Off the top of my head:
- Have this thread locked to all but eduffield and internetape, because it's basically a goatfuck at this point.
I strongly disagree with this. This forum is the epicenter of cryptocurrency discussion on the internet. When a coin moves off bitcointalk, it's usually the beginning of a slow death (the best exception to date has been DOGE, but they used another accessible platform, reddit).
Many (most?) of us would not have found this coin if it wasn't for this thread and its high activity (which bumps it to the top). I agree with banning branding talk here, but not with shutting it down.
Keeping Darkcoin on the front page of these forums wouldn't be difficult, but it should be done in a way that this huge cluster of a thread is not the first thing people see.
Small, concise bites of positive information regarding updates, rollouts, new features, status, etc. on a regular basis. Hit it hard then drop it. Show people constant progress with a new
headline subject line that they can chew on every week (or every few days or whatever), taking care not to tread into spam territory. Hammer and reinforce the main tenets of privacy, anonymity, security etc. and why we are
different and
better than any other coin on offer, in every new thread. While we're at it, direct as much traffic to darkcointalk as possible.
There is a lot of baggage (and a lot of good info, of course) in this thread. It's too big and too messy to expect a newcomer to digest.

Yes, excellent idea to guide the conversation via changes in the header/title for the week. Actually, I don't think anyone has ever done that before. Something like totally obvious, like "this week, what do you see as the pros and cons of anonymity?" Something that guides the conversation toward why DRK is great "Ways to get storefronts to embrace DRK" If a subject seems exhausted, we could change it on a daily basis, but always guiding it, and maybe have a suggestion topic thread on Darkcointalk.org
