Plus three others saying the same. When I say something is a fact it is because it is.

Is there any possible way to un-ban profile?

Not when you get caught for copy and pasting:

Is there any possible way to un-ban a profile?

Sir. We even dont know what is it malware. But this is not important. As you say, maybe I have delete evidence. How can I delete messeges from those four user inbox messages? Kindly ask you, check there incoming message box. There is nothing from Linstrin account! We sure!
Thanks.

P.S. Question for the community. What do you think, is it ok to ban any body without evidence?

There is evidence. At least four pieces of it. You were banned because of that evidence. We don't just ban people for nothing. Whether you want to accept it or not it is a fact that the account was sending phishing links.
1884  Other / Meta / Re: FAULTY BAN!!! Moderator please look out here on: July 24, 2018, 09:56:57 AM
So you can check our Outbox PM and you see that we are not sending phishing message. We are not deleted any message from our Outbox and also you can check those four users inbox PM, and im sure that there is nothing from Linstrin account. We are clear company with all our customers and it looks like its some kind of order from our competitors. Please sir be so kind and check any related information with this case. This is really important for us, cause we are long term company.
Best regards

I can't check that account's outbox, but I can tell you for a fact at least four were sent. There was possibly more that didn't get reported. You probably downloaded malware that sent them and maybe the malware removes the evidence once the messages are sent.

What kind of system BitcoinTalk forum using, that they cannot chek outbox of Linstrin and see, that there was no any Phishing message send!?
Hope that between moderators still have some people who are want to make that forum best forum all over the Crypto world.
And stop banning good project without understanding of situation!

I just searched 'linstrin' in my private messages and there's four reports from different users reporting a phishing message that account sent them, so that's why.
1886  Other / Meta / Re: Account banned, not sure why on: July 23, 2018, 04:20:01 PM
Probably copy and pasting.

Is this your own work:

There are plenty of crypto non-believers, and they all seem to have very common complaints about the crypto space as a whole. Here are 5 of these complaints and responses to make them think.

1. There is no intrinsic value.

"How can a digital computer code have value?" is a common complaint and it seems logical to people who don't really understand value or money in general. The thing is, Not much in this world really does have any value other than what we as people assign to it. FIAT money is paper backed by a government promise, Gold and other precious metals/stones are just shiny things we pulled out the ground etc. etc. - the only things that really have intrinsic value are food, water and family... everything else is man-made.

This brings me back to my point, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have as much value as any other type of money, if not more because they are backed by an intuitive progressive technology and the energy costs used to create them (for POW currencies).

2. The price of crypto is pure speculation.

While true to a point, this is really a non-point. It's not really any different to the way traditional markets work including the housing market, where landlord buy houses looking to make a profit when the price rises above inflation (hopefully). Moreover, there isn't really such thing as the purchase of something that isn't speculative, buying a meal in a restaurant is essentially a bet that the food will be worth what you paid to eat it.

3. It isn't used as money.

While partly true, it's still wrong. While not at the point of mass adoption, there are places where people can spend crypto and many people do on a daily basis. Some of these payments will be for questionable purposes through the deep web but there are also many legitimate transactions through crypto debit cards. In places like Venezuela people would far rather be paid in crypto than the hyperinflationary bolivar and people forget that it is still early in the development phase. Scaling solutions are in the process of being rolled out while certain altcoins designed as everyday currencies are progressing through development at a rapid pace. it's not much of a stretch of the imagination to imagine a time in the near future when crypto payments are just as convenient as FIAT transactions.

4. Too many Blockchains.

Anyone can fork a blockchain. Anyone can create a coin. But it is the same with most other goods and services in an economy. Anyone can cook a meal, but that doesn’t mean that food is unnecessary. An argument can be made that there is no need for thousands of crypto tokens and I could argue that there is no reason that Nike makes 100 different types of trainers. What actually matters is that as long as the token or coin has a use case then there is a reason for it to exist. It is important to recognize that Blockchain is a technology, and while it has a major use case as a currency, this is not it's only purpose. It can be deployed in an infinite number of ways.

5. Crypto Mining costs

While crypto mining costs are undoubtedly high, and some mining farms use more electricity than some countries, it is important to realise that no monetary system is without costs. Gold has to be mined from the ground and costs a ridiculous amount of money per kg that is extracted; its part of the reason that Gold has such a high price.

Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology are still in their infancy, and it is important to realise that there is still a long way to go in terms of development. Mining costs are necessary to secure the network and when blockchain proves to the world how secure it's network is and the benefits it can bring, I doubt many people will complain about the costs associated with mining then.

Bot or what? Sounds like a potential bitcointalk game show.

It's just a shitposter farming an account. There's hundreds of accounts that lazily post this sort of rubbish. I banned him.

You follow that: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0

Then you wait.

Block the person from sending you PMs and problem solved.
1891  Other / Meta / Re: Account as collateral - How it reflects the forum rule? on: July 16, 2018, 01:58:35 PM
There are no forum rules on this. You can accept whatever you want as collateral and is entirely up to you to secure.
1892  Other / Meta / Re: Do you consider this as begging? on: July 13, 2018, 05:29:27 PM
I appreciate your insight about this. However, isn't it much worse in PT than in a post? It is as if he/she is showing the text whenever he/she goes.

No, I don't think so. Begging addresses and ref links aren't allowed in posts, but they're fine in signatures or personal texts. I don't really see an issue with the reminder in their PT, but I think it's largely pointless. If you make good posts you'll probably get the merit anyway, but I think it's likely to have a counterproductive effect and many people won't merit after seeing the message.
1893  Other / Meta / Re: Do you consider this as begging? on: July 13, 2018, 04:38:45 PM
You could just PM him (or her) and tell them it's frowned upon and that they should consider removing it. I'd rather it there than in posts though. It's not begging I don't think, just as people who put their bitcoin address in their PT and ask for donations or whatever. Nobody will probably give them merit just like nobody would send anyone bitcoin donations.

Bump. Ideally would like to exchange 2 bitcoin cash for the equivalent in ETH, but can do up to 4.
1896  Other / Meta / Re: Macros Posting Advertisements on Thread on: July 13, 2018, 11:48:41 AM
Just report these users. I deleted the posts and gave him a temp ban.
1897  Other / Meta / Re: Should posting advice be in Meta or beginners? on: July 13, 2018, 11:48:13 AM
It probably will depend on the sort of thread. I'm not sure if that one belongs in Reputation though, and I certainly wouldn't have put it there. Maybe off topic if I had to.

how to avoid permanent ban?
If you have to ask, you probably deserve a ban. Roll Eyes

A well-behaved, "normal" "user" of this forum will not run into a ban inadvertently.

It's likely he's already had one on a previous account.
1899  Other / Meta / Re: how to avoid permanent ban? on: July 13, 2018, 09:15:47 AM
whether phishing links can be permabanned?

Yes. Edited my post above to include phishing.
1900  Other / Meta / Re: how to avoid permanent ban? on: July 13, 2018, 09:07:46 AM
Don't copy and paste content.
Don't post malware/phishing links.

Those are the two main reasons why people are permabanned.
