Se que no tiene mucho que ver con el planteamiento de realizar transacciones ahora, como plantes; pero crees que habría/existe algún indicador para "adivinar" cuando pueden llegar estos momentos de poco volumen tomando el Mempool de un nodo de core en ese momento? O son cosas independientes?

There you have it, if they haven't broken the rules then they don't deserve to be banned, voting to ban a user is a terrible idea , simply because post quality is pretty subjective, a simple example is the WO thread, many people would think that the majority of the posts there are spam/worthless but people do earn all kind of merit for such posts, which means other people view them as  deserving content.

Voting has proven itself to be a drama-maker, the trust system drama went to ATH once Theymos introduced the voting system, let alone voting to ban a user, maybe everyone should come to realize that this forum or any other forum can't be sustain without the variation of content quality, this is not github - it's bitcointalk forum, it must have all different types of users and they are all welcome to post as long as they stay within a reasonable level of shitposting and don't break the rules.

I quote your reply because it's the first one; but I think my point has been misunderstood or maybe I didn't explain in an ordered way. I'm not saying that people should be judge by their post quality; but rather for their actions. I know there are threads I don't understand, with good replies that make no sense to me, but nevertheless, they are useful for other people. Of course content is updated; this is a forum after all, so that's why I think I've not explained myself pretty well.



You can vote with the "Ignore" thingy. It's actually better than a ban - sort of like "shadowban" feature available on other forums. The user can still post and they don't know that their posts are not visible to others. As opposed to getting banned and creating a new account. The only problem is to get more users to use "Ignore".

I'm aware; and have some users there. But me not liking how someone writes/feeling it's complete BS, is not the point of the suggestion



Voting against freedom of speech? I sure hope theymos will never implement that, even for the users I completely disagree with.

That's actually quite the opposite of what I'm proposing. I'm in favour of freedom of speech; but I think that there has to be some limit to it; one of the most current/modern fascist argument is actually freedom of speech. They claim to have the right to spread hate and other stuff; but that's not actually freedom of speech. I recall some paradox on the topic....

Quote
The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually seized or destroyed by the intolerant.



Your suggestion of users coming together and 'arranging' for another user to be banned is not the way it should go and is pretty controversial. It is like oppressing a different view on things. The 30 of us 'arrange' for you to get banned because we don't like you even if you didn't break any rules.

This would be some kind of "extreme resource"; not just throwing accusations and requesting to ban a user because of a different oppinion. As with everything, a system can be good, but if abused; it can be the worst thing ever created. Since the DT uptade I consider most DT users I've seen active to be quite sensible and fair; and that's why I put a "high" number of said users as "judges". Besides; that's wxactly why it's a suggestion. I had an idea, I thought it could be a good system if used with responsibility; and now I share that thought. Life would be just boring if everyone agreed, so I don't think people would be elegible for a "ban-hearing" just because of a different approach to a topic.



Your proposal is stupid. It only seems a sensible proposal to those as low functioning as yourself. You see the problems is very simple. A "useless" post to a person who is thick-as-shit (such as yourself) is likely a HIGHLY VALUABLE contribution to those that have the ability to understand the relevant and on topic valid and independently verifiable points that posters such as ourselves are capable of making.

First line and you are already insulting to prove your point. Surprinsingly, I happen to agree with the second part of the sentence: what is not useful for me can be to someone else; but that was not the point of my OP. 

you hope may shart some merit into your eager face so that you can spam your sig for a slightly higher rate.

I've had to check this one; I have not participated in a Sig Camp since the Waves campaign, which was 2 years ago! I also haven't applied to any other sig camp since said time aprox.

Using DT as some kind of "must be correct" benchmark is not going to wash around here after the flagrant abuse of the trust system for so long, their OWN observable dirty histories in many cases and the fact one by one they are requesting to leave so their behaviors are not under such scrutiny.

I believe that current DT (updated a month and something ago) combined with merit system does actually have a "must be correct benchmark" function. People are trusted for a reason, or at least where I come from, trust is something you earn.

People complaining about retaliatory feedback better make sure they have not used "feedback" as their own kind of retaliation for simply not winning an argument on thread or not appreciating someones opinion that they could not debunk. Or to try and silence whistle blowing.

