Posted a poll for opinions on this in the mining section, original thread here:
Cloud mining is actually a service, much like buying shares in a mining company has very little to do with the actual mining process itself. This means that currently all cloud mining discussion should be going to the service discussion board. However the distinction is blurred due to the crossover between pooled mining services, hosted mining by manufacturers and so on. Note that I think cloud mining is a complete waste of money, but that is the sort of debate that is best relegated to such a section and my opinion will not change the fact that the number of these services and people who subscribe to them is increasing and there seems to be a need for a dedicated place to discuss them.
Should there be a dedicated subsection in the mining section? Feel free to discuss pros/cons on this thread as well.
EDIT: Cloud mining by itself does not encompass all the crossover discussion required, so as an updated proposal I'd suggest "mining services".
