Topic: Ban Appeal RegulusHr and discussion on topic "good for the forum as a whole". - page 6. (Read 6327 times)

Well, themos gave a clear answer about the criterion for removing permaban:


So I hope you are not right and case of RegulusHr will be reviewed by admins, in accordance with the rules they have themselves determined.
If that does not happen, then that would mean that you were right and that would be a very sad day for the forum because it would mean admins didn't comply with their own rules.

cryptofrka maybe it's time to stop this humiliation and useless dialogue. The administration does not care about local boards, no one here will not read the appeal.  If your friend was needed for the administration, he would have been unbanned long ago.

And the grumpiness turns to soft racism. Nice, I wonder how much further we can go with this.

Also, I'm a farm account? My merits are undeserved?
Nope, I just can't stand bullies. Especially fake keyboard ones.

If all the merit that he, unjustly, distributed in order to farm accounts in your section got reverted this would be pretty quiet other than a few circle-jerking friends of his. Russian, Turkish, Croatian, all the same. Nepotism and circle-jerking. There is no reason to unban OP.

I don't think they're trying to compare the content of the cases, rather they're making a point about the inconsistent action (or inaction) when it comes to ban appeals.


I thought plagiarism was something that staff is handling. Do we really require you to be the back-up enforcer on this matter?

Once again, an outburst from you regarding the trivial things from my post. I will refrain from petty quarrels with you, it just ain't my cup of tea.

Bottom line - this thread is about Regulus's ban appeal. Bans were lifted (even from people you call degenerates) so we have the right to appeal and since you are not the one deciding, we will appeal until we hear from someone that is deciding.

Yet another emotional statement in the path of defending the fraud that is OP. Making Regulus anything was always a mistake. He does not need to be on the forum. If you like him, talk to him through other channels.

Gator is a degenerate account buyer; cases are not comparable.

If Theymos is the one reading through all ban appeals and making every single decision alone, then we are more of a North Korean forum than a Soviet one. However, I doubt that is the case.
And yea, on a sidenote - you are Croatian, you read Reguls's posts and should really not be calling him a "c/p person". That 'good project, I support' airdrop post he was banned for is probably hidden somewhere in our post history as well, just waiting to be dug out by this shitty script.
Plagiarism is something else. It is a tough offense which should be dealt with harshly. Copying somebody's 4-word post is hardly plagiarism (although theoretically I can understand the connection).


But they did something wrong, did they not? They are completely ignoring the thread for 5 months. They lifted the ban from Bill Gator the same day. Probably others as well.
Neither Regulus nor Branko are 'innocent', the core point of this thread was to prove that the penalty was too harsh. Whatever advice you gave us, we followed. We are really feeling stupid already - if 20 of us is trying to make a point and we are constantly being ignored, it makes you feel like sh*t. Not even a reply? That shows a lack of manners as well.
Mods/admins should be cherrypicked and their primary interest should be making this forum as equal as possible for everybody. Their role should be one of guidance and support, not one of ignorance and double standards.

I am neither yelling nor trying to pick a fight. I am just trying to provide feedback.


I already told you he's 53. He'll be dead before the mighty mods evaluate it.

Letting the steam out once in a while is good, it's just that you're directing it at the wrong people. Admins and mods are generally not part of any dramas here and they're the ones to make a decision in this case. And vice versa, the drama club members have fuck all to do with this. Besides neither Regulus nor Branko are innocent as you make it sound. I'd be happy to see both of them get a softer penalty on the account of their forum contributions but you're not gonna achieve that by yelling at staff as if they did something wrong.

Regulus has a decent appeal thread going on here - why don't you work on one for Branko as well.


I'd bet on him driving to the Moon.

@cryptofrka maybe theymos knows something we don't so he doesn't want to reply because of that or maybe he is deeply sad because someone who become merit source with larger number of smerits turned out to be "c/p-person or maybe he was busy for last 5 months building house and he will maybe reply soon. I am also interested why some accounts are unbanned and regulus is not.

Well, I really have to hand it out to you, guys. You are amazing!

We are waiting for 5 months for an answer regarding permaban (please note - not ban removal per se - just an answer that somebody looked into this case and made a decision) for one of our members.

5 months. 150 days. That is the time needed to build a house. Learn a foreign language. Become an expert in Javascript. FFS, if you drove your car for 150 days, you would reach the Moon.

Meanwhile, asslickers get their permabans removed in less than a day. It is so funny to see how all of you boast with your forum reputations and consider yourselves mighty, just and important, but when you scratch the surface it becomes so clear you are nothing more than a bunch of people incapable of normally running a forum. I know you will think 'this guy is full of shit', but it is also a part of the problem you are having - your heads are so deep in your asses so you don't see clearly anymore.

So, deal with your politics, keep fighting between you like screaming children and continue measuring your d*cks, that is what is taking most of your time anyway.

I'm done with this shit - but not that anybody from you will care. You should though, because there is more people like me here than there are people like you, and when you drive all of us away with your pettiness and double standards, you will have nothing left besides 8000 spam accounts that your script will easily handle.

It tagged one of our great members 2-3 days ago as well, Branko, a 53-year-old IT guy. For copy/pasting. A year ago, for 1 post. Forgot to put quotes, bam, permaban. He will not even try to fight it, he saw that we did not get an answer here for 5 months.

Stalin looks like a nice guy compared to this shit.

Rage out, do what you will. Less and less people even care.

My attention was just brought to this from someone I know.

I must say, after seeing some exceptions being made for bans, the support OP got from his board is kind of overwhelming.

I fail to understand how in this particular case the permaban was not undone for time served + lenghty sig bann.

The fact he was solely active in the croatian board should not be a valid reason for this and I hope that if the case was dismissed, it was for a good reason.

I hope we will get a definitive answer one this one day.

If all of those contributions discussed so far are not enough to end a ban, I wonder what contributions one person must have to have ban ended.

So far there were a few bans withdrawn, but I didn't explore why were they withdrawn. I guess for years of being contributing member of forum like RegulusHR was, or am I wrong?

It seems that admins still didn't see and review your appeal.
I'm sorry you have to wait for so long and I raise this topic for better visibility.

Signature ban is fine for me.
As I already stated, I have no problem to lose status of merit sourcer.

Can someone help to draw attention of responsible administrator on my case and this topic? It's been five months since I got a ban and I did not get any answer.

Lauda you are the most influential member of the forum who visited (wrote) on this topic, can you help?

Here is the original post from RegulusHR: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/glasanje-po-burzama-5029505

My translation is below:


Another post where RegulusHR is explaining to our local community how to make some e extra money

Whole community would support this.

I'll undo it if he's unbanned, sig. banned and removed as a merit source.

I have to admit it's really weird that RegulusHr perma ban is not removed so far, especially since the members of his community have made great efforts to show that this member deserves punishment for plagiarism as everyone else. I am not sure how much posts of RegulusHr is involved with plagiarism, maybe 2 or 3, but I see members like this whose post history is full of plagiarized posts, and they get almost instant perma ban removing.

I also see that this user is get red trust from DT (Lauda) for plagiarism, is this even something that deserve negative feedback?

One more post that shows RegulusHR's dedication to our local crypto community.

I just hope that all the posts we translated to show RegulusHR's contributions to the forum will hasten the process of ban removal...
