Like in the real world, there is BBC, CNN, France24, Aljazeera, ABC or sky news... I can visit it all but this will take much time so what I am actually doing is visiting a forum that offers the most important local & international news and its sources.
I don't know if the press section should only be limited to Bitcoin. If I compare it to legal or meetups subs, both could be merged in the main discussion board imo.
I respect your idea and I am aware of what is happening in this sub but regulation is the solution, we need to impose rules and let the community report infringements.
How much is known to me Press is only limited to Bitcoin news,no news regarding other altcoins shold be posted there.I can say from my personal experience that few thread I posted there was deleted, and when I ask one moderator what is the reason he say that news is not Bitcoin related.
Recenty I posted news about MyEtherWallet Hack there and thread is deleted very quick, but shortly after that other user is posted same news and it is still there :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3394552.0So it is evident that there are no rules there,it only depends of how how often moderators visit that part of forum.
Maybe to have verified representatives from those websites who are allowed to post on forum. Cuz if it is really that people use copy paste to raise their post count by posting there. Problem with news websites is that they even sometimes have similar stories such as well known news websites today. I see that not many people follow up and post there the news, but rather they post even in altcoin section or other relevant parts regarding what the news are about on the forum. So basically this is why I came up with asking this question as I haven't spotted press before. So you have more spammers regarding normal boards that post news related content (copy-paste and link).
Since you are Member on this forum I'm surprised you did not know that there is Press board,if you only once click on Bitcoin Discussion which is at the top of the forum you should definitely see that section.
