New rules and restrictions

[KWH]

I will say one thing if you click your, "Show unread posts since last vist" The amount of [ANN]bullshitcoin, crapcoin, dumbasscoin, ext is very very ridiculous. I can only guess some fool made a opensouce coin code and every stupid newb is doing it just like the ponzi's.

Between the splurge of ponzi's and altcrapcoins, its hard to filter through to find post of substance.

Ignore that particular board.

We dont need new rules, we as a community can make a vow as of right now to not touch any new coin that obviously doesn't bring anything new to the table. This would include a community ban on IPOs with the exception of being grandfathered in (ethereum). If we don't soon, almost all alts not in the top 20 are doomed.

How do you ignore a whole board? I have never seen a option for this, if you mean just don't look at the post that does not work when you are reading the the "Show unread posts since last visit" button. I like to read what has been posted since my last visit, just not see [ANN] dumbasscoin x16

about 50% of new post involve altcoins so much for "bitcointalk" lol

Simple as this.

Usually it's hard to do with altcoin threads going around in the Beginners subforum. Are they even allowed there?

No.

So reporting them would be the best solution, am I wrong?

Yes, report any alt coin threads outside alt currencies, including beginners.  I see several types there that shouldn't be. Currency exchange, gambling, services. Report em all, don't let those mods start slacking.

This isn't directed at you, just a general PSA, when reporting miscategorized posts don't just say wrong forum as the reason if you can help it, because if it gets moved, but the report is still pending (which can happen), its a crap shoot whether it will be marked as bad or not.

I report in a "Should be in "Insert subforum here" ". Is that fine or do I have to do it in another way? Also, at OP, if you really hate altcoins, just keep reporting them if they get out of the designated subforums.

It's fine because if one us visits the reported topic and sees it's in the right section (maybe moved by OP, maybe by another mod), we can mark the report as "Handled", otherwise we might mark it as a "Bad report" if the report comment says "wrong section" or something like that, and it was already moved to the right section (we may think the reporter erroneously reported the post).

Ignoring the whole section completely is the best option it seems.
