Topic: Why isn't this user banned yet? - page 3. (Read 2735 times)

He is not a scammer (AFAIK), so negative trust is defiantly not appropriate.

I do agree that he should be removed from the campaign because his posts reflect poorly on the company that he is advertising for.

This is probably a pretty strong argument to not use bots to run your campaign.

His technics are very smart. When i see first post of this thread and I check history of this guy i didn't seen any suspicious posts.. But when i read all thread I began to notice the tricks that he uses.

For me is difficult to say if this is spam.. Probably not. But if such person is useful for campaign, should decide its manager.

This is being discussed in the staff section and the mods are trying to figure out a way to deal with the signature campaigns. The general consensus is that the forum does not want signature campaigns to go away completely, however that is a possibility if the forum cannot get otherwise cleaned up. One option being considered is to allow signatures to be hidden on a per-user basis and if enough of a similar signature were to get hidden then all similar signatures would get hidden by default.

I would say that for the most part the worst signature spammers have been taken care of, and the overall browsing experience has improved from ~15 months ago, and even from ~5 months ago.

Yes, he is definitely not native. I was more talking about your point where you said that you 'would definitely not consider his posts understood to most people', though I appear to have misunderstood. How ironic.

Look on the majority of his posts on domain threads. He will be asking something along the lines of 'what makes this valuable?'. You would probably have to go through his posts a lot, but I have definitely seen him do it on multiple occasions.

Sort of. He is a human that can type vaguely related information to a thread, but also copy-pastes a good portion of the body of some of his posts from either previous posts or external websites.

Examples:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12767280 (Copied from a domain price estimator)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--1057355 (Copied from SebasianJu's post on the previous page)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12779522 (Copying text which he has already quoted once to boost his character count)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12776041 (Copied the first line of text in the topic for no reason, as the context of the post was obvious without)

I'm not going to go into any more detail with it. His copy-pasting could just be a result of not knowing when to quote, but doing both as he did in example 3 isn't acceptable.

Due to the sheer amount of participants in that campaign and the amount of posts created by some of the members of the signature campaign it would probably take weeks to count the amount of posts made over one period and check if they are all high quality.

It was a rhetoric question . However it is obvious he is posting only to earn money, this is clear.

Why are bots allowed period? If you're hired for a job as a manager shouldn't you do the job manually? Seems pretty lazy IMO for botting to be allowed

Eh, kind of. Repetitive would be the same thing over and over again. Spam encompasses both repetitiveness, uselessness, etc. His posts are definitely spam, though, basically on the level of a bot which copy and pastes phrases and matches them up, but it seems here that it's just a human typing vaguely related stuff at speed to earn money.

Repetitive = spam


or am I wrong?

Read some of his posts once again, he is clearly not a native english speaker.  Another point he doesn't ask the same question again and again, at least I didn't find so when going through his posts , maybe he just posts repetitive questions over a long range of posts so that they are not visible when going through his recent posts.
Edit: And as I have said before, he , most of the times posts understandable posts which may be considered constructive but solely for payment.
P.S: Marco is tightening his rein over the campaign, I expect some participants to be kicked in the next few pay periods.
Edit 2:https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/isnt-repeated-posts-considered-spamming-1218213 long discussion here, and personally, if its not exactly the same phrase/sentence/word I don't consider it spamming(except in cases of rewrited posts).

I've seen this user quite a lot. He mainly just hangs around the marketplace section and asks the same vague questions, sometimes even just copying the thread title into his post to meet the character quota. People have been neg trusted for adding gibberish to the ends of their posts, I would say that copying the thread title is just as bad.

If nothing else he should be removed from any campaign and neg trusted so he cannot join another one. I'm sure that he will stop posting really quickly should that be the case.

As a native English speaker, I can understand him perfectly. It's obvious that he knows what he is doing and has no intention to stop.

Sorry i post too many "....." i got it from chatting 24/7 whatsapp and other social apps.
I cant go on deleting that "....." in all my 89 posts.

But i PROMISE no to make it happen again.

If you think like i am making the post count characters more,AM SORRY my intention was never to do that.  

SORRY to anyone who feels my posts annoying filled up with "....."  

Indeed. Though I've made over 40 posts today, and I hope most people consider me to be a decently constructive poster...

Hope. It's a shame that there are people like these who make everyone who posts a lot and has a signature ad seem bad. Though I normally post in bursts.

As i know the bot counts the charathers only if the post reach to 75 or not the content of it those should be done from the op that leads the signature,at coinut our op always check and count all post manual,and those out of content are taken out by total.

The managers mostly use a bot to count posts and that is easily tricked. I think the bot only checks the post length to say good or bad.

People will always try to maximize their post and well its easy to make 50 posts daily just need some dedication and found some active topics,last week someone had around 6 accounts doing similiar posts like i like bananas,bananas i like ,banana are delicious,these kind the op that runs the signature should alwayss confirm and check the post otherwise just receive and pay others as escrow will lead into a spam bomb.

True , the best answer to these type of threads. And most people who do complain about these things, even monbux are doing so with a signature themselves. If you have any problem about these posts , report them with a valid comment and it should be fine or report them to the campaign manager, monbux being a reputable member should make the campaign managers take this seriously.

Definitely...

Anyway This topic will lead to endless discussion and this guy won't be banned from btctalk..
All what you need to do OP is to quote some of his spammy posts and send it to the admin of the compagn or report every spam to the mods here...

lock this topic if you get a response from a mod or the admin of bit-x

Posting only to be paid is allowed here so nothing will be done. Amph writes useless nonsense like that and has never been banned for it (he even publicly stated he only posts for the pay). Just give up on making these threads as the forum allows this activity. I think the only ones who get banned are the really obvious 1-5 word posters.

48 posts in 1 day, I bet that guy will not reach that number if his post's are not paid. This is what you get when one of your rules is "No minimum posts, no maximum posts, no worries! Do not spam.", He definitely missed the last 3 words

I wouldn't consider someone who posts at least one "......" in his posts just to make it closer to 75 character count, a reliable source of information : https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/starofbtc-554913 .*
Another thing, Bit-x is a huge campaign and probably the one spending a lot on promotion , hence it uses a bot and there are always ways of  getting over a bot's limits as bots can't calculate a post's quality.
@monbux, although I wouldn't consider melisande a reliable source of information at least he isn't repetitive and/or spamming. But as QS has mentioned , I would definitely not consider his posts understood to most people. It seems his primary language isn't english.
