Seriously, why the fuck are people still posting without adding any input to the thread. His birthday was over 2 months ago and people are still wishing him fucking happy b-day: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=663338.0It's one thing if it's 1-2 days after his bday, but fucking 2+ months? Seriously, jesus fucking christ. I swear, these people add absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Have you even read the thread? Less than half the people (even less) had paid signatures in that thread. Maybe it is people also trying to add posts on new accounts (i.e. puppets). What you can do about the people with signatures? Report them to their respective payor. Yeah OP I understand you, mods should have locked that (and similar) thread somewhere along the way.

One troll bumps the thread, then people congrats him without checking when the topic has been created because they are not concentrated enough.
Don't blame ALL that posted in the topic in the last few days.

I have a paid sig too but I only end up posting in 1/4 of the thread I enter into. 1/2 the time I can't understand the jibberish going on, another 1/4 the discussion has ended more or less or I have nothing to say.
The problem is not just with this board - many boards have people who just look at the posts on the last page. Over on Slickdeals people will literally ask questions on how to do a do even though the OP may spell it out in a step by step process.
The same people can't be bothered to read the first post - they just have to chime in (having a paid sig encourages that unfortunately). You just can't fix stupid behavior. The only culling for that is the posting timer - limits the amount of text diarrhea.

Is bumping an old dead thread breaking the rule? Should we report such kind of post when we find one?

Bumping old thread is not breaking a rule itself, though in most cases it may be. FWIW I've seen some pretty golden necrobumbs (especially speculation threads from 2011/2012 are good.) Maybe those +1/happybirthday -nonsenseposts are indeed due to the advertisement signatures and/or to make the account eligible to join them.

I agree, it's because one trolled bumped the thread. But I tend to glance at the OP before responding to it in the thread. Don't you?

Posting in off topic doesn't add to your post count or activity last time I checked, so its not a huge deal in this particular instance.

This is incorrect unless it has been changed recently and nobody was told about it.

I just posted in there and my post count went up one (I'm sure you can also check this way too lol), though its a bit weird a mod wouldn't be sure of this. Yeah, that's wrong, not sure where he got that from. I suggested it a couple times in the staff forum, maybe that's it.
It wouldnt be a bad idea, but it would be funny if it was changed without warning and nobody noticed it.

It is a very good idea IMO. But since you have suggested it a couple of times and this rule hasn't been implemented yet, does theymos not like it?

I see no reason not counting any post count as valid there. They can voice out their opinions on other things too, they can contribute constructive post and discuss about things other than Bitcoin. I don't see any reason not counting the post count since there are still people who are contributing to the topics there.

Seriously, jesus fucking christ. I swear, these people add absolutely nothing to the conversation. Actually you're the one meaninglessly responding to a lot off topic to spam your signature. If I were I would be careful as your Hero Member status won't afford you much protection from Bad Bear "Slayer of Paid Sig Spammers" ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ~BCX~ Wanna hear something awesome? When I made that post, I wasn't part of a signature campaign. I actually joined the campaign aftewards. Also, it was a rather funny joke rather than a meaningless "Oh, happy birthday" after 2 months.

Ah, that must have been it. I could have sworn the reason why the counting threads were allowed in off topic, was because it didn't count toward post count. My bad.
