Hey there,

My bitcointalk account (not this one) got banned for : "you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum.
Reason: Participating in an on-forum altcoin giveaway (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3953664.0). Ban duration: 7 days"

The Link on the ban take you to this: "Incentivizing posting within one or several threads via low effort tasks (e.g. signups or proof of participation for liking, following, subscribing, retweeting, tweeting a single tweet, joining a channel or group, etc.) is not allowed as it falls under the "no altcoin giveaways" rule (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2103687.0)"


I'm trying to understand here, now I do several bounties of different types... I follow the instructions given on the bounty thread on bitcointalk but then it seems the bounties can ask us to do the tasks but the fellony here is when we do them??

Or maybe I got banned for something other than posting my weekly bounty tasks? (I  either do bounties or engage in chat about Alt/btc)


Another thing I find difficult to understand is, who says which task is a "Low effort" task?? I mean... I was doing an Altcoin- Facebook (Like/share) bounty : It must be done no more than 24 hours after the post (so I keep loging in) and have a file down paste them until I have a decent amount to post on the thread not to mention that I do an original post with Images "occasionally",
I also do Signature bounty and for it I'm required to Post 15 times+  on BCT, So to me the signature bounty is lower effort than the Facebook one.

So yeah, other than being a Crypto enthusiast who spends much of his time Reading, trading, doing bounties/airdrops talking with other Crypto freaks I'm just trying to make an extra buck in this difficult Crypto season, I was not expected to find hurdles as such.

I do not want to redo whatever wrong I did again, but I need to know exactly what It was, so If anyone can tell me if it was indeed the "facebook" bounty? thats considered a giveaway?

If so maybe the crypto startups and bounty managers should not have the right to put them as a task on bitcointalk threads to begin with?

This forum is by far the most valuble for crypto, but guys dont take away our liberties to such extents, Its not like I was selling fake stuff or bullying/insulting everyone... Just helping a new crypto promote while making a little token WIN/WIN why would Bitcointalk not WIN too?


Sorry for boring or upsetting anyone. Thanks.

(PS: Please refrain from negative "nonconstructive" replies, cheers.
