Uhhh,.. have we got any ophthalmologist in here?? Seems I've got glaucoma, honestly... Did I just see this particular account being active throughout yesterday? Maybe he was given a second chance?? Who knows?
If he has, then the rules could possibly be bridged..but 'em rules ain't even followed accordingly anymore; my interest is in the phase of plagiarism.. I'm not even against him coming back, I'm only surprised to have realized the fact that MAYBE he was unbanned but he never came back in appreciation - atleast for his solicitors - or publicity either. Anyone observed much more than I did??

I have advised the OP to make one statement that he wants to get forgiveness for his mistake by not repeating the same mistake and also by banning signature on his profile. I think the admin will agree with the OP's request if in the end the OP makes statement like that, but I don't know if the OP will do it or even expect more from the admin.

That's the most likely solution the OP is considering, it's meant to be a conditional pardon so as not to cause too much mess in the other cases.

Same here. I pray that your health will get back to normal. 5 years? That's a lot of time if you think about it. We can see on his records that he is not motivated by money or any personal gains, and I also think this will take time before they reconsider you from using your old account again. You should not lose hope and provide justification as to why you wanted to use your account again, coz I think 5 years is enough already as your punishment. I hope everything's all right for you there.

However, you must understand this one topic. Make a concrete statement, chances are you can be forgiven. But I don't know how the moderator handled your case, but give it a try.

There's a chance that if you want to participate in the community after you've been banned because plagiarism, you can expect the moderators to forgive you by not repeating the same mistake again and you should be prepared for signature space ban.

Wow, half a decade is a pretty lengthy term, and in my opinion, you definitely learned your lesson and maybe deserve a second chance. Especially considering that upon reviewing your past threads, it appears that you weren't involved in any bounty campaigns at the time of your ban. This fact leads me to believe that your actions were not motivated by financial gain, but rather a lapse in judgement or a misunderstanding of the rules. Either way, I'm confident that you have grown from this experience.

What I really think is that over the past five years you have failed to promote a new account due to the difficulty of doing so. So I thought maybe you can recover the banned account.

Why create another topic? You already have the same topic, so write there and raise your old topic. Creating a bunch of topics with apologies won't change anything. Plagiarism, my friend, is a very serious offense. I understand that hope dies last, but not in this case, I think.

Plagiarism ?

Dude, what is it you're so concerned with--losing access to your Copper membership account?  That's the only thing I can think of that would make you come back two years after you'd been banned and ask for access to your old account.  Most people would just create a new account on the sly and start over, even though it's against the rules.

I'll remind you that you wrote this (in addition to a lot of other nonsense):


Judging from your tone right now, it's obvious you haven't changed one bit.  What is it you're so eager to contribute to the forum?  You can do all the reading you like without even having an account, you know.

You've been around more than  I have and I must say, even an account created for the purpose of appealing a ban is supposed to stay the course of an appeal and not participate in any other activity of the forum including posting on other threads but,  your user could be said to have violated that rule. In essence, it could be seen as ban evasion which in turn, puts out your appealing account for a ban.

I feel for you, looking out for possibilities, signature bans and even paid options to uplift ban but, its kind of difficult to open that window isn't it. In one instance, it could lead to some sentiments that would bring in corrupt practices of paying to lift ban and sentiments of having users banned with eyes fixed on payments to uplift the ban. That's the likely interpretation that might spring up any legitimate ban and unban cases so, its hardly an option to consider.

I suppose you should have stayed the course of an appeal and hope for the best but, you didn't really, did you! In some instance, you got to join in the critics on some DTs getting to bash people's accounts and circulate merits on meta

I'm tired of your endless unrational actions.
I mean its clearly to all members that you protect the abusers of that forum and give a shit if a legit account gets destroyed or not.
You claim its in the name of decentralisation but at the same time you gave the forum under a centralised power of a small group which i don't even wanna talk about anymore.
But the fact that these people use you for their manipulation so easily is just out of control.
You are punishing now high ranked members for plagiarism back from 2014.At that time noone cared about plagiarism.I mean copy paste of some important news from media to the community did everybody somewhere in the past.You would need to ban at least 3/4 of the forum if all these members would be reported since nearly everyone did something like that in the past if he participated on that forum for a longer time.

But what is most disgusting now is that you turned to get a weapon of suchmoon.Suchmoon clearly searched hard to find anything to attack that member who has over 10k posts and the only thing she could find were posts back from 2014 with some lines of plagiarism.She clearly searched for something which she could use to attack that member since which normal user would digg so deep in an account with so many posts and check posts made back in 2014 ?
Its a clear attack of suchmoon or the guy who reported that account.

Even DT members already posted that you turned to be the most strict forum on the internet.

As I see it, the only thing that makes your banned profile 'special' is a huge amount of copypasta.

Lol at Veleor's showcase of stolen material.

OP, I'd say you don't have a shot in hell of getting your account restored, since what you did wasn't just a one-time indiscretion--it was obviously a pattern with you to plagiarize other people's words.  There's no reason to think you wouldn't pull the same shit if your account got restored, or at least that you wouldn't pull some other kind of crap.  Theymos takes these case by case, but I don't see any reason for leniency here.

have a shot in hell of getting your account restored

<...> Nobody is banned strictly because of "the rules"; it's always handled case-by-case, but almost always, plagiarists deserve to be permabanned.

If you think that a ban should be ended, make your case in a new topic from a "good for the forum as a whole" perspective.

You don't get a blanket permission to post anywhere you like in Meta:
