Probably because theymos got around to creating the "press" sub-board just today.
I noticed theymos moved the 'Bitcoin hits' thread to the new Press board, and jumped on that.
Topic: Guidelines for Press board (Read 138336 times)
I noticed theymos moved the 'Bitcoin hits' thread to the new Press board, and jumped on that.
I posted three articles yesterday, and they are all gone today...
I couldn't find any mention of what I did wrong or if they were moved.
Any ideas?

If they weren't specifically about Bitcoin, that's the most likely cause. People post lots of stuff that's vaguely related to crypto, thinking it belongs here, but I think the idea is to be more strict with it now. Sometimes topics get deleted for not including the date in the required format. Links to blogs or anything that could be construed as a "press release" (i.e. Service announcements) are also not appropriate.
Lol, they were 2 topics specifically about bitcoin. And 1 tangentially related.
I could understand one, but not all three...
So after looking at recent posts, perhaps there's more of an expectation of a summary of the story now rather than simply a link to an article?
I gave bullets for one article, but only links for the other two...
Here are my three links in case anyone wants to give me more guidance on how to be most helpful in this area of the forums. Thanks in advance!!!

Pretty cool that someone from the original month of bitcoin genesis has moved some. Might be Craig Wright, but we'll see.

High fees are a bummer, which is why I'm excited the lightning network is up and running!

I've just reported 3 topics for not even being remotely related to Bitcoin. Stuff about altcoins does not go in this subforum. Please post such things in the appropriate sections. Some moderators are already calling for this particular part of the forum to be scrapped because some people are using it as a dumping ground for crap, so stop abusing the Press board if you want to keep it.
I guess this outlined guideline is also subject to should there be further criteria or indices of
rating bitcoin in the press board.Besides, convention of guideline may also change to catch up with
contemporary standards of guidelines?

Its always tricky when it comes to guidelines on any comity or board of press. Its best to always revise the documentation before presented.
Can we please moderate paid Press Releases: they usually turn out to be scams. There should be a rule about that since a PR does not provide any news. It's paid for a purpose......
Thanks!
I highly agree with @Karartma1 this needs to be done sooner then later. It has become a huge problem. IMHO Thanks!

Are only Bitcoin-related articles allowed in the press section? or can I also post other Blockchain/FinTech/Other coins related pieces?
I understand this board is definitely for Bitcoin-related news only. But if you find anything interesting, that you think is somewhat relevant, you can share it (with your comments) on other boards (i.e. Economics, Alternate cryptocurrencies, General discussion or wherever relevant).

I rarely notice this subforum and have recently found it to be a wealth of information but I notice there are very few replies to the articles.
Is it frowned on to reply to the article,saw in meta mention of people spamming this section and do not want to cause more grief by doing something that is not cool.
Did not see mention of this in this thread and it looks like the rules of changed since it was started,so this is the reason I am asking before I respond to any of these topics just in case there is a system or method that I may disrupt.

If replying was disallowed, they would disable 'reply' option. There's no harm at all in making constructive comments, just bear in mind this board is not meant for extensive debates. Fresh, current press hits should stay at the top, rather than be buried by discussions in old threads.

thanks for the tips, but i seem to have a problem with posting and the terms and conditions that come with it,
it can actually frustrate you when you want to post

I think we could use some clarification re 'Press' section. I don't think articles from bitcoin/crypto news services (CoinDesk, Cointelegraph etc) should be posted in this board, since basically all their articles are bitcoin related.
Shouldn't it be limited to mainstream or non-crypto press hits?

I agree. Many of these Bitcoin news websites are quite new and don't have the reputation of major news outlets (some of them promoted the paycoin scam, etc.).
Same here my opinion is that they should be inside their own area of the Press Board not a complete ignore as they can be relevant, but their articles do tend to swarm the press board and may filter other media information.
A good thing in a sense since were now getting so much news, but because we are it makes more sense to try and organize and sort the info.

How can these Youtube links be notable press hits? I don't think this board is the right place for Youtube links. I'm going to report them.

Cool thanks! It's easier to navigate the articles having them in their own section, but there is still no thread that shows up under "new replies" which is what many people use to see what's relevant to them.
