These situations are always quite complicated. I've used to watch DASH back when it was still DRK and I can only say that there was trolling and attacking even then. It might be worse now than it was. People are fighting over these tiny market coins like kids fighting over toys. Just imagine what would happen if it was more peaceful and people were actually working together (I guess this shows the average age/maturity of such people). If you think that someone or a group of people is just posting to troll (no useful content) you could summarize evidence and PM the moderator of that section and directly talk to him.

What i cannot understand here among other things is this dash story... Defenders vs attackers... Poll here, flaming topic there...
I would stay in the middle and say if someone don't like this coin or he thinks it is kind of scam, he only has to neglect it or put only 1 warning then simply go...Finally he will not loose anything and he ''warned'' the others.
(sorry if my post interrupts something here but this ''battle'' should end)
To summarize my position about this issue:
Some people in Bitcointalk think that Dash is a scam, an illegitimate coin that deserves to disappear. Almost all the usual critics are from the Monero currency community. There are some legitimate non-trolling debate (which is good) and people like smooth (dev of Monero) is a reader and post regularly in the Dash thread or in the altcoin section just to express critical opinions about Dash. No problem here.
The problem is the escalation of some Monero supporters against Dash. People like Icebreaker, The Dasher, Adam (DrkLvr_ now). The problem is they are incapable of discredit the Dash currency enough to make the project fail. Most of the Dash community don't care what they say, or they disagree in what is a scam or not, "bad" or "good" anonymity, "bad" or "good" crypto. People like me and many others.
Despite all their efforts Dash is doing fine, the devs are working and delivering, price is stable, etc... And all these people are really angry. Maybe is because they believe the dash currency deserve to dissapear. Maybe is because some people invested a lot of money in the Monero currency, and they think Dash is the obstacle against his success. Or they belive they are vigilantes of crypto. Believe the explanation you want, I have my own opinion.
That's the reason I started this topic in the meta section, with one very extreme case of troll: "the Dasher". Just to express a real concern.
I think some of the usual trolls are paid people. I think is impossible to have so much hate to post 4,5 per day against something.
With the responses of "Icebreaker" in this theread you can see the kind of people we are dealing with.
I really like Bitcointalk. I love the international vibe we have here. In just one place you can follow all kind of devs and projects.
And I agree with InvoKing, this infantile war should stop.
Dash is not going to disappear. No matter the hard you can troll or fud. Sorry. If you don't like is ok. Don't buy and criticize it , but always in a reasonable way.
