I thought of a self moderated thread but I think it could be seen as a biased channel and would not help with the actual problem.
I wanted to bring the topic here since it is very easy for moderators to see that the aggressive behavior I commented is specific to the group of users I included before and goes against basic civilized discussion.

Still appreciate the suggestion, but would love to solve it without creating a self moderated thread though Smiley

The things that you mentioned - insults, aggressive behavior, etc - are not moderated. You can report the users for actual rule violations, such as multi-posting and low-value posts, but you are also multi-posting yourself so I would suggest to read the rules first.

I think your 15% report rate shows your views of harassment do not equal those of the moderators. 

You'll have to act on this yourself.  Sad

Create a new self moderated thread, post the link in your existing thread and lock it.

You don't need the mods for this.  Smiley

Vod pretty much nailed it... a new self moderated thread is the way to go.

So far:

Code:
You have reported 28 posts with 15% accuracy.

I still wanted to bring this topic here since reporting to moderator seems not to help

Well, you seem to have your answer right there - 15%. And you haven't provided any specific examples of how those users are breaking forum rules so I doubt this thread will change anything. Vod's advice is probably the best course of action.

I have to ask:

How many times did you report their posts and how many of those reports are "good"?

Dear Bitcointalk Moderators

I contribute as community manager of the crypto project Nimiq, a project inspired by Bitcoin that uses different technologies (Merkle Tries, Mini Blockchain Scheme, NiPoPoWs) to create a compact Blockchain with nodes that can run inside of a Browser. You can to test our tech by visiting https://getsome.nimiq.com.

Nimiq was launched on June 06, 2017. Since then we have used Bitcointalk as one of the informative channels to keep Nimiq supporters updated. At the beginning of January, a group of users was created on Bitcointalk with the sole purpose of discrediting the project, spreading FUD that can be (and have been) easily proven wrong

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/nimiqshitcoin-2518322

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/sashanew-2520547
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/scamiq-2521848

Recently, these users were created with exactly the same behavior since their first post.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/scamiq2-2545890
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/matthewgpu-2545886

These users’ entire history in Bitcointalk is formed by aggressive partially racist insults, non-factual statements and outright lies. Nimiq has always being known by its supporters because of its transparency. During these users’ attempt to damage the reputation of the project, a Reddit AMA was held without any participation of these users. A serious effort was made to clear any doubts of Bitcointalk readers about the claims from these users. It is clear that they only want to spam the thread, making it impossible for anybody to participate in a normal way.

We think the behaviour of these users goes against the very purpose of Bitcointalk (or any forum). Checking our thread it is easy to see that Nimiq has always answered all questions, keeping honesty and transparency in high value. We ask for help to keep the thread civilized, allowing Bitcointalk readers to be able to read it.
