Imagine if bitcoin was all in one sub-forum.
That is entirely the point of having a single altcoin section. If it's sufficiently inconvienient to discuss altcoins here maybe they'll move to their own forum. I think bothering to create their own forum is too much work for some of these altcoin developers. And all these altcoin forums are usually dead anyway. Even Litcoin's forum gets hardly any activity. I consider that most of them are coming here because of the already established forum ,with lots of members looking for some quick cash from mining , targeted customers I would say. If they start their own forum , it will take them a few years to gain the popularity they can achieve here with 10 shills and 2 giveaways from their premined coins.

Even though Dogecoin has its own site and apparently "incredible active community", I think the main development or help is dished out via the Dogecoin thread in Alt Currencies here, so that's why we get all these stupid newbs posting their nonsense to get out of newbie jail so they can ask their stupid questions in that forum.

A lot of coins have special features, Litecoin was the first to use Scrypt
Tenebrix was the first to use scrypt, then Fairbrix, and then Litecoin. Are you sure? I remember mining Tenebrix in terms of Megahash. *Edit* Nope, you are right, Tenebrix was Sept 25th 2011, Fairbrix was Oct 2nd 2011, and Litecoin was Oct 9th 2011, and yes they are all scrypt. Anyway, yeah subforums would be lovely, but I don't think we are going to get them. I've lost count of how many times its been asked for. And yes, That is entirely the point of having a single altcoin section. If it's sufficiently inconvienient to discuss altcoins here maybe they'll move to their own forum.
That is the point of not adding features to the Alt Coin section. If you want a place to discuss your coin in depth, to its own forum you should go.

Maybe when new users create an account on this forum the altcoin area should be added to their ignore board list by default, so they have to opt in to see it.

Unlike coin specific forums. That's the beauty of Bitcointalk, it's the epicentre of crypto world.

It's time create Altcoin-Subforum for "Giveaways". Even for in altcoins interested people its impossible to read, because of 100.000 giveaway-threads.
I second that. Maybe another subforum for Altcoin services too.

Sorry, I should have used this topic instead of created my own --
I think, even though this is a bitcoin forum first, we have to recognize two things: 1) Altcoins MUST start and maintain a thread here, or they are considered shady 2) Altcoins need Bitcoin, and Bitcoin needs altcoins. Altcoins are worthless without bitcoin, and Bitcoin's growth is stunted without altcoins.
Right now the altcoin area is a complete cesspool disaster, and I feel somewhat responsible (sorry...), so I think it would be good to at least have a subforum for, say, giveaways. And maybe speculation or something like that.

Did you have a personal discussion with mister Bitcoin and he told you that? The only argument I have ever seen about the alt is that they increase popularity of cryptos in general. But this sometimes is a double edge sword. From being called a ponzi scheme by a few to being called a joke by half of the world , I prefer the ponzi label for cryptos.
