Please can we discourage Twitter references on the beginners board.

I was saddened to see this post in one of the threads on the beginners' board.

Any recommendations on good people to follow on twitter?

I thought that the objective of Bitcoin Talk was to help people who are new to Bitcoin, and not to recommend other sites for learning and discussion. Has Bitcoin Talk immersed itself so far into the cesspit of bounty hunting, that people have to make posts like the above? I'm shocked by the number of advice posts on YouTube and Steemit that promote Bitcoin Talk as the venue to earn money by promoting scam coins and ponzi schemes.

Are there any Bitcoin bear market seasoned veterans who can share some words of wisdom or advice to a bitcoin newbie experiencing a bitcoin bear market for the first time?

It's a shame that people think they will be able to get info about Bitcoin on twitter or other social media rather than BitcoinTalk. The reason is to much garbage topics floating around here that Bitcoin discussion board is losing it's value.

I think you should try look at this objectively because I'm not sure why this is an issue or can't be asked here. Bitcointalk is probably the best place that you can get any sort of information on bitcoin and anything related to it so these questions are bound to be asked. Sure, people come here just to try earn some money or ask for other sources to do that, but many others also come here for valuable help directly related. What would you like us to do exactly? Block or trash any mention of twitter or any suggestions for other sites? I think there's bigger issues to worry about here.

I agree that some people come here to find out about Bitcoin and crypto, but these people are coming here to ask which boards, and which people to follow, to find out about Bitcoin, and the suggested answers are not  here on Bitcoin Talk. They are leeching quality members, because some people are now saying that BT is not the place to talk about crypto. I don't agree, and there are good posts and helpful members here, but sometimes it can be hard to find them because of all of the low level account farming posts.
