Publishing same article over and over again and more...
Some people thought it would be fun to publish the same thing over and over again:
EDIT: We have removed information about the second instance, since the guy said he was sorry for doing it.
However, we're adding a check to published articles, so you will not be able to republish article that is too similar to your previous ones. 👆 That's the explanation why.
But we also discovered something even more interesting, which is harder to deal with (well, the user is banned of course, but the question is how to automate detecting this crap):
Basically, posting nonsense every minute. Interestingly enough most of these come from some obscure source that you can't find on the Internet (article spinning I guess?). That's interesting. The user is banned and will not be paid for his or her 4000(!) points for today.
He/she actually even had a second account @rajonmollik , but I won't bore you -the screenshot is basically the same.
The game continues. Happy spamming! :)
We won't accept articles that are copies - this is totally unfair to people who actually write articles.
Even if you have published and the un-published that article.
Even if you do it from another account.
Hi all, I wish to publish a post but am told that it similar to another post I published though this is not true. Is it possible to bypass the error and publish the post I wish to publish?
