Bitcoin Forum

So a user is clogging the digital goods board with several almost identical posts that he bumps around the exact same time.

Here's a screencap:

Edit: seems like it isn't

I don't think it's a problem because technically he is selling more than one domain so he can open how many threads that he wants (this is my interpretation).
However, did you report some of his topics to the staff ?

I believe theymos posted a few months ago that titles full of annoying characters (similar to his) was frowned upon, and abuse of that would lead to thread removals, or warnings.

I think it's kind of ridiculous that this guy has seven threads, each selling a single domain. That clogs up a good portion of a page of threads. I'd like to see him move them to a single thread, like most other domain sellers on this site seem to do.

I agree. It looks like spam if you ask me! There is no reason not to just have 1 thread and list each of the domains.

I've expressed my opinion that domain sellers should bundle their sales in a single post in order to reduce clutter. It's a digital good easy to achieve and unless done sporadically not worth advertising each domain on it's own.

The digital goods section has become garbage with plenty of forum accounts being listed for sale.

There must be different sections within digital goods to make things more easy.

Right now if you list something for sale your thread will get pushed back to page 2 or 3 within 12 hours.

I think one bump is allowed in 24 hours' time to get the thread in front page instantly.

There are so many, he might as well post them all in one thread. They are allowed, but frownes upon. You can report this spam to admins.

I believe a similar question has been poised in recent history and the response was something along the lines of that it would be unfair to sellers to sell a diverse listing of products in a single thread (for example to have to sell both men's jackets and women's pants -- potential customers would likely ask questions about the clothes and all the responses regarding men's jackets would be irrelevant to someone who is interested in buying women's pants). I believe the response implied that this kind of behavior is allowed. (Another good example would be all of TheButterZone's listings, mostly in goods as they are very diverse (he does BTW, have multiple, similar items listed in the same thread).

With the above being said, I would tend to agree that this kind of behavior is spammy and probably unfairly allows a single seller to have a larger portion of the first page then he really should. Also it would essentially allow him to get around the one bump per 24 hours rule as he could bump his threads throughout the day.

Regardless of the forum rules, I would not personally do business with someone that engages in this type of behavior over the long term, and would not recommend anyone to do so either. I wouldn't call him a scammer though.

..dude moved all of his sales thread to the bitcoin discussion board.
guess he got a warning or something.

Why bitcoin discussion? Isn't that worse? They're digital goods; they should stay where they were.

New rule (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.msg13824306#msg13824306), might as well lock the thread now

If he was any good, he would have a domain name sales site, and link to that. That would give him a much broader market, and more chance of getting decent Google placement.

I also once asked this user to move all his domains to 1 thread and he deleted my post. Look like after new rule, he got the point.
