and say its all terminator 2JD, but that is one possible outcome. we as fellow fleshy companions should enjoy life now and every moment. we wont have many opertunities when AI is out of the box.
Note: its not IF , but WHEN, and WHEN happens?? ---will humans stand a chance or will an outaide force be required? (aliens, god, let your mind wander)

we as humans can TRY to think what will happen, but in all reality, were already in the losing seat without any hope for a "comeback kid story"
Stop thinking in a 3rd dimension mindset, and learn quantum physics a little. (want to be totaly mindblown?? look up QUANTUM radar- and how its actualy In use RIGHT NOW!)
--note-- the united states has 3 confirmed quantum computers in use! (i accidently came across one when i traveled for work, but most people wouldnt know to look at the cryogentics involved)
Machine-in-a box- experiment has already proven even the smartest among us, would lose.
me,myself ,personaly, am clueless what outcomes will unfold, but without any doubt , humans are not top priority when AI is really awake. current neuro-nets are mind boggling and google themselves admits they cant explain how its AI created child AI even works. (yes, AI created its own second AI) want to me mind blown again,years ago it was used, look up the AI that was tested in new yorks hospital system. the smartest doctors from the world STILL dont understand what that AI did , and how it was so correct/right 97%.)
i wont lie and say its all terminator 2JD, but that is one possible outcome. we as fellow fleshy companions should enjoy life now and every moment. we wont have many opertunities when AI is out of the box.
Note: its not IF , but WHEN, and WHEN happens?? ---will humans stand a chance or will an outaide force be required? (aliens, god, let your mind wander)
in my opinion, there are some "things" machines/AI will never be able to do. inspiration for instance.
fear of AI dominance, as i think, comes mainly from our knowledge-without-understanding of the fact that we are not doing some things that we are supposed to do.

The inspiration process is largely about open mindedness, computers are inherently better at this. If you look at some of the early entrees into the arts like painting and even screen writing they are off to a helluva start.
Isn't inspiration a fairly consistent pattern? New inputted data connects to stored data in a way that re-organizes it.
AI are and will be good for work and a suitable replacement for humans, but even when that happens AI will always need us in case something goes wrong. I mean humans created AI, so in the end we’re always gonna have the more important jobs. AI is just there to do jobs in a more efficient way.
im not so sure, anything a human does to recover the system seems doable with a very separate AI
Yes but conflict between AI's might be the most dangerous thing we are looking at here. We are incidental casualties from that perspective. By we I mean humans :)
Yes all the Scifi is about humans vs AI but AI on AI is such a real possibility especially when you consider the fact that governments are mega funding military robots to fight each other.
I totally disagree. AI is the continuation of the same pyramid model of which history has proven that it's bound to fail. The resources needed are of a scale that requires heavy (and never ending) financial investments. The food eaten by AI is data. The provider: humanity.
The larger the scale of data one can feed, the better the AI (and it's owners) can fingerprint, the more refined it's targeting.
Let's take an example of "AI" that we all know:
Software Antivirus:
Supposed to be the guardian that protects an operating system against 'threats' and 'threat actors using a variety of techniques to identify them. Pattern based detection, behavioural analysis and heuristics (an expensive word for: 'guesstimating' or an 'educated' guess). Your antivirus is part of a swarm that provides the antivirus vendor with data on new threats and their geographic impact.
However:
The data you provide is 'free', there is no reward or any form of renumeration for the infrastructure that you provided. A computer is not free, internet is not free, the power needed is also not free and although there are free AV solutions, most demand a subscription fee.
In return you get a product and service which does not provide any guarantees that it will adequately protect you against 'threats'.
In reality AV is becoming a relic.
Human intelligence has outsmarted AV and found ways to circumvent it using the 'Trojan horse' approach or by simple social engineering.
As there was no incentive to find or report security vulnerabilities, the data needed to feed pattern/behavioural dried up.
Heuristics is gambling with historical data, if that data is worthless so are heuristics.
And so is any form of AI hence all media and marketing efforts to portray it as the next best evolution. The driver: more profit less people.
The touted theories about a minimal wage without having to work for it are a continuation of AI Utopia. It would make people dependent on their nations through a socialist measure.
That spells national socialism and fascism.
Think twice before you give out data for free in exchange for a freemium service.

If you just think as an individual what would it be like if you had a bot to do all of your work that sounds great. You'd fuck around a lot but eventually wind up doing something that meant something to you. Now imagine everyone doing that.

Roach vs Filter. What you using?
Hey LB
Just wondering what your using for Roach?
Love the adaptability of Roach to fit a cone etc. But, my lungs cant take the punishment so work with Rolls69 filters now. Also adaptable air flow by advancement and retraction to cool things.
What you fellow enthusiasts using?? Just a general community question....

