I'm about to pad my good reports coming from bounty section soon, I can sense the
BTC coming, and there are many bot-like posters there, but I have a question about the ban:
Anyone posting info from their bounty application (usernames, addresses, etc.) or anything alongside the lines of "joined X", "looking forward to getting X", "thanks for the opportunity", "filled out form", "signed up for X", "applied", "following / liked / retweeted X" when such data is not required or the requirement is against the forum's rules risk having their account banned. These are extremely low quality posts that generate massive amounts of spam, drowning out any legitimate discussion these threads may posses.
Is it temporary ban or permanent?
Probably entirely depends on the situation. Whether they are a serial "joined" spammer, and who is doing the banning. At the end of the day its at the global moderators/admins discretion whether its permanent or temporary.
Probably, because its not official, and also horribly formatted, and a little incomplete at the moment. I'm going away for a few weeks so will likely revisit it then. I tried to make some time before I go, but moderation is a little more important. I'll have a tonne more time when I return though.
I want to clear about one thing, copy paste own post will consider plagiarism or only spam ? I have seen few user just copy paste same post all over forum. Although I send PM to moderator , but I want to know clearly.
Note : moderators has taken action those profile are report by pm.
More than likely spam.
I've reported quite a few of these type of posts over the last 2 days - where a user writes the exact same two/three sentence reply in multiple threads - but so far none of the users (or posts) have been nuked.
Bare in mind that the users might have already been banned. We've been getting a tonne of reports for plagiarism where the user has already been banned prior to the report.
