Topic: Plagiarism unhandled for 10 days? (Read 195 times)

I have to admit that I am surprised that you who have been on the forum for so long think this way. The goal of plagiarism reports is to permanently remove such users from the forum, not just remove them from one campaign signature only to then become participants in some other campaign. Given the low entry criteria for most signature campaigns, I'm sure the user in question would find a new campaign very easily.



This is nothing new that I have not heard from some other old members of this forum, so although I think this is a wrong attitude, let everyone decide whether to ignore the problem or try to be part of its solution. You forget that it is no longer easy to progress in the ranks since the merit system existed, so anyone who tries to create a new account and plagiarize and spam again will not progress far.

User permanently banned.

Even plain copy-pasta often doesn't result in a ban as it should, and there doesn't seem to be much consistency in how these reports are handled. Anyway, I stopped caring a while ago, I just report and move on.

From my observation. I think the forum stance on plagiarism, especially those that paraphrase or spin the text, has softened. I reported some case of paraphrase sometime in February and the account hasn't been banned as of today

Following his signature, this is the campaign in question:
$ISLAND Bounty Campaign managed by Little Mouse

I agree. The campaign managers should enforce the rules of the forum and sanction those who violate them even if the moderators cannot process all the reports on time.

It looks like this user is wearing a signature campaign banner.  Why not ask the campaign manager why this user is being paid to degrade the forum?  There are so many trolls here getting paid by campaign managers, I don't understand why everyone blames the users for collecting easy money, or the forum for giving them a platform, but then lets the campaign manager continue doing business as normal when they're literally the ones paying for this plagiarism and degradation of the forum experience.  

Going after these users is pointless.  There will just be more popping up to do the same thing.  Expecting the forum to constantly clean this up is also a fool's errand, because no matter how many of these users they ban, there will always be more.  However, campaign managers could end this practice by doing their jobs and not paying users who exist for no other reason than to spam for money.  There are a lot of users on these boards who are actually real people who do real things in crypto (although that number has been dropping for a decade), yet campaigns always seem to be full of spammers...  Add that to the fact that most of the people here are advertising illegal money laundering schemes like coin mixers, and it makes you wonder why signatures haven't been removed completely.  The amount of users using their signatures to advertise their own projects is nearly nonexistent, as it's more profitable to spam some money laundering campaign then it is to actually provide a service here.

I don't think it would be a problem in my opinion that a plagiarism report isn't handled really soon as long as that forum user is banned or got out of it like a warning or pardon but next time will surely be banned not that I take sides but I find a forum user who got out of it. I would be busy if that amount of report is to be handled for moderators and admins. I think that the forum user said to plagiarize will be banned soon.

Based on the monthly updated report handling statistics, I think the mod needs a little more time to handle the increasing number of reports. In the last 3 months on average there have been 39,402 reports the mod has handled with (not counting the March-April period) so I really think there is a little delay in handling them.

But for certain cases I think there are also reports that are handled quickly including reports of plagiarism.

I found more than three plagiarism posts, but I thought it made no sense to report more since nothing was happening regarding previous reports. I thought maybe global mods or who already have permaban authority are overwhelmed with reports, but now I see that cases reported a day or two ago have been resolved positively.

I will add for quantity.

I'm not happy that I have to open a new thread on the topic of plagiarism/paraphrasing, but I would like one of the moderators/admins to explain why for 10 days no one wants to ban the user I reported for as many as three cases of plagiarism? The matter is very clearly presented in each of the reports and there is no doubt that the user in question uses plagiarism in his posts.
