Why did you wait until now to create a thread about this? It seems a little suspicious.

What would be the difference between taking money from them and then letting them to rank up and post, and not taking any money from them and letting them rank up to a certain point and post free of charge? You want to charge people to rank up? That's building the system around signature campaigns. That's not how the forum should be controlled, is it? are you selling accounts? The truth hath been reveal'd: all the reputation threads were right. I am a serial account seller and own 20 alts including Lauda and thermos. [/quote]I just don't think forcing people to pay to rank up is a good system.

None of the account farmers could afford to pay $200 They can, because they've been account farming and bumming off signature and bounty campaigns.
Any threads to do with changing how one ranks up should be simply dismissed. The only reason for creating those is to make it more accessible for those to participate in signature campaigns, which is not what a forum (a hub for discussion) is designed for.

This is not explicitly against the rules (as far as I can tell after reading them over three times) but is certainly annoying. I don't know if you really want to impose any restrictions on this because then we run into problems of 'what is too much' link advertising.
You should definitely be allowed to post while linking to another site for further information.
But the third quote is definitely delete-worthy. They don't even finish their sentence.

Not Plagiarised (with source results to not stolen) Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and worldwide payment system. It is the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central bank or single administrator. The network is peer-to-peer and transactions take place between users directly, without an intermediary. These transactions are verified by network nodes through the use of cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain. Bitcoin was invented by an unknown person or group of people under the name Satoshi Nakamoto and released as open-source software in 2009. Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin It would be better with a quote, no? Not quoting this makes it increase your post size and tells readers that the message is the poster's idea on a subconscious level.
I'm pretty sure that if we force users to quote all external information, the number of padded posts would decrease. This is just a lazy way of spamming and if a user only replies with a quote and nothing else, that adds little to a discussion.

Trusted feedback is based on a user's trust settings. The default settings make it so that only DT1 and DT2 members' (along with the user's itself) ratings show up as trusted feedback.
One trade doesn't make you trustworthy. Especially for $2. This thread is borderline begging for trust.

Citing the source is one thing but copy/pasting should be assessed on a case-to-case basis.
I've seen some users simply copy pasting news articles on coindesk and pasting them here without any attempt at discussion at all. If this goes unchecked pretty soon you could have bots using forum keywords to search for online articles to copy paste here. I do think those users should be warned and/or punished. Remember that spamming is posting without substance and if they're not willing to at least add to a discussion then the thread is pointless. It's like if you were to post a lot of threads in Economics about the bitcoin price, every hour. Useless.

Sourcing it is fine. The rule indicates that the user in question is passing it off as their own. Citing a source ≠ plagiarism (unless there's improper citing).

The fact that aTriz started bounty threads after lauda made this statement disagrees with this claim. I don't think so. aTriz can deal with bounty management on his own, yeah? All it means is that ALU is no longer associated with them. Also, I'm not exactly sure about what ALU's role in aTriz's bounties is: doesn't aTriz escrow the funds anyway? The only thing I can assume is that Untold does the design.

as far as i am concern the main issue is spam and i can change the shit spams that i have done,in the future if i have still a chance i wont do it anymore but aint going to happen because pharmacist wont consider it. You decided to change only after you were caught, that's what you're saying. Doesn't seem like very trustworthy behavior, bud. It's easy to change after you've been exposed but if you really meant well for the forum you wouldn't have spammed in the first place. Duh.

As far as I know, there is a common term in all sig. campaigns, which is "1 bitcointalk account per person(If you are found to be enrolling alts you and your alt are kicked out with no pay)"
The above term I have taken from Yahoo's campaign, but the same term can be found in all other manager's campaigns as well, isn't it? That's for the individual campaign. But the sentiment should be taken in the sense of the entire space of all campaigns. Post quality is inversely proportional to the number of enrolled accounts that an individual is posting on. Thus there is no way that they can sensibly create enough good-quality replies to justify the multiple-campaign alts.
And in fact if you look at their post history, you see so many garbage burst spamposts that are general/vague answers to giant megathreads. Not useful at all. These four "posts" were created in less than 2 minutes: It is really necessary because the bulls will soon be tired,and these bears are going to dominate the market once again.Corrects within bullish trend is really necessary to test the current support levels so it doesnt mean that the market will crash ,it is just small corrections ! we are still in a bullish trend which is why these bearish candles are too weak. Well as far as i can see ethereum is pointing upwards like what bitcoin has,so it should go further.You shouldnt be worried about ethereum as it has a good working platform which most of the new projects are using,ethereum can easily get backed up unlike those shitcoins in the market! ethereum has the reason to stay behind bitcoin and you should know why. You shouldnt be aiming for the signatures,instead try to learn the basic things in here so you can make a lot of money later when you are ready.Signature campaigns are the reason why the whole forum was flooded by the shitposters which is why you shouldnt be aiming for the signatures,yes it is profitable for those people who deserves it. I would go with bitcoin as it is very bullish as of the moment and it might hit $9k levels today.The trend seems to be strong as what my technical analysis shows,bitcoin is getting ready to break the resistances at $8k and you should take your profits when you are happy and ease because the market corrections are going to show up sooner or later. The bolded reply is amusing.

Spams should be a 7day ban or anythigng else,but to tag my accounts with reds without trying to scam people? that is purely BS. Account sellers also aren't outright scamming people but the behavior is scummy. I wouldn't trust an account seller. Likewise, I wouldn't trust an account farmer. And as evidenced by the feedback, The Pharmacist thinks the same. I also do tag people for copy-pasting, which is against the rules: it's a perm ban.
Maybe you should be permanently banned for spamming across all your accounts. Would you like that instead? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

[3] Yes, I saw that virtue signalling and I appreciate it. It's either virtue signal or get complaints about not tagging aTriz because of consistency. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ P.P.P.S I'm surprised I haven't been christened as an alt till date. Most of the time if someone is making logically sound arguments, they aren't considered an alt. However, the wanton behavior found in many of these scam/reputation threads is to accuse one of being a QS/Lauda alt, to which most the time either accusation is based on dismissive nature. These prejudices have become normal behavior to which I would vehemently disagree with. It's not right to completely disregard users using ad-hominem attacks, never mind accusing them of being an individual and then basing the attack on that.
I'm trying to be objective here: I just find the "you're an alt, your opinion is invalid" argument completely silly.

I am [...] not a multiple signature abuser, which makes it unacceptable. He said that he was irrirated with the posts,im sure most of the people here has their own alt accounts. You admitted to spam. Using multiple accounts in bounties/campaigns to spam and earn money off of it is not something that seems trustworthy. Given that and the fact that trust is subjective, I don't think The Pharmacist should have to remove the red trust. Unless for some reason everyone wants to see more spam on the forum . ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

You should be able to reset the password via email. It hasn't been 14 days yet either so you can also lock the account.

I'm giving you negative trust because you copy-pasted content. This is and should be bannable.
There are no rules about merit trading though a lot of people do find it unacceptable. However, that's now what I'm here to discuss. If you want to talk about refuting the plagiarized post then you can do so.
If you want to justify the post while at the same time reasoning why you would delete it, that would be well-appreciated.
