I'd personally leave it as it is now, keep the permaban.
Plagiarism is just so easy to avoid, in almost all cases it's a deliberate action of the user and should be met with the harshest punishment possible.

Now, I do understand that there might be some cases where the user didn't intend to plagiarize and merely forgot to post a source link.
Those cases are pretty easy to spot though, thus before issuing a permaban, mods should be absolutely certain that the user's intent was to plagiarize.

Is what cryptohunter?? more like such moon that idiot is more likely to have been creating puppet accounts than me if you take time to investigate that imbecile.

The motive is always the important thing here. People who are saying there is no difference here between any copy and paste are fools that have already had their arguments torn to shreds but do not reply and run away and hide.

Let me give you a simple stupid analogy that any one even suchmoon and perhaps even the pharmacist or maybe even loyceV can follow without his tiny brain collapsing in public and running away crying or saying you will go on ignore

1. I come home my garden fence has been damaged and several panels are missing. So is my dog.
2. I report it to the police.

scenario 1

Police find it is some asshole using the planks he ripped off for himself to make wooden objects for which he is getting paid for and my dog has escaped and ran under a car:(

scenario 2.

Police say some guy ripped the planks off to lay on to the frozen lake beside your house to save your dear dog drowning since it escaped and fallen through a hole people had been fishing through. He has rescued the dog which police bring back but the guy is in hospital in a bad way.

Do you want us to apply the same punishment in both cases? Huh

let's punish them the same right...ripped my panels clean off the fence fuck the intention or result of the actions.

I would (especially as this poll is in meta ) request a public poll where people state their opinions and ground them with some reasonable case as to what the optimal action to achieve keeping net positive members will be.

There is no point counting the opinion of someone who does not clearly understand the problem if you want to reach an optimal result.

People should say their view and the justify it and make sure under scrutiny they understood what they were voting for.

Anyway the polls shows that the majority want other action that allows for financially motivated spammers removed because they are net negative and to retain net positive members even if they were lazy or made a mistake they can post just with no sigs.

I SAY REMOVE ALL SIGS FOR EVERYONE FOR EVER AND SEE WHO IS LEFT IS THE BEST IDEA.

I BET A LOT OF THESE TOP MERIT HOADERS , DT TRUST ALL WITH THEIR HIGH PAID SIGS POSTING EVERYWHERE WILL BE GONE.

I CHALLENGED THEM TO REMOVE THEIR SIGS FOR A YEAR AND I WILL DO IT TO0. TO PROVE THEY ARE NOT JUST AS BAD AS THE NOOBS THEY DERIDE FOR TRYING TO MONETISE THIS BOARD. NONE WILL DO IT

PHARMACIST WOULD RATHER BOAST AS HIS BEST ACCOMPLISHMENT HERE ON THIS BOARD IS TO BE ADDED TO A TOP PAID SIG CAMPAIGN.

@suchmoon - you are a proven moron whom makes crazy statements about "most pre merit legends are scammers" and sticks to it. Disrespectful dumb ass noob.

Also part of a gang here trying to silence people via cowardly methods you scumbag. I just love crushing your mind in public and demonstrating you are a moron over and over until your mind collapses like a rotten pumpkin and you just sit there shouting ludicrous mad comments over and over.

suchmoon is such a fucking thick turd that he just attempted to use this copy and paste bullshit to get shut me down again after the red trust crap failed 2 days ago because i could demonstrate full abuse there. This is a tool they want to keep open for any mistakes they find.

I strongly suspect this cowardly jackal created a 1 day old puppet account to report me for copy and paste and that i was claiming original source WHILST I WAS FIGHTING A REAL SCAM NOT HIDING HERE PLAYING WHACK AMOLE THINKING HE IS IMPORTANT AND TRYING TO SILENCE ANYONE WHO GOES AGAINST HIM. Sadly though that gang of dumb fucks are so retarded they can not even do that properly and fucked it up just adding power to MY ARGUMENT THAT YOU NEED TO SEE IF THE PERSON IS NET POSITIVE FIRST and what the copy and paste was about before trying to ban them.

How can you say someone is claiming the work as their own if the link to original source is listed in the same post 2nd link at the bottom? you dumb cunt suchmoron.

Even so that information was created by someone in anon coin to support my claim that dash was an instamined SCAM COIN THAT NEARLY PUSHED BITCOIN IN TO POSITION 2 AT ONE TIME and if we had not highlighted to the entire board through the largest war on the alt board ever that it was a scam and forced evan duffield to break down and offer an air drop THAT WAS AT ONE TIME WORTH BILLIONS then it could have quite easily pushed btc into number 2 spot.

THIS gang of NO LEGENDS THAT HAVE ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING EVER HERE EVEN AFTER I CHALLENGED THEM TO PRODUCE THEIR FINEST ACCOMPLISHMENTS - guess what pharmacist lists as his best accomplishment here LOL HE JOINED A HIGH PAYING SIG CAMPAIGN HAHAHAAH THIS DUMD FAILURE WANTS TO SEE ME BANNED THAT FUCKING RETARDED PATHETIC FOOL WHO SPAMS HIS SIG HERE FOR PENNIES AFTER BEING HERE YEARS??? you want to listen to the opinions of these fucking cowards and dishonest fools.

Get rid of this gang of jackals and scum. Corruption near the top is far more dangerous than some poor wretches at the bottom.... they can be dealt with quite easily.

TO SOLVE ALL MAJOR ISSUES REMOVE SIGS FOR EVERYONE. And break this gang into pieces and hurry up.

Don't even comment on my post unless you can refute with evidence what I say. The only people that want to comment without providing evidence for what they say and their opinions are either part of the gang or their dumb ass kissers hoping for some merit crumbs.

NOW BRING ME EVIDENCE WITH YOUR REBUTTAL OR FUCK OFF.
