Title: Does the "One thread per site ONLY" rule apply in the lending section? Post by: DarkStar_ on August 02, 2016, 01:47:53 AM I noticed today that knightkon has opened 2 lending threads in the lending section, with one being for loans over 1BTC, and one for general loans. These are the 2 threads:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1572035.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1480336.0 My question is basically the title - does the rule apply? If it doesn't, it should definitely be implemented because you will probably see people open multiple threads with different limits in hopes of getting more exposure, and hurting the people who don't want to do that.

Both threads are both with the same goal, but the short term loans and long term(big amount) should be in the belonging section.

Its the same thing, just different amounts, so it should be the same thread. Its not about short/long term either, where a 2nd thread in a different section(!) would be justified. Id report it as double. Title: Re: Does the "One thread per site ONLY" rule apply in the lending section?

I guess knighton just want to separate the borrowers with high amount borrowed versus those with the lower ones.

Post by: krunox123 on August 02, 2016, 01:44:54 PM Well, the forum/marketplace rules (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0) stated that:
Quote from: Forum Rules 30. Similar marketplace items must be listed together. Quote from: Marketplace rules and guidelines 5. Reasonably similar* items must be listed together *at moderator discretion IMO, both of the mentioned thread should be merged, because they have the same purpose and is a similar service. Well, "at moderator discretion". we could make a long discussion about it, but that will not change a thing. That is the point of this thread, though. No?Title: Re: Does the "One thread per site ONLY" rule apply in the lending section? Post by: zazarb on August 03, 2016, 12:18:35 PM I have warned him a couple day ago :

If anything OP could have just reported the thread. I have now, not sure if it will do anything. |
