Firstly, I’ve created an account before and was restricted from making posts without knowing what the offence was. At same time, was asked to pay for something i literally know nothing about .
If you register with an IP that is blacklisted on the forum, your account is automatically blocked and you are awarded evil points. In order to unblock your account you need to make a contribution in bitcoins, which is indicated on the contribution page. Then you will unlock your account. The alternative to this is to add your account to the forum whitelist. You can contact forum users who have the ability to add forum users to the whitelist. For example,
LoyceV.
When you register, the IP that you used when you submitted the registration form is used to calculate your evilness. The more frequently this IP or its neighbors were banned, the more evil is associated with your account. The amount of evil associated with an IP decays slowly over time, but the amount of evil associated with an account does not. You
must pay or be manually whitelisted to enable posting on one of these "banned" accounts.
Here are some stats:
| Evil | % new users |
| 0 | 53 |
| 0-1 | 35 |
| 1-10 | 4.4 |
| 10-20 | 0.80 |
| 20-50 | 2.2 |
| 50-100 | 1.3 |
| 100+ | 2.9 |
Currently each unit of evil requires a payment of 4023 satoshi. You only need to pay something if you have 1 or more, though.
One of the questions is concerning copying and pasting from a browser, new sites, social media or any source. Though, I’ve read through the rules and seen that copy paste isn’t allowed, the question now is what if one is to read through the information provided by any of the above mentioned and in such formulate your wordings, will there still be need to reference the link from which the information was gotten?
Even if you present some news in your own words, it is still better to indicate the source of the news in order for other users to understand what we are talking about. If you rewrite the news, a link to the source is mandatory. There are many cases of banning for rewriting without citing the source.
