please tell me how to see the same posts with others we are confused to look for it, and it is very difficult to find one by one
I don't really understand what you are saying, but as far as I understood, you are trying to avoid plagiarism /or you are hunting for copy-pasters??/ Both cases use the search engine, put part of the text in between " and search for it. Example: If you search for : this is my sentence You write in the search field " this is my sentence" You probably gonna get the result you are looking for. But don't rely on solely on the forum Search engine. Use Google too. Write the same sentence in Google, you may be surprised how many hits you gonna get.

The major reason of getting banned is not reading (caring about) the rules. Everything else are just consequences.

I think now, after the change and the new restriction the situation is much better. I don't really think new moderators /in the English section at least/ are needed. I think we need more time to see if is still needed.

Just a suggestion but, can you archive those that have ranked up and have in the OP only the active ones ? If it's not too much work for you, of course. Most of the profiles had surpassed the required merit and are no longer needed in the OP.

Yea, I saw that. I was a tad afraid of clicking that button, I figured it would fix it for that one specific user.
Not sure of Vod's intention for archived users, I'm assuming there is something automated going on which archives users upon autoban.
This is possible because I checked the profile after I reported it for plagiarism, it is possible that the mods were on duty and quickly resolved the plagiarisms case and the OP ended autobanned just before I clicked his profile. Now I took him out of the archive list, but I know for the future where to look for, and what not to do ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I actually found an option to UNARCHIVE it on the place you manually update the profile. After pressing it seems like it moved the profile to the active users. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FtN4itZt.png&t=663&c=yf4cLOyDNryTzg) Now the link is working. https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=Ghost251 Meta Log DateTime Action Detail10/8/2018 6:56:13 AM Move to Archived Users Autoban user 10/8/2018 7:47:31 AM Move to Active Unarchive Requested

Plagiarism case > The copy-pasterGhost251 BANNEDSince its inception, Bitcoin has exhibited a highly volatile nature. However, during the past few days, Bitcoin’s price volatility has fallen to the lowest level of 2018. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will most likely view Bitcoin’s calmer price oscillations favorably.
LOW VOLATILITY SIGNALS THAT INVESTORS ARE NOW HOLDING TO BITCOIN Bitcoin’s (BTC) $6591.99 -0.15% volatility has been decreasing recently. According to data provided by Highcharts, the Bitcoin volatility index for the latest 30-day estimate is 1.73 percent, and for the most recent 60-day estimate is 2.58 percent.
Legislators and regulators might view Bitcoin’s price stabilization as a positive sign. Investors may also be more likely to see Bitcoin as a potential replacement of gold as a store of value.
As FXEmpire financial expert Bob Mason put it, “The low volatility is also a statement that price manipulation has perhaps abated.”
Moreover, this new price trend indicates that investors are holding on to Bitcoin. According to Mason:
After wild swings and rollercoaster rides, Bitcoin looks to have settled into a long-term relationship with its investors, who are not speculating their days away and appear to be in it for the long haul.
On the other hand, traders might be the only ones who dislike smooth price fluctuations. Traders find sharp price swings, or volatility, in a financial asset to be quite attractive. As volatility increases, the potential to realize a profit more quickly also increases. Certainly, with higher volatility, the risk factor increases as well.
REGULATORS’ AND LEGISLATORS’ CONCERN: BITCOIN PRICE MANIPULATION AND HIGH VOLATILITY Bitcoin’s erratic price trajectory might have been one of the main factors that motivated the SEC to reject ETF petitions. In this regard, the SEC has stated that it does not believe assertions that Bitcoin and Bitcoin markets are uniquely resistant to price manipulation and hence volatility.
For example, the SEC document explaining its second rejection of the Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust petition to trade the first ever Bitcoin ETF, refers to a commenter who noted that traders could manipulate trading on the Gemini Exchange because of low trading volumes, adding:
[…] The Trust’s documentation states that momentum pricing of bitcoin has resulted, and may continue to result, in speculation regarding future appreciation in the value of bitcoin, making the price of bitcoin more volatile.
Legislators also saw Bitcoin’s high volatility as pernicious. In July 2018, both the heads of both the SEC and Commodity Future Trading Commission had to attend a Senate banking committee hearing to explain the risks posed by Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies’ volatility.
At the hearing, the regulators toned down senators’ concerns over the cryptocurrency’s “extreme volatility.” As Fortune reported, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton said:
Just recently the volatility in Bitcoin was not as great as the volatility we’ve seen in other securities, such as the VIX product.

