Inspire us with your level of expertise on spotting spam

You may treat this topic to showcase your level of expertise on identifying spam.

Yeah, I am very poor to spot spam so decided to learn from fellow experts who got years of experience in reporting spam posts in this community.

It would be too good if you explain on how to identify a spam with real examples and some explanation.

If it should be with the level of expertise, we may have different opinions. These are my opinions:

If you see someone posting on long thread already, repeating what people have posted on the first page or posted earlier, I consider those as spam. Exceptional case is when the topic creator posted that people should post their own opinions. Some opinions can be very similar or the same.

Some people just want to spam with few words that add no meaning to a thread. That is the second spam that I noticed on this forum.

Recognising and reporting low quality posts is not rocket science. Any post that doesn’t add value to the discussion is considered as spam. Read the forum rules, the mod did a great job explaining what a low quality post is. Or you could go through the post history of the users who recently received a signature ban to have a good idea of what to look out for.

Actually, you're already aware of that, but you're still trying to appeal, not change your posting habits.
Recently, I noticed your habit of posting on gambling forums frequently. Here are 40 scraping of your posts, including your appeal posts on Meta.


Are you aware that Bitcointalk is a Crypto forum, especially Bitcoin and related ones.

If in percentages, it may be as follows:

Code:

+-------------------------+----------------+
| Sub Forum               | Importance (%) |
+-------------------------+----------------+
| Development & Technical | 28%            |
| Bitcoin Discussion      | 22%            |
| Mining                  | 13%            |
| Marketplace             | 12%            |
| Altcoin                 | 8%             |
| Meta & Reputation       | 7%             |
| Local Boards            | 7%             |
| Gambling                | 3%             |
+-------------------------+----------------+

This percentage is unofficial

Gambling Boards have the lowest percentage because they are not directly related to Blockchain technology, nodes, networks, security, development, and others.
Gambling Boards are just derivative use cases, not an essential part of the ecosystem. Gambling is just one way to use Crypto.

So, if you always talk on the Gambling Forum every day, it's the same as you talk nonsense every day.

From pages 1-11 of your post is full of posts on the Gambling Board, can you discuss other than on the Gambling Board?
Your account was created in 2013, you should be able to discuss if it's just about the technical stuff of Bitcoin.

What I wrote was obviously sarcasm. I don't think I'm spamming the forum with unconstructive and uncontributing posts.
But thanks for the information. I didn't know there were rules about where posts should be posted.
My posts in the Gambling and Gambling Discussion sections were very active during the FIFA World Cup. I happen to be a fan of this sport, and Bitcointalk perfectly combines my passion for cryptocurrencies, football, and my gambling hobby.
I will definitely take your advice into consideration and start being more active in the sections that are recommended.
Thanks again for the information.
