By reading the new thread and replies of theymos about the enhance newbie restrictions I saw some post of user A copied by user B.

This newbie account or some jr.member account demoted base on its activity, oi pantura is the poster B. Mod should ban this user immediately.

Poster A - Archive


Poster B - Archive

The user imamb posted same replies in two threads which maybe considered as plagiarism too?

Seems to be a farming ring using bots to automatically post spinned content.

I hope so, it would be a waste to demotivate the users who are now busting them.

Thanks for trying I'd love to fill modlog with banned spammers

I wonder if these are related to these farmers I found here with similar formatted names: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.45434800

In that thread from those posts you quoted above  AmazingTiger & ChainFish also make appearances which belong to the farmer I linked to.



Mods are tired of having to waste time of this crap and we've got better things to be doing, but maybe someone will get around to them. Changes need to come from the top and until theymos does something about this sort of huge farming and abuse, which has become endemic, then it's pointless even bothering. When farmers like these are spotted the admins should be looking into their IPs and banning them en mass instead of us having to play cat and mouse with them banning the few we find. There will likely be dozens or even hundreds of these accounts it's pointless when they just evade the bans of the other accounts and can get paid from ICO campaigns in the process. I've suggested making users like you and krishnapramod mods so you can handle them yourself but we all know what happens to my suggestions. Until we stop these users from even being able to earn here and punishing campaigns that pay for this spam then nothing will change and in fact things will only get worse as more and more people realise the amount of money there is to be made in such an easy and lazy way.

You have your answer, as suchmoon said that no proper link provided. If I were you I would let the mods decide on what to do with this kind of user wether he/she is ban for plagiarism or being shitposter.

Since theymos changed homograph attacks back to normal characters on the English boards, the bump spammers show up on Google searches. Here's a long list:

Many copies:

Just to add something. (I've searched the name from this thread but nothing shows up, so I'll be adding it now)
It's quite a shame that this anilsaini.jaipur has just plagiarized the above comment from this topic
(I didn't quote it for the solely reason that it is quite a hassle sorry to bother you guys )

To be fair, the attribution is lacking (no link) and the copypasta is mixed with OP's own words without proper quoting. The thread needs to be trashed if not for plagiarism then for being shit.

Before you post something, try to double check it first. Clear cookies has the source below on his post.
So it wasn't plagiarized.

As an additional information:

Plagiarizing is an act of copy/pasting of a certain article without the permission of the original author or using it without a valid credit links from the owner.
