No both serves different purpose and bitcoin can't make bank disappear because old guys depends totally on bank for financial matter but icky some of the teens like me depends on bitcoin for earning so we 1 and 2 people can't make the change. Even bitcoin is not accepted by all government and for transaction to those countries will need bank transfer.

2012 account banned? wow this is an old account.
Very Sad to see another legend get canned.
I am interested to see what happened here.
Will you stop with this nonsense. These are not "legends", they're shitposters who happened to register before the merit system or bought or hacked those accounts.
You said you'll have a plan to solve this... whatever problem you thought needed solving. Where is the plan?
Will you stop stalking me. You are very creepy. Also stop using my prior art in your avatar because I could have you banned for copy and paste with far more legitimacy than some that are getting accused of this nonsense.
Now to address your points.
Merit = nothing but back slapping circle jerk membership, it is an insiders club, of a group of individuals lurking in meta... so to tell me legends are not legends due to not having been in this insiders club hiding in meta for the last year is already laughable.
Legends are people here that have achieved HUGE things like busting open huge scams or helping investors find great projects from amongst the junk and scams. Standing up to bullies and scam enablers. These are legends.
Stop equating merit to anything other than being a tool to hold back bots and spammers.
I do not think it at all unreasonable for a member from 2012 to see exactly which posts got his account banned. This is not nonsense.
If he has done it a few times and this all looks to be financially motivated then sure let's wave him goodbye but let's at least see why he is banned. I don't see any reason he should be ignored after 6 yrs.
All legends/heros deserve to have a review at least to make sure the ban is justified.
We want rid of plagiarist who are ruining the board and are net negative but let's make sure they fit this category.
Having seen the evidence now though it looks bad for him. Why even copy and paste this junk.
I won't be arguing further for this specific case but what a stupid copy and paste to lose your account over. Can't imagine why such an old member would even copy and paste such a load of rubbish.
Also regarding my idea to stop legends getting banned over this if they are not really net negative was for them (if they are confident) to pay 0.1btc or more depending on the size of their post history to have it reviewed.
I was just trying to figure out the best way to do that.
I guess you could perhaps do something like this.
Let's take a 10k post history account.
0.25btc to run it all through some copy and paste checker against google....whilst the reviewer has a general read of the quality of posts (not in huge detail)
reviewer will then publish his report and receive the 0.25btc 2 weeks later. If the account exceeds the 1 in 1000 gets banned.
If the account is under the 1 in 1000 then
In that 2 week interval the first (different) person to find additional copy and paste will claim 0.125 btc ( of the 0.25 btc) if 1st reviewer has missed any ensuring first review needs to be accurate. If they find more than 5 more examples they get the full amount.
This I have not given huge amounts of time to consider and actually I am not an expert at this game theory type stuff so perhaps that can easily be gamed somehow.
So the smarter people here can improve upon this or come up with something much better. This is just a suggestion.
Of course if you are a legend and you know you are not net positive then best not to waste your 0.25 or greater. Even if you are found to be net positive and below the 1 in 1000 copy and paste you still lose your 0.25 for doing it at all If you are not willing to pay 0.25btc to keep your legend account you obviously are not too worried about it.
I don't think copy and pasting guides should count. I don't think copy and pasting news in the correct thread or announcements should count. If you are trying to be helpful and the work is obviously not your original work and you were obviously not claiming it was that is not an attempt at plagiarism.
I am not a trouble maker as some have said I just like to see this great forum keep as it was years ago when people could be fair and reasonable. I have only seen 2 cases of unreasonable behaviour toward copy and pasters so it is not like I think none of them should be banned but even 1 person banned for trying to help someone else and for no personal gain is not in the spirit of this board.
To be fair to you (if you are the reporter which I am guessing you must be because you seem to know exactly which posts got them banned) it seems you have no as yet clearly caused anyone innocent to get banned. However to tell me it is nonsense for them to ask for the offending post to be revealed is not at all how it should work. The evidence should be shown if requested. I mean you could save time if you sent them the offending post when they are banned so they need not come here and claim all their own posts are original.
