To theymos, nutildah probably misusing sigban...

[jg_btc]

In this topic, there is no clear mention on what are criteria taken care to conclude for issuing signature ban.

(1) It is said, based on overall post history.

I am not sure what superpower nutildah got to go through 5000+ posts to find a spammer in 24 hours or a week of time.

So, it is based on campaign where they are enrolling and I noticed mostly hero/legendary members were the targets so far.

(2) Based on merits.

For very long time, it has been complained here and there that posts are merited for face-value (known accounts) rather than for the quality of content.

Local board posters get more merits than English posters as same accounts frequent same board(s).

(3) 100+ page or 100+ replies cannot define a spam as the sports or casinos topics are different from other real spam topics.


Right now sigban is happening in really really UNFAIR way due to lack of proper guideline and warning.

Please consider set of rules and regulation for issuing sigban rather than just based on rank level or signature campaign enrolled.

Please consider about issuing warning to give a second chance and if no improvement, then obviously sigban will enforce to improve (which is already in practice).

Finally, definition of spam is differing person to person. So, proper guidelines would help.

I'll do the formality. Whose alt are you? Why would newbie be having problem already with this? Also, why create thread when you could post in the topic?

You can't take it literally. You don't have to check user's all posts, even if you surf few pages of user, you still can get an idea. Sure, it makes more sense to check 'recent' compared to 'older' as there should be improvement.

(2) Based on merits.

So it would be really really UNFAIR to issue sigban without proper guideline and warning.

Please consider about issuing warning to give a second chance and if no improvement, then obviously sigban will enforce to improve.

Agreed.

There have been Guidelines since 2016.

Now tell me: which accounts are yours? It sounds like nutildah hit a nerve. Did your attempt to discredit nutildah just backfire?

Finally, definition of spam is differing person to person. So, proper guidelines would help.

So you can avoid getting caught?

I fully support nutildah. I guess we'll see a bunch of topics like this from "newbies" who are actually alts of users that have been milking the forum for too long.

It is better you people focus on good posting than facing what you supposed not to face, many posts are seen as low quality but you will not agree with that. Just post with good thoughts in it, you will not be affected in any way. With what I have seen I am also in support of Nutildah, he just wants to make this forum to be good and reduce spamming.

I don't think there's any need for panic. I asked Nutildah a few questions and his answers made believe that we could be over thinking the whole thing. In the end, only notorious spams will receive the signature ban.

Will you sig ban users based on previously left AI tags by individuals, or this thread marks a new beginning for all.

No, I'm not issuing any retroactive sig bans for AI tags. Its a "new beginning" alright, but I'm not sure we're thinking the same thing.

If you will sig ban users posting previously expressed ideas, this will leave many people banned after the 5th page of every thread.

I'm not being that strict. 5th page is still pretty fresh and young compared to the 1765th page.

Please consider set of rules and regulation for issuing sigban rather than just based on rank level or signature campaign enrolled.

So far I haven't seen nutildah do sigban based on ranking levels or specific signature campaigns, you can see it here. There are already Full Member to Legendary ranks and there are already several types of campaigns.

Finally, definition of spam is differing person to person. So, proper guidelines would help.

Couldn't you learn from profiles that recently got sigban, I think if you look at their profiles and learn the patterns you'll know what the criteria look like.

nutildah is one of the most respected members on the entire forum. If anybody has a problem with him it’s usually a sign that he’s caught them multi-accounting cheating on campaigns, posting AI content or trying to scam, especially when the user giving him shit is a Newbie account.

I did not know the reason you quoted me, I did not in anywhere said I am panicking because of what Nutildah is doing, that is because I am not spamming. Only what I do not support are people that are against him because they see him as a threat but which is not like that. I believe the forum admin that gave him the power to ban users signature will give him guidelines and not that he will just be banning anyone just anyhow, and this forum is not very strict.

There is no need for you to air your views behind a disposable account. Nevertheless first off on a sincere basis it doesn't take reading 30 posts of a user to tell if he's a low quality poster or not. Nobody is judging quality posts by merits plus the merit mentioned is more or less a trivial factor in his actions.

The idea simple is if you are gonna have to make hundreds of posts before a single earned merit then there's a high chance you are probably posting low quality. It's not a conclusion it's a considerable factor rather.

Nutildah, 1000% is abusing the forum and its systems. Good luck changing anything. The entire forum is ran by a small group of people and about 100 of their alt accounts all in cahoots.

Say you skipped it and did not follow through.
I'm copying to quote It below to what I read as the criteria from his post. No cause for alarm and the panicking if you are not doing any of these.

- Unoriginal or low effort replies, including inappropriate use of AI content.
- Repetitive, previously-expressed or generic comments that don’t add value or encourage conversation.
- Consistent burst posting (regularly writing posts less than 10 minutes apart).
- Off‑topic posting or shallow engagement (doesn't provide insight, analysis or perspective).
- Posting in principle for signature campaign payment and not for the sake of contributing actual discussion.

Tens of thousands of members use this forum every day, without a signature ban, but there is still someone who will ask for an additional explanation as to why this rule applies.
After the second chance, you spammers will ask for a third chance and a bunch of additional explanations as to why you are marked as spammers, and that's almost exactly what you're doing here.

At the same time, how to explain the complaint against nutildah, who, out of his goodwill, decided to spend his free time analysing spam.
