News: Due to a wallet-migration bug, you should not upgrade Bitcoin Core. But if you already did, there's no need to downgrade.

Nice. This rule is to avoid to have spamers and trolls at forum.
So now I have to spam and troll in newbie section in order to reply to post I initialy wanted. Smiley

add two categories,..
the 'troll bowl'
and 'spam salad'
might at least be good for a laugh..

What about forcing new users to pay 0.1BTC on signup and it gets refunded after 10 or so posts if they're not banned for spamming/trolling? Smiley

Wouldn't work in my case. I came here hoping to purchase some bitcoins. Wouldn't be able to spend any yet.

But a better method would be appreciated. Like I'll fax you a copy of my passport? Whoops, guess that wouldn't prove I'm me - like this does Smiley

Why is registration on bitcointalk with TOR not allowed?

Aren't a lot of ideological Bitcoin users are also tor "evangelists"?

This wouldn't work against a determined spammer, who would just spit out five posts on this board four hours after having registered, before immediately spamming other boards. But it sure is annoying for regular users like myself.

yeh i think it's more an idea to keep a sort of hierarchy. .But it's moot ( no practical significance) because the guys that been on a while are fukking utter douche bags . . and i don't resect that .. fkNg pathetic.  We're the new crew  .. move over . . Equality for all.

Rob E eloquently demonstrates the shortcomings of the system.
So did probably most people in the previous 160+ pages of this thread.

The more I think about these restrictions, the less they make sense to me. I'm not complaining for the sake of complaining: I can just post two more content-free posts to get the full privileges of an esteemed member of this community.

Even if you're not a spammer, posting five times in a thread that no one reads (like this one) doesn't make you any more aware of Bitcoin than somebody who didn't post a thing. The idea that newbies are incapable of posting anything intelligent, and asking them to become more experienced by posting in threads that no one ever reads, is certainly brilliant.

Or not.

For spam protection it would make a lot more sense to run CAPTCHAs for the first n posts, where n is calibrated to thwart crowdsourcing. The system currently in place just encourages noise.
