Topic: Help out by putting scammers on ignore - it shows others they are scammers! - page 2. (Read 2083 times)

That doesn't quite work. A lot of people ignore me, because I'm an asshole, but I've never scammed anyone

Nope.

Can the scammer in question see the list of people who currently ignores him?

No need, this is vigilante justice. An easy way to deal with a new coin being released daily.

Define scammer, and show the proof. open a thread in the scam accusations and the mods will check it out.

Already doing... 

Which is why the information on how to ignore someone is listed in the OP post, in bold (now). It's very simple to do.

I like you idea, but who visits those threads anyway?
Majority of people visiting those probably do not know how ignore button works.

I agree with this, this section of the forum is just... ugh.
You have quite a number of new altcoins released each day..

Support you on this one, +1.

A good way to deal with trashcoins, and possibly scammers, is to have a team of people who check this thread out to find out who to put on their ignore list.

When enough people have an account on ignore (not sure what the actual number is), that account's Ignore link changes colour. If we can organize a team of people who will put an account on ignore shortly after it's been reported, we can help stop the idiotic shitcoin threads (examples from just today: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-6coin-6cn-launch-in-6-hours-239201 and https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annrch-richcoin-the-coin-continue-add-value-to-your-wealth-launched-239251) and possibly give warning to others about scammers.

The idea is to visibly show everyone else that those accounts are shit by changing their Ignore links brown!

A simple start would be for people to start ignoring the examples I made above (linked again below). If you are interested, it will be helpful if you reply and express your interest. You can also use your replies to make account suggestions of your own and/or discuss why suggested accounts should be ignored, or why they should be removed from the list if they are currently on it.

The idea will be to simply look at the list below and add the people with red lines to your ignore list. If we ever want to remove anyone from this block list, their lines will turn green.

To ignore someone, click on the link to the post and then click the Ignore link under the account's username.

Note: Please don't quote this entire post as the list below will change often and it'll just get spammy.
