See this burst poster here.

I have found this guy who has written the last 4 or 5 posts in about a 5 minute interval.

What should I do? Should I report him? Should I tell his campaign manager?

Do you think this way of posting is acceptable?

Edit 10/23/2022: I've found another burstposter.

In general forum rules, the content of the post should be prioritized over the time interval of each post. But since you are enrolled on the signature campaign which you agree to follow when you submit your application. The rules of your campaign will govern and this way of posting is not acceptable for them.

Only campaign makes this such rules because without a payment, People will not waste time post burst here unless he doesn't have a social life.

I don't know if this is /s post or not. I only see that its your history profile with just the way you describe about the time interval of posting in the last 5 posts or so.

Well, back to the question, it will be an issue to other managers but the post quality should be considered as priority and not the time interval and the number of posts made in a day.

Are the posts spam? If yes, then you can report them to the moderator for them to take actions. If not, it isn't against forum rules. The forum has a cool down time which reduces as members rank up, and any post space allowed is normal.
It could be a issue with the campaign they are in, but not necessarily a forum one.

I don't think it's a mistake since what he mentioned is what it shows in the latest replies that he did. Maybe he is just concerned that what he did is okay.


This would be dependent on the campaign manager if he would accept it. Maybe he is catching up with post count?

[rozak]

some campaign managers manage several posts per day and Post Burst. but some don't think about it and focus more on the quality of the posts made.
mostly the bounty campaign manager (altcoin), who seems to regulate the number of posts per day. some of them don't see Bursting Post as a problem, as long as what they count is the maximum post limit per day.

All I could see is your post history, not the post history of any other person.

If the posts are not worthy and if it is more of spam, best to report it. But even if worthy, such should not be acceptable. This is a forum, it will not be good if someone because of campaign have some posts without posting it yet until certain time. I will always prefer to read and post to what is presently happening.

You must be taking piss off of everyone or have some hidden desire to experiment the reaction of the members. LOL
Like:
Are they reading the topic or just making a response without reading it.
Or you are trying everyone to see the interval of your post history 😂

I'm pretty sure Poker Player just screwed up and linked to his own profile instead of the burst poster, despite what seems like a long shot explanation:

I don't think it's a mistake since what he mentioned is what it shows in the latest replies that he did. Maybe he is just concerned that what he did is okay.

But my response in any case would be this: OP, you've been around long enough to know that either reporting burst posters to mods and/or to the member's campaign manager would both be appropriate, although I'd say it depends on the quality of the posts themselves.  There was some member a couple of years ago who was throwing down very well-thought out posts in a rapid fire manner, and despite him obviously not being a shitposter he got called out on it publicly.  Wish I could remember his username.

Is the member in question here ramanlop0 by any chance?  He posted after Poker Player in PP's second to last post, and looking at his post history it does look like he's making posts very quickly--and they're very short ones.  Those I would report.

You made me laugh a lot, many of the responses above didn't even click on the link and gave answers based on assumptions.
In general, the best advice is to wait until we know which account @OP is referring to, and then respond accordingly.

OOps I'm out of merits, it's the first time in a long time.

Imagine PP wanted to test user's behavior 🤣

[...]I'm pretty sure Poker Player just screwed up and linked to his own profile instead of the burst poster

I am sure too. The above post was just to make fun of some users who reacted on the thread not even looking at the post history. No offense guys, sometimes we all are too lazy to go into the deep.

That's some thought and would be one way to stire reactions but, I think it was an error from OP as I don't think OP would be this eager to put himself in the spotlight of some negativity as he clearly knows post bursting isn't okay. As this is mostly aimed at meeting campaign quotas, ninjastic.space could detect and campaign managers frowns at it which makes it some unacceptable act.

In anyways, I also checked his last seen and its way back to 4am UTC in contracts to when most of these responses started pouring in and as such, his yet to realise the mistake he must have made in that link. Sure he would show us this user pretty soon.

I almost thought I was the only one who found this hilarious @LoyceV @hugeblack. I chuckled when I saw this. LoyceV is capable of some comic act yeah.

[SatoPrincess]

Seeing this is the most recent post from OP today, I believe he will correct the error when he comes online. Before then, I still would like to share my thoughts on the matter. AFAIK if the user breaks any of the rules , 1-9 you should definitely report the posts immediately. Bringing this to public notice makes me wonder if there is suspicion that the user might be a bot? I found a thread one time about DdmrDdmr sending merits to different accounts too fast and the OP called him a machine or something like that. I wonder if it is a similar case

[UserU]

Man, you had us in the first half there ngl

[DooMAD]

Just in case the OP is referring to themselves, I tend to interpret burst posting as frequent low-quality posts.  If some users have the capacity to contribute several thought-provoking and substantial posts in rapid succession, I don't have any problems with that.

Nowadays we should take into account things like ADHD and neurodiversity.  Some people do have minds that can go a thousand miles an hour and can easily produce several posts of worthwhile content without a pause in between.  Provided it's coherent and on-topic, I don't personally see any harm in that.  Although I'd understand if a signature campaign manager took a different stance, heh.  But then that's not a Meta issue.

[LoyceV]

Lol.
OP went offline the same second he made this topic.

[348Judah]

OP actually made a mistake in copying the intended profile for his own but what i see regarding post bursting is that if the amount of oost made isn't beyond four or five post within a short time frame and yet carry a semantic meaning with quality contents, i will admit such isn't a post bursting but any other way round aside this could be termed so, now it also depends onnthe user if in campaign or not, here the campaign managers are required to thorough go through the post of their participants before accreditation pay payout, I've seen some users being reported for editing post bursting after they would have posted an empty replies just to fulfill payment required post for a campaign, all these needed to be carefully observed by campaign managers, also we have different typing skill, accuracy and speed being different from each other, this does not equally means post bursting in somecases whereby the user is a fast typists.

[Pmalek]

@Poker Player
Don't drink and post, it's dangerous.

I have never given much thought to post bursting. But if the content of the posts are OK and it isn't spam except the posts coming in quick succession one after the other, I personally wouldn't mind it.

I did think of something though. Imagine you were reading a few threads or posts and then you had to leave or go to work before you can come up with a decent reply. During the time you are gone, you might write a draft of what you want to say or write it on your work computer and save the content somewhere. Later when you get home where you are safe to access Bitcointalk, you come back to your attachments or drafts, check that you aren't repeating what others have already said, and you post it in the appropriate threads. Since the posts were already written in advance, you can post all of them relatively quickly, and they will look like burst posting. But that doesn't necessarily mean they are shit posts and should be deleted.

[AnotherAlt]

I would rather see your post quality and if you are on-topic. Many people are capable of writing extremely fast, and they can write at the speed of their thinking. JJG, Franky1 could be the example. I don't see it as a problem if people can write healthy posts within a few minutes.
I don't think the Poker player linked his post history by mistake. He wants to see what the community feels about this posting habit. Sometimes it happens to me as well. I read the whole day and don't find anything to post. But, Sometimes, it also happens that I just made a post and saw another post where I am interested in joining the discussion. My campaign allows me to post five posts in a day. But, If it's worth joining the debate, I won't mind joining.
