Discovered a new type of error!

It's a shame... it was an excellent compilation of information. Maybe someone might be interested in restarting the work done by that user.

We always have ninjastic.space to help us locate this information so it doesn't get lost forever.

The compilation of information on that thread is worth a lot and a big help for the community you don't get this number of merits if it's not, someone should really create a thread like that as a reference for the community to use, we have a lot of users who are capable of duplicating the information on that thread and add fresh inputs, this is serious work but it can be done again.

There is a '.' in the message body:

But for the title, there is a trick I don't know. I see it as empty, and that's not normally possible.

Oh well, now I see there's a tiny dot.

Are you sure if the @OP was the one who edit it? because he mostly change his title and message using few characters.

I hope his account is not being used by any other person, because this behaviour is really worrying as he is an asset to this bitcointalk community as he came up with a lot of good topics and compilations of different topics like his encyclopaedia topic, etc.

Signs of changed hands:
1. Change email and password.
2. Using different language and sudden quality post change.
3. He ask the campaign manager to change his address.

There's not even one sign in his account, which mean there's no way his account is changed hands.

There's something I need to understand. Was this topic deleted by Ratimov himself? I mean the famous Beginners and Help Encyclopaedia? That topic is too good to be deleted by the autor. The information therein is superb. I mean, what must have prompted the deletion of the thread? Could it be because the thread was not pinned by theymos or something relating to that.

Yes, unfortunately, this thread was deleted by Ratimov himself, and no one knows the real reasons yet since Ratimov himself did not respond to this thread to explain his reasons.

In any case, it is really unfortunate that this exciting encyclopedia, which was very helpful and useful to beginners, has been deleted. Nothing can be done about that because this is Ratimov’s intellectual property and he has the freedom to dispose of it, but fortunately it can still be accessed through ninjastic.space.

Have you heard of the term "bruised ego"? This is exactly what affects at this time a person who has deleted his own topics that were previously considered useful (according to users). Have you witnessed the drama discussed in the reputation section? If not, then read on to understand the reason for the behavior of a person who deletes all his topics.
What has recently been discovered by users as the disappearance of topics only proves that one cannot blindly trust those who position themselves as people who give their soul to the forum. Take responsibility for finding information on your own, which is abundant on the Internet, and do not trust those who create self-moderated topics. Sometimes, adults return to childhood and destroy their sand houses, so others do not get them.

And speaking of which, pretty much every old guide from a few years ago has been absolutely ravaged by image errors and also buried in search results too. Somebody's gotta collect all this stuff and store it in an easily accessible archive like Bitcoin Wiki (yes, it's cliche, I know) where it will not break randomly.

What was your specific idea? We already know that if the OP doesn't edit these images, there isn't much that can be done.

But, honestly, just as I had the idea of creating TalkImg to avoid these types of problems, I'm seriously starting to think about something that could minimize these situations a little. Of course I don't want to "plagiarize", but to do something for these lost. Of course I don't want to "plagiarize", but to do something to counter these losses.

So, what did you have in mind?

I wanted to visit Ratimov's encyclopedia but I found this error:

How can you call that an error? You should know that it was an edited post where the OP deleted the entire topic, and if you really read that thread, you can see that some parts of the topic were being quoted in some comments. You can decide to edit your topic and delete everything, leaving it blank, but you can't delete the comments of other members. That's why you are seeing a blank page because the OP, edited and delete everything he wrote.

It's like this is no more about the action on what experienced from the encyclopedia content rather than himself not knowing what that should mean after being on the forum for a while and yet not knowing how a post can be edited out, someone can do this for any reason being personal to him since he's the OP to that thread, just as you can also make a post and fo ahead to edit, but ninjastic thread has the record of everything and can fish them out for you.

[Zoomic]

Of course. He managed for years to steal the intellectual property of many authors, why couldn't he do whatever he wants with his intellectual property (assuming that was his intellectual property)?

This is shocking if it is becoming true. I have seen such a thread linking Ratimov to plagerism. I didn't pay much attention to the thread. I have thought it was a mere trolling. This could be the right time to pay attention to the reputation threads.

This isn’t a topic for meta,

I think it is a meta topic. If someone feels they discovered a system error in the forum, meta is the right place to discuss it.

... someone should really create a thread like that as a reference for the community to use, we have a lot of users who are capable of duplicating the information on that thread and add fresh inputs, this is serious work but it can be done again.

Should the interest be creating a topic like that by someone else or knowing the reason the one created was deleted.

Yes, unfortunately, this thread was deleted by Ratimov himself, and no one knows the real reasons yet since Ratimov himself did not respond to this thread to explain his reasons.

Have you heard of the term "bruised ego"?

Who bruised the ego? Forum members or admin or moderators.

Take responsibility for finding information on your own, which is abundant on the Internet, and do not trust those who create self-moderated topics. Sometimes, adults return to childhood and destroy their sand houses, so others do not get them.

I am even surprised that such a great thread was self moderated. Even at that, anyone can delete their own posts even if not self moderated.

Honestly, I've never heard the term "bruised ego" before, although I expect I understand what it means, so thanks for letting me know.

I don't visit the reputation board regularly, so I wasn't aware of what happened there. I was surprised that this was not the first time that Ratimov had deleted his topics, and I saw the members' reactions, most of which were angry at these actions.

Whether these actions, as described by the members there, are childish or evil or psychological acts, I believe that the forum administration has the right in such cases to restore deleted topics, because the materials published on the forum become the intellectual property of the forum and the administration has the right to dispose of them.

I've been thinking about this subject.

Do you think it would be considered plagiarism if:
I recompiled this list of posts, using an "open source" model, in the sense that anyone could replicate this list without being dependent on a single user?

As long as there is explanation of the recompilation, say, OP is not active anymore, not updated, etc., reference is also present, i don't think it's plagiarism.

Random question/suggestion: it would be better if there is an optional dispute to remove all the merits received of the OP if the content was deleted. Because in general term merit is given to quality post, and worth reading. If there's nothing to read, then it opposed to what merit is for.
