Topic: Obvious fake bumping, but there's no proof. What to do? (Read 246 times)
I reported a lot of posts like this, where users (mostly) Newbie spam thread with "great idea/project" posts just a little more meaningless words in the post. I think 99% of my reports handled with 100% accuracy. So, it is simple just to report to the administrator.
You can report it for "low quality posts" and they will get deleted.
I deal with it in four ways:
Report the individual posts for low quality posts.
Check the worst users and see what other campaigns they shit-post for.
Check for plagiarism (gets permaban)
Hassle the campaign with LARGE posts listing some of the shills and their posts with IMAGES and MEMEs
Feels fantastic, this is really important tendency, do not be so pessimistic towards the project. It is hold by an experienced team. I am confident that we can rely on these guys
The exchange is modified by a large number of projects, on the one hand it is really good, but on the other every project will have its own token in the ecosystem. What will happen to the cryptomarket.
It seems that it will be a big project with team policy, I think this is a new breakthrough that can later develop and will be a step in the crypto market.
This project is not only about removing of intermediaries, but also customer protection. This is more important for the use of cryptocurrencies for today.
Waiting for implementation. I am constant user on such platforms . Hope, that this project will affect and somehow change the existing market in general.
Blockchain is key to the next generation of marketplace and online shops. The team of developers see how our market conditions are going to change. Respect
There is no doubt that it is a really good idea and this project will have a successful fund-raising campaign. Wish everything good to developers. P.S. The design of your web-site is nasty. I have spent more than an hour watching this animation
A shill is someone who pretends to be a customer.
In my opinion it is CONSUMER FRAUD
Do you think it is ethical to fool your potential investors ?

DBX offers another good idea that can be easily implemented in the digital industry. Hope there will be no serious obstacles to this idea and its implementation.
I think that you are not right. The team is very responsible and hardworking. All the information about the project and its implementation is updated in timeIt seems that it will be a big project with team policy, I think this is a new breakthrough that can later develop and will be a step in the crypto market.

From my experience, we can't do anything if there is no solid proof. We can just report spam post. If there is solid proof that they are asking for bump thread by any external link than you can send PM to moderators. They will trash the thread. I have reported so many thread like that and got trashed. Even OP will ban. For example;
If there is no solid proof, than I bookmark the thread and report everyday. I have bookmarked lot of thread those I think they are using paid bumping. So spammer can't bump continually. If you found more than 100 spammer or bumper daily report them and send a pm to mod with details. They will check and perhaps they will trashed or lock thread.

Report the one-liners as shitposts. There is roughly zero value in most of these:
I think the idea of a mobile app has a place to live.
You can't really do anything about it, because it'll just be an allegation just as equivalent as telling satoshi is FBI.
You can witch hunt for proof, but I'll let you in on a hint: You get nothing by doing that.

What exactly can be done against this w/out concrete proof of them doing it?
1 - Find proof2 - Report said thread with said proof
3 - ? ? ?
4 - Profit

I was not able to get deleted a bounty thread with solid proof. I have posted it. Once, the bounty manager was tagged by DT but later DT turned it into neutral saying that "Affiliated with "Vilfred RoyalTeam". Vilfred RoyalTeam is actively breaking forum rules by spam bumping their thread." But both the accounts are from the same user.So, without proof, I see nothing can actually be done. To be honest, there are hundreds of ANN/bounty threads which are being bumped hugely.
I strongly believe/suspect that there are multiple "exchanges" in the Service Announcements board which pay people to bump their threads.

(This exchange also uses SMM panels to boost their following on twitter et al. Proof; http://archive.is/EP6bn, http://archive.is/GVqcL, http://archive.is/PzrmF click one of the eggs that retweeted their stuff, you'll see the accounts have since been blocked.)
And is overall just extremely shady, they have no users/traffic data but more volume than the likes of Cryptopia, but i won't go into that now.
This entire site is just a ticking bomb waiting to go off.
What exactly can be done against this w/out concrete proof of them doing it? I know that there are some rules to prevent paid bumping, but how exactly is this usually proven?
