NEW POLL: Should newbs and Jr. members be barred from creating ALT ANN threads ?

[Hippie Tech]

The crypto community is growing ever more weary of these con artist, shitcoin pushin newb devs and their spambots/puppets/shills. (can you tell that I'm pissed ?)

They are destroying the crypto community's reputation/ public image. So what can we do about it ?

How will the alts with genuine potential ever become noticed if we do not demand that these changes be made ?

If this was up to me, the bar would be set to "Hero Member".

Lets hear your say ! VOTE NOWWW !

RULES:
1 In an effort to ensure the poll's accuracy, I am going to ask that you post at least a simple "yes/no/+/-", along with your actual vote.
2 There will be two final tallys. eg. votes and posts will be counted seperately and compared

Thank you, in advance, for participating.

Why discriminate if people want to stay anonymous with new development?

Why discriminate if people want to stay anonymous with new development?

That is a very good question.

So where do we draw the line ?

Picture 2 ANN thread sub sections. One for the newbs.. one for the established/ reputable members.

Who do you think the public will trust with their hashpower/investment ?

Older members are generally more trusted and have a reputation so people can see what they have done. So I agree older members are generally more trusted.

[iopq]

yes, so people can see who is actually making shit coins

[Rofo]

Voted no, and believe me I'm just as pissed and frustrated for a variety of reasons. We just have to let people make their own decisions or what's the point unfortunately.

[MicroGuy]

I think this rule somehow implies that all reliable developers are long-time bitcointalk members - which is pretty far from the truth.

It still amazes me that people are naming businesses after this forum's founder after he abandoned Bitcoin during its greatest hour of need and vanished into thin air with over 1 million bitcoins.

The real unfortunate part is when we lose people who gave up searching (thanks to lack of trust), for "the coin", by the time they get to page 2 of the sub section.

Kinda like the way I gave up when I didn't trust Bitcoin almost 3 years ago. 2 BSODs .. " F that ! Its a scam/ spyware !! " .. I deleted it, reformatted and forgot about BTC until Oct 2012.

I coulda.. shoulda.. woulda.. retired at a very young age off of this budget rig...

Those with talent and innovation will easily stand out.

The current rule impies that everyone can be a reliable developer.

Nnnnext question !

I guess you could say that Mr. Nakamoto set the precident. eg the first ever Newbie Crypto Dev

[Hippie Tech]

CMON ! Thats it ?

Has cryptoland really gone down that shittycoin slippery slope ?

[minairia3]

.Barring them is too much but having an ANN thread for new members and an ANN thread for full members would be a good approach.  Doesn't stop scams but would filter out real garbage down to the new member ANN.  Forum is almost useless now for research, too much crud to wade through to find good stuff.  Coins that might be real deal like XC (the jury is still out) get buried by reeking turds such as Shibecoin, etc.

+1 minairia3

That aspect did not occur to me until after I posted this thread. 2 new options have been added.

I'm standing firm on my YES because I know that 99% of these shit stains are cloned by the same greedy scammers (and the exchanges behind them).

The OP has been updated.

[Mitchell]

Ah shit. I wanted to vote yes, selected the wrong option and noticed my mistake after voting. So yeah, I vote that they should be banned from that section. I still believe that the newbie jail has to come back, but I doubt that that will ever happen.

Here here.  Can you add "Regret not mining the shit out of BTC in 2011" to the poll?  

[cryptohunter]

does not matter really but should follow this code




Premine have to be held by escrow level members and given over to the dev gradually for continued support.

instamine have to be stopped... fair launch protocol to be folllowed.

These devs only spunk out 5 new coins a day because they know they get to sell their instamines and premines on the exchanges at once now, take that away and you will see very few coins released.

Premine have to be held by escrow level members and given over to the dev gradually for continued support.

Good idea, but what if escrow level member dies/disappears/loses access to all wallets?  It needs to be built into the code.  0.125% instantly available to dev, 0.125% available after 6 months, 0.15% to bounty fund with public transactions for all bounties.

[DougB62]

If the response this thread gets warrants it, we'll set up a petition.

lolz.. I would but that requires another reset.

Another good one would be, "I gave up mining LTC because the 15-25 coins per day earned by my 300 khash gpu... wasn't worth it."

None of that would be neccessary if we avoided premines all together.

In other words... corporate welfare is for FIATheads.
