Are Meta Keywords That Important Now?... i think they arent...
mahesh2k replied to deadmad7's topic in Search Engines
Google doesn't pay attention to them anymore. Some other search engines still crawl for them . (for example, cuil, quintura etc etc). I yet to see any good posts from Aron wall or matt cuts about meta tags importance in new SE update (Google & Bing). If you're using wordpress then i suggest using these plugins:Headspace 2All in one SEO And then do the tweaks that are necessary for your wordpress setup. These two plugins are enough for most of the SEO tweaks. -
Mycent - It's Still Inactive [resolved]
mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
That's just my feeling out of fear that admins (or maybe some over-sensitive mods who suggested this feature) got privileges to modify and give us mycents(i'm not sure when it's going to be implemented or got implemented). Note: You can read about this in discussion about mycent thread (official). Oh wait, this fear is just my feeling and not *helpful information* ya know. Then again the person who wrote mycent & is going to give us mycent 4.0 even for adding links to credible site like wikipedia can't write simple algorithm in downtime to calculate mycents based on post count/char count and allot mycent that shows decimal places ?jeez. This type of thinking just beats me, oh wait again that is just my feeling and not helpful information. Warning:- this post is not loaded with helpful information, read other posts if you want *helpful information*. -
You can't change the username. There is way to delete the account though. I'm not sure what could be your personal username for twitter. I suggest checking out other popular tweeter users then decide by making list of pseudonames.

They're really not taking things seriously with some products. Some of their products always remain in beta. Chrome was in beta for long time. Same is the case with wave. That way it's really hard for them to get more users because some people don't like using beta products for long time. Besides that many products of google accomplish limited goals, like google set. But then again it's upto google to decide whether to continue or dump their own products. We can't do anything, because they even dumped google notebook the best product they had.

mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
I don't want to comment on what you've earned personally, that is none of my business. But what i've seen from 1-2 liner post in comparison to lengthy posts is all i'm talking about. In that case,your observation totally fails and that is seen your quoted examples. Even your current reply with 163 words (upto you to keep track of character count) compare that with what others are posting here. So you're right there is definitely more than character count, mycent bot learned how to differentiate between quality in posting. That is why those posts will be rewarded. Maybe i should start posting copy-pasted thread like fermin,atleast that way i'll understand hidden admin work behind mycents post rewards. Yes, i'm paranoid and no it's not your account only that is working,it's just me tired of system that is not rewarding lengthy posts but rewarding 1-2 liner posts without updating manually by admins. And yes, mycents are working fine and they're updated everyday. It's just me, who wants to spread rumors with false observation. I'm done. -

Thanks for suggestion. But things don't work like that. I posted more than 20 posts in downtime this june(i'm explicitly mentioning case of update in june because this is where doubt sparked in my mind) and i got credited only 1 $ for that, this is in logs even. Considering character count and even those *other factors which opaque mentioned*, 1$ is way too low. And if you think new system doesn't reward for character count or is updated to ignore this, then you need to re-read what you're telling to others. If you think posting 50 words of 2 liner post in 10-15 threads gives you 4$(which is justifiable as per you) in comparison to posts which has more character count then you seriously need a read of mycent thread. Again this is your perspective but in the downtime in which mycents are given manually to me (or any other member) is not at all slowing their progression. The way some admins have got control for mycents and who knows even mods got it behind i can't trust this manual allocation system. Manual mycent updates which ignore character count shows what's fuss is going on. I don't want to pin point here to create new mess with center of attraction. I see no reason for PM to opaque. Even if i wish to what i'm supposed to ask him ? that i'm getting less mycents than others in this manual updates that way he's going to boost things for me right ? yeah sure. As once you said in other thread, he owes nothing to me or other forum members, right ? True,it's not at all helping and system is down for more than 4 months now so i don't expect progress anytime soon. This system is screwed and i can understand that difference of opinion for it is really not understood by mods/admin and other members. Pretending everyday about things going well is going way over my head. It may be working for you and some other members but it's definitely not working well overall. I've issues with loading Xisto here at workplace from where i'm accessing this & other forums, otherwise i couldn't have bothered to post in this forum for such discussion cause Xisto can earn me enough mycent instead of manual 2 $mycents in this buggy forum. Your view in this quoted sentence helps me come back to reality. Now i can understand why people here think that what's in it for them to continue on this forum as loyal member. Owner owes nothing to us afterall. Thanks. I just hope Xisto becomes accessible here for me so i can better spend my time there instead of wasting here. -

mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
I posted more than 15 posts so far in week and never get more than 2$ and even that update took more than week to appear on account. Now don't say that it's on quality posting or length (bots are not smart enough in 2010 to identify quality other than character count). Send PM ? LOL, As if it is going to work. We all know that mycent thing is screwed. You're the only person in forum right now who is getting regular(or maybe accurate) updates and the update the way you predicted. Rest of the others are getting random amount of mycents in their account. If it works for you that doesn't mean it works for all of us. Mycent is not like typical OS troubleshoot, it's buggy more than anything in this forum. Every now and then it gets into trouble and many people don't get credited what they're supposed to do with it. If you don't care because it works for you, that doesn't mean mycent is working fine for all because it's not. -
Choose from following ID proof options: - Driving License - Ration Card (with your name in it) - Voters card (if you're 18) - Telephone/Electricity bill(for address verification) - Passport(i'm not sure about this) Yes you can use fathers name/card for validating paypal account(this is allowed because you're in family with same sirname). I'm using my fathers credit card for validating (though i've my own) That is because you've better security on & off internet. FBI/CIA is watching you guys. And with forms F9 etc, they're keeping eye on your internet income as well. There is no such thing here in india. This ID proof is just one step ahead of doing what US already did in terms of security. Here in asia, you can create passport for bin laden easily ( J/K little bit exaggerated but there are examples how our security is compromised when one politician(raj thackerey) demonstrated by creating ration card(ID) on name of famous terrorist (kasab)who attacked on 26/11).

Mycent - It's Still Inactive [resolved]
mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
Most of the users here are getting 2$ mycents no matter how lengthy or short they post. Plus it's general observation that you can check that only number of posts are checked here and that shows it's manual update. Why will new mycent will reward less for longer posts if it's running right now (or working as most of people are saying)? -
Mycent - It's Still Inactive [resolved]
mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
To be honest it's not working at all. Notice the days when the mycents are updated. It's usually updated only when opaque comes online. It's easy to guess when opaque does maintenance here. Friday-monday are the days when mycents updates usually in such downtime. Last update for me was on friday. Now more than week passed and they're not updated. So it's safe to say that mycents are not updated and are manually given to active users. No matter how you calculate your post strength you'll notice that the mycent given in this manual update are random and not at all as per the calculation people make here. Anyway, this is how my observation are going on. Maybe i'll be getting less mycents for voicing this opinion. But anyway, i feel like posting because these are my observations. -
Inception is good movie. The way christopher nolan directed it make it more interesting. If you're into psychological thriller or fantasy movies then you'll get the plot in few minutes. And even after knowing entire movie, you'll enjoy the story. The flow is so smooth it keeps you on chair till the end. That's very good direction. Though some people thought it like matrix but there was not much of like that. More of loose plot than matrix but much better and easy to understand. I don't know if it's in sci-fi but i found it like fantasy or psychological movie. Nice movie i must say.

@rpgsearcherz: PAN card is like Tax ID/SSN.@Livepcportal: You don't need to be 18 years to get pan card. Even 5 year old kid can get PAN card. You can get that card in 15 days from NSDL. Apply for pan card from your nearest income tax office. You can also fill out form online and then send money to them for card via DD or credit card. There are some tax payment sites where they can do this job for you if you have credit card or debit card. Some banks also help their customers to get PAN card. See that with your nearest bank. Paypal is making this PAN card manadatory in order to avoid future issues. So give them what they want and avoid trouble of limiting your PP account in future.

Some of my observation:1. There are type of people who like back *BLEEP*ing (gender isn't issue here). They just want to point the faults of others and want to feel good about that. I don't know their ego rises to top because of it perhaps.2. Then there are people who like to bully others in group or in party. They're scared sheep when they're alone but when in group they take advantage and do all they can to bully, back *BLEEP*ing and bad-mouth others. 3. Another type is which don't bother others but only care for what they are and think. They're into attitude and manipulative mode. These three types of people are quite common and you can't treat single out of these in same way. But over time you'll learn or fail to deal with these types.

Your thread reminded me about the vacation that i failed to take this year. Lol about your dentist story. On the sidenote, you need to take vacation atleast once in year. Going away from home and workload helps sometimes. By the way, just curious about the dogs you keep. Why not post their pictures in new thread. Maybe that way we can all post about our pets.