Deffo a cardboard roach for me, size appropriate to the chunkyness of mix ur putting in, i personally don't like my buds ground up to dust like it still chunky as a find when u get a good blast of a little bud you don't half know abt it, each to there own though
not sure what people mean by filter (an actual filter on a joint? never heard of it)... what I got used to do and find it difficult to do NOT do now is to use the tip of the cigarette (1cm max) as filter itself. He smokes lighter than a roach (smoother on your throat), but it taste better (get oily and if you the last puff is as good as the first)...
Raw roach or splinter Z vape for me bro. Couldn't justify using a filter that would be filtering my THC. You'll lose around 5-10% using those.
usually vape bro, but for blunts I use same shit :D only downside is price lol 10 quid for a pack.
I prefer the raw extra wide tips. I see you gave up tobacco. I was never a cigarette smoker and don't particularly like tobacco. I use a Real leaf herbal mix. Some of my friends can't stand it but I find it's not harsh on the throat like tobacco if you're a non-smoker. Each to their own I guess. Vaporise as well but it's hard to beat tight joint and I enjoy the process of skinning one up
lol same stuff with real leaf :D it's smells nice form the pack or when you smoke it yourself, but when my gf smokes it smells like burning plastic
Roach and tightly pack the bottom which acts as a filter its self.
Cotton filters should be illegal as you are basically smoking cotton as the hot smoke oxidises it.
On a side not ive recently switched to a small glass water pipe and my lungs have never been better, fuck all this paper man.

Interested in trying out a small glass pipe aint you recommend mate wouldn't mind fucking tobacco off finally and same goes for smoking papers
i cant resist gving some skins trivia lol, Did YoU KnOW..? RAW and elements and juicy jays are all the same guys company, theres a great video on the history of RAW papers by J the owner/founder, makes you appreciate a guy who has a total passion for the best rolling papers he could possibly make, using 70 yo artisans to do the watermark on RAW papers. getting them made at the oldest rolling paper factory in the world in alcoy i think.
Didn't know this but delighted because I started using Raw Connisseurs (I think thats how you spell it?) about 2 years ago and now I hate rolling with anything else.
The 32 leaf pack comes with 32 perfect sized roaches and they just so the job perfectly in my opinion. Thanks for the trivia mate!

I find the raw skins dont really roll to a cone, they kinda fold into a cone, end up with a strange 20 sided shape joint lol, but i like a loose pack and a fast burn! So probably not an ideal skin for my rolling style, Zig zag blues or OCB hemps all the way!
FYI when i smoke blues, i fold, lick and tear about 6mm strip off the bottom of the skin, then roll. Ends up basicaly 1 papers thick all around the cone but the roach end, a nicer, less paperier smoke!
Anyone ever find smoking silvers that the paper burns to fast for the cherry, and you end up sucking half air half smoke through the roach, feels like you loosing half your joint? Just me maybe lol
(I can roll joints honest! 20years experience lol, i just like em loosey goosey)

I've used menthol filters when smoking for a long while. Back in the days I used a roach but that's too harsh for me as I'm getting on a bit. (Oh dear poor little me ha ha). I quite enjoy a J with menthol filters. BUT I hear menthol filters are being outlawed in England?? To stop younger people. Is that true or have I been told a fib?
No mate, only banning flavoured tobacco. Papers and filters are ok but can't be sold with tobacco included. A bit strange mind using them in spliffs haha but each to their own :).
Roach 100 percent
Charcoal actitube slim filters, so much lighter on lungs, much tastier and hits you the same as normal joint.
Roach, card from papers
I just throw in a roach of whatever is at hand (usually the skin packet) or the pre-cut stuff you get with skins
Glass tips or Raw Roaches.
Am also a big fan of the rolls69

Running a moist tongue along the edge over from the gummy allows the gummy strip to be torn off. The ragged edge can be bonded to the rolled J and one may enjoy a gum free puff.
Just to add , i do roll pure as had to give up tobacco .
Raw roach, I find filters take something away from the smoke.
What papers are you using mate?
What papers are you using mate?
yes but when im done and look at what they took out i'm not thinking that's shit i can't miss out on. as i finally have weed abundance (thanks biggas) i'm not thinking fuck i better make this last like i used to.
Use a variety. Rizla Micron or unbleached(real nice).
Currently using Cannaseurs extra long/ extra slim which have the +/-.
Next to try I have Raw Black

The best papers you could use, when you burn a paper on its own theres nothing left. I buy a 50 box at a time :)
Hi there, I’m currently using raw roach, someone was nice enough to buy me a shop box last Christmas and I’m still getting through them. I’m also a big fan of Quintessential hemp coated tips, I really like the booklets they make.
I have tried filterd joints out of curiosity but didn’t really enjoy it.
Raw are my go to paper, I like that it now that they so easily available in most UK news agents, definitely a step up from the blue rizla.

