The deterrent to the Jr. Member in bounty campaigns will greatly affect those who actually follow the rules.

Hello brothers,

It seems this forum is getting more strict with new measures which does not favor most of us.
Bitcointalk forum is for all of us and i think everybody must have their freedom,

If this will be implemented it will affect to all jr members. Just like me, that all i want is to help others and earn money as well.

Thank you for posting this because i feel relieved and say what i want to say.


Let us run through this post.

- I'm not your brother. We haven't met or had any interaction, so I'm not even your friend.

- Bitcoin Talk is becoming more strict and does not favour most new members because they are taking the piss ( to use the vernacular).

- Bitcoin Talk is not for all, it is for Bitcoin and crypto enthusiasts

- Freedom is for people who don't abuse society. If you breach the accepted standards, you get locked up or worse in most societies.

- If you want to help others, then stop posting. Destroying established structures is not 'earning' money.

- Please could you relieve yourself elsewhere.

It should be getting more strict. It's because of the Laissez-faire attitude that the forum has adopted that it has continued to decline in quality. This is a discussion forum and your freedom to post would not be effected, we're only suggesting that people should have to earn their right to be able to earn here, not just sign up with multiple accounts each just to take advantage of lazy ICO campaigns. The forum has been ruined by people who don't care at all about bitcoin other than they heard you can earn by alt coin bounties and people are flocking here in droves which gets worse as every month passes. Mix a lack of knowledge of bitcoin and crypto with a lack of English literacy and that's a recipe for disaster.

I agree, if it has to be disabled, it has to be for all members. Let us see how many are here for some real discussion.

What about changing the paying mode for signature campaigns, why should you pay a legendary or a hero shit poster more and pay a jr or member with a quality posts less amount? Why not making it based on the quality of the posts? and for the spam, unconstructive posts just pay nothing and ban the shitty poster from your future campaigns if he keeps posting shit for 2 or 3 weeks

Because the pay scales are based on the size of the signature you have and those get larger then higher the rank you have. Shitposters shouldn't be getting paid at all, but lazy campaigns don't care about anything other than their advert being spammed everywhere. Besides, what campaigns pay is out of the hands of the forum and up to the individual campaigns. If they want to pay all ranks the same they can, but this probably won't happen for obvious reasons.

There is 1 moment! Have you ever heard the saying: "Call a man 100 times a pig, he will start grunting"! The fact is, whatever message the person has published, whether it is spam or a normal post, advertising will still work! I caught my eye once, then the second, the third! And you will surely follow the link! And it works really!

i suggest to reset everthing in zero.even legendary accounts.not all legenadary accsr.are.helpful many of them arw garbeage aeticle

It would take some time for you to become a Legendary ranked member and with that amount of time i think a person can learn about something unless you are a bot. If they were throwing garbage into this forum for sure they were now tagged and given sanctions by the DTs. They were here early and that is some sort of a bonus for them.

The bonus is not a bonus, but I could become a legend by talking in a MISCELLANEOUS! And I would not have learned anything new!

MY RED TRUST LEFT BY SCUMBAGS - READ MY SIG
Let's do this before the board is beyond help.
I think even better to bring back a form of decentralised noob jail.
100 merit to post on the main boards at all and junior boards for all the rest.
Instead of wasting time reporting the never ending ocean of spam and shilling and bots... it would be better to visit the junior boards now and then and do something positive like merit any good new posters and read what they have to say.
I don't feel good reporting negative shit that will do no good anyway but it does feel good to give some merit to good posts or those making an effort to help others on the board.

The old noob jail was okay but it was too restrictive and it was a lot of hassle for the mods. This way is just like a decentralised noob jail which would encourage a higher level of posting.

stopping them having sigs is good but it will not stop bots spamming and shilling icos all over the main board. Some of these ico shilling threads are just full of zero merit accounts that just repeat what the first reply says over and over.

Looking for gigs
Instead of disabling signatures, you just have to set your own rules such as only Members and above can join, or vice versa. Considering that those Junior Members are generating income coming from Services section, in which those campaigns pay them Bitcoin. It's all about control on which ones are eligible to join signature bounties to assure quality posting. Just my two sats.

All signatures should be disabled irrespective of the rank. Let us have some meaningful discussions here then.

I think after a while there will be no such spam! Since some bounty managers create their own platforms and even forums for their campaigns! And there will already be other rules! The only question is, will the followers of managers go to their forums?

There is another option! Remove multi-accounts! My opinion, it is because of them that many shitposts are created! Because with 5-10 accounts it is impossible to write different constructive posts! with 1 account, yes, but the rest is to write posts like: A good project, Join airdrop, Good luck with you it.d

There is one more problem here. I've already seen algorithms that do posts in social networks, collect links to a file and publish the report to the forum! All you need to do is to monitor its correct operation, hundreds of campaigns or farm accounts. The application to which I watched the video, even allowed to connect dozens of different accounts of the same twitter or fb. This unfortunate tendency, because everything is already there on this forum and is actively sold Sad Often posts that go after the end of the campaign or with violations of conditions are likely to be made by such systems
Why not enter account binding to a phone number and add a captcha as a bonus to reduce the amount of spam? Of course, this will not get rid of the problem, but still, I think, will reduce the number of bots.

As theymos once said, "there's more chance of hell freezing over". Does requiring a phone number stop all the fake g-mail/facebook/twitter bots/accounts being made? Nope. There are people who's business it is to sell phone numbers just for this purpose, but the people who are going to abuse accounts here will just keep abusing them still by buying multiple sim cards or using such spam services I already mentioned, so all you're doing is just annoying all the other genuine users who don't want to give out their telephone number to be able to use a web forum. Also, there is already a captcha here but it's not very good. I wouldn't be against new users having to fill out a captcha for their first couple of posts though but again, they can easily be bypassed and are annoying for genuine users.

In many forums, spammers will simply be banned. For 1 hour first time, for 1 day second time, for 1 week third time etc.

Why it can not be done here?

Op, you should do a minor correction in title, it should be till and not til.

Coming back to your suggestion, I am in support of  this. But it should be disabled for members who failed to earn any merit or sufficient merits. Obviously admin could not start that initially because we need members in different ranks to let the forum function properly.

As soon as people start to use this ignore function, bounty managers would realize that the shitposters' posts won't show up at all in the forum, so they won't pay for them.
I don't think that matters much: as long as Google picks up on the links in their signatures, they earn from it.

Somewhere admin mentioned that he wanted to keep merits required for member level to be 1 but thought that it would be easy. I guess that applies to jr member as well.
