Considering morvillz7z's report and he copied the answer word-by-word which isn't relevant with the topic, most likely it's plagiarism. However, he's not banned although the post itself already deleted.
Well, I think Gbniman continues to plagiarize with his new posts now. Without citing the source User: GbnimanCopyI have always been sickly for some years now, and its either reocurring; malaria or typhoid or infection or acne or boils around my genital.
Its just making me feel miserable, I have done blood and urine tests.
I think the problem is from my immunity, since i masturbated alot throughout these years. I've always been feeling fatigue.
So, How can I boost my Immune system?

Is it plagerism? Probably not given the user (from your account) hasn't passed off the information as having been their own words Isn't that the assumption of anything you post? Unless stated otherwise, you're posting your own words. Given the post cited in my original response was in answer to a user seeking help, then it could be construed that the user answering that call for help had simply sourced the answer from online and then posted the answer (and failed to attribute said answer). No doubt at all. Definitely a plagiarist. copy:Do you wake up in the morning with stiff joints? Are your knees, hands, hips, neck or lower back aching more than before and it's getting harder to move in general? Have you noticed that some of the joints in your hands and feet have become swollen?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be developing arthritis, the most common joint problem in older people. <cut> [ archived] source: https://www.nairaland.com/5586682/looking-lasting-solution-arthritis-rheumatism(the source itself is plagiarized from multiple sources, but this is irrelevant in this case)

Looks like our discussion of Gbniman has had the desired effect - they have now been banned: And, some of their threads that were cited in the posts immediately preceding this post have already been deleted by the admin/mods, so the angst felt by some of you that Gbniman hadn't been banned as quickly as you would have liked can rest easy. Your pitchforks and flaming torches were put to good use once more.

PlagiarismUser: Abike007Post link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5357659.msg57832858#msg57832858Copy. Cryptocurrency security encompasses everything you need to know about the potential dangers with cryptocurrency, as well as the fundamentals of what you can do to make your setting related to your crypto investments or trades safer and safeguard your crypto assets.
You should be aware that a centralized cryptocurrency service does not offer the same level of money security as a bank. Crypto brokers, for example, are not as tightly regulated, and if funds are lost, they can be lost permanently. It is vital to keep yourself updated with information on cryptocurrency security to know what can go wrong and how to prevent such situations from arising.
Let's understand how secure cryptocurrency is first.
How Secure Is Cryptocurrency?
Blockchain technology is commonly used to create cryptocurrencies. The method transactions are recorded in "blocks," and time-stamped is described by blockchain. It's a lengthy, complicated procedure, but the result is a secure digital ledger of cryptocurrency transactions that hackers can't influence.
Transactions also necessitate a two-factor authentication process. While security measures are in place, this does not mean that cryptocurrencies are immune to hackers.
It is obvious to wonder why cryptocurrency security is so stressed when cryptocurrency is somewhat safe. Let's understand the risks that arise while engaging in the crypto sector.
Risk 1: When people leave cryptocurrency on exchanges
Many people leave their cryptocurrency on exchanges when they first start trading cryptocurrencies. It's easy since the funds and crypto coins are readily available for transactions. Still, hackers, unfortunately, also love the idea that so much cryptocurrency is in one single location, ready for the taking. Moreover, exchange hacking is not confined to other parties; employees and even exchange founders have committed significant fraud.
Risk 2: Storing Cryptocurrency Locally
In contrast to leaving seed phrases in centralized cloud storage, several examples of seed phrases are backed up on local devices and subsequently being lost or stolen, or the PIN/Password is forgotten. The problem with local storage is that it's easy to misplace it or for someone to track you down and steal it.
Risk 3: Being targeted by criminals.
The possibility of your crypto being targeted is quite real because so much of the personal information is out available to anyone who wants to target us. Email phishing attacks, SIM Swap assaults that bypass 2-factor authentication, and other smart social engineering tactics are all examples of personal assaults. In 2020, DeFi protocols were used in the majority of crypto thefts. Conclusion You can only select the best way to pick and set up your crypto wallet and other digital assets with seed phrase backups and other wallet setup options and hope to avoid tragic situations from taking place. But keeping yourself posted with information and updates related to cryptocurrency security is usually the best option when it comes to taking the best measures for staying safe in the crypto world.

