Perhaps adding a temporary sub-forum, just for the Chinese students to post in, I understand that their posts might be....spamish, in the way they are written, or with what they offer, this is primarily to do with their poor English.
They are trying to offer real goods and services for bitcoin though so they have just as much a right to be here as anyone else.
It should also be noted that this is not a single person or account doing this, but multiple ones, which I can tell you are different people.
I think it should also be taken into account that this will not be continuing for much longer (I think 2-3 weeks at most).
I'm open to suggestions, really I'm the best one to deal with this as they do what I say, rather than giving the moderators more work.
Ideas?
Hey Nefario, was hoping you might join this discussion. I don't think it needs the extent of an entire forum section or anything as such as that, just more of a set of guidelines as to what is permitted as spam and was it not. To me, it just seems that your students are quite literally "Begging" for money: Do I understand correctly that they must achieve a certain amount of BTC within a time period?
What if they where to try provide an actual service, such as translations for instance. I know that some of the students already provide services such as this, but when they all try to do it it really clutters the forum. I'm not sure if this is one of your students, but this is a good example of a bad post "
http://bt.irlbtc.com/view/4654.0". It doesn't really make any sense, is he selling silk garments or is he offering advice on identifying silk products?
I realise that there is quite a large language barrier that needs to be addresses by your students, and many of them are doing it quite well. But the point of providing useful services that people are interested in (And can make your students money) needs to be addresses. I think that the BTC network is a great place for your students to get some good experience with dealing with English speaking clients, but it should also provide them with a facility to expand their business ideas.
