There is some insane guy that has been creating new accounts and posting about how BTC is dead and how everyone needs to sell for what seems like years now, example, just now:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1251359.0

The mods are pretty quick and deleting this garbage but sometimes they aren't around and I've seen like 5 threads at the same time or more by this guy.

Does the forum ban by IP?
I believe so.

It's no deterrent though as these people are computer literate & can use a VPN or even Tor to sign back up with new troll accounts again & again & again & again.........

*if they pay..



also roach what section you seeing this behavior exactly ?

edit:
LOL they blocked it AGAIN
save the pic before it is blocked again (this is like 3 or 4x now in the last year)
pic came from user named.. balance.ninja 10/14/2014 on Poloniex chat box
his URL = https://www.dropbox.com/s/on04p14rdlwu5jt/saywhat2.png

edit2:
i tried the picture URL just now and it says "post freely"
i guess they changed their mind about fee's LOL
Link = https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=credit;unproxyban

edit3:
I say put the block back in.. i don't care. (i don't hide my IP)


FUD first & ask questions later™

The Speculation subforum is where the troll in question lurks.

Selling out to advertisers shows you respect neither yourself nor the rest of us.

Too many low-quality posts? Mods not keeping things clean enough? Self-moderated threads let you keep signature spammers and trolls out!

the rate that people can create accounts is astounding. it's no surprise why people can make such accounts and spam when they wish, or input their 'opinion' and then throw the account away
