Bitcoin Forum

Where are forum rules so I can see whats against rules  ::)  :-\ Seriously... Did not know trolling was against rules?

It is, but we usually warn people before we ban them for this very reason.  :-\

I was never warned Can I see list of rules?

These are the publicly posted rules:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=20333.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=14356.0

However, we don't moderate based off of those rules to the letter. Instead, we moderate according to the spirit of those rules, so don't try playing lawyer on us. God knows we get enough of that.

Ok, I will talk to theymos and those threads say nothing about trolling or being banned, It only says "Will be removed?"

Again, those "guidelines" only set the mood for moderation on this forum. We won't play games with internet-lawyers. Your ban might not be reversed even though you weren't warned simply because I don't see many/any useful posts made by you (but I only skimmed, so I don't know for sure).

Ok, Its alright  ill just talk to theymos to unban. I understand you dont see many useful post from me, But Bitcointalk is my life...

I understand. By the way, so you don't get caught off-guard, I wanted to let you know that ban-evasion is a bannable offense, so I'll be obligated to IP-ban you if you post outside of this thread.

Ok

Theymos should add a contact form to forum.

so people can contact him without making a new account.

Btw. ohai iron  ;D

I knew this guy was going to get banned eventually.. He had thousands of no contribution posts, and only joined a month or two ago.

What was he trolling about that led to his ban?

Anything and everything? No really, I started to get sick of the threads Iron was posting. Really started to irritate me. I'm glad that the mods actually did something about it. Mods, have a beer.

Any example/link? I am not sure I ever saw one of his thread

There are many. A lot of been buried. But here:

He mostly just crashes other peoples threads.



EDIT: Seems a lot of them have been deleted because even with the search function I couldn't find them.

Wait you ban people for trolling, but you wont ban someone who straight admits to scamming hundreds, or thousands of USD/Bitcoin?
thefuck?

lol

It's different here. Scammers aren't banned as they might repay to regain their trust here. Only those who obstruct the conversations held in this forum is evicted, e.g. trolling/spamming.

Ban will not stop scammers, they can come back again and again with vpn or something.
Spammers and trolls are easy to spot and stop, but scammers are not.

Thanks



I always thought trolls were allowed here

Trolling is not a crime.

Insulting is not a crime.

In Soviet Russia ...
no, no i was going *UMPH!* to *UGH!!* say they put us in *OH_GOD_NO!1* mmental hospitalssss *FERTHELOVEOFGODNOOO!!!* i wasn't going *OHJEEZ!HAELP!* to meme! *NOTMYEYE!" 

There are many other trolls on this forum who never get banned such as chaang noi...

I will appeal this ban and leave trolling behind, as I only "Intentionally" made 2 troll post on this forum, all others were unintentional.

He was banned for a few months, but was allowed back due to good behavior.

Yes, I was banned for "Begging" Which I never did again, As I had no need to.

It's only allowed if you attend a conference and meet all of them, run a larger Bitcoin business or advertise on the forum. If you don't you'd better watch your step bucko.

Next time im flying to conference and am meeting all of you.

Nah, that wouldn't work for you. I was just givin the mods a little shit. Smoothie actually really contributes to the forum on top of being a monstrous troll, the business men only troll you if you troll them first and well - Inaba and his merry band of sock puppets are giving a product to the community that everyone wants.

You're just a slug that never even attempts to contribute. Sorry dude.

Thanks for letting me know, I will attempt to contribute once FTC's Value goes up .0005 BTC more...

You did send unsolicited begging PM's to a lot of users last time, and a few of them reported you getting you banned the first time. The second time round, your trollish posts got you this time.

I still don't understand why the mods feel the need to ban people when there's a perfectly good ignore function available, you can't protect people from their own computer illiteracy, it's like Bitcointalk is turning into facebook and we'll have news items soon enough claiming the mods need to do a better job despite their being a fucking obvious ignore button right at the profile of the user that's annoying them.

Unregistered people can't ignore so people who come here for the first time will see a forum full of trolls/scammers/etc
Great way to make them interested in Bitcoin

Meh, you can't seriously be ignoring every spammer here, can't you? I was not aware that ignores will stop unsolicited PM's either.

Have I made unsolicited PM's after my first ban?

Yeah as far as I know for most ignore functions PMs get through which I think is a daft idea, also JackJack who cares about trolls? They're harmless and sometimes actually quite funny :D, while I think scammers who don't use virus' etc. shouldn't be banned but mocked the ones who try and force their way into the computer are the same as thieves and muggers. You should be concentrating on them, not going around banning people someone said something the others didn't like and if there is no PM ignore function it would be a good idea to put one up too.

Banning people for saying mean things to each other is the kind of thing the people who claim to represent us do and it's pathetic, this is why I'll only now show up on places that have properly working block functions, people have every right to say what they like about me or someone else, doesn't mean I have to read it leaving block functions off just leaves room for all sorts of harassment.

I believe those who are not INTERESTED in bitcoins/alt currencies should be banned on this forum.

There's a separate ignore list for PMs.

I was talking about chaang. You said goat never got banned, but he did, he just came back after some time off.

After my first ban I never begged again. And I only trolled 2 times INTENTIONALLY on this forum.

So 1 and done theymos get this clown off the forum instead of him taking his ban he is evading this shouldn't be allowed!

Intentions rarely count for anything, in the end it's your actions that show who you are and affect how others perceive you.

No replies from theymos about this issue.

The ban was the response, go away, you're just nagging. It isn't doing you any favors. Chill out and come back in a couple weeks or more. And try not to act entitled to a response.

Ok...
