Unfortunately, it is a sad truth that there are a lot of users of this forum out there who shit-post and write one line replies or make a reply that has nothing to do with the conversation. This post is for those who want to make money from sig campaigns and have people not  be annoyed with you. If you post a sick tutorial or have something brilliant to say, you may even get tipped in addition to your campaign revenue.

1) Read enough of t hread before commenting. Many people will quickly glance through a thread and write a reply that has little contribution to with the topic on hand. If you get no replies, your post is probably meaningless.

2) Be controversial. Say you opinion and speak your mind about the topic at hand. This will result in possibly heated debates that can get you really enticed in the conversation. You may even forget you're being paid to post on this forum.

3) Write write write. As a general rule of thumb, new threads should be a few paragraphs long and replies should have at least four sentences. Short replies posted just to be paid is spamming.

There are my suggestions.  I followed these rules and haven't been banned for spamming or removed from my campaign. If you're one of those people who don't give a shit, you may end up banned.

Signatures? How about learning a skill... I don't care either way. Everybody has to make a living somehow.

You are right, i have also seen many users doing the same for a higher rank, posting in threads without knowing anything about the topic and starting new threads with meaningless questions, just to increasing their post count or activity count.

It's definitely an issue this board has.. I started a thread in the Meta discussion section about this issue. Postloop has a rep system that helps prevent spamming. I think that something like that should be implemented here, but so far not everyone can agree with a solution.

hmm agreed. There sure should be something that could stop people from spamming on the forum, obviously no one will stop just by telling, if some of them get a ban then others will stop automatically.

I have seen many users posting short sentence replies just to add to their post count. Some are driven by greed to earn from more posts which are meaninglessness. Someone who has been on bitcointalk for a long time knows the rules and therefore should have constructive posts. All users need to read this thread so that all of us can contribute positively to this forum.

Yes, those are helpful suggestions except "reading the entire thread" when you're in a thread with 600 pages just isn't practical most of the time.  You'd never earn a dime in a sig campaign and no one's going to do that.

I have another suggestion:  Write good English, Spanish, Chinese, or whatever language it is that you're supposed to be using.  There are a lot of sig campaigners who try to write in English and fail miserably.  The result?  No one gives a fuck about their posts and they get nuked for sig spam.  I don't want to hear shit about "____ isn't my first language".  Cry me a river. 

When you write well, you get noticed.  Remember that uber-troll MPOE-PR that used to post on bitcointalk?  He/she was bloody brilliant.  If you've never read something by that person, the level of writing (and trolling) was superb.

Yes. Reading all the thread with 600 pages is not essential, the important thing to understand is the topic on which those 600 pages have been posted, if someone understands the topic on which everyone else is talking then he/she will be able to share his constructive thoughts about that particular topic and that won't be counted as spamming i guess.

You ought to report the post to the mods here, then.  You can help to clean up spam by doing so.  As much as I try to always be on topic (sometimes it's hard not to cross-talk), I've had plenty of my own posts zapped. 

Reporting posts to the mods doesn't exactly rank up your account, but I've heard that having a high number of reports with high accuracy has been known to lead to an invitation to have moderator privileges.

Very good summary.

This is the best point. Unfortunately, most users not care about real controversation.

Well for one, their post will be deleted(if it breaks any of the rules) and if they continue doing it, either a (3-60 days) temporary ban will be given or they will be nuked(all of their posts deleted+permaban) or they will be permabanned

With all due respect, read the rules and you'll know how strict they are.

Unfortunately, this is true. Some people just don't care about conversation and just spam. I would suggest to those people to get a real job out in the real world. It's a long process before your account is high enough in rankings to make decent money (unless you purchase an account).

Permabanning them won't always work. Install Tor and a create new account and they're back in the sig spamming business.
