LOL. You said that in jest (I think), but it's a damn good idea--there are many instances I can think of where it'd be useful to just wipe away all of certain members' posts and threads.

Regarding jerry0, I'm not sure what to think about whatever it is he's up to right now. I've never thought he's posting just to post, as so many members here do. He's always struck me as someone who's way more paranoid about crypto security than most. There's a lot to be concerned about to be sure, but even when things are explained to him logically and in great detail he still doesn't seem satisfied with the answers. What can you do about someone like that?

If he's posting all of these things in good faith....just hit the ignore button if you think it's too much.

He's a spammer. No excuse is going to help.

If you scan Jerry's posts, these words have high repetition (Nano, wallet, hardware wallet, ledger) and these are technical terms of bitcoin.
Who knows if Jerry has a sickness called ¿? (Ability to forget easily, or seasonal memory wipe).
Had he by chance mentioned anywhere that he has ill health?

Why would any spammer do that?

I can only guess, but my guess is he just wants attention.

The word "Ledger" occurs 91 times in his topic titles. This page also shows many topics were opened twice in a row, sometimes on different boards, sometimes on the same board.

He must be a big Ledger fan boy Cool

I would like to actually see any proof or picture of his ledger wallets, if I understand correctly he claims to own two of them now.
Another claim that he is US citizen, I seriously doubt that based on his previous post, and I don't care if is or not, but it makes me doubt anything he writes.

I was thinking the same thing before, but then he started sending messages to other members asking them the same questions.

I received a personal message from jerry0 in which he wrote something that might explain his situation

I have a hard time believing that someone with 3500 posts has never checked his profile where he can find his post history.

I agree! The explanation does not really make much sense. There have been some instances where he has posted identical content in multiple topics, sometimes only a few minutes apart. This suggests that he is copying and pasting the text instead of typing it out. And sometimes he even tweaks the subject title slightly, which shows that he is doing it on purpose. On top of that, he keeps asking the same question in the same thread even after getting answers from multiple people.

Either that or he has a mental health condition that is causing this behavior.

Maybe he can make jerry0's topics his browser Home Page, he'll never have to ask a question again!

I received a personal message from jerry0 in which he wrote something that might explain his situation, so although it is not appropriate to publish the content of such messages, it might be better for everyone to see his explanation. I tried to explain to him how he can get to his old topics/posts, and now it remains to be seen whether this will help him not to repeat the same questions over and over again.

Hey there. Saw you post replies to my threads. Yes i am aware i might post new threads that wast posted months or years ago. The reason is because i either forgot i post that question, or i know i posted that type of question but can't find it on google or on search forum. That is why.

Farewell, Leo. You will be missed!

Oh boy, jerry0 is back again and he created bunch on new recycled topics in Hardware wallet section.

Holy crap! I have been reading and posting in some other boards in the last couple of days and completely missed the most recent jerry0 tsunami. So he has awaken after his winter sleep.

Let me guess. I am not home now. I am in Mexico but my Ledger is in the USA. I won't have it in the next weeks and now I am wondering if a fake update can steal my coins. How does everyone update their Ledger nowadays, do you just click on the 'update now' button? What if it downloads a virus?
Is it better to use a longer or shorter USB cable with Ledger Nano?
If I uninstall an app on my Ledger, will hackers see it and take all my bitcoin?

If I counted correctly there are 12 of his topic that are floating on top, and he created bunch of silly questions again.
Most of his ''questions'' are related with ledger, but I can't even read the content and I don't think this is normal at all... maybe someone forgot to take his pills Roll Eyes

I need someone to create PURGE script in bitcointalk forum, instead of Ignore option.

If he was smart, he would put those dreadful ideas into two or three sensible topics and make his life more useful rather than using the forum like Facebook where he can post whatever comes to mind as a topic.

He caught me too off guard for short time, but no more. He has to learn to at least re-read the answers he has already got.
Mea culpa, you were right.

First I though he was a spammer, now I think maybe he has some medical condition and can't remember what was said before.

To me, it does not appear to be a medical ailment; he is simply a Bad Lair, and it is usual for lairs to repeat themselves since they quickly forget what they said earlier.

Wow, you already raised this topic for discussion. Great. And then I was already thinking about doing the same, but limited myself to only adding jerry0 to the ignore list. But the problem is that his topics are still displayed among the rest, albeit in gray. Seeing these meaningless topics annoys me a little and I want to ask if it is possible to somehow remove this? Or will I have to endure this until jerry0 passes the stage of inactivity again?

