Do not post off-topic replies

[arumiedes]

Off-topic replies have become a big problem. From now on, I will be deleting such replies without notice, forum-wide. If your replies disappear, this is probably why.

All replies must respond to the topic's original post in some way, even if they are replying to an on-topic reply. If your reply has nothing to do with the topic post, either add some content that is relevant or creates a new topic.

Please report off-topic posts as soon as you see them.

Detecting posts outside of this topic if the manual is felt to be difficult is there an additional app on bitcointalk.org to detect the same word in the next thread or make it automatically erased when it finds posts off topic.

What is off topic depends of lot of the interpretation the moderator gives to your post ...

I am pretty sure, as a computer scientist, that my last deleted post was not off-topic ...   most of the time I even make citation of scientific papers etc.
Honestly how come people talking about bootstrapping p2p system without mention or do analogies the history of modern computer

I do not want to post the wrong topic but to me it is very difficult, because I do not know much about it

I would suggest you to look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0 for a while and get yourself used to that section.  Then you can post there asking questions without making off topic posts.  You can then go and look at other sections for a while without posting, and repeat the process.

I see what you're saying. This is the place where minds meet, ideas are born, information is shared, and people are advanced who care enough about the Bitcoin. But, they provided a reply related to a preferred topic rather than something related to the current topic of conversation.

Let's make this forum better!

Sir In my other account I was banned due to off topics status have written an apology to the email on my home page.  PETER2680 pls Sir is there any assurance that my account will be open again sir.  Please sir. I am a novice of this but have learnt my lesson.

[xetofficial]

What do you mean by off topic, if I am replying with Thank you for the very informative information? Does it counts as off- topic as well?

[Solomon3158]

That what I thought affected my account. But the issues is will I reinstate back again after writing all the apology etc. Please I need help plss.

You do realize you are ban evading and could get this account banned as well?

25. If you get banned (temporary or permanently) and create a new account to continue posting / sending PMs, it's considered ban evasion. The only exception is creating a thread in Meta about your ban.

Surely i'll let you know, but if I have any query or doubt related to any subject on the forum, I can ask right?

theymos was talking about posts that are not related to the OP of that thread.  Of course you can post anything as long as it is related to the OP of that thread, otherwise you should start a new topic in an appropriate section where the new topic fits.

Honestly posting off topic has turned a big challenge here  in the forum as many members just come to spam the forum I guess maybe they don't read the rules because many of us here are beginners so deleting post that are off topic will be a good move thanks for this great and motivating idea.

The reality is that, I do not know where to write the first message. (Therefore, I write here).

Off-topic replies have become a big problem.

I want to report about beginning of travelogue on the forum. Hello world!

I also wish to join in your words

I'll never ShitPost using this account to maintain the decorum of the forum.

When can we expect to see some new rules to clarify the uncertainty? The problem of spam/farmers (bounty).

[JanetGray12a14]

I sympathize with the idea because when we reply we should not go far beyond the problem of the article but instead focus on the question we asked in the post, avoid stray threads and drift posts so that people can focus on the ching content of the question

[JosefinaCrane]

yes its true when there is an off topic reply, when people are looking for some serious reply and they find non interesting and not-related posts, its not actually good for the moderator as well the post user.

Please don't go to a thread called "Do not post off-topic replies" and post an off-topic reply...

You deleted some of my posts - and they weren't off-topic. Maybe I just had a diffenrent opinion to yours?
I am really angry atm and I think to boycott this crappy forum in the future. This is censorship at it's best.

Just to give you an example. There is a new blockchain project that tries to solve the problem with the scalability.
I said that I think that scalability is the biggest problem of nowadays blockchain and I hope that the project can solve it.

The post was deleted because it was off-topic?
This is just BS.

[virendarnagpal]

Really welcome step.  If I post some question; and get reply for the other; it is of no use.  So  this step will motivate members to write to the mark.  Reply to the question really asked ; and not just post two lines for the purpose of fulfilling signature campaign requirements. 
Already merit system as done a great for the forum and I think now this decision will further add to the quality of the forum discussions .

[aahvachandra]

Hey Legendary peoples. I have a question what if one of my posts is deleted by moderators and according to me it's not at all an off-topic post? What can I do?? Please someone give me a reply over this.

An off-topic reply can be just one of many reasons for why a moderator deleted your post. It's possible that someone reported your reply as low quality since most of your posts are bounty related. Or maybe someone found your post to be inaccurate because scalability is already being addressed by so many different projects now so it's not that much of a problem today.

Either way, i respect what the moderators are trying to do with new rules and trying to reduce spam. I've had posts deleted as well but do you see me getting angry? Anyway, if you want to leave you're more than welcome to do so but just keep in mind this forum is moderated and it's a privilege to be a member. So they can delete any post that doesn't belong here because they want the forum to remain useful for many years to come.
