I've checked it, and you can also check in modlog: Autoban user: N/A in topic #0 by member #555506 You should also have received a mail into your mailbox, which would contain the approximate reason for your ban, like copypaste (plagiarism) or something similar... So you should do some research and I'll also have a look in reporting threads, but if someone only used the report to moderator button then only a mod can give you proper answer about the reason.

Actually I made two common mistakes. In the first case I sent money to the wrong address, but the generous man sent them back. And the second was when I wrote wrong fee amount. So, people be careful really!!
I had an opportunity to buy Bitcoin when it was single digits, but I opted to wait and buy some time later losing that opportunity. A loss of crypto always bothered me 100x more than the loss of dollars, and I made two common mistakes. In the first case I sent money to the wrong address, but the generous man sent them back. And the second was when I wrote wrong fee amount. So, people be careful really!!

I have looked over your account and you do NOT look like a shitposter. Why did you copy and paste this nonsense because a lot of your posts look of a reasonable standard. Being honest do you think you have done this more than one time or at max 3 times in your entire post history? Did you buy this account recently ? or have you owned it from the start? I would like to hear your side of it even if your ban is not reversed at all. Your account looks net positive to me and a shame to see you banned. In the future it "may" be possible at one point to pay for comprehensive review of your posts and see if there is more and a certain ratio of copy and paste in there and get perhaps a far lesser punishment like sig ban for 6 months and final warning with zero tolerance copy and paste. That is just a suggestion right now and not a reality so I'm just interested after over 3k quite significant and long posts were there just a couple of slip ups like this or is it going to be riddled with them? Why do it at all this part of the copy and paste seems completely junk compared to some of your posts (that I hope are original) Right now you probably have no chance of a review but I am thinking of compiling a list of legends and heros that may have a chance of reinstatement who seemed net positive when banned. Just reading a few of your posts I gained some interesting knowledge so it's a shame you are being cut off from the board at this time.

I feel very sad when I see the account of such top positioned legendary are banned. It is like the person climbs up the mountain and suddenly slips and falls on the ground from where he started his journey.
On the other hand it needs to be praised that rule is the same for all from the lowest ranked members to the top. If some fault is committed, forum rules are broken knowingly or unknowingly it will be punished.
To the best of my knowledge copy paste is the blunder which no one should never ever try to taste.
Trying copy paste is like trying to taste cyanide (the fastest and worst poison on our earth) result of which is quick certain death.

@cryptohunter @virendarnagpal Thanks for kind words. I guess you people have got chance to read one of my recent decent thoughts. 1. It is my own account and I raised it from newbie. 2. By January 2015 2016 [1] when I was heavily sick and was into crypto-games campaign, for the reason of not missing out the slot, I decided to BUY POSTS from one of my old colleague. (He voluntarily asked me to give posts as he was aware of I was into BTT camp and not in position to write posts). 3. I bought some 20 posts from him but used less than 5, other posts were written by my wife (when I was sick). I guess all those 5 posts were plagiarized. 4. I lost my job in late 2016 but managed my life's need just from the earning from my beloved bitsler campaign. But do not know how to lead a life now, feeling like committing suicide for the situation I am facing right now. It is kind of feeling like betrayed due to heavy jealous, that too from a colleague. 5. I have proof for buying the posts. I can show email of posts with date. But, I believed for the sin of plagiarism, there will be no second chance here hence I did not ask. Honestly I do not want to be another feed for this kind of fun: make fun of plagiarisers that act dumb[1] refer this post

Theymos is very clear on plagiarism ban so your effort of creating list will go on vain. Even if you find 2-3 plagiarized post but how do you know that user has not deleted the earlier plagiarized posts? How can you be sure that current post will not be text spinned and paraphrased from outside the forum(or post from other forum member)? Most tough is to catch local poster, who translate their local language (post of other/or other sites) and post in English with para phrasing. PS: Real legendary already left this forum. Can you bring him/her back? Edit: 2. By January 2015 when I was heavily sick and was into crypto-games campaign, for the reason of not missing out the slot, I decided to BUY POSTS from one of my old colleague.

Post was plagiarized on Jan 2016 , so it does not look like your friends fault who has written for you in 2015. 4. I lost my job in late 2016 but managed my life's need just from the earning from my beloved bitsler campaign. But do not know how to lead a life now, feeling like committing suicide for the situation I am facing right now.
No idea, what to say , You are not able to find any job or meaningful employment for last 2 year? I will just wish you good luck in finding good job soon.

My account registration date was September 17, 2015, 10:55:43 AM. Hence, he or myself cannot be writing posts by January 2015. It was a confusion due to my frustration. Sorry. Edited.

