Mining section sometimes can really be so strict as most of the people posting their really have a high knowledge of how things are currently working and basically in my own opinion they considered your post as a low quality one and does not contribute to their discussion.

As for the first one maybe their are already good details posted before you that already have answered your question.

Same goes to the second one you are asking something that may already have an answer that you should explore. (For me the second one really just make no sense)

So if you aren't gonna be posting a techy stuffs right there you just gonna stay and watch until you will be able to create a useful one (based on their standards) because if the Mods alone is responsible for that you have to meet his standards else if users have reported your post then also make sure to meet their standards.


Edit: Note that even philip which is a good contributor the mining boards have been facing some edits or even deleted post that just means that the mods their is really up on the highest standards as possible.

Frodo does a lot of work.  At times I can be  annoyed when he edits or deletes me.  But he does a lot,of,good work.  The op has a legit question as finding new gear right now is hard to do.

Mining btc mod Frodo works hard and long for bullshit crap posts.

I think at times he is too zealous but I support him as modding is not easy work.

I thought you had a legit interest in how to get newer gear.

So the first post should have stayed. The second post was a nice pleasant polite post.

Frodo has deleted more then a dozen of my pleasant nice talking with you posts.

He has edit many posts of mine. But I do post quite a bit.

If you want to get newer gear I can receive your pm and steer you towards it.
It is not easy with the rise in btc to 8400 plus.

I would not have deleted post one.

Post two I liked but many mods will delete a pleasant post.

Without a lot of content. Especially if you have a signature.

Forget about the mining section unless you  are a long term miner with a six figure investment. Every mining beginners thread I have posted there has been deleted.
Maybe your threads were not upto the standards of the board's expectations?

I think we need a mining sub-board in the beginners section, and moderation should be given to one of the mods with an interest in expanding Bitcoin Talk, rather than preserving a closed club
We don't need to. We can't create separate boards for every section that expects users to have some sort of previous knowledge. It's not that hard to just google for the answer most of the times.

The problem is that new Users who have joind Crypto lately cant see or know the Difference for what the mining section is !
There are still some Devs or Users there are posting there ANN s in there , for what i think there are 2 reasons for , 1 The dont know where to post realy , 2 they just post it there and expect they can get more miners for there coin with that.
And otheres post there Masternode mining things into the Mining section too, dont know if it would be good to get a Masternodes sections too so we have some kind of structure for mining things related and all.
And yeb i guess a mining sub board on the Beginners section would good for newbies as long they dont use it for advert there new coming Coins and things , but would be helpful !

Mistakes can happen, I assume. Until this is not too often then we have just to ignore it.
Please take it simple. Mods are human, and we all know the fact that human can make mistakes. Furthermore, moderators (or one of them) wrote that they have to work hard to solve reports, appeals, complaints, recoveries and other things from things that they did not start. They have to work hard for stupid things started by others, while those people glance at them, and enjoy their lives as well as money that they took from the forum.  Hence, sometimes when mods feel tired, they might make mistakes for such boring things like spam reports.

I think we must get used to the fact that sometimes we will have our posts removed without a reason because moderators are also humans and they can be wrong too.

Especially if reported and the member already has a lot of reports with high accuracy. Mods can not check such reports properly as tend to have a credit of trust to this reporting member.

Lately, I had the same problem with exactly two of my posts which were deleted from my own thread and both were answers to questions with 100+ letters.

I send emails but got an answer only from mods which haven't removed them. After some time I posted this same posts in this same thread and they are not removed until today.

Mistakes can happen, I assume. Until this is not too often then we have just to ignore it.

I don't think your posts are low quality but they don't add anything to discussion either, may be that's why they got deleted.

Or maybe they are mostly found on mega thread whose response would have been supposedly given by earlier responses which would now make OP's post as spamming and irrelevant.

I'm assuming that moderation in the mining section is very strict, but if that's the reason that OP and I got our posts deleted, I think it's way too strict.  But anyway, I sent phillipma1957 a PM instead and got an answer from him.

 Grin Grin Grin

you've been Frodo'd, d

I remember this one when somebody tried to advertise a fake mining company.