For crypto exchanges, one incident was reported in 2016. Crypto exchange Ripple4y was hacked on July 26, 2016. Four exchange hacks were reported last year: Yapizon on April 22, Bithumb on June 28, Coinis on Sept 23, and Youbit on Dec. 19. Youbit was formerly Yapizon but changed its name after the April hack. This year, two hacking incidents were recorded: Coinrail on June 10 and Bithumb on June 19.
Government Inspections Ineffective Total of 7 Crypto Exchange and 158 Wallet Hacks in Korea, Police FindThe Korean government has been conducting security inspections of crypto exchanges operating in the country. Ten of them were inspected between September and December last year; 21 were inspected between January and March this year. Many security issues were found, as news.Bitcoin.com previously reported.
Commenting on the report and the inspections by the government, lawmaker Min Kyung-wook was quoted by Boan News saying:
The nature of cryptocurrency exchanges is always exposed to cyber threat…the hacking accidents occurred even in the places where the government conducted security checks.
Specifically, three crypto exchanges were hacked even after they were inspected by the government. Youbit was inspected in October last year but was hacked on Dec. 27. Similarly, Coinrail was inspected in February this year but was hacked on June 10. Bithumb, one of the country’s largest crypto exchanges, was the latest hack victim. The exchange was inspected twice by the regulators but was hacked on June 19.

Just wondering, can't we ( ok, theymos) separate the actual rank from the copper membership? It's not a rank anyway. Just to be added as an extra field in the profile. Same for the Donators, VIP and Staff??

I heard that banned user are able to login but not able to send the PM and write in this forum.
It makes me wonder is there is any difference between guest user and banned user? Why forum allow login to them?
The banned users can access their PM/post history if they need. If you have valuable information in from of PMs you can still retrieve it.

Oh man, I the hell I missed this topic? Damn, I could have had banned more then 30-40 accounts till now! Well it's good to have if for future reference. I don't know about perma ban, but temp ban should be for sure. Threads for these types of posts aren't really required. One or two reports should be enough(ask the mod to check post history and explain it clearly what the guy is doing in the report paragraph).
It's a permaban. This is no different than copying someone else's post and if you do this then you have absolutely no intention of contributing here and you're 100% only doing it to farm your account and/or bleed bounties whilst putting in no effort at all. It's scumbags like these that are destroying the forum. If they're too lazy to actually make posts then don't bother. I'll refer to this comment when I report them

But there are several reasons for ban, not only the plagiarism. It's true that most of the users get banned because of plagiarism.
Keep in mind that those who post here they already know (most of them) why they got banned. They are just angry because > 1. They did't read the rules. 2. They got caught 3. They are trying to demand their account back, because it was a "small" mistake, and they will never ever do it again. 4. They got banned, again, after developing their alt account using spin, homographs and other techniques , which is just ban evading btw. 5. They didn't read the rules, again. 6. They are just angry at the staff that they get caught every time and they have to start all over again.

The main reason for the ban is a Plagiarism, and the easiest way to find out is to search for your username in Meta. Lafu already wrote some guidelines here .

It's getting more and more mystical this account You will be getting a merit as soon as you'll stop looking for it. Just start helping instead of complaining and it will come. Meanwhile, just buy a Copper Membership in order to avoid the limitations, I bought mine as soon as I made the account only because I wanted to remove the time between reporting the shitposters that are asking for their ranks back now This is actually the best thing that happened with the forum at the moment, hopefully we will be rid of the "good project" shitposting made only for the sake of rank increase. NOTE> The time is wrong, because the quote if from locked thread so I used the date from the previous comment, that's why they matched. He has 2 posts but only 1 activity and one post in the profile and both posts are in Meta.Well, the second quote is from a locked thread, but still AFAIK you don't loose post count if the threads is locked. I guess he reports a lot and got the patroller position.
