Why did you remove the “How do I start mining monero?” post?

Because the OP may have been a child? Or simply because it should have been asked in Monero Mining rather than in Monero? Or perhaps because the question was trivial (too basic)?

While I do feel (a few more) rules are necessary here, I’d like them to be explicit and transparent, if possible. Thank you.

its not in the modlog, so I think the original poster removed their own post.

A shame since it got a ton of engagement.

It would have been exciting if he commented like “I think it’s working now.” then “I got my first xmr!” Vivid documentation from the point of the view of a first-time miner…

Also, while @[email protected] may have been a troll, they happened to ask a good question: Why does anyone want to use a Tor exit node in a specific country? Apparently the OP deleted the post before anyone answers that question.

@Saki @monerobull Huh? You mean me?
I didn't delete anything, more likely I removed duplicated post. Am I OP you mean about?

No, the original poster (the kid) deleted the whole thing—his post with all the comments (including yours) to it. Anyone is free to delete their own post(s) and/or comment(s) anytime.

He could have just created a new temp account anonymously e.g. via Tails, instead of using his “real” (main) one, using a random, generic instance & nick, and asked questions more vaguely, like “Do I need to share any of my personal info to mine Moneo, like name, phone number, DOB, or something like that?” Then no one would have known anything about him, perhaps better for him that way for protecting secrecy. Just a thought…

@Saki Wow.. I don't know why they had to go through that much trouble, but it's kinda BadAss. 🔥🤘
