Topic: Bitboy11 Banned (Read 1734 times)

Just want to say, this is an excellent attitude!

I wish more of the people who have been banned would develop this attitude instead of thinking they can appeal the ban just by posting "i won't do it again unban me".

Kudos to the OP.

Explain why this guy: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=993776.100

is still not banned then? First of all he bumped his thread like 10 times in the same day, second, he is just posting a bunch of stupid shit in every post he does, yes it may be the off-topic section but come on... from 18 posts 17 of them are his posts

I am sorry for your loss. You have been banned for 14 days? That's not good, you lose some money during 2 weeks.

During these 14 days, you can have a good rest, and learn how to post from good posters like quickseller. Fortunately at least they didn't ban you longer or forever.

I have a friend has a full member acc, he was banned forever because of spamming, so next time you should only make constructive posts.

Easily: you are selling your signature space as the whore selling their bodies, isn't it correct? You should post only constructive sentences and not for something else or you will be banned from an admin.

lol, you give me an impression of someone who is hired to advertise it but at the same time does not want to get a ban. The second part is great. But the first part is not really like that.

As a member of this awesome community, you do what you do as usual. You just get paid since you were wearing the signature. It should not be taken as posting for advertising. It is something you get as a reward, and should certainly NOT be your primary objective of posting. Else, you won't enjoy being a real and genuine member of community.

Don't post for the campaign, bud, post for yourself.

I think we are going in a wrong way, wear a signature ad doesn't mean that you will be banned. I think the staff check the content and quality of the post (and also the time between the posts).

It's ok...really! People will say what they want.
Although the ban took me by surprise, I have learnt from this experience. I would have thought that people would get a warning first but that simply isn't the case. Had I been warned by a Mod, I would have immediately stopped and reassessed the situation.

Anyway I'm going to enjoy my 2 week vacation now and when I come back, I won't give anyone the chance to call me a spammer again.

it is not allowed? how funny, please find me the rules of you cant post in some boards if you wear a signature

you are allowed to post in every section of this forum, just you wont be paid in some specific section, note the difference of the bolded part


Even if he was not aware, he still will have to undergo the punishment (band) and not the mod, but admin, AFAIK only admin can band here

The fact that you are so desperate to post is a sign that you are actually a spammer(bold part), if you dont intend to boost your post count, you wont be so desperate to post it is because you want to earn more with the campaign, that why you keep boosting your post and admin nuked you out

The problem is that if you have a signature ad thing you get banned really fast even for 2-3 bad posts wich is kind of stupid. It obviously depends where you post, if its in the off topic or games and rounds section sometimes you cant really post something that is bigger than 1 line of text, or auctions for example: i offer 0.05 . Yes thats 3 words but what else are you going to say

Fact is I only posted a few times in gambling as I ran out of things to contribute. As far as people stating that I was spamming the entire Marketplace board, I truly believed that my responses were genuine but I see that since I was part of a signature campaign, it appeared that I was doing it to boost my post count.

All I have to say about that is this question:
Why didn't I attempt to join a campaign two years ago?
If I am so desperate to "spam" to earn BTC, I should have done so back then.
I only joined because I figured I could collect some pocket-change while posting.

I will also state that I am the owner of an incentive site which costed over 8 BTC (today's value) to acquire and I have paid out over 20 BTC (today's value) in payments thus far.

So please, give me a break with the spammer nonsense!

If you're posting to boost posts count up, you always produce some useless craps, that's why you got banned.

Posting in gambling board is encouraged doesn't mean you are forced to post there!  

There are plenty of participants who doesn't even make a single post there and gets paid without any issues.
Since our campaign advertises a dice game, it is natural that we prefer posts there. But if you are genuinely not interested,seriously, don't. Our rules doesn't say you have to post there to get paid.

Post what you want to post and help the community. We will just pay you for wearing the sig. Participants are not expected to make that the prime motive of posting. That erodes the quality of the community. Come on, even if you make one single constructive post of great quality, you WILL get paid.

Edit: Quickseller's posts are genuinely constructive even the one liners. Length is not relevant.

Edit2: Don't make a 2 line post, a 4 line one, it actually creates a worse impression.

Just to correct you, nowhere did I ever post any "plus one" posts.







Now you are making assumptions about what I intend to do or not!
You are insinuating that I wrote that post just to fill an extra post count for the signature campaign.
How do you know that I didn't intend to contact that individual and perform a trade in the near future?

Had I intended to SPAM the forum for the signature campaign I would have probably been banned a week ago!
I disagree with every single person who has accused me of spamming.
While I don't appreciate it and am offended by it, I will accept the judgement of the powers that be and will adjust my campaign approach in the future.

