Goal post shifted. Prior commitment void.
@georgem, we need some dates so we know when we can expect to get more BTC. This waiting is like:
Right at this moment I can only tell you this:
soonz your moniez will multipliez!The community forum
http://spreadcointalk.org would do exactly that "bringing people back together, instead of being scattered and divided." I'm not saying stopping this thread (the jungle), I can see the appeal to a point. But, if the overall goal of this community is to succeed as a top10coin in the work place, then it needs to grow a healthy community. I don't believe this can be done here, it's a jungle.
When this coin goes big, and it will, organisation are going to come and look at what SPR is about. Do you want them to find the "Jungle" or a well defined community, mature, with a good flow of information that is easy to find and digest, instead of having to trawl through 100's of post, most of which are little help?
Imho self-mod is more like a well balanced community of like minded people, nothing wrong with that. Without rules/self-mod you are only left with anarchy (the jungle).
No big players, say MS, will entertain us if we have a free for all with the "ISIS brand" popping up all the time (that goes for all coins actually). We do need to control our "Brand" for our future image.
I understand "FoS" and that can be had as long as basic forum etiquette is acted upon, respect for all, it works both ways that one. Remove the bloody flag and tag.
Taken from another forum that I use (
xrpchat.com), some basic etiquette, short and simple to follow. It does work, see for yourselves:
It should go without saying that we all want a forum that encourages free debate and healthy discussion. However there are lines that must be drawn. XRPchat will not accept:
flaming or insulting other members
excessive swearing
doxxing of ANY kind (i.e posting personally identifiable information)
disrespect towards forum users, Ripple employees or others in general
Suggesting or attempting to get other users to make their secret key public
Lets keep things positive and on topic, even if its criticism.
Again, we had this exact same discussion a year ago.
Did Darkcoin/Dash ever require a self-moderated thread? No.
Does any other respectable coin/community care so much about trolls/weirdos that they need to revert back to a
"safe space"?
It says alot about a community if they let trolls have so much power over them.
We are above that.
Or do you want to be this guy?
