Most of the users that have posted there have already been banned, but the posts remain.
Why? I would think it would be better to trash their posts too. Just my view, but it would make the thread more empty which is kind of the point in preventing spam.
At least in my opinion.
I'd like to think that any legitimate service would avoid doing this themselves or hiring someone to do it for them.
Do you also believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the tooth fairy?
Seriously, people are going to try every trick in the book to get their thread bumped and due to the amount of crap in those boards they try everything they can think of to move their posts up. Otherwise even the best project is going to get buried.
Non-publicity of data
For now, I am intentionally not making it public who bumped each topic, since that way you can't prove that you bumped anything, and this may prevent people from selling their bumps as easily. I don't particularly object to making the approximate bump scores or bump powers public, but I didn't do this yet.
I would like to say I am very surprised that nobody of the higher posts / ranks has gotten PMs about I'll give you "X"
BTC to post in / bump my thread.
That or if they did nobody has discussed it in the open.
[Note for people who need a bumping I can be bought...2
BTC and I'll hit bump for you....just kidding....or am I?]
I know theymos has and I assume other mods have the data as to who hit bump, would be interesting to see. I know I did on one altcoin project that I like.
