Human came over apes because they were able to pass over that rock solid ape brain == head bucket.... ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) You could have at least provided constructive input when replying to this thread. I'm not even sure what you're trying to say. While bigger blocks obviously result in more resource usage, that effect doesn't have to be noticeable to most nodes.
I truly have no idea who would notice 2x (or more) resource usage. This seems to be the definition of a 'marginal increase'! ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

What is the point in this forum if everyone gets red/negative trust?
You are encouraging people to invest into this kind of websites in the second part of your post. Why don't mods just remove it and ban hyip altogether?
Trust isn't moderated (excluding extreme cases of abuse). Why 'HYIP' isn't going to be removed is fairly complex question to which I can't provide an answer to. IIRC sometime in the past this section didn't exist.

So no direct action against your farmed accounts.
Preventing spam is *direct action*. You need to understand the staff ranking system. This is the part I'm referring to, it bugs me quite a bit when I read it. The creation of General threads was thought off by Mitchell and Lauda, discussed with Cyrus and approved by theymos. What's wrong with it? I posted it primarily so that I could edit it myself.

Auction Rules:Minimum bid: 0.2 BTC Minimum increment: 0.02 BTC End time: October, 2nd 6 PM Forum time (UTC). Bids should be evenly divisible. No sniping: Each bid made in the last 15 minutes of the auction will prolong the auction time by 15 minutes.

But as Lauda said, it has been reported and nothing gets done.
I didn't exactly say "nothing" has been done. My initial sentence was wrongful, as a decent amount of threads were handled by Cyrus during the time in which they were a global moderator (I had forgotten about it). However, generally I'm unsatisfied with the situation regarding the low quality posts that we've seen in 2016. The beginners and help sub-forum. What a hell hole. Good luck finding useful beginner info there
We have been activelly planing a way to 'combat' the problem since that section is very important. Today we have started executing our plan. You can read about it in this thread. The idea was Mitchell's.

What is a General thread?This is the another of (probably) many general threads that will be created in this subsection. A General thread will contain relevant information related to the question/subject of the title thus duplicate threads related to it are not allowed. Posts within a general thread will be harshly moderated and anything remotely useless will be removed. These threads are supposed to be informational, and reposting similar information multiple times is not allowed. You are free to discuss information that has been posted, but keep it short and civil (more than 5 replies is too much). Questions about information provided in this thread are not allowed either. For example, a post like the one below will be removed as we are not here to babysit. Please do your own research and look in the appropriate sections for answers. How can I earn Bitcoins by trading altcoins? What are General threads for?General threads are meant to be used as an overview of useful information and to prevent unnecessary duplicate threads within the section. After 10 pages this thread will be closed and a " [General] How to earn Bitcoins - Part n+1" will be created, which will contain an updated list of good information. This process will constantly be repeated. The reason that this approach was chosen is to prevent long threads in which people don't find what they are looking for and to provide the most up-to-date information.
Useful links/postsThere are a few ways to earn Bitcoins, which differ in both skill and effort. A few things you can try: We have also compiled a list of URL's that are useful to read or related to the items posted above: Note: Please do not create posts such as " I think this is a great idea" as they are insubstantial and will be removed. The staff will start moving " How to earn Bitcoin"-threads to the Trashcan (but we will lock them first) and we ask you to report threads that we missed within the last 10 pages.

This offer doesn't make sense to me, as in it has not been clearly explained. What's the duration of the contract, a week, a month?

Why is the starting bid so unusually high? Is that your reserve price or something?

Is the donator status still priced at 1BTC?
No, it was never priced at 1 BTC: If you donate 10 BTC, you can get a special "Donator" title and a green "who's online" color.
If so, should that be lowered to the current price range of a Bitcoin? Or probably changed it to a USD value instead, to properly reflect a better price for donating.
This was already discussed several times and is likely not going to happen. You should use the search engine to find the past discussions about it. What do you guys think?
I don't think that it should be lowered. 1 BTC = 1 BTC.
Source: Donate.

the current ACTUAL debate is consensual '2base-4mbweight' buffer increase by EVERYONE in the community releasing an implementation. so that fans of any implementation can all happily stick with their favourites and still have the open choice to decentrally vote in or out of a safe increase of capacity, while not hindering segwit either, or having to change to another "brand" yes this means the quadratics doomsday is also a moot point because segwit still gets to work
I honestly have read this post three times by now, and still fail to understand what you've wanted to say with it. Not because of "technicalities", but because the flawed construct of all those sentences. You should really rephrase everything.

Yeah it's a privately owned forum, but it's the main forum for bitcoin, and it would be good for the benefit of all bitcoin users if this forum remained neutral.
I disagree with your view of "main forum" here. It surely is the most used forum, however you aren't creating any arguments for your case actually. If users wanted a more "neutral" environment (whatever this is supposed to mean), they'd simply start using one. That's how these things usually work, nobody is forcing you to stay nor leave. The fact that this forum is not neutral is very worrying, is this is already a first step in centralizing bitcoin.
No, it's not worrying at all. Besides, this isn't the thread here. You should probably keep this consistent to the thread that you've made in Meta.
This should be about a potential fork (although we drifted away from time to time).
