Title: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: Quickseller on February 05, 2015, 01:01:57 AM User josef2000 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=359905) has posted 13 times asking various people if they accept escrow out of the last 20 posts he has made.
This includes 9 times in the span of ~8 minutes. Looking at pages two and three, most of his posts are made up of very short posts, including several others inquiring about escrow (while it does not appear that he ever follows up with the threads later, indicating a probable lack of interest in actually trading). He is wearing a bit mixer paid signature. I would like to request that this be addressed. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow?

One question,why am I not allowed to ask people if they accept escrow to prevent a scam? Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: redsn0w on February 05, 2015, 04:10:01 PM Thanks. One question,why am I not allowed to ask people if they accept escrow to prevent a scam? It is called "spam" , and in this forum the spam is not accepted. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: josef.2000 on February 05, 2015, 04:15:34 PM Thanks.

If I will post the same phrase 100 times per day , it is called "spam"; if I will post " +1, great, etc.." it is also called unsubstantial post/spam.

I found him a bit difficult to talk to (maybe he's a teenager or has ADHD?), but the trade went fine.
Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: josef.2000 on February 06, 2015, 11:06:48 AM Now one question, am I allowed to send out PMs post posts with this account, because my main was banned

It's probably ok to send messages for this, though there wouldn't really be any way for staff to know you were sending PMs unless they were reported. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: BadBear on February 06, 2015, 01:11:00 PM Josef,I sent you a pm.
Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: cagrund on February 07, 2015, 02:06:27 PM I would like to request to (temporary) remove the ban for Josef2000 because we have an GB where he is a buyer.
Please check GB --> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=895021.0 Thanks, Carsten. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: rikrikrik on February 08, 2015, 11:17:34 PM well i know i am still new to these forums but i have lost alot of money from "trustworthy people" on other boards why isnt asking if people accept escrow a valid question even if it is 20 times a day?

He did not appear to have any actual interest in the answer to his question. His behavior was indicating that he was most likely asking the question for no reason other then he was getting paid on a per post basis and he was really not contributing to the conversation Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: Grand_Voyageur on February 09, 2015, 06:35:57 AM well i know i am still new to these forums but i have lost alot of money from "trustworthy people" on other boards why isnt asking if people accept escrow a valid question even if it is 20 times a day? Maybe because user is not following up to question posed. His/Her behaviour seems limited to ONLY up post count. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: haploid23 on February 09, 2015, 07:12:46 AM No wonder his account name seemed familiar. He went straight to my ignore list after making a loan request.
Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: botany on February 09, 2015, 02:19:50 PM I have seen posts like "All collateral to be held by trusted escrow" appear in multiple threads. :)

Newbie with 38 single line posts today. One post has even been made twice in the same thread. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow?

I found him a bit difficult to talk to (maybe he's a teenager or has ADHD?), but the trade went fine. 2000 = year 2000 aka 14 / 15 years probably , its possible that he's a big trader and dont wanna get scammed.Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow? Post by: krigger on February 12, 2015, 08:01:32 AM Many people are creating accounts here to pump them and sell later when rank goes up.
It is clear that he is spamming to pump up the post count. New accounts should be restricted about new posts idk, like a month or so, by limiting them to 5 posts per day or so. You cannot just come and post anything. It aint rite. I would like to be a Hero member too and to gain a bunch of BTCBTCBTC per month, but I dont want to spam or bother with spammy content. Community is about to be social. Being social? Well, search about it. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow?

Community is about to be social. Being social? Well, search about it. Post count over activity count is an overkill since Rank is calculated on the minimum between the two counts. I don't think we need such a new cap. Title: Re: User spamming the question: Do you accept escrow?
