Topic: Local Board request for Bengali - page 2. (Read 1519 times)

I doubt local moderator can nuke an user. An user can have posts in other section too. So, logically, you will not be able to nuke an user.
In addition, from the comments above, it seems you are not active in the forum, almost not at all. How will you manage if you be a local moderator?

First of all, I do remove spam periodically. But, it is difficult to keep up to the huge spam influx just by self moderation. This is one of the reason I want a board, because as a moderator I'd be able to nuke a spammer or handle spam reports at one go. For now, I'd suggest you and other sane active members of the thread to keep reporting spam, so that global mods can handle those quickly.

There are a lots of spam post. I think more than 50% posts are spam. And your mentioned thread is self moderated. Archive: https://archive.fo/rqlVg
But you have no time/Do not want to remove spam post/spammer from the topic. If you cant remove spam post/spammer from a single topic then how you will mange/someone manage too much spammer from a board. If you want to manage then want to say how it is possible? From last 3 weeks you are offline.

You are the best example as a spammer.

I am not agree with you. The topic is on: বাংলাদেশ (Bengali) but the person posting on English so how effective it can be?

I am agree with you. But Bangladeshi people posted on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bangla-1979138 too. And also they posted on many other local topics too as they are bengali.
In this case I suggest if theymos ceate a sub forum/board then it should be base on language. If it is base on Bengali Language then it will be more fit. There are a lots of user who talks in Bengali even the numbers of Bengali people out of Bangladesh are more than Bangladeshi.

Give these guys their own sub-forum. Otherwise they're turning Regional Languages (India) into a Bangladesh sub-forum. Since the shady disappearance of Benson Samuel, India sub-forum does not have any dedicated moderator. So, there is none to take care of this flood.

Said the terrorist scam shit poster who is spamming the forum.

The thread is much more clean & readable now. It is evident from the last few pages that spam is under control after the minimum merit restriction is imposed on newbies. I regularly delete spam from the thread, but if any of you still notice any, feel free to Report to moderator. Till we get our own sub, some global mod may handle those reports.

One line posts are never considered as spam activity as long as those are on-topic and add value to a discussion.

Merit abuse is here and there, not only in Bengali thread, isn't it?

Not agree with you. Indeed sub-forums are the way to remove spamming.

Agreed.
But he is not active doesn't mean there is no one active from Bangladesh. We have a lot of active users, they are not active in Bengali thread because of spamming. But whenever there will be a sub-forum, we can control the spamming and we will see some more traffics.

@Theymos
Please consider adding a subforum for Bangladeshi users. There are lots of people who want to learn about Bitcoin.

To be honest, you are also a one line poster, that are consider as a spam activity. Than how you expect sub-forum? Lot of spam on your thread, also merit abuse. Vist on Reputation you will find. Another sub-forum means make a opportunity to spam more. You should concentrate first on your self moderated post. Your activity is very less on your thread. Most of post there only 5/6 word even native language. So how you expect a decent sub-forum with them?

I'm also form Bangladesh, in this local section I saw a lot of spam and shit post. I already tried to tell the forum modarator. Bangla is a language where you can't mixed it up with other language, but some people are still mixed it. I think they don't have any respect in there native language. If you are good in English then why you try to post in English in other thread like Bitcoin discussion, meta, altcoin discussion etc. This thread created for writing in Bangla only, so why people write in English? This forum modarator don't know Bangla as well, when someone complained about it they (modarator) check the content meaning using Google translator and they didn't found any error because they mixed with Bangla and English. Google translator convert Bangla to English, other side it's already have some English so result represent good quality content with appropriate grammar also. If you think as a Bangladeshi it's totally wrong. All of the world know we are only the nation who are fight for native language. We will lose our reputation in this forum if we don't stop spamming and near future people will treat Bangladeshi people as a spammer.

This post don't have any intention to hurt anyone's feelings, but this is the real fact, we should avoid spamming. From today we will post good quality Bangla content in this thread.


I request from my heart to theymos please make a sub-forum for Bangladeshi.

