What's there not to understand? Like me, he posts on this forum because he wants to. Like me he wants to get paid for that, because why wouldn't you? It's a way of supporting the bitcoin economy and it is a feature that I've never seen on any other forum, that is, renting out signature space. I don't know how sig campaigns came into existence, but it seems a little unfair that people who make quality posts get criticized for participating in them. They are, either explicitly or implicitly, endorsed by Theymos.

I have no problem whatsoever with signature campaigns. As I've said in other threads, it's a neat concept and seems to be unique to bct. It's the people who shitpost that ruin it for everyone else

Nicely put.
Though there are many that hate signature campaigns, It is acually a great way of keeping the Bitcoin ecosystem going.
Since mining is now seen as unprofitable unless your electricity fees are less than $0.09/KWh, it is probably the second most used way of distributing Bitcoins and give members a chance of earning when they wouldn't normally.

One of the most trust worthy escrows in the forum gets banned for signature spam, classy. :p

And the guy who recently had some troubles with him comes up to twist the knife in the wound, surprising.

Hey, I ain't twistin' any knifes here. Don't you find it funny that a guy who claims to have escrowed 8k bitcoins was spamming for a signature campaign? I do.

It does seem a bit like you are trying to twist a knife. I don't believe that being in a signature campaign itself means that you are a spammer.

If this is correct and he did make multiple posts in a row, then that is another thing entirely as he should really have known not to do that and can now learn for next time (when he could be permabanned)!
