So if you use signatures for advertising, what are your suggestions for forum improvements in that area?
If we can tackle campaign managers, we have solved half of our problem so my suggestion goes like this. Before a user gets a privilege to manage a campaign he/she must have a past record of been meritef for quality posting e.g a Legendary member applying to be a campaign manager must have earned 50% of the current legendary merit requirement to be eligible to manage a campaign.i.e user must have earned 1500merit for equality posting. This will make then take their job seriously as they can lose the privilege. Secondly, there should be selected altcoin used for altcoin bounty campaign payment. I am against the idea of banning all altcoin bounty leaving only paid bitcoin signature. The forum has grow more than just bitcoin. I believe that's why we have grin as a payment option now. So this is my suggestion, every altcoin bounty should pay their participates in the token of the blockchain their project are developed on. Example, If your project is based on ETH or EOS blockchain and you want to run a bounty campaign participates will be paid in ETH or EOS and not your worthless token. I believe this will also have an impact as they got something to lose if shitposters are been paid.

You should visit technical boards more, there, members, regardless of their ranks, are doing a great job by posting very informative posts and answering newbies questions.
Thanks, when it comes to technical stuffs concerning bitcoin I'm just average that's why I have been ignoring the board, don't what to sound stupid on the board but since you have pointed that out to me. I'll visit board more often mainly to read through thread and perfect my understanding.

I actually feel that you are not in the right position to make up rules about negative feedback even though you rules are reasonable
This isn't a rule but a guide, I'm giving some guidelines to avoid giving of negative feedback wrongly from those new to the whole trust system to other users. I only concentrated on the negative aspect as it has more effect then the positive feedback when given wrongly. Beside everyone can give a feedback not just DT1/2 members Edit: No 8 and 9 reasons not to red tags an account have been added. The list will be updated regularly all thanks to replies on xtraelv post.

The biggest issue is the internet connection in Africa
In most African countries this isn't an issue any more. We now have internet services but where we have challenges is the cost of the internet service. For example I spend approximately $20 monthly for internet connection which doesn't last for that month and I live in one of the advance country in Africa now imagine what others are passing through 😢

Congrats mate I'm glad I remembered you of something. About your goals they look interesting and achievable and love the fact you'll be giving other lower users that their post get missed a chance to rank up through your giveaways. I did a thread on setting of goals if you haven't uploaded yours there, be my guest. Onces again congratulations we're the new generation of bitcointalkers 😂 Self-made full members next step Snr member.

Have you seen jet cash's personal messages on his profile? It reads Debt is slavery - fight the banksters therefore pay off your debt and hope for better future. there's is 50% chance of you been successful if you have achieved that before so you can always make your $100k back or even more. Clear your debt and start afresh. The best feeling a man can feel is knowing you're debt free and owe the banisters nothing.

So LoyceV you're in support from what I can understand that's great. Jet cash I know you're in too but it irritates you when we talk about merit, merit, merit so I'm sorry for that. There are still few legendary members contributing but the rest are just relax that's why I said lets bring in some competition knowing healthy competition are good for development & learning.
Both of you and few others are doing great though

All those thinking my second suggestion isn't the best option should note bitcointalk isn't the only cryptocurrency forum we have. And sometimes getting off social media is the solution to most of our problem.
From how OP wrote his topic, I suspected he is feed up with the forum and what to leave for good so I gave him the best option so he won't come back.

How about forgetting about merits and rank, and just start good and interesting threads. That way we can encourage them to share their knowledge, and to provide us with good help and advice.
They need motivation, just saying. Right now all I can see is 3-5 page of argument between themselves insulting each other apart from that the next comment you see are just one line replies on the other boards which most of them are either meaningless or something we already know. (although there are few ones really contributing) The new generation of bitcointalkers we need learn from their experiences they should up there games

The biggest/Largest obstacle to bitcoin adoption is the people. We the bitcoin community aren't ready to make bitcoin a global currency. Do you know bitcoin is been advertise as an asset instead of a curreny (which was the main intention for creation) each time the average individual hear about bitcoin it's always about the future gain, how people have made money from it etc. So he comes into the communities with an asset mind towards bitcoin. We have retailers, merchants, businesses men and women all in the crypto space but only few have sold something and receive bitcoin as a means of payment. If we all decide to start accepting bitcoin as a payment option in the little ways we can it'll make a big difference l did a topic on this few weeks ago title Bitcoin adoption: Don't just sit down, do somethingThe people have been so brainwashed that they now relies on the government for everything. We're waiting for one government to come and declare they now accept bitcoin but guess what that would never happen unless we take matters into our hands and start doing what I suggested above. The small things we do today will make a big difference tommorrow. Thank you
I'm glad I can now have conversations with you guys on the Ivory Tower board. I ranked up recently and this is my first post here. It feels good.

