They give this guy a negative DT rating but don't bother with confronting the lazy campaign manager that is enabling this spam to go on. That doesn't make sense to me. It reminds me of the police going after drug users and not the ones dealing the drugs.

Again, I dont agree with this method either and talked to Lauda directly about that as well. I prefer going after the managers and its what I and others will do in the future.

Clearly the OP thought it was okay as he was still being accepted in the campaign for his posts and why not? If you are doing something for a while and nothing out of the ordinary is mentioned why would you stop?

Did you miss the post by rizzlarolla? I think the OP tried to make it look like this, but does know very well whats wrong.

But, the thing that tops it all off and is the real reason I came to this thread. Laura is Staff, everyone knows this, and she gave him negative trust for spamming. This is her decision and it was made.

The problem here is if she felt he was spamming so badly that he deserves a negative rating then why didn't she delete his spam?

Lauda cant, as I said earlier they are lacking the required powers. Lauda is also a person high enough on the default trust network to matter. Thus this alternative approach. Id prefer this was not needed, but this requires action by one of the admins.

It can't be as bad as she is saying, 'severe spam', if it is still there. That seems like common sense to me, how did she miss the exact reason she negged him?

In addition as I am curious, did this user receive any sort of warning beforehand about his behavior? I've been found guilty of spam myself but staff didn't come at me with negative trust they simply deleted the posts they considered spam from different threads.

Granted the posts they deleted were not spam, they were simply notices posted on different coins ANN threads letting them know that their coin was added to my database website and to let me know if stuff needed updated. It is essentially the same thing except over 100 of my posts were deleted during this time. Nothing was said to me, I said nothing. I understood from that point on that it isn't allowed on the forum.

The normal warning for spam is a 7 day ban.
