There are dozens of spammers who write useless posts on plenty of threads in order to have a huge post count
I want to point out that the only reason one would do this is building a scam
So, is this spamming allowed here?

Example, threeip just showed me that guy: kodo https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=120293;sa=showPosts
One senseless post among others https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=232781.msg2459523#msg2459523

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

I also noticed kodo spamming everywhere, take a look at his stats:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=120293;sa=statPanel

Activity and posts in Russian, Greek, German, Catalan and Romanian sections (there were a few meaningless posts in the Polish section too)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=169001.msg2446172#msg2446172
All he does is copy mai77 post's 2nd line in entirety, probably without even knowing what it means.

In the Catalan thread he asks the people if they speak the language and if Catalan [that's a language] was a colony of Britain [he didn't even bother with an online translator]:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855.msg2445971#msg2445971

tells someone to update their bitcoin client even though that person is running the latest version:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=232303.msg2456468#msg2456468

etc. etc. anyone can see for themselves

Personally I suspect kodo is a chatbot someone let loose on the forums. I wonder if he would pass a Turing test.

I banned kodo for spamming. If I'm not wrong, he was banned before temporarily for spamming.

Thumbs up. Another one trolling here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=125869

EDIT: Bigger thumbs up and sending a beer for that one Smiley

EDIT2: Oops, the thread starter deleted them. Have a beer anyway Wink

I banned this one.

You might want to look at this guy as well.  He's posted on every thread in the Politics and Society section with "^", "+1", "Exactly"; things like that.

yeah, all he does is reply to EVERY newbie thread with a "hi".
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

You can always keep deleting some of your old posts so that your post count stays <500 and you never acquire the Hero member status.

I posted about this guy a few weeks ago:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=230146.0

Just look at his post history:

Put in random bids

abuse auctioneer or spam "overpriced"

Look what he did to get out of newbie world:
