There are many examples people, just check the top 1000 merit receivers and you'll see that receiving merit is not an isolated case.
Everyone can do it, takes time but it's not impossible.

BTW Happy 10th Anniversary Bitcoin’s White Paper Smiley
3502  Other / Meta / Re: Is there a thread here on the ten year anniversary of the white paper? on: October 31, 2018, 06:59:21 AM
I was looking for one too, I thought that maybe theymos posted something but I was wrong.
The only info is in the News Feed.
I guess this will be the thread, right? Smiley

@iasenko

Dont worry in the last weeks some new reporters coming or shown up , and RL have to be done first !

I try to give my best on reporting bro !   Grin  Cheesy

I know man, you are one of the most dedicated guys reporting and you have been active most of the time. Thanks for that man.
I'm proud of what this club has become. I though in the beginning that we gonna be only 3-4 people, but it turns out that I was mistaken.
Thank you guys Smiley

I'm also quite slow lately, not enough free time to report and have fun with the plagiarists Sad To many deadlines at work and many projects at home so it looks like I won't be at full power reporting any time soon. I make some small bursts of reports when I get 5 mins free time but, most of the reports need a deeper investigation..

@morvillz7z it's good to have a place where to report those.
I'm quite busy IRL lately, but hopefully someone can take a look at those accounts.
We are taking them down slowly Smiley

I think we need to have a Club investigation board with more restrictions so only those in the club can access this info.

Given that the "1 merit for signature" rule has consistently reduced the number of posts by 20-30%, we can confidently draw the conclusion that it is reducing spam.

These data demonstrate that the number of posts has decreased. Yes, we can conclude that quantitatively there`s less spam (although there`s no direct correlation between the decrease in the number of posts and spam, since it`s possible that participants generally began to write less, not less spam). But these indicators don`t say anything about the quality of written posts. Even if the number of shitposts has become less, this doesn`t mean that they have become of higher quality. Therefore, we can`t talk about solving the problem so far. In my opinion, the spam issue should be solved in two directions: it`s necessary to reduce the number of shitposts, but at the same time improve the quality of comments. And for this, an incentive is needed (in our case, the required number of merit to increase the rank). And it seems to me that 1 merit for motivation is extremely insufficient.

It's really simple, those who earned money in sig. campaigns with 0 effort /newbies and Jr.members/ can no longer do it and big part of them gave up.
Those who really push to do it, now pay either for merit or for Copper Membership.

It's not that difficult for shitposters to get a single merit to become Junior. They might not get it legitimately but I'm seeing a lot of shitposting juniors with one suspicious merit floating around. They can also just purchase the Copper Membership for $15-$20 or whatever it is. I still think we should remove Junior's signatures and require ten merit before you can get one. This makes it ten times harder or costlier for them to abuse.

Yeah, I agree but the number of those shitposters is not so big anymore as it was before. I can find in Bitcoin Discussions more legit threads that those spam-mega-threads, the Off-topic is not so popular anymore as it used to be before. Now if you refresh it every 15 seconds there are no new posts as there were before.

You cannot delete or deactivate your account if that's what you are trying to achieve.

Breaking forum rules:
Bounty thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5047247.0

They are continuously bumping thread with good project and quoted full thread. I am reporting daily. Mod. could check my history. They are not following forum rules so thread should be trashed or locked.

Note: Replies have reported up to today. 


No one will stop the spammer ? http://archive.is/kvfo6

The bounty section is the least concern for the mods.
There's no point of bumping the bounty threads.
3512  Other / Meta / Re: Community generated suggestions to improve the forum (+ eventual voting on them) on: October 29, 2018, 02:04:33 PM
As I stated earlier I don't see the need at the moment.
The ranking up process is locked by the new rules. The total shitposters cannot rank up to Jr. the ones that are more advances will probably reach up to member but not more.

Those shitposters that got the merit airdropped are now being filtered, I see so many ban appeals every day, so after some time the forum will be cleaned from most of the spammers. This process will continue and more and more of those who post nonsense will be filtered naturally.
I think theymos did enough changes /restrictions/ which will have more impact in a bit longer run.

Have you post somewhere a wallet address you are still in control of? The exchange "wallets" does not count, as you don't own the private keys /and the wallet/.
If you have the private keys of the address, you can easily sign a message.

I was wrong about the active members, I was on a mobile I couldn't get the correct info from BPIP website.
Now, according to Vod, the BPIP's Active Profiles are those who have logged in at least once for the last 3 mounts.
Here is the final update from today > 322,676 Active Profiles

Hero can be certainly demoted. I have a proof of it where Hero demoted itself just to take part in signature campaign to satisfy Merit requirement.
I thought hero account can't be demoted, is this is something new?


Not only Hero but Legendary too can be demoted.
Here is one from Legendary to Hero >

Now Bitcoin discussion is far better than what it used to be a couple of months ago. Spam threads are quickly getting locked, duplicates reported. Although copy-pasters are getting banned, altcoin discussion board is still worse with duplicate threads and spam mega threads not getting locked. Maybe if a good number of reporters actively reporting on altcoin discussion board (not bounties and announcements), half the spam would be gone, making it better for discussions.

It's not so quick process, keep in mind that before the changes / like the announcement for the reporter badges,the new mods like Welsh and Flying Hellfish, the more detailed reports stats and some other recent changes / people were not so familiar with reporting and only a few were doing it /I was one of them/. Now more are interested in doing it in a hope to get a badge one day, which is good. Imagine when the badges are actually implemented, there will be more and more people reporting and they gonna focus on different sections of  the forum. We are going the right way so it will come the time to the Altcoin section too, just wait.

@Timelord2067 proof that i'm an alt of Quicksilver since getting 1 Merit of QS is hardly something you can call a proof

There are so many fishy things with this thread but it's still there open and running.
Maybe my reports were bad formulated.
