The site works fine, I just posted there.
Jimmy is the guy who runs the sight and I usually sign in with twitter.
Sorry you had problems but it's not like joining here where you get banished to the newbie board at first.
I don't use facebook but you can log in with facebook also.
Cryptocoin Talk aka
www.cryptocointalk.com is in fine working order give it another shot.
No adds , no clutter, focus is on all coins not just BTC.
Plenty of legit giveaways too unlike several on here
(I will be nice & not name names of people or coins)
where you 'sometimes' do not get the coin or coins.
Pm me hereif you still have trouble and I will get a message to the site op about your issue.
Hopefully this is a legit issue not just an attempt to discredit another great forum that does a lot for the world of alternative cryptocurrency.
