Moderators don't just act based on the fact that a thread has been reported.
Did you even read my reply and understood it? What's the difference between your reply and mine? @CryptopreneurBrainboss, I'm guessing that post is in favour of my suggestion although it's a tad confusing.
Sorry for that, let me clear myself. I'm in support of the suggestion of having a guidelines and it should also include "reason posts can be reported for moving". What I was trying to say is that, the problem we're having on the board is those reporting the post. A user can start a thread and it can be fitted in two different board. Now when such a Post gets report moderators acts on a 50-50 percentage chance and most time the post gets moved to the other board. Example: The thread discussing trading altcoins as a beginner can fit in both B&H and altcoin board. When such a post is reported the comment associated with the report can play a big role in moderators decision since it's a 50/50 report not forgetting moderators aren't bots they're humans.

However, another punishment, like red tags might be good.
Best option will be a neutral tag instead of red tag because in the first place, the trust system was introduced for trust feedbacks not as punishment for breaking forum rules. You can report a post if you feel the excessively quoting have turned the post into a spam and moderators will look into the report.

Here's an advice buddy if you have free 17smerit visit my UPDATED [01/02/2019]: List of Active Merit Giveaways threads. and search through already existing giveaways from other users and merit post of those you feel as quality posting. That way you'll be doing more good to the users that have already applied but aren't getting the merits. I suggested this because I have notice the participants are using the same post link to apply in multiple thread which can be considered as a form of spam. You can help reduce this by doing as I suggested above.

Although we've only been a Full Member recently, but I would like to know how's our progress back then. As of now we have the same no. of Merits, it will be a short time before he passed mine ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) In fact he's a good poster than me. Cryptopreneurbrainboss vs cabalism13 Thanks mate ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I'm not bro, am just an average poster check my record beside you're doing great than I am, so it's not a competition. The PM you sent me made me feel like I was robbing you of something. It doesn't matter who gets to snr member first the final goal is legendary. So please don't make it a competition. We're both doing great 😀 Just sent you +1merit so you can have some rest as you'll now be above me @ 160merits.

Ever since I indicated interest of returning to my old way of reporting post I feel deserve merits I haven't seen any so i thought about giving my post a try. Here it goes, [Infographic]: Guide on possible reasons to leave a -ve/+ve trust feedbacks.Description : Giving newbie an unofficial guidelines on leaving trust feedbacks. Category : {guide, opinion.} Section : Beginners & Help Post is welcome to constructive criticism

Here is where the problem is coming from, those reporting the threads are at fault. B&H don't have any active moderator if they do almost all post on the board would had been moved to other boards. The moderators acts based on the comments accompanying the reported threads. In the case of jet cash thread although it had a little price speculation in the topic it was more of a benefit to newbie since the thread offered merit and a interesting discussion based on their opinions but I believe the reason it was moved was due to the reporters comment and moderators after reviewing the thread saw some truth in the comments.
I believe this topics are getting moved because they're been reported.

Fact: what keeps a board active is the fact signatures display are been allowed and merit circulation is at its peak.
The Ivory Tower and serious discussion board aren't that active like other board so I doubt this clubroom will become a success although I love the idea and I'll say lets give it a try. Any suggestion that'll bring in positive development are always welcome but what are the topic going to be discussed there that can't be discussed currently on serious discussion and Ivory tower board? Or it's going to be like a shrine to go seek wisdom from the 12-13 legendary members 😂

You quoted the wrong guy, haha.
Thanks mate, I just corrected my mistake. The forum did not do this right. They should have provided option for blocking some type of signatures not blocking all signatures in general.
This is where the usefulness of talented or skillful forum users comes to play. We have scripts you can install and it'll blocked selected signatures based on the sittings. The forum gave a direct solution of blocking all signature because allowing some and blocking other will look like an endorsement.

Thanks for that link, and I wish there was more reporting in this thread.
I know I was one of the active users (if not the most active user) few months back reporting posts I felt deserve merit then I got about 20smerit to merit others (although now am out) I stopped reporting because when I see worthy posts I merit them but can't report since the rules says. Rules Post a link to a good post without Merit.
I saw that post Coolcryptovator reported from B&H because I'm active there but again the rule above was the reason I didn't report it. Maybe the rule has to be change so we can report posts even after we merit them or report post's without enough merits. Although from his report I now know it's ok to report already merited posts but other users won't from the rule. So I suggest it should be updated.

