I've also never bought nor sold an account and never expect to do so. I've never even received any offers to buy this account, believe it or not.
I don't have to believe it. I choose not to believe the words of people who whore out their signature space. They usually have nothing intelligent to add to the conversation anyway.

I hope that you realize that dooglus is the owner of Just-Dice and he doesn't actually spend any money on advertising. Your points are even more invalid

Your points are even more invalid Except for the one about him being his own pimp. Go back to trying to destroy the forum with your "business."

A better way, to reduce the spam would be to put a limit on how many posts a signature campaign will pay for per week thus eliminating spam from those who meet the 100 post count limit if most campaigns by spamming

Limit the amount of users a campaign can use and allow for only 1 account per IP to join a campaign

The effect of not doing anything about these "ad sig" campaigns is becoming rather obvious now.
There are very few technical people bothering to post much at all and the vast majority of nearly all posts that I see (and I have blocked much of the worse boards on this forum) are just rubbish posts (made of course by ad-sig posters).
Basically those that used to find this forum useful and interesting are now "moving away" and I suspect this will continue unless the new forum works out some better balance.
I'm sure some whinging whining ad-sig posters are going to respond to this post with "but I should be allowed to earn my 0.0001 BTC" and yes, unfortunately that is what this forum believes you should be allowed to do.
To put it plainly "the ad-siggers won" and their victory is a forum completely full of useless posts made by kids earning pocket money (a victory for "free speech and capitalism" might be what the spinners would call it).

Can I ask you where they are moving? However I think the unique way for stop (at all) the useless posts is : ban the signature campaigns; but it will be a form of censorship and I think it is contrary with the philosophy of this forum.

imho this madness is actually somehow connected with possibility to buy and sell accounts. potential buyers are buying those acc for:
1* scam other because others simply believe them - they are here so long with positive trust and history 2* ROI - yes, this sounds really stupid but for sure somebody is buying accs just for longterm profir from sig. campaign (without any bitcoin interest at all, just for "profit")
there are not so many ways how to deal with it, except more strict moderation and focus to some "special" examples. don't want to mention them here, but they are guys with more then 14k posts within two years or 6k within year..

Those that are still wearing the sig are just doing so for the ref link, or out of love for Stunna, or both. I don't think anyone is getting paid-per-post for that ad anymore.

Even though i'm only Jr. member and don't have an option to make some money with signature, I don't like the idea of signature campaigns. This forums has turned into a mass spamming. Everyone wants to make at least x amount of posts so he'll get paid. The quaility of posts and topics are below 0 thanks to the signatures. I would suggest to ban them immediately, before gets even worse.

The next time quote the complete post or are you worried? That mod is a white spammer, 15k posts in ~2 years. Yes such difference.

There can be legit sigs like yours and mine (where there's either public service stuff or personal projects), but no matter how much we beg for the sig ad spamming to be stopped, it never happens. or it can be there no Sig under our profile it would help us to think before posting .. where there is money there is waste.

Smart man, OP.
Nothing more needs to be said.
Thanks. One of the reasons I have not been active here recently is, besides that I've said most of what needs to be said (x3200 posts), there is no participation here from intelligent people any more, just spam scams and get rich alt coin schemes. Any legitimate service would be wise to steer clear of rewarding those who would destroy their own currency's forum for profit, and the ultimate solution was given nine months ago in post #1.

- snip - there is no participation here from intelligent people any more, - snip -
Have you found somewhere else I can go where I CAN find conversation with intelligent people? Feel free to send your response via PM if you don't want the local riff-raff to find out about it.
