Title: A lot of new people on these forums
Post by: ironstove on April 17, 2013, 11:59:12 AM
Should not be posting, let alone creating new topics and wasting my time to read through them.

Please stop talking unless you have something important or insightful to say. This is not a Q&A forum meant to give out financial advice.

Don't worry, I didn't miss the irony  ::)

I'm not one to complain, but I did notice around the time of the crash we had OODLES of newbies joining and lamenting the death of bitcoin... then they suddenly disappeared.

Oh god it was painful. I couldn't stand those disgusting newbs. I don't care about newbs, but a bunch of idiots that swarm in to scream and spread nothing but FUD was just filthy. This place became a septic tank for a couple days. I've been enjoying this forum since they got flushed out of the system.

And then I found the magic "ignore" button. I never used it in my life before though I visit a lot of forums. But here it was just too much  :o

They may only have 7 posts, but look at the date registered. Also, deleting old posts reduces your post count.

CAN YOU LOAN ME 50BTC? The bank wont do it cause I'm a credit risk.

CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT COMPUTER BUTTONS TO PUSH SO THAT I BECOME RICH?

I HAVE DETERMINED THAT BITCOIN WILL FAIL BECAUSE...

Oh yes, I was looking at all of the registration dates for the newbs I had issues with. Most were from late March and early April 2013.

I still have 0 people on ignore... Most people worth ignoring disappear in a week or two.  Those that don't improve their post quality.
