That was 2015, dude.  The account buying problem was nowhere near as bad as it has since become, and account dealers didn't start getting tagged until 2016.  
I don't care what year it was when you come at me with bullshit in order to create a false defense for your past actions. This is a play out of the CH-book, and I won't let it slip. If anyone counters, I'll counter the counter: Say no to account dealers. To make matters worse, it was bought primarily for shitposting which he has been doing. No thanks.

bill gator is an account I bought on November 7th, 2015.
I think I'm having another aTriz nightmare.
Lol.  And I'm waiting for the troll posse to start with the "why isn't bill gator not tagged for buying his account?" posts.  As a preemptive answer, he apparently bought the account before account selling became a sin around here, and I'm definitely not going to give him a neg for it.  Nor am I going to remove him from my trust list for that or for the plagiarism, which he (the current owner) likely didn't do.

If the plagiarism in question really is the post from 2015, I do hope bill gator can successfully appeal this ban.  I think he's a good member here, even if others might not agree with some of his opinions or with my assessment of him.  I've had financial transactions with him where he's been trustworthy and personal conversations with him which have demonstrated his likeable personality.  Those are traits in short supply on bitcointalk, and I'd hate to see members like him get punished for something the previous owner of the account did.

Fucking slippery prick buying an account

You've obviously been unbanned already? Roll Eyes
Global Mods can hand out signature bans directly, instead of permanent bans.

So how did you get the sig ban already on your bill gator account? (It was showing there last night). What is this Post even for? You just told everyone you bought the account? How the fuck will that help you, window-licker?

Well at least no more reading Bill Thesaurus's fucking waste of life sig-camp posts. How much BTC have you earned here so far with your shitposts, eh "Bill" ? Roll Eyes

there was nothing to gain from the post
Account farming is what was gained from that post. It's the risk of buying an account: you buy it's entire history too.

However, in 2015 account sales weren't frowned upon as they are now.

I don't exactly know what the rules are around making these appeals, and as far as I can tell there isn't really much of a format to them either.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bill-gator-370611

Code:
Sorry bill gator, you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum.
Plagiarism ( 60 days ) + 2 years Sig Ban

I came back from a walk the other day to see that I was banned. I'm going to be honest with you guys, I can't imagine spending 2-months off this forum. With that being said, I would not attempt to ban evade and I hope that posting this thread is not mistaken as such. I will not send any PMs, post anywhere else and I don't plan on replying to this thread. I just want to lay it out there and allow the community to decide what's up. I understand that my sentence is lenient in comparison to what others are receiving, but allow me to make a case for my "innocence".

The post that was plagiarized was this post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11970365

Original : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11223465

and from what I can tell it was a blatant case of plagiarism. Now, let me be honest with all of you: I did not post that.

bill gator is an account I bought on November 7th, 2015. The plagiarized post occurred before I was the owner of the account. The plagiarized post was done while there was nothing in the signature and nothing to gain. My best guess is that the old owner recycled some posts from their other accounts.

Prior to purchasing bill gator, or ever making an account, I had an agreement with a couple of users to post on their accounts. This is how I found out about the forum, and Bitcoin; I was a hired writer from another forum. Once I came here, I fell in love with the technology, the community and created an account. The problem became, that I named my account after someone close to me and that was something I wanted to step away from.

I ended up contacting a "reputable" account salesman, who is a legendary member that hasn't posted in a couple of years. This was before all of the denouncing of account sales, and wasn't done with any malicious intent. My inquiry to the salesman was that I wanted an account with similar potential activity to my "handmade" account, as few posts as possible, and no trust so that I could just make a clean transition to a different account without the hassle of starting over.

If that was today, I would start over at newbie, because account sales are something the community agrees against. We even used one of the most trusted uncontroversial escrows that are still active today. This wasn't a shady back-alley deal with bad intentions; reputable people were involved and the community didn't stand against it at the time.

To wrap things up, this forum is my life, sad as that sounds - I love this community, I love Bitcoin and I want to be part of it. I did not make that post, I did not have access to bill gator at that time, there was nothing to gain from the post and there was nothing in the signature at the time of that post. I am not trying to skirt responsibility in anyway, but I want you to have all of the appropriate and relevant information to make a decision regarding this particular case.

I should have done more due diligence when I purchased the account originally, but all of the posts were so bad it seemed impossible that they would be plagiarized. If this appeal is found out of my favor, then I will see you fine people in a couple months. Hopefully, you're willing to see that my intentions are genuine and the punishment is misdirected.

I am happy to privately/publicly verify any of the information I've provided with staff if that becomes a relevant contingency.

Thank you for your time, you guys are the best - even those of you that I've bumped heads with.
