Actually it was just a single report (I think), You have to read the rules first to understand.

You can't just open a thread about "news" and keep posting unlimited links. Obviously this is prone to abuse and thus a rule was made against it. My suggestion would be to start merging posts. Your whole thread needs to be cleaned as you've broken this rule several times. //I was not aware of the other thread either.


As for the other post, I had not noticed it (I was using my smartphone). Just report obvious trolling using the "Report to moderator " feature.

Certainly I would not wish to see my thread decimated, and the mere thought of a ban, no matter its duration, sends me into a funk. Could you, perchance, if you don't terribly mind, share your thoughts as to how I may resolve this conundrum, without finding myself on the wrong side of the [by]law?

Clearly, lumping multiple unrelated news articles into the same post is a forced, clumsy solution -- if for no reason other than failing to clue in the reader regarding new content.

Perhaps a more elegant approach would be to alter the posts, somehow?  With each one already being new, pertinent, unique, and containing a nontrivial, enlightening payload, what other qualities must each posses to reduce its ...'bumpishness'?
Or would it be more appropriate to simply start a new topic, as more 'bearish news' come to light?

Do you have a thread or a post that clarifies this rule somewhere?

Clarification from staff.

The "Bump" rule is actually a marketplace rule as it is posted in a thread in marketplace titled "marketplace rules and guidelines" so I would not think it would apply to threads in other, non-marketplace sections.
No. It might have been a marketplace only rule in the past, but this applies to all section without exception.
Do you have a thread or a post that clarifies this rule somewhere? The only place I have ever seen this rule posted is in the above referenced thread. Even the unofficial list of official rules references that same thread (with a footnote of [2] )

I invite you to check out The Bullish News Thread (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-bullish-bitcoin-media-center-the-only-bullish-bitcoin-news-thread-1166428), and suggest you apply to it the same rigor.

That does not fall under my 'jurisdiction' and thus I can not do anything about it. That thread will most likely get cleaned and yours will be too. Actually repeatedly breaking that rule tends to result in a (shorter) ban. This is the first time that I've seen that thread.

Update: No reference from someone else yet. However, keep in mind that there is also this:

lets stop the time, to make it harder I only use one hand, go:

37 seconds for one report. If you are a regular reader of said thread it should not be an issue to report those posts that bump the thread < 24 hours.

I understand that you feel singled out, but mods are bussy and you cant expect them to read the entire board. If you dont report posts, no one else might.

Did you add any of your own text, or did you just post a quote?

A quote alone might be considered as not contributing anything to the conversation.

The mentioned post was deleted from my "Bearish News Thread," started as a sister thread to The Bullish News Thread.
Roughly 80% of the posts in The Bullish News Thread are simply .png screen captures of articles.
To my knowledge, none of those are ever deleted.
*Also unsure as to what, exactly, inviting me to "go fuck a duck" contributes to the conversation.
