Agreed, couldn't even open a thread last time I was there. Kept redirecting me to the landing page.

Looks ugly as well, or maybe I just got too used to how this forum looks.

I don't really think it's ugly. But atleast I don't see self-moderated threads everywhere and people deleting posts where people speak their mind about bitcoin and changes regarding it.

This and the upcoming AMA's really need some more attention. Feels kinda bad no one had asked him anything in (what it looks like 5 hours).

Reddit where you at?!

the AMAs got alot of traffic already, not bad.

reddit (the bitcoin part) is censored too much so that is one reason why Roger build bitcoin.com .

Yeah I realize that, and I also know he bought the domain itself for $1mil. I just mean the reddit users that keep complaining about centralisation and theymos should move over to the other forum and start shooting the questions they've recently not gotten an answer to.

Problem is the forum is a piece of shit.

i don't now, i like their notification system, and that thing is still in beta, i'm following it just in case, and anyway i like to have a back up...

I would like a notification system on this forum as well that would notify me when someone quotes my posts. Would really help to get around the forum better.
Right now it's basically just opening up threads, checking what the last post was that you read and then continue from there. It's just a lot to remember.

Why would you think that?

if it's the layout you don't like, I don't think this one is that much better.

I am all for increased Bitcoin privacy. I think we need it to find the fungibility problem. Hopefully they don't take ages to make sidechains a thing and we can see confidential transactions soon. But it seems like nothing can be as anonymous as what Amir was trying to do with Darkwallet but unfortunately it seems the project has been frozen for years now for some reason.
