No, because then a list would have to be made. The forum's stance in general is that all alt coins are alt coins. The old established coins like Litecoin, Namecoin, etc are equal in alt coin legitimacy as PumpNDumpCoin that was made 15 minutes ago. The market decides the validity of a coin, not the staff of Bitcointalk.

i just don't understand why giveaways are banned, but yet begging disguised as a giveaway is still going strong...649 posts

Just make giveaways for top 10-15 coins and that's it. Whoever makes on the list and start giveaway threads.

Do you have the list for the 600 coins?? Or are you guessing.  I would be happy to see.

Any updated if admins are considering actions against the entire altcoin subforum?

A more accurate analogy would be a nightclub, with about 100 people all dancing, talking, having a good time, everything is cool. Then about 500 dudes show up pushing their way around, interrupting conversations, yelling at everyone to try their samples. Club owner gets pissed and tells them to take it outside. They can still do it, just not inside the club. Problem solved.

lol, too many sampling the restaurant will be out of business

this is bullshit, it's like to forbid manufacture of food to provide sampling to people.

Oh darn, I was gonna giveaway 25 BTC. Oh well...

Mods, stop with this nonsense. You're trying to annoy the alt-coin people until they leave. Grow a pair of balls and dump the section if you want to that badly.

People don't seem to understand. Essentially we are saying, we don't want your coin spam here. Take it to your own forums, Bitcointalk doesn't cater to thousands of threads about *insert coin*. We aren't motivated to keep the conversation here, so a vote wont do anything, we are trying to get you to take your conversations elsewhere.

People that are saying, FIX IT OR WE WILL LEAVE! thats kind of our intentions. Obviously we don't want people to leave the bitcoin discussion here, but we do want you to take the majority of your altcoin discussion elsewhere. This is Bitcointalk, it can't handle the alt coin discussion volume for 600 different coins, so we are asking that you take it to your own forums.

KeyserSozeMC, we are trying to get people to do exactly what you are doing. Creating your own forums for giveaways like you are doing, I actually really appreciate it.

The main point here that is irritating that people are ignoring, if we don't cut down the post spam, IE hundreds of thousands of posts of people just pasting their addresses, we will lose the entire section. I for one would like to keep the Alt Currency section, however people seem to be ignoring the fact that creating a giveaway subforum wont help. We want the excess spam off of Bitcointalk, not just jammed in a different corner.

Knee-jerk reactions are seldom appropriate.
