Was I correct to report the post, or is this filed under "unsavory, but permissible"?

You were correct. Next time, try to post evidence in the following thread instead: Plagiarism and copy/paste posts

THAT'S what I remembered seeing - a specific thread for this sort of thing. It kind of got lost in all the bellyaching about merit that's been going on lately... Roll Eyes

Actually, it falls under rule #33 Wink

I might have misunderstood the question. I thought he meant someone was reposting their own replies. Either way both against the rules.

It kind of falls under rule 12.

Quote from: mprep on July 21, 2014, 01:27:51 PM

33. Posting plagiarized content is not allowed.[e]

33. This includes both copying parts or the entirety of other users' posts or threads and copying content from external sources (e.g. other websites) and passing it as your own.

I could have sworn I read somewhere that copying a previous reply and posting it as your own is against the rules, but I didn't see (or missed) it on the OP.

For example, I reported this post yesterday: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.31880383

because I remembered seeing it before and sure enough found the original: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.31359812

Was I correct to report the post, or is this filed under "unsavory, but permissible"?

You were correct. It kind of falls under rule 12.

"12. No duplicate posting in multiple boards (except for re-posting it in the local language boards if it's translated)."

Duplicate posting on the same board or even thread just makes it worse.

If someone wants to say the same thing again they should just quote the post from the original.

Tell me, pls,can I buy the rank above (Ful member,St member)? You can in PM.

Quoted for posterity...
I bet you try passing cops on the interstate, too, dontcha?

I can not understand your message!What do you want to say?

Buying accounts although isn't prohibited in the forums but you will risk getting negative trust for your actual account and the other one that you are willing to buy. Then, you will lose your money and your accounts (become useless).

I think lynx is asking about coper membership.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.24371150 here you can find first hand informations.
By the looks of it, only coper member is available to purchase. IMO fair deal.

Hello. Dear professionals, please tell me how to be in this situation. I'm writing this post at the request of his friend, as he is forbidden to write posts on the forum. When he enters his profile on the bitcointalk forum, a message is displayed at the top in red (text) as follows:

Sorry, you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum. Low value posts (14 days).

How to be in this situation? What could be the consequences? How can I fix it? Who can I contact? May be this is a temporary lock? On e-mail not any letters about blocking account not crossed.

He should wait out his 14 day ban and improve his post quality.

Thank you very much, it's nice to have people ready to explain and help.

I did that not to confuse myself in organizing while editing my reply to the post. It's 5 lines of that having diff. long links. I hope it's okay.

I don't understand what the point of using the link shortener is if you also post the whole link as text but as far as the rules are concerned the only problem is if you redirect via an advert.

Also, you might want to consider that a lot of people will be very suspicious of link shorteners especially on a Bitcoin forum where we all have to be on guard against phishing links and malware. Personally, there's no way I would click one on this forum.

Me too Sir, I'm also very suspicious about shortened link. Maybe I didn't explained well myself about what I've posted. I'll put some examples below.

For me the "After" code is much more cleaner while editing than the "Before" code. Especially on smaller screen that sometimes I used. That's all about it Sir. Hoping I didn't confuse you

Good day Sir mprep, I just want to know if using google url shorteners is prohibited and against the rules ? Because sometimes it's very messy when posting links like facebook links specially when participating ICO bounty campaigns.

5. No link shortners that requires users to view an ad.

So as long as you don't direct via an advert you can use link shorteners. However there is another way to tidy up your posts using the BBCode.
