Considering there are actual investor based games out there, why does this board continue on with the investor based games title? I understand why these HYIP advertisements/topics would end up in the gambling section. That's the obvious place for them. The part that is driving me crazy is the obvious joke in the board's description.
Investor-based games
Games where the main factor is whether or not new "investors" join the game. Also any Bitcoin-denominated investment product with an APY far above the reasonable market rate.
This just doesn't fit in with the overall snooty, stick up the butt type of forum moderation I've grown accustomed to here at BTCT. Why not call it what it is? For a few reasons.
- 1. People who don't know too much about the forum might totally overlook the entire board.
- 2. There are actually investor based games that all show up on a different board.
This is the HYIP Board, moderators and admins, It's funny to me that this keeps on keepin' on while you go around deleting and belittling people for posting theirs in the wrong section. That doesn't describe all the moderators of course. I'm just generalizing there. I've come across a few mods that have had their butt stick removed, and they are very helpful. Well, I'd say there's my two cents but since we are in crypto-land....... There's my two Satoshi.
Now I have to go post something happy to make sure I don't turn into one of you disagreeable, know-it-all thread crawlers.
You are absolutely right. There are alot of new people who see this board, and think some of the sites here are legit. Especially when you're logged out, you can't see the red trust of the OP of the ponzi.
Furthermore this board has several users in it which are constantly making new accounts to make new ponzis, they don't pay out a single user, it's not a game, it's not a HYIP, it's a scam.
Then you have the people which are constantly making threads with ponzi's in them, using ref links. These get removed quite often, which is good, but they are now circumventing the rule by linking their own 0.88$ domain which redirects to the ponzi with his ref link.
This is pretty funny, and even a bold topic if I may say so. I have often wondered why certain sections have been eithe named in a mismatched, overly-wordy way, or as you pointed out on the investment gaming title, absolutely opposite of its intended identity. Hey, you should understand with all your years of building awesome stuff, because you use tool called a "square " every day and it's actually shaped like a triangle. Why let the tools have their names all wacky but the poor, helpless, innocent, seldom-nitpicky moderators here get the wrath of your disapproval? Just kidding, I totally agree and I do think your comic tone is on point, but also, I wondered the same darn thing as you. Let's see some investment GAMING topics in the investment GAMING area. Or maybe I Will have no choice but to start a poll asking what color nail polish is best, then I will post it in the mining area. That would be well aligned with the current trend.
Thanks for continuing to bring humor to the stuff swept under the rug. The shag carpet, from the 60's. Just because!
