You guys sound really so angry and cold towards this guy in a way that really gets me so confused. What is the forum all about? What constitutes an offence here? what is a spam in the actual sense and what constitutes a spam on bitcointalk forum? And the guy seems to be so sorry about the situation and none seems to appreciate his stance. This is not the first place I am witnessing this. In every forum where someone has complained about a banned account, everyone, especially the senior members get really mad at him and treats him as the devil himself, why is it so?
I am a newbie, without any computer knowledge but my friends who know some other potentials of mine thought that I will do well here. But this issue of banned account and the hatred it attracts gives me a lot of concerns. Please can someone kindly explain the reason for such reaction towards an individual with a banned account?
This community is extremely welcoming to genuine new users. New users are the life blood of Bitcoin IMO. There is also a large section of this community that is really frustrated by people coming here with the sole intent of "milking the cow".
We have ALL asked stupid questions or asked a question that has been answered before. We have ALL responded off topic to a post. The point is NO ONE is getting banned for a couple of simple mistakes we have all made.
If you have a genuine problem no matter has "silly" you will very likely find someone to lend a hand around here. If you actually contribute to conversations and not just answers OP's like there test questions you will find a tremendous amount of people willing to chat with you!
The best advice I could give any genuine new user to this forum would be to forget about signature campaigns and bounties, just be part of the community. Once you understand how the culture is here and you have been able to figure out how to get some merit legitimately then I think it would be appropriate to test the waters on some of the additional benefits the forum has to offer.
