I have not had time to analyse his post history. Is Ratimov habitually spamming the Russian local with Google translations of others’ articles? If so, then even with attribution, that runs roughshod over the purpose of Global Rule #27; and it also violates the Russian local forum’s rule against “stuffing”, insofar as the posts are just copy-paste jobs.
Yes, it is.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5224353.0Ratimov and
zasad@ are corrupt. They both spammed Russian local with Google translations. I doubt very much that these are 2 different people but it isn't important. Both users are involved in merit abuse to monetize their spam. Bestchange - advertising buyer from zasad@ (not only signature campaign) says:
Хотим поблагодарить zasad@ за его вклад в развитие криптовалютного сообщества.
We would like to thank zasad@ for his contribution to the development of the cryptocurrency community.
Bestchange didn't answer to my public question, how does he measure this "development"? But zasad@ fell into hysterics as it happened many times before, which is surprisingly similar to Ratimov's hysterics.
https://archive.is/noAz2Google translations for Bitcointalk is more valuable than anything else? I have no other reasonable explanations for the facts of farming 2 spammer's accounts into heroes in 1 year and for amount of merit exceeding the activity by ~4 times.
