Don't think it is in the spirit of this board.

It's exactly in the spirit of bitcointalk. I don't care how poor or desperate these plagiarists are, and there's no way of knowing that for sure anyway. It's just an assumption. The indisputable fact is that there are too many newbies coming here to make money by shitposting, and a lot of them are getting busted for stealing other people's work. I have no sympathy for that.

I have to say the real bad copy and pasters will never even bother coming here to complain since they know it is completely futile.

Good, Meta would be a lot cleaner if that were to happen. But it hasn't happened yet, which is why the Plagiarism Bingo game is such jolly good fun. They lie, they give excuses, and they beg--all of that on top of the original offense of stealing content. My conscience doesn't bother me about taking the piss out of those kinds of people.

I would not advise making statements based upon your moral compass nor your critical decision making capabilities.

Maybe they are just pretending to be desperate and are secret billionaires begging for airdrop and sig crumbs. I mean can you provide alternative explanation for newish accounts begging and pleading to keep their full or snr member accounts?

There are 2 kinds of assumptions

1. bank alarm going off - guy running out with gun and swag bag and mask - - assuming he could have just robbed the bank?

2. guy posting a guide saying I have compiled these guides from other guides I found on the net - - assuming he is claiming the work as his own..

You see there are sensible and reasonable assumptions and completely clueless crazy assumptions. Not all assumptions are equal if you want to make optimal sense of the world.

Also I notice you have a very well paid sig on. Would you care to remove it to prove that you are not here for financial reasons at all??

I will remove my sig so long as You, Loyce, and all the others earing nice bucks from their sigs do so? What do you guys say. Let's all not have any sigs for a year? I mean we are not all here just motivated by money are we? we are real enthusiasts.

I will do it if you guys all do the same. Let us set a good example to those greedy 3rd world desperate people here to earn bucks and not here for the pure brilliance of being part of the decentralised trustless movement here.

LET'S BE CLEAR I am saying the real spammers (the worst kind) will not even bother to come here and appeal. I am talking those who have made the odd mistake generally and are being ridiculed is not my idea of being constructive. Sure most deserve to be banned according to the rules fair enough... but I would not say making a game to ridicule them is at all in the spirit of this forum.

Start finding the real people who have scammed or look like real scammers and turn your attention to painting them in the light they should be not picking on easy targets.

I don't mean to be rude to you specifically but I find you to be searching down all your pals who are disagreeing with me and giving merit and support to them when they are clearly wrong and making crazy statements. Please find something sensible to do or else make a sensible and credible argument of your own instead of just meriting nonsense and agreeing with quite mad statements.
