No offense, but why would you be annoyed? Wouldn't you feel proud to know other people are trying to measure up to you, and try to mimic your awesomeness? I would be proud.

Seeing all these new coins is such a big hazard *ehem*

If it works, it works. If its worthless but if it works, it's not spam, no matter how much a joke.

Fake coin threads are actual spam.


If anything, there should be a screening for coins, and perhaps color-tagged if the coin offers either no economy in the works or already out, or has no innovation in the code itself.

I agree  or even a subforum for new coins....

Yes, because the site owners could be doing other things, banning people, and also labeling people as scammers.

Sure, let's make a screening, yup. Let's tire the moderators or admins a little more. Such fun.

Good luck with that.

Can't wait to see so many trolls spamming the screen.
Admins and mods, please use this idea.

This sub-forum is basically un-moderated and anything goes. None of them give a shit otherwise they would've given us sub-forums to play with and not have such a mess.

I don't think the poster should be banned but if someone posts a thread for a coin which does not include an actual coin and blockchain the post should be deleted as spam.

Of course all the clone coins will still be in the forum but at least it'll cut out the other 50% of posts which aren't even coins at all!

Not sure they have to banned, but some subsection for new coins should be added to reduce this clutter madness!