Once again, I am hereby requesting theymos to look into the appeal for a sub-forum for Bangladesh. Now, the thread is having much more constructive discussion and I have added some information in the OP for newbies as well. But, discussion of multiple topics in the same thread is very difficult.

OP, your local thread is self-moderated, but it's full of spam. You had to remove all that spam before asking to create local board. Then you would have better chance to get dedicated board for Bangladesh then. Now it's unlikely that theymos will create it. And if you remove all that spam, your thread will be not active enough.
And I'm wondering, why Bangladesh have two sticked topics on Other languages and locations section?

I'm also a Bangladeshi. It will be nice if we have a sub forum. But you should know how much persons are here from Bangladesh.

Active but with lots of spam. Having lots of reply doesn't mean active.
For example, check mohiulbd's post on your Bengali thread. I'm surprised that his account is still not banned.

Why don't you create a thread by answering all the question and update it regularly? It will really be appreciated. If you don't have enough time, please send me all the questions and I will create one.
Also you can update your OP there by answering all the question.

wut?
Tell me where you from. I'm building a list of shitposters and I will find some from your country too.

I was going to suggest to make a new, self-moderated thread, but it is already self-moderated! So BitCoinDream, why don't you start by deleting all useless posts in that thread?

Let me do some math:
-On average, 2.5 posts per day in the 4 years.
-On average, 16 posts per day in the past month
-About 20 posts per day in the past week
If that's all activity coming from an entire country, it doesn't need its's own sub-forum. If you don't count the spam, you may not even reach one decent post per day.

He's only been active for a week, otherwise I'd suggest he should open a new self-moderated thread and give it a shot.

How urgent it is ? I mean people can't really wait to wish each other
&
right?
But I agree we do have a superhero in that thread and here he come

Make that guy a moderator or something which will be a ideal way to reduce spam on the section and encourage constructive posting.I have also heard rumour that these neighbouring countries like  Pakistan/Bangladesh are butt-hurt because Indians have their own sub these countries also want the same..

Look to who is talking about shit posting and spamming and using the word terrorism to describe a bunch of people is disgusting... To the ignore list forever.

Had the same remark and i was almost to post the same thing, pretty much if their "discussion" topic will continue like this, it will end up like the Vietnamese...locked. Besides, using "urgently" in the title will make things just worse.

Then, why are you here? ROFL

OP: Your local thread is a shitshow of spam and shitposts. I doubt theymos would create a sub forum so those users can spam more for their bounties and signature campaigns. Just look at those Newbies in the last page spamming to increase their post count.

All I see in the last 5 pages are one-liners and one user who is angry at users posting crap.

I am running Bengali Thread since 2014. Before implementation of merit system, it was a cesspool for account farmers. I have deleted 1200+ posts by 170+ users so far to clean up spam. But, thanks to some great contributors in the thread, it has lately turned into a great place to discuss All things Crypto in Bengali. Though I do not login everyday, I do constantly check the thread to keep it clean.

Unfortunately, community growth is now being hampered for not having our own sub-forum. People are trying to run their own buy/sell service, writing wallet & exchange reviews, discussing alts, planning meetup and a lot more. But, all these are getting cramped into a single thread. Part of community has also started to move to other forum and platforms.

Charts prepared by Rikafip is showing that we are consistently doing better than many existing local boards.




I think, the current bull run will bring in lots of people to Crypto. If we can't sort out things before that, it might be too late. For now, just a local board will do. As we grow, we may decide whether we need any sub forum under that as well.

1. Our thread is very active - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bengali-631891

2. I am getting huge no. of PM from Bengalis for various type of help.

Note: There are people asking real questions in Bengali. These legit queries have increased lately after the thread was stickied. I am getting similar questions in Bengali like 'Where to buy Bitcoin in Bangladesh?', 'Where to earn Bitcoin?', 'How start developing on top of Bitcoin?', 'How to use Bitcoin in Bangladesh?' etc. in PM as well. I cant reply all of them 24x7. Hence, I think, a sub would be great to organize legit questions as well as to control spam.
