Man, three and a half years is a very impressive time. I, too, once made a mistake, but the forum was merciful to me. I don't know your future. However, I see those new people who create new accounts week after week. And yet the forum allows them to do this since they are still alive.
I am not calling for breaking the rules, but I have a sincere doubt that people who are passionate about being on the forum will wait three and a half years. During this time, you can become another legend.
By no ways, I had any intentions to break any of the forum rules. Even before 2.5 years I received several comments that I was involved in alt farm, etc though these just were allegations which were never proved. I sincerly waited for 3.5 years and what I received in return were the same allegations.
I gave my
opinion almost three years ago. I haven't seen anything that would change my mind. At this time, it would make the most sense to allow you to create a new account and to agree that doing so would not violate the ban evasion rule.
Given the lack of action and the length of time since you opened this thread, I think it is unlikely that you will have your ban lifted.
Unfortunately, the admins and global moderators rarely comment on these types of threads, so I doubt you will get a response. The ban evasion rule is rarely enforced anyway, especially when the person is not causing major problems.
I don't want to violate the ban evasion rule even though it is rarely enforced. I have decided to be a loyal member of this forum and actively contribute for the betterment but not by creating any other account.
I would like to take chance even if my chances are not good of lifting ban. I've waited for 3 and half years and I will wait for even longer. I'm sure some or the other day, mods/admins might forgive me and allow me to get back onboard.
OP could have create another account and could make it a legendary account by this time frame without getting noticed by anyone. In an anonymous forum it should not be too hard to stay invisible.
Somewhere I saw few accounts were connected to GreatOrchid. I did not check the credibility but hoping it's not.
Given that this is the only account you have, waiting three and half years to get lifted for a ban and then coming back asking for forgiveness is very rare. It shows the love and passion you have for the account (I am not sure if the passion is same for the community but given the time you waited and coming back it cool).
I think if you should be given a chance.
This forum was the start of my career. I could never forget that. That makes me stand firm with my decision to get back on forum. No matter if I've waited for three and a half years. I will continue to do so until I've allowed to rejoin. I have not and will never create another account. By no ways, I will break any of the rules including ban evasion.
I have the same affection towards the community as I have for the forum. I want to give my best to contribute for the goodness of the community.
Hoping for the admins to allow me join with a signature ban.
The link to that thread is at the beginning of this thread, and I also posted it in my previous post, and it doesn't seem like the OP is innocent when he claims that this is the only account he owns. Too much of this indicates that he is part of an alt farm, and if one account gets permabanned, then all other accounts automatically get the same penalty.
Therefore, it should be clearly clarified here whether it is only about plagiarism or the OP cannot be unbanned because that would be ban evasion?
There are hundreds of thousands of users here. A single mistake can be done by hundreds but that dosen't mean we can corelate those and blame anyone of alt farming.
I clarify that I do not have any relation with these accounts by any ways. GreatOrchid & GreatOrchid_alt are the only accounts I handle.
There have been serious allegations against me from the time I opened this thread but those have not yet been proven. Three and a half years and those allegations still remain allegations only.
It is also clearly mentioned in the warning I receive on my account about me getting banned due to plagarism only. Plagarism is a crime over here but it should also be given a chance. I'm ready to prove myself with a permanent signature ban.
Oh yea, I remember this thread. I thought they were all suspicious because there was a very similar 1 minute gap between their application to the signature campaign and they all made the same mistake in the personal text because the owner was trying to change accounts so fast he or she didn't notice it.
After a while I was sure that all were controlled by one person and were all hacked accounts that used to post in different languages, had a gap in their posts, woke up around the same time and came to the same signature campaign at the same exact time, with the same mistake in their personal text.
OP denies claims that he or she was ever a part of this group, so let me ask this
Are you the only person who used this account since 2014?
When I made the thread about your group, you did not say anything and ignored it, but you obviously saw it because you deleted the evidence that were your posts in the OneHash campaign thread.
You even tried to reapply later in the campaign, got denied and deleted the post. It survived only because it was quoted.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2020019.msg48314817#msg48314817Why did you delete them knowing the accusation was false and being able to prove there's no connection between the accounts?
It's really strange that these separate individuals who somehow woke up their accounts on the same date, came to the same campaign, wrote with a 1 minute gap from each other and made the same mistake in the personal text, saw that someone accused them of being linked and did nothing. Instead of countering the accusation, they all deleted their posts and even, in some cases, stopped posting.
Much of the answers to Lucius are applicable here.
I've researched the other account you are trying to connect with mine. Those can easily be spotted with language change, verbal changes, etc but can you really spot it with my account?
I'm not sure if those other accounts are hacked but I am damn sure I am the single owner of my account GreatOrchid from the year 2014. I didn't see any credibility that time and also there were a few allegations coming up so I ignored the thread thinking I would never get back on forum with such serious allegations with are never proven. It kind of disappointed me. No matter how loyal I be, at the end I'm blamed with such accusations which clearly are false. Even today I am replying that these accusations are false but at the bottom of my heart I know no-one would care and would leave me at the current situation with a permanent ban.
My only affection towards the forum forces me to appeal again and again to see if the admins can be soft hearted to forgive me and give me a chance again.
Four Hero, one Legendary five accounts!
If the investigation is true then there will be more two to three accounts. Safe to say all together five accounts. $60/w from each account $300/w. On average 25 posts per week. That's 125 posts. It seems better than a full time job. I am not saying it a bad idea but how it's possible? 😂
The forum is a cash cow LOL
It indeed seems better than a full-time job but I'm not the one involved in it.
If every I though the same than I wouldn't appeal with a permanent signature ban. Signature is the only space allowing to earn a stream of income which I clearly don't want to be a part of.
It will be interesting to see if those accounts had any discussions together, owning so many accounts it's easy to create conversations between them and make those posts counts per week quite quickly. In addition it will be just another nail in the coffin of the "I have only one account" statement.
I myself will dig in more info about any such conversations. I was not involved with these accounts. How can I prove it? The allegations are getting such serious that it might take my life proving these are false.
I would still say
"I have only one account." with a fullstop.
OP should at least try to explain whether he is related to other accounts in any way. There are too many coincidences to dismiss this evidence.
I'm really tired of explaining myself. No matter how hard I explain myself, I would always be dumped into false accusations. There is no strong evidence yet my reputation is damaged entirely.
