Post by: BitMaxz on August 27, 2018, 10:26:00 PM
When patrolling I found 3 post which is copy pasted I checked one by one and found that these are posted on the same thread that we can consider it as plagiarism. What I noticed from the thread seems like all post are made by bots.

Look at this sample of 3 posts quoted below.

And please check this thread and you will notice that all posts are automatic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4962091.180

Is it allowed to use the automated tool to keep the announcement thread alive?

Edit:
The report button doesn't work it shows "The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you. " that is why I made this thread.

I don't these are bots, these are shitposters. There isn't any rule claiming not to use bots, however if these posters are paid to post, then its not allowed.

But since its copy pasted(first two posts) and the other is article spunned, they should be banned.

Also, the thread is thrashed.
AFAIK they aren't bots - the OP was incentivizing posting in the thread via airdrop. Trashed the thread and temp banned OP.
Beat you by 45 seconds.  :P
