Title: Does that deserve a ban?
Post by: Ferrytale1 on September 17, 2018, 03:53:47 PM
I would like to bring this thread to people's attention, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5030929.0
I have always considered the bias in this forum, and I would like an opinion from others does that deserve a ban, or is it mere bickering over the lower ranked members.
It could be me later, getting banned for taking information from some website. Without quoting word for word. I can't post pictures, but please go to the website (link in the thread) and then read the users post, and let's know what you think.

Well I just read the post that got archived and with everything I read I don't really think he deserves a ban for that. It was never written in the unofficial rules of bitcointalk forum that plagiarism will result to ban...Fine its okay for the post to get archived but banning now that's just abuse of power. But its all expected from a system of ranking

And I guess they would call me an alt account of the original poster, I am not.
And I can prove it if needed.
Buy injustice affects as all, and no newbie is safe from the higher ranked members, backed by the moderators.
I just went through the unofficial rules again, no me room of a ban for having similarities with some other post. Or was a plagiarism test run?

You can't do that here. It's cheating. So if you don't want it to happen to you, don't do it!
