Re: User: Unknown01 threatens me with a forum ban for saying my opinion
Some people have too much free time. 
I've seen how guerilla marketing works. Those get benefits irl, not in the forum. Paid trolls may be in the same category.
And making an army of accounts for being convincing and for producing some sort of discussion look alike is part of the job.
So it's not necessarily about having too much time.
For example, we have already rules in place like trolling spam and similar but it's not easy to decide here.
Yes, that's what I've been also trying to say.
I've reported some shitposts in the international section and all of them were remowed. That's how reporters and moderators can make Bitcointalk a better place with lesse spam.
Well, you have to do the same in the German sub. Non-German users cannot really help there.
But after all, the most essential thing is, that people participating on Bitcointalk have at least some sort of self-awareness:
Are my posts beneficial for Bitcointalk or am I abusing Bitcointalk as a dump for my propaganda?
We should try to be people from the first category.

I think that the vast majority is okay. But, like everywhere, there will be some who think that's smarter to pee against the wind.
I'm still hoping for more self-awareness how such low-quality posters are destroying the forum, even damaging Bitcoin's reputation. Most of the are just here to earn, some are just here to troll.
People brought that up in our local section, shitposters didn't care.
We keep trying.

I stopped having such an utopic view on humans. The good thing is that bitcoin has became so famous that even the worse kind of people can have account on bitcointalk and post his .. things. Good (!) or bad (!).
Those spamming and trolling definitely don't care about the forum. Expecting that (or anything good) from them is useless, really.