Hey before you continue reading this, I just one to point out to you that this topic is totally a joke don't take it that seriously.
These days, it looks like most Legendary members are a bit relax they don't tend to post much & most of their replies are just shot, one line and sometimes meaningless (no offends). And other times all they're interested in is DT1/DT2 aka trust system and scores
How about awaking their spirit by giving them a little challenge maybe it could be something like this.
1000Merit = Legendary 2000Merit = Diamond Legendary 3000merit = Silver Legendary 5000merit = Gold legendary
This ranks can be accompanied with some benefits or maybe just the bragging rights 😂
Maybe this will awaken them then we can differentiate those just enjoying the privilege of a early forum user and those with quality under their sleeves. Then they can get back to their old ways and maybe we learn one or two from the post they write.
Remember this is just a joke don't attack me please 😂

There's no option to delete your account from the system even the mods can't help you. the only option is to abandon it and move on. It's not possible. Just abandon it.
Do this: if you want your record to non exist on forum, Delete all the deletable post and edit the non deletable ones to trash and move them to archive board. Then change your password to something you can't remember, also change your email to an invalid email then abandon your account. That way you can't reactive your account and it'll be forgotten. Second option: Get yourself banned.

The administrators knows what's best for the forum. if they see any reason for a self moderated topic on meta board they'll implement it. Beside those were just suggestions by other forum users, the forum is open for suggestions that'll better it that's why we have the meta board. you can counter their suggestions and it's will be left for theymos to make his disscussion.

Do you know if some threads are already showing the new feature?
Yes it's now showing on all self-moderated topic, LoyceV was the first forum user to indicate he saw the notification on his self-moderated topic. I think he's the user that uses that feature the most so it was fair he was the first to notice it. I'll update here if it shows up. And there it is: (1 post by 1 user deleted.) Thanks theymos!

OP of that topic stated clearly, staking your bitcoin isn't a guarantee that you account would be recovered. The staking is just one of the many method/ process needed to prove you are the rightful owner of the account in question. In his words It's not 100% guaranteed that you'll get your account back, but it's a pretty good start. Of course, if your account is compromised, the hacker could just come back to this thread and edit/delete whatever address you post here, so that's why I'm asking people to quote the address posted by the preceding user in this thread.

PHI1618, I believe to get considered, you'll have to follow rules. Forget about much unnecessary burden on the page by quotes and do as the rules say. The quoting was added so it will be easier to read without visiting the original thread. If you want to be a merit source:
2. Collect TEN posts written in the last couple of months by other people that have not received nearly enough merit for how good they are, and post quotes for them all in a new Meta thread. The point of this is to demonstrate your ability to give out merit usefully.
Goodluck with your application. Thank you for your kind attention. I'm updating my application right now. I'm Glad you took my advice and added the quotes, your application now looks mature and I'm sure when theymos needs more merit source you'll be among the selected ones. +1merit, you earned my support.

Lol, this is the funnies post I have read this year. In OP's mind when creating this topic, he was writing one hell of a post that'll earn him the merits he thinks he deserve. I just checked user post history and he's a local/off-topic board poster. Could be someone suggested to him if he posts about merit on meta he'll get some. Lol 5activitiy =1 merit 😂 even those that receive the airdrop early last year didn't get that much

Here are some reason one shouldn't leave a negative feedback I highlighted on my post on the Beginners & Help board How not to use the negative feedback [1] Do not leave a negative feedback (red tag) a user for violating forum rules unless on rare occasions. source e.g Don't red tag a user for ban evasion, plaragism etc instead report user to appropriate authority (moderators) [2] Do not leave a false negative feedback, offenders might get red tag for this act if proving to be a false red tag. [3] Do not leave a negative feedback without reference (evidence) this will be seen as an accusation [4] Do not red tag a user for having alternative account unless the Alt account was bought or used for bad intentions like trust/merit abuse [5] Do not leave a negative feedback for disliking another user. [6] Don't turn leaving of negative feedback into a daily job or hobby, only do it when necessary. [7] Do not leave a negative feedback based on other people judgement (they could be wrong)
