I still think we should ban the ponzis after mods create a section for them. They are not good for the community.

i think ponzi should be banned, adding a separate section will be like encouraging them

Some people may claim to ban gambling as well as they are all unlicensed. There is no point doing moral policing. Let the market decide its own destiny...

Agreed. They aren't good for the community but as long as ponzis are legal in a country, it is unlikely to be banned from the site.

Good job theymos , you could rename it to "Scamming games" too you know . since that's what it is .
At least they will leave the other sections alone now .

I prefer Zakir over Muhammed when mentioning me!
Done.

Thank you so much. We can now focus on game improvement rather than fighting with people about whether a Ponzi Game is a SCAM by definition or NOT.

Ponzi isn't scam by definition but theoretically and practically, it is! It is 100% not a game.

Now I think the OP (BrannigansLaw) can lock the thread, search the lock button in the bottom left of the page.

Ps: finally a "ponzi" forum section, but I still suggest you to not invest in them  Wink.

+1. Nobody listen till they scold others for their loose! I recently read a person complaining about creation of Bitcoin by Satoshi as it made them loose BTC. Grin

Finally the forum have a hyip/pyramid/ponzu scheme forum section, well done ! I didn't think we will never have it but I was wrong.

Me too! Shocked

Done.

Hope the 'PONZI' title won't disappear from thread. Won't we have to move fake cloud mining, i.e., no proof of mining, to this section?

I think to solve the ponzi problem as well as the hyip problem we should have a ponzi/hyip program section under gambing. They generally are the same thing and better to keep it out of the gambling section
They were in the regular gambling section. They were spamming up the gambling section so much that there have been 5+ threads in meta complaining about all the ponzi spam in gambling. Hell, even now more then 50% of the first page in gambling is threads by moderators saying they moved the ponzi threads to the ponzi section.

This means that the ponzis are not going to spam the gambling section where people want to go to have fun and be able to play games that are actually fair

Done.

I think it would be a good idea to add a stickied thread explaining the risks behind these types of investments.

This is ridiculous! Look at all these fucking scamming ponzi sites. They need their own section of the forum and anyone who wants to 'invest' in them can mull them all over and choose. All genuine gambling sites just get flooded out.

i agree for Ponzi section/subsection here in the forum, but they must have a pinned post explaining what is a ponzi so that new users can keep away themselves from the risk of ponzi Wink

here you go:

  • Ponzi affiliated sites are not endorsed nor recommended by this forum, its staff, or by any sane person.
  • Being a part of ponzi related thread,site or activity you are both victim and a scammer yourself, since all ponzi's are a scam, and you are hoping to "earn" other peoples money.
  • If you are joining anyway, you here agree not to cry and whine when you loose your bitcoins/rent moey/babys college fund etc.

hope this helps anyone misguided about the issue.
cheers
I am little sad that people on bitcoin forum need to be reminded what ponzi scheme. If you are user of this forum and you seek to invest some money in it I would assume that you have some really basic knowledge of economy. But I guess warning people over and over again could help. Also Ponzi only subforum is a must in my humble opinion. There are too many ponzis running around lately they need to be caged there.
