Reopening this thread as I couldn't think of a better place to post this.
So I got a PM from an account asking if I would reconsider a neutral trust I left them for unattributed copy/pasting in the WO thread, which would be considered plagiarism if it happened in any other thread. I am quite certain the person behind this account runs several other accounts as most of their posts are designed to extract merits from particular merit sources, which suggests they have a high level of familiarity with the forum.
I started reviewing their posts and noticed a pattern... let's see if you can also see it:
You make a solid point, and I see the logic...
Tons more posts like this... Basically at least 25% of their posts are sucking up to JJG or other merit sources.
Perhaps my neutral trust on this account was worded too harshly, but it wasn't a one-off thing for them.
15 years ago yesterday, "29/7/2025''.. Satoshi Nakamoto said: "If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry."
Today, Bitcoin is now a global currency and store of value..
I mean, is there any conceivable doubt that this is word-for-word plagiarism? For some reason this is OK in the WO thread, and it just encourages merit farming in that thread.
So anyway, I would like the opinion of others for this issue: should I delete the neutral tag as requested, or not? Keep in mind I am certain they have other accounts and the end goal is to get yet another account in another signature campaign.
