Just wanted to reference this here so I can link to it. The following four accounts are all adding invisible junk to their posts in what I'm assuming is an attempt to get around the 75 character minimum character count of the Coinomat campaign thus cheating it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=140741 catena5260 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=359284 (Lithium) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=337394 svein https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=255797 Malin Keshar Tampa Bay 2 Chicago 4

Quote them and you get this: [quote author=(Lithium) link=topic=828984.msg11605431#msg11605431 date=1434167212] Tampa Bay 2 Chicago 4 [size=1pt][color=yellow] sdas çkda çlkd lçadjalkcjldjlkaj kladj alk[/color][/size]

It seems that the "bot" to count posts is not so good after all. I wonder if these posts are being made by a bot
Maybe this is an inside job

If it is not a bot, they must be alts of the same person.

additional information: Coinomat.com (he manages his own campaign) promised that the bot will work properly by tomorrow, so we probably won't see any of that next week --
by the way, are you sure they deserve a -ve just for that?

They obviously are the same person. Think there's another that belongs to them but on a different campaign so no need to add the extra junk.

The fact that they are using random characters makes me believe it is a bot. They clearly are trying to post quickly in order to increase their post count so in theory they would just type random buttons on their keyboard to have their posts meet the 75 character minimum, however some of the small characters would require a certain keyboard command in order to be displayed.

They're probably just copying and pasting the extra stuff to be honest.

This seems clever. But yes its cheating the campaign. I don't even know there is bot for this kind of thing Using a bot is a very bad thing, because the others trying hard to make constructive posts. But this person do it with cheating There doesn't have to be a bot for it. They could just randomly type things at the end and get to the word count required. This way they don't have to drag on to their normal text. So, It means that this 3 users controlled by a same person. Having multiple accounts is not the problem. Even if they are alts it shouldn't matter . All accounts have got the negative trust from hilariousandco .

This is debatable. I would have thought a ban is more likely / justified than negative trust.

Yes. They're cheating money out from a signature campaign which is dishonest. by the way, are you sure they deserve a -ve just for that?
This is debatable. I would have thought a ban is more likely / justified than negative trust. What forum rule are they breaking? Spamming. Half of the posts are just crap in the giveaways threads and the others aren't up to much.

Marcotheminer himself making more than one post where one post is sufficient. I saw he got 3 loan request when he saw those three requests he quoted each request and Sorry denied, Denied, sorry but denied. Awesome guy made a signature bot to scam bit-x.

That isn't relevant to this thread. Report the posts if you feel they're breaking the rules. Double/triple posts would normally be removed if they should/could be made in just one.

I think his point is that his bot makes it too easy to scam the site that is buying member's signature space. I think this is a good example as to why counting posts should not be automated