PlagiarismUser: rinkidas14Post link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5357694.msg57834299#msg57834299( archive) India's gross domestic product (GDP) surged 20.1% in the April-June quater of FY22, it's best-ever fiscal-quarter numbers, according to the deta released by the government's statistics office on Tuesday.
"GDP at constant (2011-12) Prices in Q1 of 2021-22 estimated at ₹32.38 lakh crore, against ₹26.95 lakh crore in Q1 of 2020-21,
Showing a growth of 20.1 percent as compared to a contraction of 24.4 percent in Q1 2920-21," the deta from MoSPI stated.
This is fastest growth since the mid-1990s when official quarterly data was available, and Up sharply from 1.6% in the previous quarter and from a record contraction of 24.4% in the same quarter a year earlier.
The growth in the current quarter is mainly on low-base effect.

The net flows fell by just under 39% year-on-year in July in continuation of the trend witnessed last fiscal when, Long-term, non-debt-creating investments plummeted by 29% to 1.85 billion dollars from the previous year, the Dawn reported.

Nobody is banned strictly because of "the rules"; it's always handled case-by-case, but almost always, plagiarists deserve to be permabanned. The date of the original is dated March 13, 2018, the plagiarism date is March 19 2018 (no links provided). I checked only 2 themes created by this user, I think if someone checks the rest, they will find more plagiarism. PlagiarismUser: MpamaegbuPost link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3158767.msg32651653#msg32651653( archive) Additional link to third source: https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anassmed/good-news-btcWith the G20 economic summit underway today and tomorrow in Argentina, many are likely to conclude with the smuggled out snippet below that the meeting will end in favour of the crypto community. Foretelling the outcome, Bitcoin has dramatically bounced back to $8300+ this morning after its below $7,500 low last night. May be you will agree ir disagree with the positions below.
USA - ICO Prohibited, Money Laundering & Illegal Act Regulations, Cryptographic Exchange Tradition License Scheme
Japan - taxation, payment instrument recognition
Germany - It is a legitimate financial instrument and may be taxable, but requires additional licenses and permits.
England - No government regulation
France - warnings about regulatory readiness (not disclosed in detail), 'risk of speculation and manipulation’
Italy - Some central banks consider issuing cryptocurrencies
Canada - Taxation
China - Coin trading prohibited, ICO prohibited
India - Not accepted as a means of payment, regulation of money laundering and illegal activities
Brazil - Financial assets not recognized, direct investment prohibited
South Korea - No anonymous account transactions (real name system), tax preparation in progress
Australia - No government regulation
Russia - Cryptocurrencies regulation legislation, ICO prohibition, while allowing legislation, can run a legitimate exchange
Mexico - Preparing taxation
Indonesia - No government regulation, prohibited from banks
Turkey - No government regulation
Saudi Arabia - Some regulations will be introduced but not prohibited
Argentina - No government regulation
Republic of South Africa - No government regulation
European Union - Agreed to more stringent rules to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing in Bitcoin and other virtual currency exchanges
Every day we read about US,China, Korea,Japan; their stand on cryptos and anytime the news seems bad it will create FUD which will lead to market crash.
But I believe US,China, Korea,Japan are not the only countries in the world. So today I want the community members to state their countries stand as regards to cryptos
Below are few countries stands as regarding to cryptos. you can correct me if I am wrong.
Please Add your own country stand.
Maybe If we spread some good news about countries that support cryptos we might see bullish market again.
#USA - ICO Prohibited, Money Laundering & Illegal Act Regulations, Cryptographic Exchange Tradition License Scheme
#Japan - taxation, payment instrument recognition
#Germany - It is a legitimate financial instrument and may be taxable, but requires additional licenses and permits.

#Philippines
- Cryptocurrency is supported by Central Bank Of the Philippines (BSP), Local Banks are now looking for block-chain technology and its usage (Unionbank), You can easily convert your bitcoin into fiat (PHP) by using local exchanges approved by BSP (Coins.ph and rebbit.ph), BTC to Fiat (PHP) conversion is regulated by BSP to follow AMLA (Anti Money Laundering Act), Bitcoin ATM's on Makati City, There is no ICO Regulation yet.

Regulations are becoming increasingly strict for crypto exchanges to verify customer identities during the opening and maintaining of accounts. Some countries have even gone as far to demand that citizens declare their crypto hodlings. Crypto exchanges are now embracing KYC procedures to protect themselves. KYC compliance has a huge impact on how they enable customers to open accounts and perform transactions. Sad news is KYC on exchanges can result to phishing attempt, especially when system is hacked, we are in the world that peoples information are used against them. Hacked users data are sold on the dark web. I thought crypto was all anout anonymity. Giving out kyc on any platform has its own risk, exchanges included.
Someone sent me a screenshot of a supposed mail he got from Binance
I'm not sure if this is true but if it is I'd have to move my assets to a decentralized exchange. I find this new development alarming! Forgive my ignorance, but I am one of those flock who got into bitcoin thinking it was a safe haven away from the prying eyes of the government but I guessed wrong. We are losing to the authorities on every front

Honestly, I thought I put a link at the end and can't really explain how that skipped me. That thread was closed almost immediately it started and I never went back to it until when this issue came up, perhaps I would've observed I didn't put a link there if it were open and people were posting there. It's an honest slip. I never intended to plagiarize that write-up or anyone's work as I have given references to write-ups/comments I lift or put them in quotes. I even put out links to the two short articles I cited in threads I started before and after this thread in question was made. I wouldn't intentionally leave out referencing a lengthy article that was obviously not mine. It's a slip, frankly. There's nothing I stand to gain doing otherwise.