Please give me link to the topic of Jet Cash and some brief descriptions about the contest, merit reward rates, and rules of challenge.
For future reference, I won't post links in update. you have to check OP for them. I decided to make the description short so it won't take up space. If you need rules, guidelines etc you'll have to visit the thread through the link and you'll get all you want. I only provide the basic/necessary requirements. UPDATE:Jet cash locked his lastest merit challenge after he discovered it got moved from the B&H board. For more on this read " I locked my beginners price discussion thread".

My full concern is the BPIP, although profiles are being updated from time to time but that User isn't appearing on the site.
This shouldn't disturb you, just know the BPIP project isn't affiliated with bitcointalk. So anything related to it should be addressed to the site owned either through pm or on his project Announcement thread. The platform displaces wrong informations sometimes like saying I have recieve just 140merits etc. This shouldn't bother us and isn't worth creating a thread on meta for.

Although I was very active on the B&H board it was on ignore without my concept. I just un-ignored the board and everything went back to normal. Thanks LoyceV and others.

Do you have the board on ignore?
I don't think so, I'm a constant poster on B&H let me look through my settings and get back to you. But could that be the cause?

I was about replying a thread and needed a quote from a previous thread I read as source. Good thing I merited that reply so I opened my merit history so I can search for that reply but I notice something different. (view image) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FTp8bJbn.jpg&t=663&c=-wGSz8bn9x8cbQ) I don't understand why I'm seeing this because I don't have those users on ignore and neither have their posts I merited been deleted. Why am I seeing this?

Sir, i am Indonesian and i can not sure you my english is good but because my english grammar mistake, i am breaking the rules?
Nope you were not tagged because you broke any rule if you break rules you'll be banned. Your account was tagged by DT's because it has change of hands (ownership) written all over it. Read this reply to understand more. After you applied to join a signature campaign you started posting in english again but this time the english isn't the same like your previous ones. The tag is just as a warning as this account can't be trusted but you're free to continue posting in forum.

You just registered 2 days back and you want to vote DT members?
Don't be surprise when you see comments like that from newly created account. They're all alternative account. The user might be using his main account to view this topic and possible laughing. This user is just seeking attention, I don't think this topic has anything useful to offer. It isn't worth our time.

I am guilty on red tagging plagiarism. But, I have my reasons on doing it and of course I reported them.
I believe you brought my previous topic in here because I have locked that thread. I don't like having similar threads open that's why I locked that one. sorry for the inconvenience. Back to reply, The trust system isn't moderated and you're free to not trust someone for whatever reason but when it comes to some offends there are better solutions e.g ban evasion is a violation of forum rules so should be reported to moderators. There is no need for red trust for rule violations except perhaps in rare cases, for example someone is spreading malware while moderators are asleep - you might want to put a warning on user's account until they get banned.
I understand your reason, you have experience and I'm sure isn't all defaulter you red tags but selected ones. Although I'm just informing newbies so they don't think it's appropriate to do so.

For those cases, I known it well. In another topic, it is well known that there are several local moderators who can wear avatar, even when they are still newbies. It's not a bug of forum, at all.. You are wrong!
So what you're trying to tell me is that everybody wearing avatar that are not full member rank above are moderators? I don't think so. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) some users their account were created before the new Avatar rule was implemented can still wear their avatar irrespective of their ranks as in the past all ranks can wear avatar. The users wearing avatar and their account were created in 2018 which aren't moderators there isn't an official statement on why they can wear those avatar, So we have two low ranked accounts with avatars which is logically impossible since they both joined after the merit system has been introduced. Also LoyceV noticed this: Do you have any idea why your profile says you have 0 posts, and your post history shows 3 posts? It seems to be a glitch in the forum software. this is why i said it's a bug until we get an explanation why those accounts can wear avatar. Good information. So i need to be Full Member before having profile picture feature?
yeap, you have too two options: - Making your efforts and self-promoting to a Full Member; - Buying a Copper Membership, will give some priveledges, except wearing avatar. You're still wrong. The user isn't asking for image in post, he's asking for profile picture (avatar) therefore he only has one option for now which is to rank up to full memeber.
