What constitutes spam and how best to avoid it

[Negotiation]

Ways to avoid spam?

The most effective way to avoid spam is to read before you post: This could be previous discussions or external articles related to the discussion. It's best to read more than you post.

Use the SEARCH option before starting a topic. This way you know how your idea has been posted previously (if at all it has been) and how best to present your post in a new and relevant form.

Do not post in topics or boards you're not familiar with: the forum has numerous boards and also local sections to allow everyone to find a niche where they can be more helpful to the entire community. Find the sections that best suits you and stick to it.

Read the requirements of any bounty if you wish to join: almost all bounties has rules and regulations, ranging from how many posts to make in a specific period and what sections you should and should not post in. Only take up bounties which you can comfortably manage without the value of your content dropping significantly..

Avoid using multiple accounts: alt accounts are allowed on the forum for a variety of reasons, one of which is to alienate yourself (on one account) from an idea you might have and post it on another account. Using it for financial reasons could reduce the quality of your content and also increases the risk of your posting similar content on different accounts which could constitute plagiarism.


Do not make posts with the sole aim of agreeing or commending a previous post, with contents like: 'I agree' or 'Nice one'. That is the reason merits were implemented.

Exactly post pointing out avoid spam most off problem spam at the time online try to avoid spam conversion adding details information on the topic.

It took me time to adjust to posting in a forum as opposed to doing that in a regular social media space.
I think effort is the most essential tool, put in effort to improve what you give out (research). And try to stay relevant too. In addition to offering helpful contributions, you equally improve your knowledge base and abilities.

Posts are mostly deleted cause of very poor grammar, or ot was off topic. Have a basic understanding of a thread before replying.

I am posting mostly only after some research about it but when replying to the generic threads not giving much attention that is why I need to change now I guess.Started to ignore mega threads and also will avoid the shitcoin section from here on which make me look like a spammer.

Grammar is also one of the thing but its readable I guess but I am not making much longer posts intentionally which is also spam IMO.

Avoid spam mega thread is the first step in the right direction. Secondly you can post anywhere without considering the length of the post and be natural.  The moment you try to extend the post without a reason but to write more, that's where you post become a shit post. Even I have seen few posts with a few words given merits, so quality and relevance matters.
