It really depends, as already mentioned, on several factors. Some reports can be handled by more mods, some by less. Also, don't worry about the percentage, it's more of a reminder of what kind of posts you should report rather than judging the quality of those reports.

He was warned to stop that and it seems he's heed the warning. Also, this forum is based on free speech. Besides he would just make another account.

Just edit the main post so it would link to the giveaway and contact a Global moderator to move it back.

Yeah, it's best to link to the giveaway.

All threads with giveaways belong in the Games and rounds subforum.

Mod note: Moved to Service discussion.

Do you understand what a proxy means? If TF updates the images, the proxy will update the image as well. Thus your argument is invalid.

His posts are considered useful, rather than just empty sentences like other's do it. At least that's what one of the global mods mentioned.

This forum is built on the ideas of free speech and a free market. If the mods started regulating it from scams, a lot of room for abuse would appear. Besides only avid +1'ers are banned, in most cases the post is just deleted.

He's posting with images since he cannot delete and edit his posts, but he can remove the source of the images. Regarding the account, maybe some rich troll bought it, you never know. A VIP status is worth quite the money.

His Inputs.io site was in a thread in Marketplace (Trust rating visible). As I already said in other threads and it was said by many other mods as well as the admin theymos, scams are not moderated. Use your head and the Trust system.

The VIP status indicates he donated money, it's only a certain thank you for doing so and no, it doesn't change anything, since no user is banned for possibly (or actually, we can't judge as mods since it's unmoderated) scamming.

If soemeone actually starts dealing with him, on the first PM sent (or the first post in marketplace) they will see his negative ratings.

Probably sold. His posts show a serious difference in language after the Inputs.io debacle.

The real one might be, the account is probably sold. And scammers aren't banned here, it's your duty to inspect and decide who's who and avoid the ones that you see as scammers.

Seems like a pretty good idea. Would cut down on the "+1, I agree, yes" spam posts that are still being tossed around, especially in the alt section.

Some posts that contain completely broken english (none of the mods or users understand what's written) are deleted. Can't really say specifically, but there was definetely one case that was discussed and it was decided to delete them.

See spammy posts? Report them. Bumps? See the Marketplace stickies, bumps are allowed on your own threads once every 24 hours and that thread is in a sub section of the Marketplace. Boy, you really should start reading stickies before accusing other people.

If you actually read the stickies, you'd know that only Alternate crypto giveaways were banned (and useless replies in crypto sections are looked upon much more strictly), not bitcoin ones. Also, no, it's registering for a sig program.

In most cases, yes. +1's in discussions are overall useless, spammy responses. Before becoming a mod, all +1's I reported in discussions were handled as good reports.

I determine quality by several aspects: does it provide an opinion, info, etc., how generic it is, how on topic that is, how many similiar replies are there, what section of the forum that is. I take tips and suggestions from other moderators and theymos, the admin. Also, don't flatter or victimize yourself, I (and possibly anyone) have absolutely no reason to pick on a random newbie. I noticed your spammy response while going through my regular procedure and checked out your post history for possible spam. And I wasn't mistaken.

Posting all the deleted responses would be spam as well since a few examples are enough. If a person makes a thread and starts posting random chars or overall low quality responses, he'll get his posts deleted like any other member posting in that thread. And yes, me and most of us here had at least a few responses deleted - none of us are perfect. Some more (like you), some less. That's how moderation works.

If these useless +1's and similiar responses were allowed, we'd be neck deep in thousands of pages containing these, overwheliming any worthwhile response that actually is interesting.

I deleted your posts. I was browsing through several threads and noticed a spam response from you thus I went through your post history. Here are the reasons:

Zero quality, no info given. Spam. Such responses can yield you a ban (replying to prohibited alt giveaways).

Replying to an encoragement to spam. Images of pandas isn't considered as a good post.

Plain +1's are deleted as well. Report them if you see them. Regarding the pic, again, low quality post/no info/clutter, only vaguely relates through the name to the coin.

Same as the previous one + overall offtopic.

Also, please stop posting them all. It's causing clutter. Report posts of similiar content although some mods handle some of the reports differently.

As the person above said, trust is not moderated (unless it's considered clutter/spam). As in the real world, if you ruin your reputation, you can't just make everyone forget.

Trust feedback is not moderated (with small exceptions when it's considered spam/clutter). Go do something good, some real trades and that negative won't look so bad.
