Title: Please remove these stickies Post by: Big Time Coin on September 02, 2011, 04:44:42 AM http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/6186/unstickyplz.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/856/unstickyplz.jpg/)
Uploaded with ImageShack.us (http://imageshack.us) First place people come to is this Bitcoin Discussion category b/c it has the most posts. And how do we welcome them? By scaring the bejesus out of them with MTGOX COMPROMISED TROJAN. :-[ The transaction volume thread has no excuse for being stickied. In any case, I'm sure a large number of people, many thousands, have come to this forum to learn about bitcoin, clicked on Bitcoin Discussion b/c it is the most active board, spent about 15 seconds total and thought "forget this". I know why they were stickied, back when they were news, so people would stop duping threads about this crap. Now its been more than a month, people are not starting new threads, so it's time to UN-sticky and stop scaring away all the newbs. Title: Re: Please remove these stickies Post by: wolftaur on September 02, 2011, 04:47:24 AM I agree. And while the trojan info is probably still relevant, perhaps some security info should be in "New to bitcoin? Start here!" (If it already is, ignore that part, I never read that. I was already doing bitcoin for a good while before I came here.)
