About a day or two ago, I ran into this French gentleman who jumped into the Indian section - because his signature campaign encourages posts in local boards.

Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with that campaign requirement, but to find someone who's jumping in the local boards in the middle of a thread and post something that is completely unrelated is a little bit annoying, to say the least.

As a result, I posted a warning on his campaign thread so the CM can take a look. Here's a sc of my post below.

To which his reply was this :

WOW

The link is not enough big at the end of the post for you?
The title in bold is not enough clear for you?
Did you read the title of the thread at least ?
"How Indian Govt. cheated the whole nation (NewsFlash)"
This NEWS is a news about the Indian Govt, I think it's an important news but which doesn't need a new thread for itself. So I posted it in the thread which fits the best.

So I don't understand what's your problem with it except my signature? Huh

You advised me against commenting on indian topics because "I do not understand the Indian mentality" according to you^* and now you want me to not even post indian news? Who are you? You're not even a DT member.
I have posted 9 posts in the Indian board since May 2. Do you think it's too much?
I have received 2 merits for these posts from indian members and I have been quoted several times.
So your accusations are pure defamation.
If you don't want "strangers" in the Indian board^*, you just need to say it to me, we can talk about that but you don't need to defame me here.
I'm a hero member because of the merits I earned so I think I know what and how to post correctly. Thank you.

Edit: BTW I don't know who you are but I see you've earned 22merits in the last 120 days(2 in the indian board). FYI I've earned 21 merits from 10 different people this week. So I don't need your judgement on the quality of my posts. Thank you sir.

^*

As you can see here localbitcoins volume is steadily growing in India.

So you shouldn't think about the present, but about the future.
More information in indian languages will enhance mass adoption in my opinion.
Cryptos are not made for rich and smart people, but for everybody, including unbanked people

You do not understand the Indian mentality if you think otherwise. You should stick to your french communities.

(bold is in the original post)

As you guys can see, he's been posting somewhat off-topic replies in the Indian thread and obviously, copy-pasting stuff. He thinks I was out to defame him, honestly, I don't have time to track such shit. It was just something that came up when I was browsing the thread myself. He didn't exist for me before these couple of days and I am sure the feeling is mutual.

And then I ran into another one of his posts, take a look :

Compare that with this

Word-for-word copy paste, no quotation to show it is actually sourced from the main site.

The only part of his post where he does use quote marks - to indicate that he is copying from somewhere, is a quoted statement itself that the article pulled from CryptoKanoon twitter handle.

Here's my question,

Am I wrong here to point out that this guy is jumping in a thread with off-topic copy paste jargon just so his posts look big and mighty at first glance but in reality they're not adding any value to the discussion that's going on, disrupting it with something entirely off topic?
I mean come on! We're discussing how the Indian govt is cheating its people and out comes Mr Saint with a post about some blockchain certification course?

And then he goes on to compare my "merit" in the last 120 days vs his and how he was "merited" more number of times than I was?
I've never been in the merit game and I've voluntarily given away merit in the past through merit giveaway campaigns. Why would I go out of my way to "defame" him? And frankly, that pissed me off a bit.

If any mod sees what Mr Saint here is doing is in clear violation of the copy-paste rule of the forum, please don't ban him. Just clarify to him that what he's doing is wrong and I am not out here on a Saint-hunt.

Also, if I am wrong, do let me know. I would modify my posting behaviour as well. Just put the link to an article and copy paste in everything from there.

And finally, to answer Mr Saint on this quuestion :

That's right. I am no-one.
