You're probably out of luck then. They rarely seem to restore people's accounts who provide all the correct info so they're unlikely going to investigate with the info you provided.

Why do you idiots think everybody else is one? Nobody is going to believe this crap. So you're actually claiming that you don't know the johne account? You're saying two random people in the exact same circumstances have by chance had their accounts banned for the same reason then they both create accounts with john in the name and practically the same facebook@gmail email addresses? C'mon.


Why are users spamming and buying hacked accounts? You're not a valued user here. You're a greedy spammer who only cares about earning money lazily. What hard work have you done exactly? The hard work you did forcing yourself to spam posts as fast as you can over numerous accounts just so you could hit the required rank to join a signature campaign? You're just wasting your time here.

Oh, it's your brothers account now . Please stop it as these excuses aren't going to work. You had numerous accounts banned for the exact same reasons then you create new accounts with johne and johnxe names who both protest innocence and who both have facebook@gmail.com email addresses with random numbers on the end, but you expect us to believe you're different people? C'mon. You wont be getting the accounts back.

Sob stories wont work. I don't care if you're poor or a millionaire; all spammers and people using hacked accounts will be treated the same. Stop wasting yours and everybody else's time and accept that you bought hacked accounts and got them all banned for trying to spam your way through the ranks.

Stop wasting yours and everyone's time. You bought multiple hacked accounts and then spammed your way via shitposts to hit Full and Senior member just so you could immediately join a signature campaign to post even more crap over numerous accounts. Your accounts wont be unbanned.

His username not his real name which you've just made up. Besides, he can't be much of a friend if he sold you hacked accounts. I'd ask him for your money back.

Same thing all your other accounts were banned for and there's more to come. Not sure why you have to create a new account to ask for each one.

I mean, the usernames (and even emails) are practically the same so you can't even pretend that you're different people: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2262039.msg22936176#msg22936176

I'm not so sure about that. Look at the three accounts that sign up directly before him in the Ice Rock campaign:

All accounts have some form of passwords/emails/woke up from inactivity warnings, all have activity/post counts the same (usually an indicator of a farmed account), and suddenly start shitposting to hit rank to join the same campaign.

Within the hour providing you have enough activity, unless you mean the activity periods which are all different every fortnight but there's a table somewhere with the exact times.

It has a thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=877.4140

Local boards are added as and when needed when there's demand for them. A lot of reports have been coming in about nonsense posts and bot spam in the local Japanese thread and it would probably be exploited by sig spammers and farmers just like the Chinese section is. Sadly, a lot of local boards are ripe for abuse due to only having one mod or none at all in some cases so I'm often against them unless there is huge demand for them, which is hard to gauge as people often have ulterior motives for them to be created.

You don't need to google it because he provides the source and that's what the Press section is for (unfortunately). It's a lazy way to get paid from your campaign, but pretty much every staff member is in agreement that the Press section has served its purpose and is now no longer needed and redundant (not to mention prime for abuse like in this case). The entire section should be locked/archived.

No, but I rarely go in the alt coin section due to all the nonsense in there, but mprep usually handles them. Not 100% sure on his policy of trashing threads but he does seem to if it's explicitly stated to do post in them. Check these threads for example though:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2256260.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2256651.0

Neither state you have to post in them and one even says don't post your address or the thread will be trashed yet it is full of pointless spam like:



Which is just going to be a farmers paradise. As I'm sure you're aware it would be extremely time consuming to remove all those posts one by one and/or issue bans but they shouldn't be there and it's not exclusively the OPs fault either (unless they do state somewhere that you have to post something in the thread (which I have seen before)).


They're just sign up or post an address and get paid in some pre-mined shitcoin giveaways and of course the scavenger sig spamming shitehawks swarm in for anything that is free.

As above, no. You can bid on forum ad slots here or have someone design you a bbcode signature if you wanted.

I have actually suggested that image banners be allowed as a perk in a special donator rank which I think would be a worthwhile bonus/investment to consider.

Some nations might not have a choice and there will be nothing many governments can do about it unless you're a totalitarian nation and try to ban its use outright but it will still thrive underground. It will be interesting to see if a troubled nation adopts either bitcoin or a crypto as their main currency when their own fiat goes tits up. Places like the UK have already embraced it and know crypto is here to stay and have issued guidelines on how it should be taxed so I'm not sure how they could turn around 180 and then decide to ban it (and on what grounds) when it starts to get popular or threaten fiat. I don't think it will ever happen with financially stronger nations anyway but it would be awesome if it did over time become the defacto currency, but most of the mainstream will still fear it for it ever to replace fiat completely.

Bump.


Games and Rounds needs to go. There are people farming hundreds of accounts in there with many likely using bots. I've even seen hacked accounts reactivate after years of inactivity just to copy and paste someone else's giveaway address or username from an earlier post years ago.

Off topic should also be considered. It's the go-to board for illiterate newbies who know nothing about bitcoin but have heard you can earn here and shitposting account farmers to spam their way through the ranks. An even better solution though would be to remove signatures from ranks somehow and it'll solve the issue we have with people trying to spam their way to x rank or farm dozens of accounts for free.

Well I'm glad to see someone is learning. Hopefully the culture around here will change pretty fast and instead of people seeing a spam thread and getting excited about how they can easily earn a post in there spouting a line or two of nothingness they will realise it's pointless posting in it and either leave it alone or report it.

Yes. It will count up to the 14 activity you can get for that activity period. If you just spam posts for activity you'll likely be banned though.

You can bid on forum advertising slots here:

Nice to see you're only concerned about getting caught cheating a campaign. Your account seems to have almost exclusively been farmed with games and rounds spam so I'm guessing the others have been too.


They could if they made people sign up via an external site  which logs IPs but sadly most campaigns don't care about alts even though the majority of them prohibit it.

How clear do you want them than thread? I think new users should be urged to read them upon sign-up though.


There's no forum rule against it but signature campaigns usually only allow one. You also don't get unlimited space so you probably couldn't fit two of most signatures in.
