could we move shares to a own section? (a request to change group buy sub-forum)

[vnhyp0]

to "shared mining", "miner communion" or such

that would make it easier to spot new deals faster,
for people that prefer own hardware to resell later

Xer0 posted this in the GB section (here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=525523.0) and I would like to get the discussion started here, as ckolivas has asked.

I think this would be very helpful and a great idea.

[vnhyp0]

I should note for context that the group buy section is full of people buying/selling "shares" and also composing GB's and selling hardware (opposed to leasing/hosting/etc.)

We (at least some of us) would like this section to be split up, so the ones selling "shares" have a section to themselves, as it gets quite overcrowded and confusing at times in the GB forum.

Thanks!

Sounds like you're talking about threads that should be in securities. Shares in a mining program?

[vnhyp0]

Usually one person will lead/host a machine(s) being sold, and sell off "shares" (think GHS) of the unit to others to help mitigate the cost or make money through hosting (or other methods). People to buy "shares" of a unit, where each buyer usually gets compensation in the form of GHS proportional to the amount bought and value of machine and amount of shares/GH/unit, etc.

Was mainly trying to move this discussion here per request (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=525523.0), as I think it would be a nice change and really help be able to sort through the forum's different types of posts (I use a custom chrome extension to color code the threads in GB section just to save time!).

Here are a few examples of some threads that sell "shares" and host (all taken from first page of GB section):

and some polls to see if people should start posts like the above:

I suspect this account was sold. TF has another style of writing.

Was just thinking the same thing.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was hacked, or "hacked".
