If your posts are useless, then you become an untrusted poster.
If you are an untrusted poster, your signature will appear untrusting too.
That is why some campaign admins do not pay posts with useless contents.

That is NOT explaining how you get paid PER post.

User trust only applies to trades here and not post content.
If it did i would be a very busy person.

Please explain exactly how you get paid PER post ?

I cannot recall ever coming accross a PPI affiliate system,
if some sites are doing this now, it will be short lived, as PPI can easily be abused,
so it would make no sense to have PPI for your affiliates

Please explain what the link is for when posting

You can ALREADY ignore users comments by adding them to your ignore list

There is one user that has a big ignore list you can copy
(someone already posted link on your thread)

but all it does is blank out the comment and ads
so you still to go through pages of blanked comments to find helpful replies
which makes it a bit pointless,
they need to add feature to just hide the ignore user completely

Problem you also see is your thread was quickly lost, as ad campaigners not want to post replies,
as they would show how pointless their replies are
(and maybe the fact you started thread in meta section, but i assume the sig ad abuse is site wide here anyway)

It's not killing Bitcointalk.org it's a give and take relationship if you ask me. We agree that most of the people here specially the new ones are here for the signature campaign, they want to be paid for their posts, they want to earn. They are being paid Bitcoins and with that, it somewhat helps promote use of Bitcoin to those who don't know the existence of Bitcoin. If they are being paid in USD then its not helping the Bitcoin community.

what they are being paid in is irrelevant

i am speaking about quality of content, over 90% of posts here are just generic dribble
it does not help anyone if any helpful or informative replies are just drowned in a swamp of dribble

can you explain how you get paid PER post ?

such tedious low paid time consuming work does not interest myself so i have had no reason to look into such details,
also if i did have any interest i would not look here for ad placement, but would place ads in much more promonent places where there would also be less competition from other affiliates running the same ads
please do explain the payment structure offered so those of us not interested in campaigns have a clearer understanding,
also how much have you actually earned from how many posts ?

I think that they are killing the forum. People are just talking complete bullshit and I am not exception. But barely anyone would be on this forum if there weren't signature campaigns.

My point exactly, i think it wont be long until bitcointalk is 100% full of ad campaigners,
which will not be good for the forum in the long run,
as people will just lose interest
and if campaigns are all PPI (sorry not looked at type as not concerned)
they will soon change to PPC only
and with no real users here, no ads will get any clicks
and if campaigns are a split of future profits, i dont see why so many think quantity is better than quality in terms of placement
it makes no sense just posting comments just to have more ads plastered somewhere where people are not clicking anyway

its better to have 1 ad (in prime location) that 100 people click,
rather than 100 ads that only 1 person clicks

Right first things first, i have nothing against someone using their signature for ads, or the forum allowing it.

BUT
i am against people just posting generic replies just for the sake of their ad campaigns.
people just posting same old crap with nothing being informative or helpful
and then these comments just drown the forum in so much dribble that helpful or informative replies cannot be found

The sites admin obviously are not concerned at the moment, as they would lose a lot of traffic if they stopped users running ad campaigns.

but do you wish that people just posting generic replies just for their ads, should be banned.
or maybe admin could charge a membership fee for users to use their signatures for ads

something does need to be done soon,
as it is really becoming a joke how many pointless replies are here