Oh yeah, it’s the way forward. These elements papers look nice, will have to give those a try.
Raw black all day
For me I suggest forget any joint everyone should have a roor bong it's the only way to smoke! and much better on your lungs ,I personally ain't smoked a j for years, I remember going in the ganja museum and had picture of the human body and it said most healthy way to smoke weed is in a water pipe i.e BONG! Plus a good cherp sorts out the men from the boys! If you wanna invest in a smoking equipment forget vapes spend 300 quid on a proper bong

World Riot I
folks lets call this beast what it is, a global street revolution.
while corporate media tries its best to treat all this as unconnected, one-off, occurrences that gets pretty fucking ridiculous when 20 minutes of the 30 minutes news is riots (the other 10 is still commercials to return our wages back to the machine itself).
of course it's global that's what your media has achieved, a whole world scared of the same thing, an ultimate lowest common denominator. well now you fuckers have divided by zero and it doesn't feel very good does it. suddenly you're not so sure?
fear not, the greediest of the bunch will see a profit in spade calling soon enough. the world riot is an irresistible story even if it is the truth. however what comes after that will arrive between our cheeks boys and girls, the gang of leaders that will "restore order". because let's face it these people are getting dangerous and they are holding umbrellas and some have completely unregulated paintball rifles, someone could lose an eye if we don't lock them up and get on with normal life. will it require a few more powers? more than last time? yes, times change and these new agitators are equipped with texting, it takes ages to read all this, some of it still doesn't go through us to begin with.
please take my remote away, im falling asleep through it this time. you're all getting cancelled soon enough.

Prophetic bigga, do you think this latest one is any different?
No doc it was co-opted by political opportunists and sold out to corporations before it was old enough to shit by itself.
It doesn't seem like any of the protests are peaceful but are they all riots?
The whole thing seems so dystopian like when they show the news in a sci fi movie and the world is falling apart.
I wanna riot of my own!

Lost BTC - anybody had this before?
I just sent some BTC over, never had issues before. My nodes all say transfer complete to the correct address, however after the 30mins nothing was received.
No idea what to do! Not great throwing $100 down the toilet tbh.
Anybody ever experienced this?
Cheers

Cheers
No one ever has experienced this for very long becuase it is impossible to lose BTC. Every movement of every coin is a matter of public record. Just contact transaxe and they will sort you.
Track the transaction on the block chain
Blockchain shows the transfer complete to the correct address. I have noticed that I don’t seem to have enough confirmations on the transaction yet - but it’s marked as complete, is there a possibility there is just an unexpected delay and this could still go through?
20mins and 0/6 confirmations
20mins and 0/6 confirmations
Even without all confirmations, it should still show up in the receiving wallet. Hmm. This is a strange one. Can you be 100% sure it didnt arrive? Is it just on trust that you believe it hasnt arrived? Or have you seen proof?
Okay just had to edit this message - false alarm, just checked my orders here and now saying Paid. PHEW! That was a worry.
Thanks for being so quick to help out bro, really appreciate that!
Thanks for being so quick to help out bro, really appreciate that!
I had one take over an hour today... first time ever it's not completed within 30 mins. Thankfully I wasn't ordering 5 mins before a cutoff time, like I usually seem to end up doing.
Same thing with me, had a transaction take almost 4 hours to complete last night. Woke up this morning and showing as paid. Panic stations for a while yesterday though.
Brilliant! I didnt realise you meant for an order! This has happened to me before! Glad its sorted for you now! No problem! Ps. Not a "bro" haha ;)

Why is it so hard to forgive others?
The people of Hiroshima, Dresden, Afghanistan, Vietnam, most of Latin America, the list goes on forever and they have all forgiven the US for official actions that pale next to what a few lunatic terrorists have done. Yet the whole Muslim world including that within the US is hated and attacked endlessly.
Yes but they aren't even the demons anymore, the US just really needs enemies to kill or the guns come out at each other.
Truth. Altho all the borders drawn up by us brits after the second World War somewhat helped in creating those modern day situations
Its funny how govements target certain peoples, in the 90s it was a war against the IRA in the uk. Now they seem to target anything Islam.
All threats are targets, immediate threats are priority
It’s amongst first line defence next to keeping the peace

Well we all have a fresh common enemy now.
Please remember that hate doesn't solve anything the way forgiveness does.

Some truth here for sure but conflation too. Japan - started a way against millions of people. Germany - started a war and genocide against millions more. I will grant you the others though, they were countries minding their own business.
True. Before the Americans Islam endured British Colonization and before that the centuries long Crusades. Yeah they have done a some crazy shit especially at the fringes but the score is a fuckin blowout with the Christians scoring way, way more kills and it's still not enough.
And the basis of Christianity is forgiveness!

I’ve cried every morning this week watching the news. Actually makes me feel abit ashamed to be white! Corruption on top of more fucking corruption the innocent suffer as the rich get richer but they have no soul
That's racism against white people and a modern revival of the religious need to feel guilty. There's no race/country in the world (at least none on the bigger/more widespread) that hasn't done something horrible and shameful. Please stop all that negativity. White people are not that specially evil. Look around you and you will find great human beings. Stick with them and forget all the media and politicians bullshit
