I was on Bitcoin Discussion this morning, and I had some Déjà vu - I read a lot of these small threads days ago. Why are they back again? All down to one individual.
At the time of posting this, in the last 45 minutes he/she has revived over 30 threads, some being dead for weeks+, with low-level comments including:
"get-rich-quick is the mantra"
"there is no real crypto security"
"it is the best way to lose money"
"it did"
"Yup !"
"well spotted"
He/she is clearly just going through page after page, finding anything slightly negative, and bumping it back to the front page with empty and inane comments that add nothing to the discussion.
Now obviously each individual comment is low-level and against the rules, but is the behavior on the whole a more serious offence?
Edit: An hour later, we are now up to approximately 60 threads, some inactive for months, with more vacuous comments:
"of course it is"
"He is certainly right"
"yes it will"
"yes it is"
"listen"
Surely this kind of spamming isn't permitted?
