[FOR ADMINS] An Open Letter to Bitcointalk.org Admins Regarding Ponzi Schemes

[ninjaboon]

bitcointalk should not allow any cloudmining or gambling advertisments. Just hardware manufactors/sellers. It's easy as that. Problem solved.

Wrong!
Hardware manufacturers and sellers scammed too. As an example...Have you never heard of BFL?

let's add BFL, some say BA and also Alpha Tech.

This topic has gone astray and no longer serves it's initial purpose of discussing the advertising of services which use within their "BRAND NAME" a word which definition is FRAUD.

Any company can run a scam, rob, or steal from their customers. But when someone sets up a service and associates it with the overall movement of virtual currencies - of which are already under fierce fire from countless groups all with their own personal agenda, my point was simply that these posts/services/ads are only ammunition for killing cryptos or further tarnishing the communities reputation.

I thank the forum mods, Heros, Legendarys and all those who added constructive input to this topic. I am sure it will be discussed elsewhere. I have come across posts in just the last week where people who used to frequent the Gambling Forum on BCT have abandoned it altogether because of the flood of Ponzi advertisements.

I am sure eventually something will be done. It would have been nice to hear from Theymos on the issue - as I personally; and I feel I am not alone, consider this an important issue that needs to be addressed by the forum's top leadership.

Regardless, let's continue this debate elsewhere. This thread is now locked.

Regards,
