Well, one thing that I can say about the Beginners and Help section. It seems a lot more palatable to read than it was the last time I checked it. The last time I checked it is when people were demoted to newbie because they didn't have even 1 merit. It was filled with people basically begging for merit. I'm not certain if the reason it is actually worth reading now is because the mod(s) for that job have done a good job keeping it clean or if I just picked a wrong time to start reading it in the past.
Again...newbie or not a valid question was asked and deleted. This not a mistake it's an incompetent Mod.
Well, I think the mod that moved the topic to mining was trying to be helpful and move the topic to where the newbie could get expert answers. Unfortunately, the mining board has rules, and this thread broke one of them.
6. All virtual mining - such as cloud mining, purchasing hashrate etc. is a service and NOT bitcoin mining. Discussion regarding cloud mining, contracts, hosting services, renting hashrate etc. belong in the economic services subforum and not the mining subsection.
If this is truly the case,I don't see why is there a need to delete the thread instead of moving to the relevant section. Its not like moving a thread is much more modwork, then deleting one. The hate for the mods in the mining section is growing, they are strict, I get it, but for the wrong board.
Have them mod the bitcoin discussion board, or off-topic board and then see how the clusterfuck of spam posts goes down.
