More than 60% of the topics are locked today. Wow! That is crazy. All the open topics are the dumbest bullshit ever. What is going on? Are they trying to make people leave intentionally?

Moderators are moving all the good threads to "speculation". Is it time to move the moderators ??

It's been time. They seem to do everything they can to fuck up the energy in this forum. I can't imagine it is so hard to make a much better forum and get people to move there. Anyone know of any good alternative forums?

There used to be a dam, and a little boy tried to plug the dam with his fingers,
The mod's are all part and parcel of team 'pump&dump' and they well played the past year or so, but ever since btc lost 2/3 of its gross value from $300 bill to $100 billion, a few months ago post xmas, they have zero tolerance for the denigration of btc,
This place used to be anything goes, and lots of good comments, but now, unless your doing the typical "How can I make a milon dollards' with btc in 24 hours, they just ban you, and delete, or plug the post.
This forum is largely amazon, and its most owned by alibaba china, who owns bitmain, and thus now that bitcoin is in terminal decline, all they know is to kill the people talking about the truth.

Hmm maybe you are creating FUD on your topics created ?. If that is the case , The moderators just want to protect the community of bitcointalk. Do you have screenshots of your post. so more of us can evaluate and make opinion

I am sure they are doing that on purpose? I mean most of the threads are repeated topics but in different term! Recently many topics were also created in numerous ways to ask why bitcoin is getting spiked and all the shit. Then tons of replies on the same topic everywhere. Off course they were supposed to be closed down before it gets more spammy mate! In general we see many lock downs when the threads has gotten sufficient responses. Isn't it. So why to worry anyway.

Cleaning up the garbage - in a way or another is needed. If the way it's done is faulty, I guess that you should: 1. Pinpoint the ones where you think they made a mistake. The ones I've checked had clearly low quality posts at the end. 2. Understand that admin/mods are human and can make mistakes. Imho also threads like this one should be locked. But that's my opinion and I guess that they are busy enough without that too. @First77 imho you are one of the spammers and I think that your point is not valid.

The beginner's board looks a lot better. I'll spend some time on there a bit later.
I've got a few more sMerits to give away to quality posters.

There's been a big cleanup in the frog pond as well with a lot of spam megathreads having been locked. I don't think it will make much difference though as there'll soon get replaced with new ones. The positive thing is at least they disappear out of peoples unread replies lists.

If it's a discussion about the price of bitcoin then it obviously belongs in Speculation. If you want more 'good' threads then go browse that sub. Moderators are moving all the good threads to "speculation". Is it time to move the moderators ??

If people can still get paid to post rubbish then they will continue to do so and ICOs will continue to do nothing about spam.

It's ok, that thread is surely a candidate to judge as well.

Would you rather having them trashcanned and everybody's post count decreases? if you report any garbage post when you see them, come and ask for topics to be unlocked. numbers of quality posts should be higher than garbage posts to make it a constructive topic.

All of the boards/threads you have posted pictures of seem to have only the nonsense threads locked. The threads that have been sufficiently answered and every single new response is redundant, repeated and pointless. Which of the threads you regularly visit and contribute to have been locked? I haven't seen any examples of threads that are meant to turn away the intended user-base for this forum.
If you are asking if mods are intentionally trying to make people leave, the answer is no; they are locking the threads that clutter our forum, in the hopes that people stop spamming in that way to either give incentive for people to change their posting habits or leave. I'm confused whether you were really sad to see "Buying drugs with Bitcoin." or "Bitcoin is Life" get locked, are one of those your favorite thread?

Nice to see this being done after the merit system. Merit system made some people to consider the quality of posts they were making and they improved also. But some people continued to make shit posts to increase their post count. Now that old threads are being locked, those shit posters will get helpless. This will also help users to find out useful information and relevant topics. Otherwise, it used to get crowded among so many old threads and affected search also.
One question I would like to ask here is that is it possible to make a search here that excludes all locked threads ?

Not my post - everyone's post.. I am having a feeling that the screenshot is from Bitcoin Discussion. If you look on the topics are locked, it's obvious that these topics were discussed several times. Same statement rolling and rolling with different phrase. Worried about btc future Why is the use of bitcoin is increasing Bitcoin as money Seriously! Do you really think a new discussion needed on these topics. The forum has loaded with really shit/non-sense posts and locking them or deleting them is a good thing IMO. bill gator makes good senseHope you understand.
There are several. Here's one: https://forum.bitcoin.com/You should go troll over there, but you probably wouldn't have much of an audience. Good suggestion

Be happy be at peace. Looking forward to BTC at $1M

I was surprised as well, but it just seems as the mods have been occupied cleaning the forum. There were too many repeated topics, each day we were used to having at least 5 o 6 new about merits in the Beginners board, another 5 or 6 in Meta... So it just seems like a cleaning-necessary action.

They seem to be locking threads which have a lot of replies already, it would seem. Chances are that the reason for this is because in a single topic thread, the same or similar reply has already been imputed. So repeating the same answer just makes the thread unnecessarily long.

Really, you think it could be that?
