RANT: ICO Announcement Threads

[panorama]

Does anyone else get frustrated with the amount of pointless chatter in Announcement threads? You can literally have 100 pages of comments with very little substance, so posts with real comments/questions for the development team get missed and go unanswered.

People are paid to post and keep threads bumped.

What do you expect?

I know why it's happening so I'm not surprised or confused by it, but it's still frustrating.

Yeah, ofc., but I noticed that this appears to be a general "problem" in CryptoSpace...have you ever been to a Telegram group (mostly for some ICO Project)?
The stupidity of some people is ridiculous!!

This is, IMO, one of the biggest problems!

Exactly. Even if my question has been asked before, I'm not going to read through 100 pages of fluff to find out. But if I post a question it ends up getting lost because no one else is reading it for the same reason.

These signature campaigns are what's really to blame.

Sadly that's how it works.

You are always going to get a few morons posting stupid comments instead of actually looking at the information and whitepaper.

And on the other hand, it's beneficial for the owner of the thread to have it active so it goes to the top of the page so more people click on it and see their ICO.

It's a horrible combination.

Yeah, I saw that. Staying on top of everything in the crypto space feeks like a full time job now.
