From this thread where theymos brought up the self moderated topic option Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152876.0

You would say it was to was to effect positively the reply a post that is self moderated can get. But IMO(stand to be corrected) I don't think at that scam and fraud on the part of the OP was in major consideration.  It was just to create a healthy thread for the OP who has the ultimate power in the thread.
As the forum was then is not the same as it is now. We get to see more members with scam intentions and that option is like giving them a leverage to carry out there activities.
Although the intents of the self moderated topic option is good, If it can be looked into and some little changes made in some areas. Then it would be very much guided

You just made an error here mate. Am guessing you wanted to quote the other guy@harizen. When quoting after you must have pressed the quote button write your message underneath that quote in bracket at the bottom.

Your goals has gotten my attention, transparency should be a standard for gambling site and so many site out there  gives regard to it, fairness should be the watch word.
As a gambler am averagely impressed at this point but still a whole lot of work is needed, as an investor I would say you guys should work in your publicity try getting your project out to the world this would give investors the confidence to partner with you guys

Then about trading, you must have good idea about it before getting involved, don't be deceived it's not a fast way to make money project. Do a good reading and research
This book would kick start your learning process about trading.

But also be observant about scams in the cryptocurrency world

  The newbie stage is a foundational stage for everyone and everyone currently in the forum has been at that stage at a certain time here. This stage can to a large extent determine the nature of member you would be in future here in the forum.
  It's an eye sore when seeing a newbie make post that he/she barely knows about,

         Benefits of asking questions
1. To learn: although learning process is endless but the process should be at its peak at the beginners level. There can't be a complete learning without asking questions, as a newbie it's believe that the whole area should be some what new to you. And you can familiarise your self by asking questions( don't be shy about how it's going to be taken by others), your a newbie and not so much is expected from you at that stage.

2. To avoid breaking the rules: in recent time here the massive ban wave was felt by everyone even grey hair members felt the heat as well, they mostly err from activities they did at a lower rank stages which came back to hunt them, so now as a newbie you can avoid the mistake they made but asking questions about the rule of the forum. Here is the rule
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0
And if you go through it and it's still not clear always feel free to ask questions (the embarrassment of asking a question that seems so easy to decipher is better than breaking the rules)

3. Makes you a better poster: After you must have inculcated the habit of asking questions in you and have gained knowledge about things you weren't familiar with, this would help improve you as a person and a poster. You also get to increase in rank by making good post and getting the needed merits and activities.Your post quality would at least be at an average level and you can also be of help to others.

4. Improve your confidence: this might sound little but never play down the value of confidence. This is a forum and it consist of different people some of which are hot tempered and make a meal out of someone that makes a low quality post which makes them to either give up the forum or stay mute. But after series of seeking knowledge through asking questions(it could be a pm or post) you confidence level increase you get to have a say in threads with out having any inferiority complex.

In addition here is a thread about terminology in cryptocurrency and the forum, so it doesn't confuse you when used

Edited:  learn how to browse the internet or seek some information from it.

Did a check on your post history and discovered that the post was probably moved because it was not befitting for the board you initially posted it. and you have made a comment on that very post after this your topic here.
You have like five post and majority of which is about the same topic.
As a former newbie as you are now I would advice you focus your attention more on other things( the issue of Craig's is not of utmost importance).
Get to know the forum more read the rules, pinned messages more often(you would probably have not made this post if you had). Scams are everywhere and every newbie should seek every ways to protect themselves.
Improve you posting(stop redundant one-line post).

OP denoting from your price it's state that you can cash out to get gamer gears and stuffs related to the game IMO it's more like a game than a gamble and correct me if am wrong am still at the gambling board and the forum has a gaming site where this product Can be published.
Also am not the gaming type and would not place my earning on things a contestant can get a knowledge of cheats to overcome there contender

I can see a potential good contributor in you. Just keep following this part you are treading and you would do little wrong. No only can you get great understand from reading previous post you can also learn from mistakes and potentially avoiding them in the future.
I gave you a merit for motivation. And again you are welcome to the forum

I really am not a professional or the technical type of person. But I have made post that are targeted toward reaching out to newcomers or those in confusion about basic and not too complicated issues from the knowledge I have gotten from my stay here.

It's weird how you try to complain about a claimed injustice And in the same manner trying to defend something that's wrong.
The forum under the administration of theymos upheld the rules with out regard to reputations which for no reason should be down played by anyone.
And before laying accusations(stating that such moon dug into someone history) there should be some fact or else it would be elusive and a false accusations which is wrong

At some point if you observant there are trending topics/discussions on meta section.
It can range from merit discussion, dt discussion etc so if you suggest ban appeal section should they also be boards for trending topics also?
Here is the meta board and it meant to serve as a section for discussing issues as regards to the forum ban appeal is one of those issues(although some people misuse it). But suggesting a board for ban appeal is unnecessary

I would want the OP to see it this way. You cannot keep something hidden in a public forum, if you are advocating that they should remove the ban form display because(as some of your reasons implies) of some people might get trolled.

Should they also remove trust rate from showing because people will troll you for getting negative trust and some also troll for getting positive trust(they say he/she doesn't deserve it or might have gotten it from a click).

Or also should they remove merit count from displaying because people can also troll you for it when you don't have any merit you can get trolled and even when you do have can also still get trolled.
 
The forum is more concerned about upholding transparency than giving in to trolls, injustice, reputation of members etc. 
So I ask you is that not the right thing to do(even after been lenient)

I guessed it's the same person from his previous post before his second coming you can still notice that he was very much interested in selling his services out probably his was not being patronize then or his service where not what he says they where and he got frustrated and dived into other site, sources, social media still with the same intent after some years decides to come back to the forum after he must have established several account in other social media platform(seeing bounty does social media campaign) and he is back still selling his service but this time with out even considering if he is spamming or doing the wrong thing.

Ps: If I where a hacker I would not hack a junior member account with so little quality post as he had

I have also been helpful to the forum community with some of my posts

It's a good thing to know your trust list but it not necessary to make a post about it. It's so long and give out a bit of dizziness to its readers. Am guessing it would create a spam if everyone follow this part you followed.

Do you just use this video where a lunatic fringe hits Arnold Schwarzenegger as a basics to raise a topic to describe Africans. We see people (both black or white)attack superstars and celebrities some on stage, football pitch, movie set etc.
That video is of no significant and from what the guy was shouting you would know he is either a lunatic or someone seeking fame or popularity knowing his action  would go viral.
And beside we all need help no man is an island we all need some one for a collective universal growth no matter our race

I heard the guy saying help me I need a Lamborghini, help me I need a Lamborghini.
Guessed he saw bitcoin rising and wanted to find out from Arnold Schwarzenegger when lambo

Rules or no rules, signature or no signature,  spam and unhealthy poster would still make there ill sort of post.  Even some that can not get one merit to rank up to the level of wearing a signature still constantly make redundant post. So the aim should be tackling the Shit posters and Shit post. How can that be done?  Well for now one good way, and majority knows(but don't execute it) by now is to use the report to the mods button at the bottom of a post or reply, yes if we can effectively do this with out been bias or trolling this can really help to tackle spam post until more measures are put it place

Like you rightful said you are a newbie and there is a reason why you can not restrictions to you being able to pm other ranking member one of the reasons could be probably that you are still learning and should be more interested in getting your self enlightened. There have been people here already that has good bag of experience here and outside this forum in terms of gambling would you not rather bet on them being more qualified than yourself?
There is time for everything even if you are a pro in gambling you not a pro here so take time an grow organically here then you can proudly sell your services