Please, point me a single trust I've sent as retaliation

The trust system is to warn people about direct financial risk and danger ONLY. If you use it for any other reason then you can not moan about getting retaliatory feedback without demonstrating clear double standards.

Neutral trust can in fact be used for other kind of "alerts"

1708  Other / Meta / [Proposal] What to do with hardcore spammers/scammers/shitposters? on: July 13, 2019, 09:25:53 PM
As we all may be aware of, there are certains accounts in the forum that are.... a huge pain in the ass (to say the least). To bring an example, the recent "situation" with game-protect (flag thread here, and negative trust retaliation here).

To simplify this; a well know spammer/"almost scammer" has received a flag, and made some negative trust retaliation; which is quite useless, but has also been spamming threads created by people supporting the flag. Mods have deleted most/all of the spam replies, but that doesn't feel like enough (for many).

Now, this is a recent example, in which I got a bit caught, but there are many other cases out there (personally, I'd add The-One-Above-All to the list; who is on many peoples' ignore list as an example, because of his constant useless replies), and I'm sure a longer list could be created, but I don't think it's neccessary for this.

After giving it some thought; I believe I've reached something that could be considered a solution: the same way some global moderators/admins can perma-ban users for X reasons; there could be a system to vote on some users that despite not being actually breaking rule forums enough to be perma-banned (example of GP getting posts deleted and nothing else), they are well known to be some kind of "cancer" (maybe the word is too hard, but it's late night and I cannot come up with something better) and in case some kind of agreement is reached; said user could get perma-banned. I'll further explain:



Say I've been posting shit for the last year and scamming people and doing some nasty stuff, enough to have my account veeery very red painted; but as I would technically not have broken any forum rule, I'd still be able to do the nasty stuff here.

But, the nasty stuff I've been doing is so nasty; that at least 30 DT1 people would support my perma-ban (some more thought has to be given to this, since DT2 and non-DT users should also have a saying). Then; like with the flag system, someone could create a thread saying: "Let's perma-ban Csmiami/ Csmiami should be expelled from the forum" or something similar.

In the thread, similar to flag system, all the adecuate information on why that should happen should be provided. Since it's some serious thing, the user in question would receive an email/PM notification, in order to be able to defend his stay on the forum. And on the trust/somewhere over the user profile page; a little window to provide your vote.

I have not said 30 DT1 members randomly before; I consider it something difficult that 30 people agree on something; judging by how responsible some/most of those members are. But, since it's just a rough idea, that could be modified.


Believing I've writen everything that came to my mind; I'll edit if I can think of something more
1709  Economy / Reputation / Re: game-protect gone mad on: July 13, 2019, 05:42:45 PM
The border was crossed, time to take responsibility!

If I recall correctly; you did indeed encourage us to support the flag

I already received the highest trust rating someone can get on bitcointalk and thanks a lot to the community. Smiley

I think it is a good idea to give flags to show to the community that someone is not a scammer:

Get 5 BTC for proof who Game Protect scammed and for how much?

Since 3,5 years active and no scam so far. Wink

It's quite hard for me to understand why you are so mad about that now; but whatever

You do have red trust. If you click Trust, it tells you why.

Also, this doesn't belong in Meta, move it to Reputation.
Can you tell me how to move post? I would be glad if you show me how

On the lower left side of your screen you should see 2 options: move topic and lock topic.

You click on "move topic", and from there you can choose to which board you want to move it

In this case, it would be https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=129.0 aka Reputation

1713  Other / Meta / Re: How can i get Merit? on: July 12, 2019, 08:05:12 PM

Seriously? I hope this irrational judgement isn't a reflection of the rest of the community here. They (singular) posted nowhere about giveaways, or signups to giveaways, instead they posted twice in 2018 before returning. Firstly asking how to securely store digital coins. Here is their first post, since it seems you presumably didn't even bother to check their post history.

The second post was thanking a user for a useful answer to their question. Their 3rd and 4th posts are in this thread. Why so judgemental?
It looks like you're simply insulting a hodler to me, not a shitposter.


I know I sometimes take a bit of a draconian approach to some posts (not neccesarily newbies), but that does mean not that it's an irrational judgement, as you say. In my case, it comes from my own past with the forum: I came here for the money; but stayed for the technology. During that time of mine where I was only interested in making some quick cash (I believe my first 3/7 pages on post history), but as time has gone on, I have even been embarrased because of that (not that it matters, since it's the past. I have seen what people doing stuff just for money make to the forum, mostly because I've been there, done that.

