entrybarrier, commitee, closing down, locking is all pretty authoritarian. Doing that would only lead to creation of new forums. I wanted to get nowhere with opening thread. I just wanted to vent a bit.
I agree. The scene's dead. It was killed by greed.
Money isn't the end-all be-all of everything. It compels people to waste huge chunks of their life on absolutely nothing while simultaneously fucking up other peoples' lives.
There are so many other potential applications for blockchain technology, its disgusting that people should get so easily caught up in chasing the next PumpCoin at Bittrex, tripping over the actually interesting and smart coins to get there.
I think we need more people willing to stand up and expose phony devs or other market manipulators for what they are. Politeness kills and silence kills.
Real investors have very little faith in the crypto scene exactly because of its scammy reputation, which has only been solidified in the last 6 months. But its nobody's fault in particular; just society's fault for placing waaaaaaay too much importance on $$$CASHMONEY$$$

All these people who joined in 2014 seem to be the only ones always bitching and moanin about the "alt scene" , just saying. New threads every other day, they want changes, entry barriers , bla bla bla, fuck off OP , and the rest crying about the alt scene.
You joined in dec 2013... Things changed a lot only in the last 3 months,there were a lot of coins then coming out then but for a different reason.Now there are devs that make a coin per week to dump the premine.
I want to be able to leave my computer more than 1 hour without finding the coin dead when i come back... Right now the most money are made by scammers and the community is bleeding.

it makes me kind of sad and angry to see good coins fighting for survival while the most stupid shit is pumped. People loose a lot of money to scams - that takes away the money from the good coins because it doesn't come back.
I can see the effect of money being sucked out of alts via scamcoins. THAT is the real problem.
Look at Roxcoin for example. Pumped with no end.
24h mining ninjalaunch. Excuse me? There are other coins worse than that.
I would recommend for all people with a brain
go back to established coins which have been prooven not to be vapourware.
Only trade fair coins with skilled and commited dev behind it.
What else can i recommend?
Raise the bar. Stop chasing fake hype.
Good luck with your investements.
To the few good devs reading this:
Make ONE coin and stick to it. Create coins worth hoarding. Make projects that are intended to last for decades and push them through. Create something of longterm-value. For the benefit of crypto and your reputation.
