Hello,

I would like to create a new local board (for a language that still has no local board). Can anyone tell me how to proceed? (I might have missed the guidelines for that, if any were in the original post, and I'm sorry for that). Thank you.

They will only be created if there's demmand for one. Create a thread in Meta if you would like to further discuss your proposal.

Thx for the reply, okay then I might create a topic in Meta to discuss that. So, there will be demand if users replied on the potentiel thread I'll create and said "Yes, it would be a good idea" or are there some other measures to quantifiy demand?

Well, the first option would be to create a thread in Other languages/locations (if there isn't one there already?): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=11.0

If it gets popular then maybe then would be the time to discuss creating a specific sub board for it but if it's not lively then there's probably not much need for it.

This would not be of help because scammers simply would use a random porn image from the net to mask their malware.

ok. however, we still have a certain prevention from those malware, by not allowing the file to be downloaded directly, so i can take a look if they are malware or not.

Embedding would allow to implement the malware directly into the thread, loading automatically while having a link gives you the decision to download it.

i would suggest to allow embedded NSFW images in thread titled with [NSFW] at the beginning, because some of the link to NSFW stuff could be a scam, by allowing those embedded images, they will have less reason to scam others. Huh

For how long can you be banned in btctalk?

Forever of course. Though not from the start mostly. It starts slow but for serious caused troubles you can get instantly banned for life.

It really shouldn't, else this will open up potential problems (e.g. groups attacking specific moderator for the deletion of their posts).

There should be accountability. If someone gets the banhammer on Poloniex, for example, you know which mod gave it. Do groups attack mods because of it? No, and they would know better than to do so without warrant, unless they all wish to get banned.

The mods are already accountable to theymos since he often reviews our performance at the end of a month (or so he said).

I disagree. You would just increase the difficulty of moderating here.

Only certain staff of a certain rank can ban, so it is irrelevant.

Mods sometimes get attacked here for practically no reason (including myself).

Anyhow, I do not feel that this is the appropriate place to discuss this. If you want to discuss it with other members, I suggest opening a new thread in meta.

When a message is deleted, it should say which mod actioned it.

For a recent deletion, I know that it isn't Blitz, who is the mod for that forum, so it could be any of the supermods or admins. Therefore, to whom does one direct the issue?

When we are talking about posts made by people above the rank newbie, the contact order is: board moderators -> global moderators.

At least, now I know it is okay to have more than one account.

Please don't read the rule about having multiple accounts in isolation.

If you spread signature spam across these accounts, you will still get banned.
You should also read up about ban evasion in this forum.

While I like the thought behind it I wonder what will qualify as "reputable".

Well that's why we should consider removing the rule.

now we have something quite good to kill the illegal account sales of services, while the DS is flooded with torrent sales. it might be just me but exp showed "benefit of doubt" doesnt work when it comes to money... just imho
