129 users who were wearing a yobit signature and had at least 1 good report against them in the last 14 days are banned for 14 days. All yobit signatures are wiped. Signatures containing "yobit.net" are banned for 60 days.
This campaign has caused an outbreak of appalling spam that was spreading like wildfire within a mere few days and is a perfect example of what happens when campaigns don't care about the forum nor have a manager. If the signature campaign guidelines were enforced more like this with removal of signatures then the forum would be a much cleaner place. I really think we should look at alternative options for how campaigns can operate here. We can see that when we let people do what they want chaos ensues like it did with yobit and this is the second time it's happened with them, whereas campaigns that have managers who are doing their job properly like Chipmixer they actually have positive reputations amongst users and actually improve posts in my opinion.
Some people were talking about neg-trusting spammers for spamming. This is not appropriate; report the posts, and if that doesn't seem to be working well, come to Meta with specific examples and suggestions.
I think the discussion was more about potential negative feedback for people promoting scams which I still think is relevant to discuss, though whether yobit is a scam exchange or promoting ponzis is a different matter (but their current own ICO does look like a ponzi scheme):
It looks like a ponzi pretending to be an exchange and that's based on my experience with them from a couple of years ago... looks like they went in even deeper since then, IEO and other nonsense.
I never looked at them like this. Never had problems in last couple of years, I even got bitcoin shit fork from them. To be honest, I have never payed too much attention to their not provably fair dice, shady investment box or hundreds dead shitcoins. I used them only as exchange and I have never had any problems with withdrawals. I always ignored their e-mails about ICO's they hold, but today I decided to actually look at latest ICO/IEO/whatever it is called these days:

100% in 80% out with profit, 20% to yobit. And then I checked their other ICO's and they are nearly the same as this one.
Someone please look at all numbers and model and tell me that this is not ponzi.

They don't really want you to earn money in this forum. Just them. And they will even say that "This forum is not made in making money." BS. As if they are not even wearing a signature. 
. Nice cleaning of hands mates.