Yes, I did check the post history, and BPIP; and I saw an old account, that woke up un February 2019, and has ever since made 4 posts. Half of those, are on a thread on how to earn merit; which in my oppinion, if the user had browsed the forum and read the stickies, s/he would know how activity and merit system work. There could still be some doubt though; as with the activity update periods (took me a long while to understand them) or any other stuff, but asking "How can I get Merit?" looks like a very poor interest on the forum itself (ignoring stickies).

I see your point, I and I agree with it; there is a long road between welcoming newbies and paving the way for spammers.


I`ll give you another merit if you move this post to meta discussion because that is where it belongs. (bottom left of page)
I can see exactly why they might of posted in Beginners section: to avoid any hostility from the meta section.

Agreed, I rarely surf B&H section; and when I see a thread with a title being so obvious and with an answer that has been said thousands of times; I simply ignore it (maybe not the best course of action, but people please do a bit of research). I was just surprised to see this question in meta, and I guess I snapped a bit. This time it was me; but it could've been another user.
1714  Other / Meta / Re: How can i get Merit? on: July 12, 2019, 05:08:48 PM
They are still new to this forum, even if they've been registered for over a year surely? Their rank is still newbie, hence they are new.

Or his/her post quality is low because s/he is interested in bounty campaigns, giveaways and other shitcoin related stuff, and is now aware that some rank is required for most of those.

There are only 4 posts, so it's hard to tell, but again, having only 4 posts after a year, shows that little interest has been put into the forum. In that case, you would be right: the person is a complete newbie

Ahora, si, o no me había fijado o he visto pocas fotos de cajeros BTC como este, es muy llamativo, estaba acostumbrado a ver los típicos de siempre, me da que va a tener mucha clientela.

Si fuese en una zona (más) transitada; tal vez, pero estamos hablando de que lo han colocado en la primera planta de un centro comercial en el que han cerrado un wok, tiendas de chinos e incluso un burger king! Shocked Lo único "atractivo" en esa planta además, es un New Yorker...... y una especie de gimnasio de artes marciales que han abierto hace no mucho; por lo demás, toda la planta está cerrada.

La solución que tiene es editarlas y reducir el tamaño, en imgur creo que solo puedes recortar la imagen no reducirla, editarlas le llevara un poco de trabajo pero el post le quedara mucho mejor.

Al final a golpe de pantallazo--Paint, se ve que quedan de tamaño reducido. Lo malo es que de espacio, son algo más grandes

Y me gustaría agregar una observación para el colega Csmiami, cuando agregas imágenes a una publicación, debes estar seguro que el enlace contenga la extención .jpg o .png, en tus imagenes las agregas como:

https://imgur.com/Rc76GuJ cuando debería de ser https://i.imgur.com/Rc76GuJ.jpg... Para obtener el enlace desde imgur da click derecho y ver imagen, asi no tendrás problemas al agregar imágenes a tus publicaciones  Wink

Negativo; si le das a "quote", verás que los BBcode de las imágenes llevan la extensión .jpg

El foro introdujo hace no mucho una limitación de creo que 2 MB en archivos de imagen, por lo que cualquier cosa superior a eso no pasa el proxy

Yeah, I'm aware I was only kidding with a bit of Human Rights drama. The only hardware that it's sole porpuse is to be used for the forum would be the server; in case theymos has one at home/bunker/safe location. I don't think anyone buys a phone/desktop/laptop just to access BTT, so we are going a bit off-topic if we start taking into account the electricity/carbon fingerprint (I believe it's said that way in English?) that users spend while accessing the forum
1720  Other / Archival / Re: Eco review of bitcointalk ! on: July 11, 2019, 09:06:22 AM

Don't forget that many users only access the forum from their mobile phones, which puts some kind of electricity consumption balance I guess.
It will be interesting to see some statistics how many people read the forum from their mobile devices. I know theymos will not keep such information but.. I'm mostly on mobile, during working hours I'm using TOR Smiley

And all the pollution and child labor that goes in the mines where the main metals of which batteries and motherboards are extracted (and made) from
