btc-e chatroom politics

[Viscera]

I want to share with others why the btc-e chatroom has gone from being my go to place for news about new crypto coins and technology to being a paranoid freak show with "mods" who arbitrarily ban people for chatting about coins not listed on their exchange, but still talk about other coins themselves and can't see the hypocrisy. (or think we are too dum to notice)

I found out about XPM before it was listed on btc-e, the mods didn't like having everyone begging for it to be listed but at least there where no bans back then, eventually it was listed!!!

If your going to ban topics, wouldn't it make more sense to ban people for discussing religion? or politics? but then again, what if they are all connected and it really doesn't make sense to ban anything. Even swearing is arbitrary isn't it? Jesus/ChristCoin or Liberal/LaborCoin could be banned, but that's not going to stop a true Crypto

Anyway, for the purpose of educating myself and the community on what others think in this regard, I've organized a small poll for those interested in sharing their opinion.

personally I have banned for a week by a mod who continually shows that the power to ban people has gone to his head, he sounded like he was threatening me (he assured me he wasn't but it's too late now). I feel a lot lest trust in this site, I am afraid if they can arbitrarily ban people from speaking then what's to stop them from arbitrarily stopping people from trading?

I've been a long time customer of btc-e, but I just don't trust them anymore.


Feel free to share your own opinions about the mods in this thread, but lets try to keep it civil.

edit.

As I watch the discussion I've been taking some notes,

Things you can say on btc-e that won't get you banned


syphilis

stop playing with your dicks boys

i made all this fuqing money

checking my pinus now.....ahhh I have syphilis

"ponzi scheme"

wait a second! you are not gay by any chance and you are trying to trick us to use our virgins bums?

I've heard of hamsters but they go up a larger cavity

this is too good to be true, my pinus wants to go to brazil but my bum do not trust you!



Things you will be banned for mentioning,


DGC, PTS, DOGE, Crypsty is better, BTE

Why can't we talk about coins not listed here?

one of the worst trading systems i have ever seen xd

the charts here suck

when will you improve the stats here?



I'll try to add things as we go... feel free to add your own experiences

Since they banned people for mentioning DOGe, I rarely speak there. It is stupid and unprofessional to ban. It happens when kids get too much power.

Thanks, it's nice to know someone else sees it as unprofessional

thats a trollbox full of retards ... i never read that sh*t

[kkaspar]

I recently moved my funds out of BTC-E and one reason was also because the trollbox isn't what it used to be. It used to be so, that the chatroom operators were neutral and only banned people who spammed or posted their scamsites. Now the banning is based of their personal taste on how they like someone or some subject. There are also tons of people who are actually kissing the operators asses, and if you ask why did someone get banned then there will be answers like "Ah, you want some too?". Because of this, it feels more like a chatroom that is run by teens with an inferiority complex. I can handle all the trolls, because they can be entertaining, but when the chatroom operators start getting their pleasures with practicing authority, then the environment isn't for me.

I was on the verge of leaving BTC-E about a year ago when they FINALLY woke up and added an API.

Haven't had to look at the trollbox since.

The trollbox is really entertaining. Makes trading a lot more fun. Also it is a good source of recent news. Not all conversations are fully 100% retarded.

I can't see ANY recent news that is relevant anymore. Every time someone tries to talk about some new crypto, (which I consider news) they get banned. I mean, we can't even ask, "so what algo is DOGE?" without getting banned... I mean, how can anyone support that kind of  banning of legitimate crypto discussion while allowing people to talk about effing their gay buddies?

I don't think I've seen ANY recent news there since the whole troll box was begging for XPM... we got it too... but now you try begging for a new currency and you just get banned, so no one is going to talk about the latest and greatest on btc-e, it's all down hill from here I'm afraid.
