Kyle91 AKA How to increase your ignore list

[BadBear]

Banned some of them. Kept clicking on page after page of posts expecting something besides welcome posts, but no.

Hello. Welcome to Bitcointalk. Please do not visit the cave to the south. There is a badbear in there.

There's also a grue lurking around somewhere in the dark.

[jackjack]

Thanks a lot

Trolling, off-topic posting and one-sentence long posts could be tolerated IMO. But if every single post is in any of those three categories then why keeping the guy?

My words.
I believe that this is the right threshold for an action against such members.
I'd not feel comfortable if i'd have to be afraid to make a post that's not strictly on-topic, or a post that one single moderator could find not enough politically correct. :-) But this is quite relaxed approach and I'd be more than satisfied with such solution. Individuals whose all (or nearly all) posts are of those types should really be banned IMO.

I agree. If members are only replying to posts with useless & in no way helping the community then what is the point? 1-3 word posts some times can be enough to answer the question or give the answer. But, the posts that say "awesome" are really not needed. If you need to thank someone for actually pointing out something then tell them in a personal message. Most newbies now are spamming the "Hello welcome to the forums" posts. I agree that this is a nice way to greet people. But, when they only send them messages it can be very irritating. It seems a lot lurk around the newbie areas and just wait for a introduction post.

I believe useless posters should be warned and banned eventually if they continue doing it. But, we do need to find a definition for useless posts. Does useless posts mean what the moderators think is useless on a individual basis? Or is it going to be a different  system?  


I think 'nearly' all posts or the majority of their posts are what we have discussed to be the definition of useless posts, for example 1 word posts then they should be warned then banned.

I can remember having to report a thread not long ago because someone made a sock puppet and were counting together, 1, 2, 3 right up to 300 it got. They had 300 posts in their first 2 hours of registering that was disgusting. It did get deleted by Tysat eventually though.
I normally just ignore people when they add nothing to the community.

Unlike you, I am (sometimes) debating:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=288334.0


And I (often) answer and help new members to:
- find the answers to their questions ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=302747.msg3239985#msg3239985 ) regarding ads ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304210.msg3256472#msg3256472 ), exchangers, where to buy btc, where to find transactions, and so on.
- lend coins to people who needs it ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=280675.msg3001297#msg3001297 ).
- borrow coins ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=248377.msg3262101#msg3262101 ).
- how to disable signature.
- where they can find information.
- anything they want...

50% of my posts where directly posted to help and welcome newbie like this one (explaining them the rule, what is activity, what is bitcoin, how it works, transactions, and so on):
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=298491.msg3196289#msg3196289

I contacted a guy outside the newbie jail, explained him how to perform a face to face transaction.


You are never helping new members, so yes, you are not posting in "counting with images", but still, even though you are older than me, you do not have a better positive impact that me, considering the fact that almost all your posts are trolling / offtopic shits.

Your last posts:

(the one above)

Vlad buys coins 4 times too expensive but is happy
I love that guy

AFAIK he's French

Again?

Ça peut aussi ne pas être déclaré
Rien ne dit qu'il est français en plus

You ruined the fun

Unlike the other guy I reported:

An other strategy is to make a giveaway / contest: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=288880.100

I am not filling pages and pages of consecutives posts to accept people on the contest





Why so mad? Because you have no clue what is a 51% attack and I'm trying to answer/help newbies?

Yep, that definitely looks like he's made useless posts for money. While I can understand wanting to get more money, like me, I want to do 2k posts this month, it shouldn't mean that all your posts turn to spam >_<

You'd better force theymos to use the crap you coded then, cause on the forum I got +1 rep while you are still at 0
And if you did not read my post till the end, don't even bother answer.

[jackjack]

on the forum I got +1 rep while you are still at 0 on the forum you never made a transaction

FTFY
Check how many people say that the trust system is shit

Made a BTC-e micro withdraw with me. Good trader. Thank you.

Hello. Welcome to Bitcointalk. Please do not visit the cave to the south. There is a badbear in there.

There's also a grue lurking around somewhere in the dark.

You're likely to be eaten by it.

In all fairness, spamming is annoying, but can't you use the ignore button?

IMO the problem is not what I (or another user) see but what non-bitcoiners see when they lurk the forum

Yes, you are right.
If non-bitcoiners see you trolling all day long they will love btc, but if they see me posting a couple of pictures or welcoming new members they will went mad, it is well known that they dislike polite guys.

Get a brain please. I have no idea if you are really over 30, but you should get more mature for fuck sake.
Man up.
