Topic: Forum moderation policy - page 30. (Read 973854 times)
What section would I post in about poker? Also wanted to make a post about coaching texas hold em low stakes. Whats the policy about that here? I wouldn't mind donating some earnings to bitcointalk.
This is a great new implementation by bitcoin organisation to implement this new rule. There is just too much cyber junk floating around in bitcoin. Now at least the bad posters will have a reason to stop.
My friend had negative experience with forum moderation policy. he began his activity on this site some months ago at the first time.And used only one off-topic chat and posted there jokes by copy-paste. So in two weeks they just banned him.
The policy to not remove anything worked when the forum was small. Now that we have thousands of posts a day, we can't afford 50% of them being junk. The moderators are now instructed to be less tolerant of low-value posts.
Some guidelines:
1. Free speech - you can say anything as long as it is relevant and presented in a calm and polite manner. Swearing, SHOUTING etc. make your post more likely to be removed.
2. No zero value posts or threads, like "SELL SELL SELL"
3. No pointless or uninteresting threads.
4. No referral code spam
5. No NSFW content
this is difficult would it be to implement a voting system for posts using the current forum software.Some guidelines:

i agree with you it is difficult would it be to implement a voting system for posts using the current forum software?No voting system would work because multiple accounts are allowed and 'brigading' would follow, leading to neverending disputes. Basic junk is handled ok presently. Signature campaigns create most of the worthless posts problem imo.

I completely satisfied with Bitcointalk.org. The concept is very good and nice. Easy to understand.
Wow it looks really less tolerance with such terms. But I think it's the right way for the site who pays really money. It's kinda your work. It would be too easy to type everything and expect some payment!
Well, for your information, it's not the forum who's paying for your posts.
It's the external websites, they're paying you to promote their website thru your signature space.

What should be the minimum number of words in a given post. Just to be sure I do not fall into the category of "zero value posts."
Quantity has nothing to do with quality. The above question about when a user is able to post images could have been answered (in a constructive manner) with 3 symbols ("Jr.") IMHO.

I did search before I ask, but I had hardtime finding the solution myself.
I'm sorry and thanks.

It is good policy l don't like those piramide looks like quotes in quotes and cannot

You might not like the pyramid quotes, but that's the best way to let others know whom you're referring or talking about.
I see some people reply to someothers without even quoting, which confuses me alot.
You dont need to know the last 20 replies in order to follow the conversation. People read the oldest posts first. I agree however that quoting makes it easier to understand which other post a post is referring to.

understand why folks do such posts.
Pictures are good but only if they are not offencive..
That is why we must have small moderation.

The post topic is "do you mine in a pool or on your own". Are you answering that question? No. Are you a sigspammer? Yes. Sigspammers will get much less tolerance shown towards their posts if they're offtopic. Your post falls into the category of "saying something random only remotely related for post count that actually doesn't forward the topic discussion at hand." Not only that but you're actually wrong as 200th will get blocks far more frequently than once per decade, and a 100PH mine will have absolutely no trouble finding blocks regularly.
Now there is a mod strict about moderating threads which promote nothing more than sig spam posts. 
I dont know why ck just deleted this post?
Was that out of topic? Irrelevant much?
Average of 200th/s will never get you a block ever in a decade.
Mining at 100 Ph/s is still a headache for large miners nowadays.
Was that out of topic? Irrelevant much?
Well it depends on the amount of hash power I own. In my current situation, only pool mining would be applicable to me if I want to get fractions of BTCitcoin but if ever happens that I own 200+ TH/s hashing power, I will choose solo mining as my sole option.

I just made a comment on this thread > https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/do-you-mine-in-a-pool-or-on-your-own-1364153 and he just deleted it for no reason!
Is this so called "free speech"? Or the power of mods to do just as anything he wants?
I want an answer
