2 weeks ago we seen many spamming corona virus thread everywhere. But now we have many spam thread about Bitcoin halving
Most of them only give their own speculative, like "I think after 3rd halving bitcoin price will reach $50k, how about you?" or giving low value analysis.
Do we need to allowing more thread like this? 
Same context but other problem which was better to be discussed elsewhere. However it is a habit in bitcointalk to have many topics discussing the same issue in the same sub or in different sections.
Halving, coronavirus, sudden price rise or drop, important events related to bitcoin... Members will discuss it, its relation to bitcoin, altcoins, adoption and price... Once you get used with it for years, it turns to be "normal", mods rarely interfere with it and they will be blamed if any action is done.

This is absolutely unacceptable mostly members have been tired to read these kind of threads again and again and yes I strongly agree with your point we don't need these kind of mindless threads I hope our responsible moderators will take strong action to stop further spamming.

They’re all boring & don’t provide any positives to actual Bitcoin Discussion.
This is just a sign, that this Virus is even affecting the Forum Viruses✌️😂,... They just can't keep quiet about a thing who has more attention than them.

Oh and hey, I think we can see this CoVid Topics in every Local Board not just in that Bitcoin Discussion

It's a global issues, it's everywhere because it's that serious The harms and effects of Corona are really worrying, we are witnessing the worst disease in human history. Actually, we can prevent covid-19 by staying in home. Also we can give more than enough time to discuss about the current crypto market or bitcoin price. Not only bitcoin discussion, even the active gambling sections ANN threads are also filled up corona discussion.

The topics are creates to just discuss about the virus as it's being done on social media/internet in general. Other section are also experiencing this and we hope to see the topic go off once it's over.

The only thing we should be concerned about is plagiarism. Users should be banned if they plagiarize other people's content and post here.

Not only bitcoin discussion, even the active gambling sections ANN threads are also filled up corona discussion. For example a sporting event is cancelled and we see a lot of comments that it is postponed due to coroanavirus and it is for the safety of the players and blah blah.

Just like the whole TV media and social media is filled with coronavirus, so we find nothing different on this forum too.  Smiley

I am counting now 3 related topics to coronavirus in the first page in Meta. Even this sub is contaminated  Undecided
I believe mods/admins are aware of this and since it is a temporary thing i doubt an action will be taken unless it becomes more and more problematic.
As I said before even if a megathread for covid will be created, this will not force people to not talking about its effects on the markets, bitcoin price...inside general topics. Such action will just reduce the number of topics not posts

Just personal opinion, but I think this topic should also be locked  Cheesy This topic has been viewed more than 500 times and lots of comments. Most agree with the OP's opinion. I think LFC_Bitcoin got what he needed. @LFC_Bitcoin, can you review and lock it before it becomes another spam topicCheesy

I agree, it's becoming as contagious as Corona itself. Oh noes Cool

Just kidding, OP your call!

Those topics should be moved to offtopic or trash.
I also noticed several suspicious topics asking for crypto payments, miracle fake anti-virus herbs, apps with fake covid tracking, virus shitcoins... all junk


It's clear that even threads like this one complaining about coronavirus topics are getting derailed with trollposts, and I'm not helping by bumping this to the front page. The least experienced members can do to keep things quiet is to stop creating threads resenting the influx of threads about [TOPIC]. TECSHARE already has a megathread about coronavirus in P&S https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/coronavirus-outbreak-5220206, just post there and ignore all the others.

I think you should check out about new hantaviruse as your hope could blew off !
All you want to know about hantavirus that killed a man in China this week
Thank you for that news.
I read some news about it yesterday. Many peple worry that they may break out into pandemics. Others think this is a big purge on mankind  Roll Eyes It also started from China  Roll Eyes

The image is just for fun, but who knows what happens next  Grin
Then, we will call it as a Chinese hantavirus, as the ex-standards for virus and disease name-calling before some changes a few years ago (that does not allow or avoid to use location, nation to name viruses and diseases. Personally, I don't have any issues with ex-name-calling method. It help us instantly to know where they originally started. In the other words, I support the name-calling from Mr. Trump.

Chinese coronavirus and Chinese hanta virus.

Let's consider a good effects from the Corona Virus Spamming epidemic on the forum. How I call it as a good thing. Many of them will end with plagiarism and the forum will be cleaner with less spammers.

For the others who don't plagiarise, they will stop it when the pandemic is contained globally. That is not too far from now. Depends on each nation, from epidemic peak, it takes around 1 month to stabilize and next 2 months to bring nearly all things back to normal. I guess about 4 to 6 months from now, the world will become safer and the Coronavirus spam epidemic on the forum will stop. Just my hope.

In the meantime, I am waiting to see more ban appeals from plagiarism.

Do you know where to get figures for total number of tests have been made in the USA. ?

Trump tweeted that the USA. have tested (within one week) more than what South Korea did within 3 - 4 weeks. I believe it but I am curious about the source of that data.

Like it or not it is going to dominate the forum's news.  I doubt it will be restricted .

From my opinion , these are the covidiot (covid+idiot). They are just trying to make the forum full of spamming and also try to create panic among the users about bitcoin's price fall. Actually, we can prevent covid-19 by staying in home. Also we can give more than enough time to discuss about the current crypto market or bitcoin price. But, these covidiots are showing their stupidity.
At last , i only want to say that it's my own opnion .It's can be vary from persion to persion of their own thinkings.

No you can't ban as long as its completely against forum rules.
You are an idiot. Theymos can ban you for being an idiot completely arbitrarily, at any time. Actually, you do not even have to be an idiot. He can ban you for the sake of banning you. Rules are irrelevant.

You are a idiot no more no less  Smiley
Stop copying me.  Tongue

Such negative personality. Can't even respond back with own shield. You have to use theymos all the time.

Stop being irrelevant, then we will speak about rules which are irrelevant.



Do you even have your own opinion?
Want to hear my opinion? Fine...
You are a idiot no more no less  Smiley
This is a public forum and you can't just ban them from posting about Covid-19.
This forum is a forum dedicated to Bitcoin, it is not a goddamn place for you to discuss social security issues, education, epidemics,... What the hell is the disease affecting or involving Bitcoin? Stop giving your bullshit comments in topics  Smiley Get out of here and find a public place to talk about Covid-19
No you can't ban as long as its completely against forum rules.
Well, you're not stupid with this saying, huh?




You both are alts of each other or What!!

Going off-line at the same time, coming on-line at the same time and one copies shit of others.

Anyways .  .

Ignoring you too.




I responded with what I had to speak. Stop being judgemental.
