Why are half the threads here completely ridiculous? Honestly.

[BitcoinBud44]

Half of the threads I see open here are completely ridiculous or rhetorical.  "What happens if the internet goes down", "how do I make 1 bitcoin per day"...

Is the general IQ of the Bitcoiners that low?  Are we generally stupid?  Do we need to remove post counts from people's handle?  I can go into half of the threads here and end the thread in ONE post.  It's that damn bad.

Someone is bound to find irony with this thread, but I'm raising the point regardless.  Is there not a moderation team who can lock idiotic threads upon creation? 

I'm an advocate of screening all posts on this board. 

Seriously pathetic stuff guys.

The first thing you're going to notice is that I'm wearing a Yobit signature and you might make assumptions as to why I'm posting.  A lot of folks do.  And that's exactly why these siamese-neuronal-atrophy threads get created...it's so people can up their post count and earn through sig campaigns.  That's why these dipshits start them, and that's why all of Pakistan chimes in on them.

I'm with you, bro.  There's a lot of funkiness in the air around here, but the administrators are capitalists.  Like us.

Or it could be what I bolded there.  ^^^^^^^^^

Probably they're just signature spammer or a guy who doesn't know how to use Google

[lolgato]

Most people in those threads want to earn from sig campaigns and bump up their post count.

[BitcoinBud44]

Holy **** it's nauseating though.

[Yakamoto]

Most people in those threads want to earn from sig campaigns and bump up their post count.

Most threads on this forum follow are following a similar path, there aren't a huge amount of users that are that interested in actually discussing Bitcoin, most think they know all there is to know.

So, due to this, people are simply interested in earning some additional Bitcoin through their signature campaign, as you say.

OP, this is what I'm talking about^^.  It's exactly what I said, and for as long as your thread stays open people are going to come here and say the same fucking thing over and over without reading anything that was already written.

There are probably a hundred threads about how to earn bitcoin and how does I gamble, blah blah blah.  It's like a huge shit polymer.

You can always stay away from those threads if it annoys you. It be ridiculous if you read them while you hate it. Of course if you want technical and threads where you could learn just about anything you want about bitcoin, there is trading, mining and other sections.

This forum was so much fun back in 2013 when every day you looked forward to a new alt coin being released, now a days there is a lot of scamming and spam happening, I was recently scammed out of $280 on here

What happened to your old account?

[nicked]

There are people on this forum that put anyone they believe is involved in a signature campaign on ignore.

So if I want to have an intelligent conversation on Bitcoin, where do I go for that?

That would be surprising to see you've ranked as Junior Member without knowing which section to go.
That's not an intelligent action so beware going to those intelligent section.

If you gonna stick here for a while you will learn to auto ignore certain persons and spam posts...

Luckily there are some very intelligent people posting here - just keep your eyes open

What does this even mean?  Am I supposed to be a Bitcoin-forum guru because I've posted 30 some-odd times here?  Communicate better.

Protip: beware of any poster exhibiting a paid signature, especially people with low activity (hello there). Hero members and legendary members are potentially more interesting, too, because they usually were here before paid signatures arrived, which at the very least means that they didn't come here because of paid signatures. That doesn't make them smarter or more interesting as a general law or anything, but still, there's something to dig there.
Upper sections also seem to be meeting places for spammers.
And yeah, of course, it goes without saying but: you can usually tell stupid threads from smart threads just by looking at their title, so for christ sake just be careful where you click.
Good day.

Caveat Emptor used to be the daily saying around here 

 

[trace666]

I am quite unhappy with the quality of posts on this forum nowadays myself.
Maybe getting rid of the option of signature campaigns would help to bring it back to the level of 2013.

You have partially right.

Have right because the problem you mentioned in your main post is true. To many threads are ridiculous if we see what they treat, their thoughts or their comments. But not only the authors of the threads. Even to many of them who comments on those have the same "nerve", the same "beauty" the same level of expression or thoughts. And i want to add even something else. Most of them are the most long ones.

And there where we are with your partially right. These threads cannot be and don't need to be deleted. If there are people who comment and this kind of threads are very long mean that most of the people who write here find themselves in that kind of thread. You want to exclude them from the right of expression. Cannot be made. Not everyone may have a bachelor or may have a master or more. Most of them are simple people. But with someone strong which make them important (everyone of them) for our community: their love for bitcoin and their desire to be bitcoiner. This is enough to be be fully respected in their being. In the way they are made and exist. If you don't like such threads you simply don't enter on those. If you want to comment in their threads (I made this almost always) you can try to give them something from yourself in order that the next time they create a better thread or make another better comment. Or even kidding with them: especially with them who think that are superior (on their being "stupid").

So help, acceptance and jesting and not exclusion or/and penalization. We want to be more and more and not less and less.

altcoin at that time were so strong that signature cmpaign was useless, for earning

earning with altcoin was the best thing at that time, but right now the opposite is true

as i see it is the natural step of the evolution
