Well I think CP could get the tracking site for Sri Lanka or India or some other Asian countries. But as many Asians do not speak english (even those businessmen at trade fairs) you might think of a translation to whatever languages are common in Asia..

Even the small percentage that does speak english is far bigger in number than the entire europe put together! So language will never be a problem.

I considder tracking to be science. Today tracking seems to be even more complicated than General Relativity (believe me, I know what I am speaking of). Hence it will get very hard to be good at every single currency out there. WG does Dollar research, EBT does some pooling research and ET does some serial array research,.... What about spreading word in Sri Lanka and getting a LKR expert site? Than, I'll surely track my Rupees there, if I ever get some :roll:
Nothing in Science cannot be replicated. As time does we will be able to afford all of this and then maybe we will look into this. The key is the validation to ensure that the users enter proper serials. We are working on this. With all of this research WG, EBT an ET all have fake notes, wrong serials and dont have 100% guaranteed validation when you enter the note.

This is generally true. On the other hand, let him help make the site better and fix some inconveniencies. We have the experiences as EBT-users. Why not help an ambitious creator of a global site of that kind?

I was only responding to doiknow when I made that remark. Maybe I was a bit hypersensetive, but I got the idea that something gave him the shivers. That's why I wrote that.

About the currencypath-site: I think that is can/will be a good option for people that travel much and use lots of different currencies. You can track them all with only one account. Since I am not such a person, I will stay at EBT.

2. US$ series added
3. Credits page - for those of you who have given ideas on improvement. Let me know if you dont want your name to appear here.

Hi guys. As some of you have noticed, this issue is a bit sensitive issue for us. In the spirit of free speech I'm not going to lock or delete this topic, at least not right now.

However, as Phaseolus kindly pointed out,
As I am in charge of the Cleaning Girls, I will make the following warning : don't come and complain if your name appears in the future linked with any funny faker. By that time, don't come and complain that you have been misused.
This is very true -- by submitting your serial numbers to some other site not directly in EBT's control, there's always a risk of those serial numbers leaking out somewhere some day, one way or another. I'd personally advise against entering Euros to CP, but for other currencies you might have floating around the site is probably fine.

Even though I do support free speech, I feel that any and all Currency Path enhancement discussions should not be discussed here on EBT's forum. Set up your own forum if you wish to ask your website users about how to add arabic letters.

p.s. Don't quote entire messages when replying.

I don't understand the hostility in this topic. I like to track my euronotes at EBT and when I go outside the eurozone, I would also like to be able to track the local currency. This exactly what I am going to do with Currency Path unless there is a specific tracking site for it (for instance SEK-tracker for Swedish Crowns). I already registered at the site and tracked six Russian Rubles notes there which I had left over from a trip to Veliky Novgorod in April. Too bad I didn't no of the site in last November when I visited Poland (strangely though, there doesn't seem to be any Polish Zlotys tracked at the site).

You could also include Serbian dinar and Bosnia and Herzegovina convertible mark.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the owner/administrator of the site is very interested in developing it anymore.
