Bitcoin Garden | RULES OF THE FORUM - Make sure you read this!
secco:
Welcome to Bitcoin Garden. I'm the admin of the forum and I would like to point your attention on a few common sense rules our users shall follow in order to keep the forum in order. Last update 2019.07.22
We don't like complicate rules and we really dislike censorship, however, when you post, always keep these rules in mind:
THE BIG RULES (If you break these rules, you're eligible for an instant and possibly permanent ban):
* Do not spam, no multiple accounts
* Do not post anything illegal of objectionable
* Do not quote an entire post, quote just the part relevant to the discussion
* Do not use racist, sexist, homophobic or hateful language
* Do not impersonate Administrators, Moderators, or other forum users.
* Shilling bounties are forbidden, it means you cannot post about a coin because of a bounty. This is so bad for the community.
* Do not post full articles from other sites. You can post url and mention some paragraphs, but copying an article/post in full is a copyright infringement and cannot be tolerated.
* No plagiarism: do not copy posts, or part of posts, from other users in this or another forum.OTHER IMPORTANT RULES (If you break these rules, you're risking being banned. Think before you post):
* Automated translations are not allowed
* Do not post the same topic in multiple boards, choose the most appropriate
* Critics are fine, but no trolling and no personal offence
* Please, no duplicated threads for the same coin/project/matter
* Including links in posts with sole purpose of SEO boosting other sites is forbidden
* Scam reports welcome (there's a specific board), but please post evidences
* Bumping post: you can bump your posts once. You can bump again after 48 hours, but please delete the previous bump
Some boards may have a few extra specific rules. You'll find a pinned board at the top of the board. Please make sure to read it before starting to post.
Every board has one or more moderators. You can find their names at the top of the board. Moderators are your friends, respect them. You can refer to them for problem or assistance with issue related to their specif boards. Beside that, there are some global moderators who are patrolling the whole forum.
ATTENTION: Making a lot of short posts with the sole purpose of scaling member ranking will lead to account deletion without warning! Don't be asshole! : )

Is copying other people's comment in this forum, or copying posts from other forums allowed here? I have seen some accounts doing already.

No, obviously, it is not. It you see such post, please report for prompt action.
It is allowed to re-post information from other sites when it is general interest for the community (example: an article or an official announcement), but with some limitations. Providing a link to the original source is a must, and if the content is copyright protected you can post a summary or quote a small piece of text, but you cannot re-post the whole article unless the author has authorized you to do so.

You can use the "report to moderator" link at the end of the questionable post or even better open a plagiarism report thread in this board.
