+1

EDIT:  Wait, does +1 count as a zero-value post?   Huh

Hey, would you mind tell me what is +1, I have no idea what it refers to, thanks.

I have a question here !
my other account. is banned for 14 days
my posts are of good quality and I had a member account .
what may be tge reason to get banned .

It usually tells you, but you need to ask over in Meta. If you're banned then all your other accounts are too and this is classed as ban evasion. You can only post in Meta once banned so create a thread over there but we people will need to know your account name to help you but I'm going to guess that it was for insubstantial posts.

Should we report a person when they are clearly admitting to ban evasion? why has his post not been removed?

i can comply the all points but the point 3 its more diff for a not native english guy like me that also uses ezquiziofrenia as a excuse for not posting too good interseting comments just the point 3 that is not very good the rest i can comply thanks.

You might want to check all the rules over at the meta sub forum its bigger and more informative these are very outdated and have only been used as a reminder rather than solid rules

You need another option too

6. No buying selling exchanging or lending unless documents have been verified and checked that are legit and hold weight in terms of legal case in future of scam. You guys need to get acts together for moderation and removing scammers from this site as theirs way too many within BCT and it needs to to  be looked into and not just passed by like it is doing.

Nope. This is a forum, not a marketplace. If you make a deal in a public forum, let the buyer beware.

Well we all need to be aware of who we are selling to and try and use Escrow as much as possible to prevent Scammers. And it isn't just the buyer that should beware...sometimes Sellers also get scammed too mate.

Is it against the rules if you post NSFW content in Off-Topic and stating in the title "NSFW"?

It's typically fine if it's properly marked, but it still has to be legal within the United States, where this forum's server is located.

I don't think so. If you point out that it is NSFW in the title then it's the viewer's decision to view it, not you forcing/misguiding them to view it.

It would be physically impossible to check everyone. It would take hundreds of people working a full 8 hour shift to verify such things and Bitcointalk doesn't earn that much income to sypport those employees. Besides, with the such vast numbers of employees, biased descisions would become a major problem.

Use your head and a reputable escrow. Doubt you'll get scammed if you do that.

There are some threads that are basically polls where you could probably get away with '+1' or something similar just to show which side of a debate you're on.  However, in general, I guess the rules are the rules.

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 about trust or another..

It is enforced quite a lot, but we can't see every post that doesn't follow the forum rules. If you see posts like that, please report them and we will take care of them. I highly doubt anyone had it out for you, as we are just enforcing the forum rules.

Well, I understand why this decision has been made. The staff gets abused enough without people sending them complains about their deleted posts.

Got a No Snitch Policy, so can't help with that.  Cheesy

Thanks for the info,

Later,

 Cool

Interesting , had not see the above, seems like it is only occasionally enforced.

Just wanted to know if someone had it out for me since it seemed so trival, that is why I wanted to have a name or id attached, if there were any more in the future.

Oh Well , no biggie, just seemed a little cowardly to zap a post without anyone knowing who they are.

Just had a +1 to a post deleted today.

You can't. Why would you want to contact this person anyway? You posted a one-word reply and it got deleted conform the forum rules.
