4. No referral code (ref link) spam. [1]
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/forum-moderation-policy-20333

Don't leave your referral link in the text since you will get reported (and suspended most likely).
In the signature space, it is +/- more tolerated but cannot say 100% permitted. It depends from the moderator afaik and how he see it. I remember badbear (previous admin) don't allow it at all.

Thank you very much for your answer.

And if I write this: "The referral link can be requested in private messages", that will be ok?

Hi!

I have a question about referral links.

I want to create a useful thread about OTC-trading in "Currency exchange" board.

At the moment I am cooperating with the https://hodlhodl.com/ (after I create a thread the official account of the exchange will be able to confirm our cooperation).

The question is -- can I leave my referral link in the thread?

Thanks.

using a translator (google now makes an acceptable job) is an attempt to show some respect for the local language

The issue is that in most cases it's the opposite: people don't care how such "attempts" would look - they just want to post.
Personally I don't see any problem with p.27. As you said most people can understand English, and there're many "local" users browsing the English boards, so, if something important is appeared, they can easily inform their compatriots.

27. Using automated translation tools to post translated content in Local boards is not allowed.

This rule should be subjected to some conditions. Some times one has to post on a local board, because of the importance of the issue (like a scam). There might be no other alternative than to use a translator. Most people can understand English, but using a translator (google now makes an acceptable job) is an attempt to show some respect for the local language.

And now that Jollygood using my personal photo for his scam posts. I think that is illegal. Admins, please do something.

This is not the place to make such request, go to the reputation board and open a new thread.

Thanks for advise, but it's done month ago https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5049155.20 and still no action

But what to do if moderators ignoring that situations when couple of persons attacking some projects with huge pictures of FUD, bulling other people, using really harsh words because nobody can stop that? Admins, could you please protect your forum from troll bulling?

That is just one example of the messages from one of couple of people which bulling Minexcoin and Republia projects. Actually there is Hunterwolfie, JollyGood and YuSK

Both the size of the backlog and the number of reports coming in every day is massive. To quote what I've recently mentioned in another thread:

Quote

A report might also linger around the queue simply because there's always a crap ton of new reports coming in, to the point that I barely even remember the last time my queue went down to less than a hundred reports.

If a report wasn't marked as bad or good, it's still in the queue. Sooner or later it should be handled.

Ok. Thanks, but what to do with persons which violating people on the forum? Is it possible to do something with him? That JollyGood attacking dozen of projects without any reason, probably just because he want some merit from admins.

I've often wondered if anyone reports posts for violating rule 3. No trolling. That JollyGood is definitely an example of a troll and I've had several persistent trolls in our service threads as well. It doesn't seem to be something that is rigorously enforced maybe because the moderators have much larger spam problems to deal with.

It's not the right place for your post.
Start your own thread and describe the situation.
Perhaps the Reputation board is the best place for your content.

Thanks mate. But there already someone created topic for main fudder. but as you can see nobody from BTT admins acting to that https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5049155.20

there is a lot of evidence about him. He's bulling a lot of people on Bitcointalk, but moderators ignoring that.

When posting on the forums, what should be the topic to be up rank?

There's no such thing as "a particular topic that makes you move up the ladder (rank up) by simply participating in its discussions".
- Read the following thread: TMAN'S guide to getting merit.

Thanks for the reply. Lightlord keeps paying, with delays as usual, but he pays.

Could those rules be clarified a bit in the OP?

My understanding is that bumps would be when someone hasn’t replied in 24 hours or more but I’m not sure, and that “old bump” means someone replying to a thread when it hasn’t had any replies for a long time.

Am I wrong?

Bumps are usually just for your own thread and they're mostly only concerned with marketplace threads. As long as those posts claiming the giveaway follow the rules of that giveaway then I don't see anything wrong with that. If they're claiming multiple times within 24 hours even though the giveaway only states once per day then that's probably spam and should be addressed.

Can a moderator have a look at what we were discussing on this thread?

Rules 13 and 21 are not clear to me or to anyone on that thread. I guess those rules were implemented for the marketplace mainly but don’t necessarily have to be strictly applied on other parts of the forum.

Thanks.

They're not bumps and there's no rule about removing posts in giveaway threads. They're either just bounty hunters just trying to claim bounties and/or farm accounts in the process. People have used that giveaway thread to farm hundreds if not thousands of accounts over the years. An example here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.23917004)

I'm not sure if it's even paying anymore. Litelord doesn't care either way. Games and Rounds probably shouldn't count towards post-count/activity and that has been discussed before, but it probably doesn't matter that much anymore with the merit system as just activity alone is useless to move up ranks.