I have decided that if I am reinstated, I will try to continue with the campaign as I see a way for me to do so without breaking the forum rules and I can guarantee that my posts will be extremely relevant this time.
I also won't be making a lot of posts unless it is truly warranted.

As far as gambling is concerned, I have not gambled in 2 years but miraculously, I have just found an old gambling account of mine with a lot of cash in it which I haven't touched since. 
So I will be posting in the gambling section.

Note that I am NOT asking to be unbanned. If the Mods see it fit to keep me banned for 14 days, that's fine.

I honestly wasn't aware of the forum rules concerning these matters and that's my fault.
What I would like to say is that if I made these posts but was not part of a signature campaign...nobody would even care!

To address the short posts that I write, sometimes that is all that I need to write in order to get the point across, there is no need to fluff my posts with extra garbage.

It should also be noted that my posts do add something unique to the conversation and are in no way a "plus one" or a "wow great" post.

Looking at your last few posts:
I think it is fairly safe to say that you did not read the OP in this thread very throughly. There is really not any actual content in this post. If you read the OP, you would see that the prizes are bitcoin, and although it is always nice to win money, there is really nothing unique about winning money, and I don't think it is fair to say the prizes are excellent when the OP doesn't even say how much each prize is worth. The OP also says that he will start with easy "puzzles" at first and explains what would need to be used analyzed to claim the prize, which makes your point about wishing you knew how to hack a moot point

This post literally ads nothing to the conversation. The OP was created by a newbie that created his account only weeks ago so it is unlikely that there was any kind of prior relationship with this person. As a result there is little point on congratulating someone on their "first" faucet.

I somewhat doubt that you actually have an account there. I have also noticed that you tend to make very short sentences and start a new line after each very short sentence in order to make your posts appear to be longer then they are. If you were to take out the starting of new lines then the above post becomes what is below
Your post goes from appearing to be 4 lines to actually being 2 lines

I am not sure if there is any reason to make this post. It was posted in a thread in currency exchange. From the looks of it, you don't have any actual intention to do business with this person in the immediate future and are not doing anything to warn his potential trading partners.

This is just a few examples of your recent posts and is by no means an all inclusive list

Keeping in mind, you can't see someone's posts that were deleted in their post history. None of those?

During the previous week's campaign, I didn't make any posts less than 3 lines but I took a look at your post history and saw a number of 1 and 2 line posts that accounted for your plus 100 posts.

I then followed suit.

I know that you have a lot of quality posts as well but I don't think my 2 liners were any worse than yours.

It looks like your profile is https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bitboy11-142350

Doing a quick review of your post history, it looks like your posts are made up of mostly "two liners" which is not quite as bad as a "one liner" as they are somewhat longer, but are still essentially spam

This is most likely primarily why you were banned. If post quality goes down, then the chances of a ban go up

If a question has been answered then don't answer it again. If someone gave bad information when answering a question then you can correct any bad info

You probably should not post in gambling if you are not a gambler as chances are you do not have a genuine interest in any of the topics there. If you are posting just to post to get paid then chances are the quality of your posts is going to be bad.

Nobody expects you to. If a campaign wants you to post in gambling, but you find it difficult, choose another campaign.
If you see a topic where all questions have been answered, don't post, go to another one.

Any examples of these low quality posts by people from you campaign? You can always report them if you think they are spamming with a signature.
It takes time to review posts, so it's obvious that not all posters will be banned at the same time.

I woke up this morning to see that I've been banned as well.
At first I thought that it was a conspiracy, but apparently, as it turns out, people are of the opinion that since I joined a signature campaign...I became a spammer! 

After being a member of this site for 2 years without incident and never once having joined a signature campaign until now, I find it utterly ridiculous that I could be considered as such!

Anyway, as it was pointed out to me, I have made a number of shallow or insubstantial posts recently.
While those posts were on point with and highly relevant to the topic, I must agree that I have severely diluted the quality of my posts.

Whether, I am allowed to continue my campaign or not, I don't really care at this point, as it isn't worth destroying my reputation over.
I'll just post according to what's truly relevant to me.

What do people expect anyway?

Just how many times can someone uniquely address variants of the same questions over and over again?
Or post in topics like "gambling" when I'm not a gambler?

I have read posts from the people who posted the most in my signature campaign and their post quality was far from perfect in my opinion!

But whatever...

I'm a Bitcoin Trader first...this ban won't hurt me financially at all...only my ego!

Nuff Said.
