I really hope so. Because for the past 7 days period I have on record:
August 31 - 2 posts
August 30 - 5 posts
August 29 - 3 posts
August 27 - 1 post
August 26 - 3 posts
August 25 - 3 posts, not clear if the timestamp is to be assigned to this week or the previous one.
Now, if your security team is considering this a 1 day burst poster issue, perhaps you should definetly fire your security team.
Such careless actions can easily destroy the reputation of the coin.
Otherwise please change the rules and declare that no-one is allowed more than 3 posts a day. Which would be very silly of course, in fact it would be a disaster for a number of reasons.
Perhaps, I guess that beyond the airdrop I didn't get I should now be worth also a bug bounty
August 31 - 2 posts -
5 mins interval August 30 - 5 posts -
3 - 4 mins interval 1 is 8 minutesAugust 29 - 3 posts -
6-10 minutes intervalAugust 27 - 1 post
August 26 - 3 posts
Yeah thats not burst posting
If the problem is burst posting. Then simply make a rule that if anyone do burst posting in pre-declared time (say in 30 min) it would be consider as only 1 post with minimum number of characters.
For example: If a person posts 10 posting in 30 min with total number of characters range of minimum 10 to maximum 300. Then it will be counted as 1 post of 10 characters. It will be logical and eliminate the burst posters and easy to follow.
Still my opinion is, it is the quality of post matters not the quantity.
Seriously, guys, what are we talking about? The burst posting rule is there to avoid people being idle all week long for then awaking 10 minutes before airdrop and spamming 10 threads with 10 posts with poor content just to get the airdrop. Good. That's a good thing, a good rule. But in this case I've made posts in 6 days out of seven. Is that what you'd call burst busting? Oh, yes, a few posts have been made within a few minutes interval one from each other. So what? I'm not a retard, sometimes I think fast and I write faster. So what? BTW 5-10 minutes between posts you call it fast? And finally, I don't know you guys, but some people out there have also a life and they don't spend all day posting on forums. And when you have limited time to spend posting on forum you certainly don't hang around too long wasting time. BTW, in that week I did 14-17 posts (depending on when was previous airdrop timestamp) so don't even dare to say I needed to do "burst" posts to reach my quota, since I did 50% or so more posts than necessary for this airdrop. My blacklisting is simply the consequence of a bug of the bot, which should be corrected, not just for me but for the sake of the whole project. People get rightfully pissed off if they feel they have been punished for having followed the rules, and this is bad for the future of the project. Is many cases people get trapped in conversations on bitcointalk where they end up posting endless replies in a short timeframe. Do you want to blacklist everybody? Sorry, this is not how you enlarge the adoption base of a coin. As sonulrk has suggested, if you can't properly identify burst posting then just count 2 posts in a short timeframe as one. But to count only one post every 30 minutes is nonsense - not everybody has hours to spend on forums EVERY DAY. Or you want just a community of losers, which nothing else to do rather than posting? You decide, but decide wisely. Otherwise you end up throwing out people who paradoxically has actually simply been more active and efficient than others.
I really don't get it.... it seems that I will get blacklisted for burst posting with that kind of examples....
So, I hope this story about bot considering spam and low quality the fact to post and reply in a raw about
our own technical issue os not true.
When you have technical issues and people are trying to help.... is that not normal to follow the conversation
a little closely and reply as soon a s possible.
Especially when we realize that if we wait to see the replies, we can hardly find them due to the numerous number of pages created in the thread in 1 h.
Could someone clarify what is burst, and how to be able to get qualified from asking for help, and answering in a short time frame to the posts helping?
I think my proposal has not been taken properly.
First of all, I do consider that quality of post is most important thing not the quantity.
Second, in my opinion it does not affect if you have posted 10 post in 1 week or in 5 minutes.
Third, I simply proposed that a rule to be introduce by developers prior to blacklist anyone. My proposal is: Make a pre-determined time and in this time-frame only One post of lowest number of character should be consider valid. All others posts should be consider null and void by bot. This pre-determined time may be 5 minute or 1 hour but decided by the developers and told to community in advance.
What I am seeing here is everybody going insane about 30 minutes remark. Please at least read my post properly. I have said "pre-declared time (say in 30 min)" not that it must be 30 min or so.
Hope I could make it clear this time.
