Title: FUD section Post by: yogi on February 25, 2014, 12:44:59 AM I feel that a large number of good threads and posts are getting buried under an avalanche of FUD. I was thinking it would be nice to have a FUD section for any unsubstantiated posts that are potentially created for the purposes of manipulation the market.
But what does everyone else think? Title: Re: FUD section Post by: Skoupi on February 25, 2014, 12:48:48 AM Well it's fud or shitcoin threads... And i 'm not sure about what i prefer between the two..

I would have no problem with labelling shitcoin promotions as FUD. Title: Re: FUD section Post by: lasciv on February 25, 2014, 01:27:11 AM Only the main forum or the alt section as well?
I don't think anyone's gonna bother, regardless the outcome. edit: if they want to manipulate, they're just gonna sugar coat it. :-* Title: Re: FUD section Post by: Thylacine on February 25, 2014, 11:08:07 AM "Speculation" has become a joke.
Every other post is a retarded "$3 BY END OF WEEK, TRUST ME I KNOW!" or "OBAMA JOINS BITCOIN FOUNDATION, 2 DA MOON!" (followed by - "Wouldn't that be nice hay guyzz amirite?!!!" in the post body) Can you just make a dedicated FUD (and err.. anti-FUD) forum and permanently move all these crap threads to die there. People will get the picture soon enough? Title: Re: FUD section Post by: greyhawk on February 25, 2014, 11:16:04 AM They're waiting for you, Gordon, in the echo chamber.
Title: Re: FUD section Post by: hilariousandco on February 25, 2014, 11:16:38 AM Isn't the Speculation forum the FUD forum? :D I think some place to put obvious troll posts or FUD could be a good idea though. However, half of the time you can't tell between a genuine moronic newb question and someone trolling.

Most speculation threads are exactly that; speculation. Yeah but so many of them are just sensationalist post titles and troll content or terrible manipulation rally attempts. Admittedly Speculation has had it's fair share of stupidity, but I feel the honest / dishonest thread ratio is getting worse of late. Anyway, modding is probably never a walk in the park to get the balance right, just weighing in my 2c. |