Yeah, moderation sometimes in the mining section goes overboard but I admire how spam free is and how no sig spammers venture there as they learn pretty fast their post won't last till the next post count.

Imagine that moderation team taking over Bitcoin Discussion  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I'm surprised your first post was deleted. While some of it may have been covered before these generally remain as you were asking a question and it wasn't really generic and spammy. Usually posts that reply to a deleted post get removed as well. That leads me to think someone may have reported the post... but who knows.

The second one did surprise me a little but could see why it was done. I actually replied to it and pointed you to another thread for information about getting started in mining, and advised to ask questions there. Mostly because I've stated the purpose for the Hardware thread is not discussion but information. I still don't see your post there as a problem, but that's just my opinion.
Thank you by the way, always nice to see people appreciate the work. Worst case if you ever need any assistance you can PM me and I'll try to help, but don't shy away from posting in the Mining section it's usually okay.

Honestly though, don't worry about a few posts being deleted here and there. It does happen all the time, and it can be either the local mods, or any mod who sees the report and responds. Sometimes there are mistakes as well.
Thanks, but I posted another posts and its was getting deleted too so I'd rather try to look for answers to my question somewhere else Sad.
If my first post was deleted due to report I have a guess  it could have a connection with the fact that someone is trying to destroy my local community  and some of my fellow countrymen has already been affected, too (reports/accusations by specially created newbie account etc).

From your first deleted message the post state that the product by Bitman would soon be introduced but you went ahead to make a reply that you have been going through the site(well that improper for a starter)

The "Product" has been selling long before that question was asked, so your theory is very wrong.



OP , I think your first post got deleted by mistake,frodocooper does an excellent job and he might got a little too excited and deleted your post among a steam of other shit posts.

Your second post however is "debatable" but if it was up to me, i would have deleted it as well.

also if you are looking for Antminers for sale, i guess the market place would be a better place for you to find what you are looking for (That could also be the reason why frodocooper deleted your post)

I rarely ever post in the mining section, but I did yesterday or the day before in response to one of philipma1957's posts.  If I didn't delete the PM I got, I'd post it here, but my post was (I thought) on-topic.  I basically said that I found solar mining fascinating and wanted phillipma1957 to post a link to a Youtube video that he had made reference to in the post to which I was responding.  But my post got deleted.

I'm assuming that moderation in the mining section is very strict, but if that's the reason that OP and I got our posts deleted, I think it's way too strict.  But anyway, I sent phillipma1957 a PM instead and got an answer from him.

OP, in general you're going to have your posts nuked from time to time, and there's nothing you can do about it.  It's just something we all have to accept.  There's no need to start threads when it happens.  And believe me, every section is different as far as strictness of moderation.

Idk about the first post but the second one can be construed as a “+1” post, which would be considered spammy under rule 1 as detailed in the pinned post on this board.

But this reason could apply to 80% of posts on bitcointalk.. There is not much post stritcly ontopic  - I agree bitcointalk should fight against spam but I think it will be better to begin with deleting obvious spam..

 
Mining board is one of the highly active moderation board in this forum. Generic replies and the replies which seems like general also use to be deleted by moderators.
I am confused because of such different enforcement of standards in different sections  Huh

From your first deleted message the post state that the product by Bitman would soon be introduced but you went ahead to make a reply that you have been going through the site(well that improper for a starter)

I am not native english speaker so I don't quite understand what does "but you went ahead to make a reply that you have been going through the site(well that improper for a starter)" mean ??

If your post is correct as said by @CryptopreneurBrainboss,
It is clear here that every post that is deleted without giving or missing.

Off-topic replies have become a big problem. From now on, I will be deleting such replies without notice, forum-wide. If your replies disappear, this is probably why.

All replies must respond to the topic's original post in some way, even if they are replying to an on-topic reply. If your reply has nothing to do with the topic post, either add some content that is relevant or create a new topic.

Please report off-topic posts as soon as you see them.

In this statement the possibility of your post colliding with this rule, so the post is deleted.

Maybe you can further distinguish which one is outside the topic and which one leads to discussion.
