Done! Signature & Avatar changed, post count updated. Thanks good luck to the campaign. 

I try to report every day. When I have some free time on my mobile I always go trough the Patrol page.
I need only one tool.
Report button in the search results, it's gonna be much easier. I have suggested this many times before.
Same as the report history it can be unlock only after reaching certain amount of good reports.
Maybe some other "tools" can be accessible too, like multiple reports with one click. /a tick select option for every post/.
I'm willing to dedicate some of my time to fight with the spammers as I'm doing it already. I'm not looking for rewards.

Yesterday I found this spam post /quoted below/ while searching for homographs.
Started reported around 20 cases, then I asked LoyceV to list all he can find.
We listed more than 50 account with total of ~ 400 posts.
The Mods has done their job deleting and banning them.

Now, today a new wave of this spam is flooding the forum again.

Looks like all the posts are the same, but they are not:
1. Every ico.primecore link for each post is different.
2. The hompgraph pattern is different / they change  letters like "a"  in some words but not all and on random basis so every post is "unique" / in other words, if you copy part of the text and search for it, you will get just one or two results max.

How this can be stopped?? It is clearly a bot activity.

OMG man, Thanks!! If I win the raffle too, I'll give away the other coin.
What a Friday 13th.., I'll remember it quite long

I'm planning to run two nodes sometime soon, but I have to decide which solution is better.
To build a physical machine home or get a VPS.
And here comes the question about the Internet bandwidth.
I have a shitty ADSL line with no more than 7Mbit connection, in the best cases.

What is the real bandwidth required for the Full node and same question for the LN node, does the number of open channels affect the bandwidth.

Good morning Krogo.
Friday 13th,

Let's see if it will bring me luck.

It's summer people / at least in Europe/ so guess what, the MS a.k.a Merit sources are sunbathing somewhere on the beach with a fresh, cold cocktail and giving 0 fucks for all the complaints here. Well, I am not a MS but planning to  do the same this weekend and suggest you do it too /if it's summer around you of course/.
Just take a break from all this merit drama and enjoy the life for a bit.

This can be applied only on the problematic sections - the ones we already have the 12 hours rule.

Can a user delete a poll if he posted it by mistake? Couldn't find any option to remove it.
Already asked here but got no answer :

It has been discussed earlier one or two times*, but since the situation has changed the last few months, it OK to open the subject once again.

Most of the spammers and bots has advanced to Jr. members. Bots are still spamming with meaningless posts all the time. Thanks to LoyceV and the Mods, we have reported just yesterday more than 50 accounts related to the РrіmeCorеICO spam case.

Cases like this pop-up every week.

Thank you Krogo, Got your PM.
Let's try again. Maybe I'll have a piece of Bill Gator's luck and win 2 times in a row today...

I support the idea LoyceV to be a mod, same as Welsh I see no better candidates for such position.

@LoyceV, the ones you send me yesterday seems banned already. I was about to report them but the job was finished before i got my hand on.

I'll give you some ideas for search as I find many variations with homograph attacks like those.










I can list more if you have the time to play with the phrases or keywords like "Cognizant","apperceptive" etc.  

Just wondering, why on DVD? Isn't it easier /faster/ to put the ISO on a USB instead.
Back in the day there was one option called WUBI Windows-based Ubuntu Installer or something, you could install Ubuntu trough windows installer, it does everything for you and makes it a dual boot machine, you can uninstall it pretty easy too, but I think this option was discontinued after the Natty Narwhal version that came with Unity instead of GNOME as a default shell.

Woo hoo, Thanks!! Building a collection now
Krogo, I'll pm you the details later today.

I guess part of the problem is that you cannot delete a poll if you want. I made a mistake some time ago and added a poll to a wrong thread. Couldn't delete it at all.

Yeah I know that, but since Trust is already mutated from it's main purpose in more wide covering areas like the merit abuse, alt-accounts, spam & shitposting, and nothing was done to prevent it from happening,  I was thinking that one option like I suggested can be only a benefit for those people reporting posts.

Hello Krogo,
Seems like everyone are on vacation already
let me take 1

Congratulations to the new Merit Source, now they are 83

I think we have to hunt them for a few days again.. sad story.

Update>
First> Maybe I did't mention it earlier, but the spammers are using Homographs, that's how I got them!
Second > Here is the Ann thread promoting the PrimecoinICO.
Third> The links in the posts lead to different pages /I haven't clicked any of them/ Just hover over the links in the below quotes and you will figure it out.
