Hello. Welcome to Bitcointalk. Please do not visit the cave to the south. There is a badbear in there.
There's also a grue lurking around somewhere in the dark.
You're likely to be eaten by it.
In all fairness, spamming is annoying, but can't you use the ignore button?
IMO the problem is not what I (or another user) see but what non-bitcoiners see when they lurk the forum
Yes, people sometimes have a very negative initial impression of BTC.
