[onyebuchi81]

My phone is lighting up with slack notifications from scammers. Seems like every ICO is unable to close the vulnerability.

What are your thoughts on running an ICO and simply skipping slack as a social channel? Do people even care about slack when there's bitcointalk, telegram, discord, etc.?

Yes im also thinking that its possible to run an ICO without slack because there is bitcointalk forum but its hard to communicate here, why not using messnger?

There are so many phising attempts on slack and This one could break the trust of the user to this app and same as me maybe those slack user will go away and shift to use the other messaging app. And for now the best alternative for them is the telegram and also I'm waiting for the official release of the crypviser app since I think that one is more secured than anything else here.

Slack admittedly is turning to noise when it comes to ICO scams, but if ICOs start to disengage from it and stop using it then something else will surface and replace slack and here we will be talking about something like this again. Only with stricter regulations by the administrators of such entities there will be a permanent solution.

I think its happen to everybody who join slack becouse of ico. There are many scammers on slack channel. Slack always send message even every second and thats so annoying. Better ico is without slack

[footballcrazy]

I think ICO's should continue using Slack, the more channels the better and Slack is easy to use.

I just think that they should have numerous channels such as all social medias, telegram, slack, bitcointalk and other forums. That way people can use whatever media they choose.

You can definitely run an ICO without Slack being one of the communication channels (beside others of course) but it's become like a 'consensus' to use it, at least, as the 'Technical' chat room where the potential ICO investors can meet up with the developers and ask all kind of questions they need to ask.

Yes the scammers suck, but slack is still very nice. Its a good way to keep up to date with the community. It is also good for giveaways and special live events. Hopefully something can be done about the spam, but slack should still stay as an important role.

Since scammers have invaded Slack platform then there is an issue. Credibility of information is then not certain and all the phishing attacks which is most annoying. ICO can do without slack for that reason. There are other alternative means of communications on social media platform .Telegram channel works so well. Twitter and face book can be use as well to relay valid and much needed information to customers and prospects.

IMO, slack is just a channel for communication. Since there are many scams in slack, it will be better for ICO to do without slack.

yes im agree there is too many scam in slack. and they are use an alias that seems similar to dev of ico and admin of slack. i believe we better use telegram rather than slack. cause investor need a source of information and telegram seems good with the bot which is helpfull for member to know basic information.

Yes i have seen many scam publication in slack in all the projects, and that's why some projects like paypie who change slack with telegram, and I think thats better

There is nothing wrong with using slack as it makes it easier for the team to form and bond, communicate in real time and at the same time be able to supervise the activities then release privilege information about the coordination of activities. The forum on the other hand is a platform to showcase their activities to the community then be ready for probe, analysis, argument and counter arguments and the determining factor as to whether the project will be successful or not.

wow .. i think i just get spam and scamer from email slack, i am very confused before, because almost all ico project that i follow do scam and spam to my email, ... i hope this problem can be solved soon

[bhoybitcoin]

Same goes with me. Spamming of messages from different Ico slacks it does really annoying. There are certain ICOs that doesn't have a slack but still their project goes well. So why do some ico still need a slack?

[March21]

I'm sure ico without slack is better, a lot of activity on slack that causes spam and also many who spread phishing sites. some ico using slack now switch using telegram. and it's better than ever

[bitorama]

Slack is dead for ICOs, prefer telegram or discord

[feelideb]

ICO keep insisting on using slack while they put their prospect account in jeopardy. Except there some sort of reward attached to using slack, I usually don't touch it.

There have always been huge complaints about slack and it is obvious a whole lot of devs have noticed this and have started moving straight to telegram instead. Apparently it has already affected the trust of their users gradually and this is bad.

Many ICOs recently has been closing down their slack channels and annoucing it on their sites that they do not want to support slack anymore, while new projects doesn't even open them. I think for now the general community communication will take place on telegram channels or subreddits.
