I find it very amusing how people conflict against them self while trying to be a 'Hero'. Sure the bogus post are bothering but a normal person would find no problem to avoid the same old threads. This includes newbies too. And yes there are list and plugins available to skip them.
A
one-liner is no guarantee of
BS, nor is a
ten-line post a guarantee of a
contributing post. So let's all stop pretending we don't utter BS. Because damn it is a forum it should be. Remember most of the people in the world can't even write correctly... So this is exactly what you can expect from an open forum...
Till the day of today I only found 2 users who did not post ANY BS.
- Theymos, who is all business like, which is fine
- Mexxer, who posted so many but all beneficial topic, which is quite an achievement tbh.
All others and I mean ALL others (including moderators) are posting BS occasionally
Example? Well that's easy. Here is 1 quote from a usual 'spam' thread.
i think you are right if you are gambling alone is hard to win and you will lose but i think the beter idea is to gamble by investing with house that will make the advantage with you because the house always win
But investing into gambling site is not a gambling. It becomes investment. Not only in gambling sites, you can invest into any profitably running business. But they must be reputed one.
Yes this iis true. If you own the casino or betting website you're sure not to loose. If you're a player on the other hand, expect to loose money on those gambling websites.
You're not
sure not to loose. If you own the source of the gambling, then the odds are in your favor. I agree with that statement, because of the statistical reality of how the house edge works, albeit if you're considering that you will always be profiting off gamblers, it's not a guarantee. There is a more likely chance that you will always be in the green, but (even if you impose a max limit) there could be a chance for someone or a group of people to win all of your bankroll, which then you are done.
Nothing new right? But if you look closer you will find 2 wannabe Hero's whom replied in this thread posting.. bogus, repeating others, rephrasing others, whatever you want to call it.

So what we can conclude here is that EVERYONE here has some off-topic posts. but,
The ones with a higher reputation or no signature are holy and can post whatever BS they want
And the ones who are spending their time to get paid peanuts (A signature campaign will never earn you more then 10 bucks an hour) can expect a hate campaign.
A hate campaign from members who can camouflage their BS better and are in fact doing exactly the same, since they visit those 'same old threads'... There should be a bot to check how many post 1 user made in 1 thread, without making a useful contribution, so you can see we ALL do it and not just 'a few times'
Really....
Sure there is a difference between spamming and posting plain out BS, but that line is grey and yes hard action should be taken against it/them. By default it is the signature campaigns duty to make sure their employer don't pay for BS posts. Since they are the ones who are losing money. They are the managers and they should select good candidates. If they fail either them or their employers should be addressed too. It's not
What's wrong is a moderator who apparently spends a lot of time on this forum and feels he needs to be rewarded more, stars blackmailing campaign managers, Yes that's you Hillie. That's putting too much power in the hand of 1 entity.
Sending new people away because of the 'SPAM'
I beg to differ. A lot has been said about bitcointalk, and we all agree quality is not one of them;
Scams, How can I make 1 dollar? Altcoins...
Most people will do what I did and find another thread to get information.
Take notice that without traffic and views the forum will soon be dead because even 'average' people like
-actmyname
-tommorisonwebdesign
Will be banned.
No users means no advertisers for BCT, a dead BCT means less awareness for BCT in general.
Let's all try to avoid this, because only that will kill the forum.
I appreciate it if you read it all out.
Edit. Since I don't want my Hillie friend to delete this post let me say something on topic too.
No, accounts farmers are not creating new ponzi's are no they should not be banned. The forum should implement a system where 1 account can only be used by 2 IP's. Which leaves TOR out, but VPN's can be used. This way a user can have a max. of a few accounts and selling it an account won't be possible since you need an ecrow and a person to login.
Then add a dedicated staff person who can assign 1 extra IP for 0.01 per account. This keeps the process manageable by the staff and account farmers need to do way more work to sell their accounts.
Honest persons who want to leave BCT (adios amigo) can still sell it for just 0.01 'fee'
