You are giving up on your legend account for that??
I would not give up so fast.

Well, i tried, no one except you is keen to give me the benefit of the doubt or lessen my punishment.

Why did you even copy and past that shit you could have written it yourself in 2 seconds.

I explained it on a previous post, i was in a hurry and super stress, it was hours before going to my honeymoon trip and not everything was planned/organised/booked

A legend account of this age deserves much more consideration than these shit bots and pure sig pumping scammers
Have you ever copy and paste before?

Indeed, and no, i don't believe i have copied in pasted in the past.

I think it is harsh. This account should only be locked down until mods hear from theymos himself. Legend accounts should have full context of their entire history here. If you have done some good for this forum in 4 years one stupid error like this should be punished perhaps by rank reduction down to senior or perhaps no banners for 2 years. Or something.

I think so too

Theymos has clearly said copy and paste is not a perm ban in all cases. We are not robots here. Depends on the context.

Theymos also said this:

Plagiarism: If you copy some text from somewhere, then you should have a good reason for it, and you must link to the source. Doing otherwise is plagiarism. Changing a few words around doesn't matter. If we find that you plagiarized, then you absolutely will be permanently banned, even if we find it years after you did it.

Theymos wrote this sometime after my mistake, i couldn't be aware of his message/post when i did my "plagiarism"

Also, to be fair, (wrote it in a previous message on this thread), i never really read the rules (unofficial + written after i signed up, and located in a part of forum i alsmost never go), i was just on the forum and behaving to what i though was normal behavior.

This guy must have been suffering some kind of breakdown to copy and paste that pile of shit. It is garbage anyone could spew in 3 seconds or less. He must be kicking himself potentially losing a legend account over that. I bet he would never do it again if was reduced to snr. Even reduced to full but to lose your account fully is crushing. All your posts gone your entire history deleted.

Indeed it was a very stressful time, no i won't do it. Yes i feel stupid.

I've never heard of this legend and has a very low post count but still he may have done some important work here in the past.

I don't post much in the english part of it. But i have 1236 posts
I do have a few quality posts (highlighted in previous messages), but i mainly used the forum to read, to exchange with french peers, to give advice and tips based on my experience.

Because it is clearly for financial reasons.

Funny enough i didn't do this campaign for the money, I have been a client/user/customer of paymium since i started BTC (december 2013).
They are french like me (cocoricooo !), and i wanted to be part of their new adventure. It is important to states that paymium is one of the first exchange in the world, they started in May 2010.
The 25euros or so that i would have won are not a big sum of money when i look at my real life salary and the saving i have since to being in the crypto sphere since 2013. I also have written in previous messages that i would be happy to forfeit the proceeds of this campaign to a charity.

If i were him i would not give up so soon. There is some hope I think of a slap on the wrist and a kick up the ass but full termination is not something to just accept without doing your best to avoid.

To get the closure i need (perma ban or not, can i have an alt or not), i would donate $50 (us$) to Theymos, or to the forum or to any approved charity if Theymos comes here, and give his final answer on my case.