How Do I Get Started On Building A Website?
mahesh2k replied to webbee's topic in Websites and Web Designing
There are some auction site scripts and classified ads scripts. Check if those scripts suits your needs. Once you install that script, get things going by making dummy bids. Once you do that, it's time to get publicity and traffic. Once you get atleast 1000 visitors a day then it's time to move to VPS or dedicated server. Make sure you sign up to host which offers both shared, VPS and dedicated services for the cost that you can afford. -
I see this differently. These loopholes are thought as perfect defense at first but soon humans find a way out of almost every restriction. It's like lock and key. More difficult lock we find to break, someone comes up and finds a way out. It's not about legal system. It's about ability of humans to get around things. It's not just about rules, crime, morality. Think about this from psychological viewpoint. People in boredom and needs commit crime than people who are satisfied. Boredom gives rise to random thinking in our head. With boredom we can find a way out of many things.

Paypal India Will Block Electronic Withdrawals From July 29
mahesh2k replied to The Simpleton's topic in General Discussion
Cool news. I'll see if i can withdraw my money from paypal to bank. Thanks for the news. Though i didn't received any message or email in any case. Weird though, i didn't get email for first issue explained in this thread nor the update where electronic transactions were back. -
Hmm, but how many people are actually using this package ? this restriction really makes it difficult to use the package. People will prefer dreamhost package over this xisto package. I mean with dreamhost you get shell access, limited chat room or streaming plus lots of bandwidth and you can add-on domain names as well. but in this package of xisto you can't do that. By the way welcome to xisto.

Mycent - It's Still Inactive [resolved]
mahesh2k replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in Alerts, News & Announcements
I can understand your problem. Even i'm posting longer posts and for more than 20 posts like that i'm only getting 2$-3$ which is very low if we look at length of the posts. Though many people may disagree with it but i found that issue way earlier. The reason behind it is that we're getting manual mycent updates and these are not calculated based on algorithm but because of limited people posting here let admin calculate it based on number of posts.It's easy for them to manually give us mycent cause ahrdly 10-25 people are coming online and posting here these days. I know sounds weird but seriously we're getting low mycents than expected. I hate to say, PM opaque or hang on till update but that's the only worst thing left here to do. Post genuinely for those 2$-3$ for your quality posts, duh seriously it's too much but nothing we can do if our only source for mycent is from forums. -
really ? but you know what, no christian can prove it at all. They'll just spam with posting bible quotes, it's said in bible and hence true type of quackery. i hear ya, you support christian views but you're not christian type. Your source for claims against scientists ? evolutionists claim that humans and apes shared common ancestor, not common DNA. Get your sources right instead of following conservepedia and BS creationist websites. All creationist can do is question up and don't want to understand. Even your creationism can't answer these question and instead wants to end up these questions by sayin "god did it or designer did it". I wonder you ever even read about fossil proofs of evolution. oh well, i'm answering to creationist lover.

Sounds like inception lol. Other than the scale with which we measure time there is actual expansion of universe and events occur wrt time. Our perception of time may be related to brain activity and it does help us to get around universe but other than that, one can really experience time wrt to environment. Let's take example of species who can't perceive time, in that case whether they lie or die, time continues to move ahead. I'm not into tunnel theory of time but still, it's not just about brain,it's actually moving ahead.

That's not true. Many corportate environments don't allow their users to download messenger or any software. Because of this i think there is limitation which restrict people from communicating. In such cases browser based messengers are cool. If people want down loadable version of the software then they can always choose multi-messengers like nimbuzz, trutapp or trillian. Using browser based messenger is indeed convenient for those who are restricted from downloading capability or installation capability.

Paypal India Will Block Electronic Withdrawals From July 29
mahesh2k replied to The Simpleton's topic in General Discussion
The only issue paypal users will have now is more and more people who are trying to sell their services or product from india will move. They've option to move to e-junkie or similar services. There will be waste of time if people keep on using paypal and get enforced with such restriction. Be it RBI or Paypal issue, with this announcement paypal took their service back to 2003-05. I really feel like moving back in time with this news. What's going on between RBI and paypal. I'm sure this will hurt freelance and other online markets and surely affect online purchases of indians using paypal. Looks like alertpay does have future. Maybe someone planted inception in paypal company. -
Paypal India Will Block Electronic Withdrawals From July 29
mahesh2k replied to The Simpleton's topic in General Discussion
Just checking the news. I think they're removing the wire transfer method. With that method it was possible for sellers and users to transfer money to bank using SWIFT code. But as RBI is having issues with paypal because of illegal money transfers they're stopping this now. With check it's possible to catch every transaction coming and going outside. Not much of damage but looking at the condition of paypal, i must say all indian users should switch to moneybookers or alertpay. If possible convince google for opening indian section of google checkout.