Damn, now I tend to think that he isn't human but some not very well working AI. He don't just make simple things complicated but also it seems that he forget what he already done and repeats same questions again and again. And from his posts it seems that he is preparing to buy new hardware wallet few times a year.
If he is such kind of person in real life, same like on Bitcointalk, I'm trying to imagine how difficult task for him to go to shop and buy loaf of bread or other daily food...

give it a little time, it shall pass.

Yeah I know, he has waves of activity and inactivity, but I would use this new purge script for other things as well.
Sometimes it's not enough to just semi-hide certain member or topic, I want to remove them from my field of vision Cool

Quote from: ?? on ??

I'd like to report these threads, but simply saying "Spam" probably rejected by moderator while finding older similar thread as reason to report his thread would take too much time.

I don't think this is worth reporting at all, and this is still better them him sending PM's to everyone with the same questions Grin

Just noticed I got another DM from him a few days ago, which I ended up missing. It has 2200+ characters. Cheesy

If he's just farming posts, idk why he keeps DM'ing me like he used to do before.

He PM-ed me too during the week-end.
I've answered, also in PM, trying to help a little. This way I won't be accused of shitposting or growing my post count or whatever, and still helping out a guy too terrified to do any move without triple checking everything (basically in a way all newbies should do, even though he should no longer be a newbie anymore).

I find it sad that we're discussing here his situation by making more posts than he may need as answers lately. At least this is how I feel.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

Hahahaha.... That's becoming very hilarious, anyways ..how the hell has he got some merits? Airdropped?
Being a sub standard, undervalued troll is what any reasonable OP wouldn't wanna bear as a tag. Seems this dude isn't even rightly bothered by whatever decision or action that might be taken against him; if he makes his usual tautology and no one speaks to him, not even another shitty-head poster like himself then, prolly he might as well, learn to rest.

The forum isn't for everyone; that's why alot have newbie accounts for a couple of years or two but, can't even edify the easiest means to get over it. Talk more of someone that intentionally creates a replica of the same insane bull-shit that he made earlier on.
I'm wondering what that will be called? Cus it's not plagiarism; so what? 😄

This has been discussed on and off a few times. How someone with a few higher raking accounts could create a new user and ask a question that and start a conversation with 2 or 3 other users that are are all just them talking to themselves.

Oh man, that's nothing new at all--I remember busting a number of accounts a few years ago for doing just that. They all had similar usernames and were all posting in the same threads, and the example I'm thinking of is probably just one of many alt rings this forum has had.

I understand wanting to ignore jerry0, but he's never struck me as someone who's trying to do anything malicious, and I think I said that earlier in this thread. He just seems paranoid, and if that's indeed true then I know where he's coming from. He just happens to be paranoid enough and persistent enough in asking questions that he became annoying in the HW wallet section--at least, that's how I see it.

Not like I could give him much advice anyway, but I'll follow dkbit98's advice and not feed into his nonstop queries.

Here we go again Roll Eyes

@ETFbitcoin @bitmover @joniboini @Husires and all others I didn't mention, please stop replying to all the topics and posts made by this member jerry0.
This guys repeats the same questions all the time, and you are only supporting his crazyness with your answers.
I don't want to explain why this is bad for everyone in forum, and I think you can find better ways to write your posts.
Thanks for understanding, and if you can please ignore member jerry0.

What if he is running a service to create threads so people with paid signatures to be able to reach theirs post quotas quickly and easily just posting all the same bullshit answers?

I hope I'm not giving them ideas...

If you want to shitpost and your manager allows low-quality replies, then you can shitpost all over this forum as there are hundreds of topics, you don't have to waste one post in order to create a topic that is on the same level as a hundred others.
Besides, as I pointed in my previous message with the screenshot of my conversations with him, he wasted days in which he could make the full quota for three accounts just asking me over PM on everything from the first buy of a used laptop to what problems might be with malware in a power bank, then if a jack can be tempered because he read this and that and, whatever!!!!

I don't doubt that there are some who are doing this, especially when some campaign requires posts in a certain section and they need their non-moderated topics there but the technical discussion section is just not suited for that, plus it's one of the sections where useless post do get deleted a lot of times.

Quote from: Stalker22 on October 02, 2022, 07:57:53 AM

I do not think that is such a crazy idea. Who knows? He might even have a few alt accounts of his own that he uses to answer his own questions. It is not like we haven't seen even stranger things on this forum. If there was incentive in the form of profit to be gained, then I think it is not such a crazy idea to think that someone might take advantage of it.

Yup, that tactic has been used but it wasn't about just post count but merit harvesting an this can be easily traced.
