because it should be illegal. In the stock exchange ect it is FRAUD (with good reason). If these forums gave a shit about the future of altcoins they would ban this nonsense...
Fuck well I guess flip thru enough pages and finally I'll find someone who isn't a moron.... I'm not stock expert but shit like this can't be good in any 'community'. WHY are we supporting this... It is just a 'hustler' gathering uneducated people looking for quick money, to exploit.
To touch on the logic of some posters, it's like saying that this practice, on Wall Street or whatever, would somehow benifit the game, rather than a few players..... Yes it would be illegal, yes it would be immoral, and frankly I don't want to see bitcointalk, just be a breeding ground for petty crime, and losers looking for quick pesos...
