I came across a very curious case
Mercatox allows you to buy and sell over 100 cryptocurrencies. It gives you access to a multi-currency e-wallet and a wide range of currency pairs.
How to register on Mercatox
To begin with, you need to create your Mercatox account. Go to Mercatox. You will see the following picture:

User written a plagarized post at "November 13, 2018, 07:38:40 AM".
Ironically written one more post afterwards emphasizing about forum rules at "November 13, 2018, 09:52:41 PM"
I have observed and seen the lamentation of most newbies who have being ban from the forum due to uncompliance to strictly adhered rules on the forum.
The question is as experience as we are, what should we do to support newbies so as to imbibe them in the knowledge of how to stay alive on the forum?
unfortunately got merited at "November 14, 2018, 07:30:39 AM" but fortunately banned now.
This raises below question on my mind.
1. Are all these newbies are really newbies? or they are banned plagiarist that are coming back again and again?
2. They know the rule but they break it because newbie is a throw way account and with all they tactics they might get lucky with 1 Merit.
3. Are'nt these plagiarist newbies are making life of genuine newbies more difficult?
My Suggestion:
1.At least check bpip to see if user is autobanned before giving Merit.
2. Do check the previous post and topic because proof that user is plagiarizing is already provided at "November 13, 2018, 10:42:51 PM" at below post.
I do not know how much Theymos will like, but I think we should remove Offtopic, Meta , Altcoin discussion board , Politics and society or any board not related to bitcoin stop giving any activity. You will get activity only on BTC related boards when you ask or post something sensible.
We might take a small fee while registering in this forum as newbie fee and those who still not able to pay that fees, might we create a guest board where they can still ask their questions.
