I warned you yesterday about ban evasion not being kosher, you chose to ignore it and continue posting as usual.

I never requested ban evasion, I wanted to appeal on your poor moderation

I have tried to be nice and hoped you'll see and try to find a compromise but you only see what you want to see for your own selfish reasons

So BadBear decided to ban me again and extend the ban on my original account to 30 days

Forum spam consists of posts on Internet forums that contains related or unrelated advertisements, links to malicious websites, and abusive or otherwise unwanted information. Forum spam is usually posted onto message boards by automated spambots or manually with unscrupulous intentions with one idea in mind: to get the spam in front of readers who would not otherwise have anything to do with it intentionally.

should signature advertisments be banned is a complete other subject..
It's not about what spamming means, it's about what people consider it to be. In here, we consider anything nonconstructive to be spam. Sure, we could use another word for it, but we don't, and that's the way it is. The common "definition" of spam is irrelevant.

that's a constructive post  Undecided
I have answered the question asked by the OP in the thread, only thing is that it has been answered before but I have been banned while the other person which did the same thing didn't
seems like BadBear never spent some time in the off-topic, there one questions gets answered up to a dozen times

The forum is full of low quality posts motivated by the signature campaigns. IMHO it's a tad unfair to single out the OP and gang up on him.

Remove the ad signature and make 1000 posts a day if you want.
says the one with a huge ritz grand casino signature and constant one liners
I did not post for money, it was not stupid and it was not pointless
I answered the question on how to implement images in threads using BB code
my only fault is that it has been answered in a different manner previously
Actually I'm pretty sure LaudaM only just put that signature up.

Yes I do admit over 50% of my last posts (11 out of 20) are just a single sentence. I did however add the signature to earn some extra while posting. My posting days were back in late '13. I'm posting 2-3 times (estimate) less on average per month.

and so am I..

Sorry but the vast majority of my posts are quality and not one-liners. Refer to my BTCVegas thread. I'd say it has about 50 lines of text on the OP alone.

That is not "spam". When I make one-liners they are almost always at least 10 words, rather than 5 or 6. Posts that are quickly made to gain a buck are what we dislike.

Your argument is air. BadBear does not have a paid signature either. In fact the only one your argument holds a bit up against is LaudaM, but you can not use an argument against another person to excuse your actions or try and call us out.

doesn't matter what you dislike

matters what is spam

this is not

I was trying to point out the hypocrisy how my posts are allegedly spam but when the same happens on your side they aren't just because you don't have an ad
that is a prime example of hypocrisy



You are not listening to any argument anyone makes, clearly, as you have ignored the fact your posts are spam because they are being done for money. Our point is EXACTLY that you had an ad, proving that your posts weren't constructive on purpose. If someone does not have an ad, then their posts may not intentionally be nonconstructive.

no

you are not listening to me

you can't just make up a definition, writing for money isn't spamming

then journalists are spamming when writing something for the newspaper
then people writing on hubpages are spamming
people using google adsense are spamming

so everyone who writes for money is intentionally being nonconstructive?
why don't you ban everyone using a signature ad?

Many staff and members support banning signature ads, however we can't just decide to change it without theymos deciding to. Don't come complaining to me, especially when you're brushing away my arguments like an immature child. What does google adsense and hubpages have to do with signature ads? You choose to look at their content and see their ads. When you spam good threads, people are basically forced to look at your spammy posts and ads until they ignore you.

you're either acting dumb or..

all of your arguements are based on a theory that posting to earn money is spam
which is not true

the definition of spam I have posted a number of times does not include that, you can't change facts based on your opinion
you're the one acting like a child and does not want to embrace facts and definitions

and still you act dumb..

you said that posting to earn money = spam

people post to earn money on hubpages etc. that's why I wrote it and that's why it's related

people don't choose to see ads on other websites, they just do
they come for the content but they see the ads too

as I have stated and I will state it as many times as I need
posting to earn money isn't spamming

Dude all you have to do is post constructively. Don't post in a thread if you don't understand the discussion / haven't read the preceding posts, etc.

I understood the discussion, I have answered constructively and I have read the preceding posts, my only fault is that someone answered it previously
I know that now but what I have done is still not spamming and I should not have been banned for 14 days because of it
It is still a foolish mistake not spam, I could of at least been warned first..

SPAM is Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages. Low-quality messages posted just for money fall under that category. Just wait out your 14 day ban and reflect on what you did.

I did not post for money, it was not stupid and it was not pointless
I answered the question on how to implement images in threads using BB code

Actually I'm pretty sure LaudaM only just put that signature up.

It was pointless and it was annoying. Here's an example of one of your pointless posts:

Manned mars mission or asteroid mining is very hard and very expensive without moon exploitation or space elevator.

but couldn't it pay itself out?

I count only 6 words.


I'm half way to 60th place, I'm so close. I can feel it.

not plenty more here -.-


or here

So if I start being offensive toward you (not going to happen), I wouldn't get banned?

Yes.
Yet MPOE-PR was banned more of less because he/she insulted one mod..
What's up with that?

or this

When he gets back the forum will be flooded with his Insanity once again. How many days of peace are left?

Not enough days! Sad
One more day.


and why was my comment stupid and pointless?

since supernovax said it's very expensive I contrary asked wouldn't it pay itself out therefore putting a default on the expenses

even if we check our precious mod we will find this

I'm looking to hire someone to post on my behalf. This will accomplish 2 things. Keep my position as a top poster and increase the quality of my posts.

Eg. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone, as the saying goes. Thank you.

Not sure of you are being serious or not.

I'm serious, I just can't afford much and don't know how to provide limited access.
Well, you'd be paying people to post things similar to the following:
"HODL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"ch00 ch00 M0TH3RFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!"
"*picture of train blasting into space*"
"+1"
"AAAAAAAAAA BITCOIN IS DEAD THE PRICE WENT DOWN TO *insert current (triple digit) price*"

Well a primary goal would be to increase the quality of my posts, not decrease them.

What's the problem then?
