During visits, the Bitcoin Discussion board found a thread where a spammer advertising his eight referral links.

When I see a post like this, I often try to report it fast to increase my report posts count

Maybe some day we will get a badge or something for 1000, 2000, 3000 reports.

And as hatshepsut93 said, it is useless to post in a thread like that because your post will be deleted. Which will also increase your "post deleted by moderator" count.

As we can see, the post is coming from a newbie account but, we can't say the user is completely a newbie following the fact that, he or she is already familiar with some ways to earn and posting techniques of the forum but still hides under the shades of ignorance to spam the forum with referral links.
Of a truth, not that this things aren't been noticed as per posts but, the duty of reporting has been left to only but a few as it seems far too hateful to report a fellow user but this shouldn't be the case. Other users are scared because, it might just be a ranked up users account and can only hope not to be attacked by some other ranked up users.
So, reporting becomes a problem most especially, to the beginners still looking to rank up.

I can confirm anyone hadn't used the report button those had been replied to that thread since my report marked good.

Your report is marked as good if it leads to a moderator action. Everyone who reported the post gets it, regardless if they replied in the thread or not.

Everyone replied there just filling their weekly quotas for the signature campaign.

This isn't just posting of sig campaign, it's complete laziness and lack of understanding of this forum. Such posts almost always get deleted, so their sig campaign posts get deleted too. It can even bite them in the ass if they will fail to meet their weekly quota because of deleted posts.

Just want to remind the liability. Hope at least we will put minimum effort to prevent such as spams.

Agree, users should report spam and avoid engaging with it. Unless it's something malicious, then it can be good to leave a warning for newbies to not follow any links.

Signature space for rent

During visits, the Bitcoin Discussion board found a thread where a spammer advertising his eight referral links. But I was surprised when seeing a few users including Hero/Legendary replying there where they should report the thread since advertising referrals links via forum posts are prohibited according to forum rules. Even no one warning OP on their replies that promoting referral links isn't allowed on the forum. I can confirm anyone hadn't used the report button those had been replied to that thread since my report marked good.

I am creating this thread to remind our minimum liability for the forum. Everyone replied there just filling their weekly quotas for the signature campaign. So since we are earning something from the forum just by engaging with discussion, isn't their minimum liability. Can't even we spend 10 sec to help moderators keep this forum clean and usable for us?

I apologize if I hurt someone by creating this thread, it wasn't my intention. Just want to remind the liability. Hope at least we will put minimum effort to prevent such as spams.
