Honestly, most times I really do not understand the rules in this forum; it always seems like a dictatorship to me.
Maybe because I am a newbie is why my voice and thoughts do not seem relevant to the bitcoin community.

I usually spend time on the technical discussions because I love technical topics; most time if I reply to or quote someone's posts, the moderator achow101 or gmaxwell, i do not know who usually does that will just delete my post without warning.  I try not to advertise or insult anyone and i always make sure that my posts are never off but it just gets deleted. This really discourages me from posting or even sharing my thoughts and you guys know how that looks on my badge profile.   

A list of official rules should be made and pinned somewhere where everyone at the index page could see and refer to.

Another thing, if a newbie quotes a higher-rank member's quotes that contains links, it really looks bad to see "suspicious link removed" meanwhile you just quoted someone else on the same board.

I believe we are all here to add value in own our little ways; blockchain has big potentials for the world. I come from a place where access to computers isn't luxury and I and a few others are trying to see how we can utilise technology to improve lives around here. If this forum has such strict procedures, I wonder what we are actually trying to achieve.

Mods, please take note. Thanks!!

This will help to the other members with more care to their posting, because I saw a lot new members here just posting for the sake of their bounties and their posting off-topic replies to some thread that can be useful to others and useful for them if they read it carefully and take it deeper.

If a mod deletes your post, can it affect your member rating?

I have been reporting off-topic replies once in a while and been proud with my 100% accuracy.

However today as I was about to report a clear off-topic post, I noticed that my accuracy has been tarnished.
It maybe an oddity as I have 10 reports with 88% accuracy, it would have been okay if it says 90% as that would have made 1/10 to be inaccurate but 88%.

Thank you.

Its ironic that the post removed is not given any context when stated as deleted usually.    I'm just trying to understand why a little better, so I'll repost here the mistake I made that required moderation and maybe its obvious to someone.   Maybe its someone just hammering report but I doubt its that simple.


The OP thread title is 'Re: What will happen if the all countries convert to cryptocurrency?' and the OP post is:


I responded:

My reasoning was SDR and the IMF head has discussed use of blockchain as an alternative to national currencies.   Its just talk right now but failure is rarely planned, it could happen.    It would not be proper crypto as its centralised but most people would associate and consider it relevant to the OP topic I thought.   I could have posted a source alongside my post, do I need to do this more to justify my opinions perhaps.

The only national cyptocurrency I've heard of really is Venezuela and its a country under sanctions and press restrictions, I didnt mention it as its an opaque situation sadly.



Another topic I have no context for, I posted and had removed this post and again I'm not sure of the mistake.   I dont care about arguing the point especially but if anyone sees my mistake so I dont repeat it I'd appreciate the detail:

Maybe the posts you have done was off topic in the threads you have written !
A other thing what can be is that the threads you has written was self moderated and the thread owner has deleted it !
The last possible thing is that somebody has reported your post and the Moderators have delete it !

Thank you for help. I am informed with the rules of the forum and try not to violate them. This is evidenced by my rank and activity. I wrote in different topics and I never offtopic, I never spam and never plagiarize and didn't reported someone else’s posts. It's the first time all my posts (27 posts) that written within a month deleted  in one day.

Based on my experience.

• Report to moderator for OP if the thread starter asks airdrop or bounty hunter to make a comment to their thread as a part to get rewards. You can add a proof about it in your report description.
• For any spam post/low quality post on a thread you mentioned, you must report each message one by one.

I posted two times with a spot on reply that was most certainly on topic yet some fool feels the need to delete my posts.
It's rubbish.

There are a lot of threads on bitcointalk and I sometimes marvel at how they all get moderated. Anyways, my suggestion is the report to moderator link below the reply should be used to report such members so it would be easy for moderators to easily find these off topic replies.