This is your self-defense that has become a common practice by other plagiarists. Don't really understand why people ignored this issue before you and one other person were accepted into the bestchange campaign, but it's true that you made a huge mistake based on forum rules.

The only thing that still unclear is where is the original source? If the post from steemit platform is the source we are talking about then three people did copy it to bitcointalk without providing a link. What Is Your country Saying About Cryptos? by valnd (account is not banned for plagiarism, but neutral-tagged by The Pharmacist for shitpoting) UPDATE! G20 CURRENT REGULATORY STATUS by mikejack (account is banned for plagiarism? and also tagged by The Pharmacist for account buying/selling) G20 should end Positive For Crypto by Mpamaegbu Mpamaegbu claims to not have provided a link to the source but what actually was the source? If he copied the message from steemit and forgot to put a link, then it can be considered an error. If, on the other hand, he copypasted the post from bitcointalk, then it is blatant plagiarism because his post was not translation nor quotation.

A Telegram channel called @ShahTrading has a post on the same date as the steemit article, but I cannot figure out the timestamps. It looks like the steemit article is a copy, but I cannot say for sure. https://t.me/ShahTrading/679(I am not sure if everyone can see the post on the web, if not, I will post a screenshot.)

If, on the other hand, he copypasted the post from bitcointalk, then it is blatant plagiarism because his post was not translation nor quotation.
Mpamaegbu will have to answer that question, though I'm not sure it really matters at this point. Whether he says he forgot to reference the steemit article or one of those bitcointalk posts, the result (whatever it may be) is going to be the same. I tend to believe Mpamaegbu's story about forgetting to cite the source, simply because I'm familiar with him as a member and I know damn well that he knows how seriously plagiarism is taken on the forum, and I seriously doubt he'd take a chance that someone wouldn't discover the source of that post. I've chatted with him via PMs, and he's always been trying to do the right thing as far as I can tell. This is one of those situations that gets kinda sticky for me. I can voice my personal opinion about what happened, but I definitely don't want to get egg splattered all over my face if I vouch for him and later it turns out that there have been multiple cases of plagiarism. I don't think that's going to be true, and I hope someone can verify that.

Well he's been banned Quite sad to lose a Hero member account under such circumstances. Damn ! It's hard to get a hero member rank from 0 merits, if you ask me. The pain must be unbearable. I am not sure if he will try to appeal, but man, this is a shocker. I don't know why he didn't bother adding the link to the said post, even after the discovery that he mistakenly missed it. I mean, it was a mistake to forget the link, right? Why not added it if you realized the mistake?

This is way overboard IMO. The post in question seems to be referencing the copied text as "smuggled out snippet below" so arguably Mpamaegbu was not trying to claim authorship of that text.

He'd been a member since before the merit system, so I don't think he started with zero merits. Nevertheless, he was a pretty familiar face on the forum (at least to me), and it sucks that it turned out this way. I don't know if more plagiarism was found or if the mods just didn't accept his reason, but we'll see if he appeals it. Why not added it if you realized the mistake?
My guess is that he forgot about it once the thread was locked or thought it wouldn't be necessary because it got locked. And yes, that's exactly what he should have done once his mistake was realized--and here I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt in saying that it was a mistake. I'm not a mind reader, so who knows.

Hey guys, how do you see if someone has been banned? I've searched the subject and in Banned Users they say it can't be seen (although it is a 6 year-old post). Also, in another thread, LoyceV says: "Unlike Mods, users can't see if someone is banned." Any way to see it if you are not a mod? Timelord2067 and Bitcoin_Arena have shown us some people are banned and I don't think they are mods.

Hey guys, how do you see if someone has been banned?
Using bpip.org it's the easiest to see that, here's the @Mpamaegbu account on bpip https://bpip.org/Profile?id=940323 you can see there's a sign of Archived under his profile, mean he has been banned. Another way you can see on modlog https://bitcointalk.org/modlog.php only for recent user (I don't know the exact time) and banned user can't wear a signature.