I thought the account is locked when they are banned? they can not edit after this point right? How do we know anyone has not edited or deleted posts before they are banned. Theymos is clear yes from what I can see he does not want to get rid of net positive members and only those that are net negative. Read this guys recent posts he seems a very good poster. Anyway sad to see another legend get deleted from the board.

this is true nobody would be above a ratio of 1 in 1000 and review to analyse for net positive.

As far as I can recall, a banned account is not locked, so it is still possible to log into the account but not create, move, alter posts, nor send PMs from the account. People can edit or delete (not all, depending on the board) their posts before they are banned, so if they “feel” they are in the process of being caught plagiarizing or whatnot, they could alter the evidences. That is why some people quote the plagiarized post and/or archive them to an external site for reference. Nevertheless, I figure internally there is some way to track these changes on the live DB (admins/mods?).

So if someone is banned then it is impossible for them to at that point go back and edit things. The fact they can do anything they want before being banned ( i suspect most of these that got a plagiarised post spotted since 2015 or whatever were not expecting anything like that) goes for anyone on the entire board. I don't expect most people as yet realise there is a huge effort to find any copy and paste and ban them or some persons will just hammer delete on their entire post histories to make sure.

Strong punishment but again who knows how many times has he done it. He stole content to make himself look better and gain advantage in ranking. There are a plenty of members making low quality posts so expect harsh penaltys.

I think his main problem will be it was financially motivated as opposed to posting news from reddit for discussion or a guide for a noob or just information someone asked for when there was no financial incentive only helping or bringing news/information. It is the context that I think Theymos is interested in. Sadly though of recent times his posts are very good and I would give him a pass on the basis that for years he has perhaps been a good poster and I don't think that should be excluded from the decision. After all we want the board to gain from people being here and I think the board gains from him being here in his current state of posting. (that is if he is not copy and pasting lately which could only really be discovered from a paid per review and analysis I guess because nobody will donate that much time for free) For me a 6 month - 1 year sig ban would be enough for this one with zero tolerance after. Of course I have no say so that is merely a suggestion that is not probably going to happen unless Theymos says so. I hope though that we can have a measure of punishment and not just a 1 punishment covers all kind of thing because context is important but they must still have a bit of a punishment.

Well, sorry about that. It could be so painful though. I'm trying to know what could be wrong for you to deserve such. Considering if you don't have double/ multiple account. Hope you a have not exposed your secret codes to the scam. And if you are unable to retrieve it. You may quickly reopen another. Though is will take one a long time and courage to restart especially at the level you had attained. Really a sorry case. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

There should be different kinds of punishments ranging from limitations, monthly bans to longer or perma bans. You have a lot of people who contribute a lot while make one mistake you are gone. You can't ignore that you have all different kinds of people who could fall in trap of doing something that they might regret later on. Multiple levels of punishment would fit in great but that would require more mods and bring a whole lot of other problems. In the past I used to moderate and admin projects and it requires a lot of effort to make things work as intended so as it is of now we can just hope that rules will improve in the future.

There are temp bans for other violations. one mistake you are gone
Copypasta is not a mistake, it's a deliberate action with the purpose of scamming whatever bounty campaign they're scamming and spamming the forum with useless tripe. This excuse of hiring someone to copy-paste is also getting old. It doesn't make it any better even if it's true. If someone is not willing or able to post on the forum they should not post on the forum. So how about we first acknowledge the severity of the issue instead of trying to whitewash it. Then we can try to formulate suggestions to theymos as to whether different penalties should be implemented. But as of now there is no option for a signature removal so plagiarizers need to accept the risk of a permaban and weigh it against the pittance they're getting for their spam.

Never whitewash anything just take into account context and prior contribution to make the optimal decision. If you are wanting a net gain for the forum then we need to consider the value they are now as more important than what they once were (2016) too. People can make a poor start or encounter poor periods but pull through to be net positive in a big way. This of course would need to be met at their own expense. (the review) I'm certain any legend being banned for even 3 months would be much more careful and some may care about their sigs too. I would say legends can afford to have them removed for a good year and not create too much fuss if they are real enthusiasts here.

You have a very unique excuse for your ban but I don't think you being not the one who posted the plagiarized post/s can help you save your account. Sad to see your account go but you should have at least took the time to look the posts you have bought from your friend whether or not it is plagiarized. This does not absolve someone who in his account posted the plagiarized content. The way I see it is if they let them give you a chance a lot of people will see this as an opportunity that doing plagiarism in the forum is ok and they do have the chance to walk away freely.
