Indeed, and moving all altcoin to just one forum topic made it clear what the identity was. Now it's diluted as a result of altcoin starting to have subforums. Better to just move all altcoin discussion straight to trashcan and be done with.
The subforums in the Altcoin section were a favor to me by Theymos, they don't mean that this is now Crypto Currency Talk.
Coming from the guy who sticks up for the alt coin section more than anyone else, it irritates the hell out of me when Theymos throws us a bone, and people decide to ask for more.
The Alternate Currencies section is all you get, its intention is so that you can have BASIC conversation about Alt Currencies, and then you can have your more in depth conversation at your own respective forums. You get sub forums so that people requesting hardware help aren't flooded by giveaway and announcement threads. This kind of stupidness is what brings up the question, "Should we remove the Alternate Currencies section altogether?" I hope the answer is no, but people that are trying to convert the Bitcoin users here into Altcoin users, rather than just staying in your own section is what irritates people and ruins it for all of us.
The people are here at Bitcointalk for Bitcoins, if you want to have a conversation about *insert coin name* I doubt anyone would mind if you keep it out of their way, say in a secluded Alternate Currencies section. But then you get in their faces with it anyway, and they get mad and its ruined for everyone that wants to partake in Alt Coin conversations.
