slack is rather vulnerable for all the ways of attacks
moreover it has a lot of scams
I suppose that future ICO will use slack partially and more thoroughlully
Topic: ICO without Slack? - page 4. (Read 1869 times)
Slack is a spammers and scammer heaven. Most of the ICO Companys have leaved slack and open other communcation servers like discord.
I cringe every time I see an ICO utilizing Slack for communication. Slack is not ideal for public communication--it is supposed to be used by teams within a company.
I get spam all the time from slack messages! Makes it so frustrating that sometimes I will leave the channel. Honestly I'll take Discord over slack any day. Not full of scammers, voice channels, now video and screensharing recently released. Plus the mobile app is really good, much better than the slack one. I hope more ICOs pick other applications over slack, it's a madhouse nowadays. Scammers everywhere, and it's very hard to be careful about it. I think I fell for one or two on accident, I didn't put in any information but I did click the link which is bad in and of itself. I'm trying to be more careful now and a part of that is not being on slack at all! lol
Most of good projects now close their slack channel. Its good for newbies.
They are now using telegram which is more secure then slack. Slack is too fishy.

there is other channels of communication like telegram or even bitcointalk!
i think this forum give the most visibility to a project.

Mails from slack are marked as spam at my mailbox. I'm already bored with that fishing mails. But slack isn't bad as a way of communication to devs while ICO is going on.
I prefer ICO using Telegram than Slack because there are so many scammers in Slack spamming phishing sites which is very annoying
Everytime Im in Slack there are always a spam message about etherdelta. Yes I agree with you there are many scammers these days so I still prefer telegram to used. 
People do care about slack. Most people do not want their phone connected to anything, so they just use slack on their laptop and desktop! The scamming bot are increasingvon lack. If you use your machine for important transaction, don't even go to slack!

If the slack channel is monitored closely by the admins, it will be better
Normaly, slack is very practical and good app for an ICO to communicate between team and all community.
But there are so much spams, especially on ICO times. It is becoming caution app.
There should be an app for communication, it could be Slack or another one.

Alot of spam on the slack channels yes, so never ever follow a link from there. Otherwise its a good channel. Im liking some channels and the people around it, like Rise. Just awesome.
But if they want to contact me to mention the progress on the ICO, they better take mail or so

Is slack an important factor to choose an ICO, hmmm usually the big players have all the communication platforms operating. The scam messages are annoying though
Since I follow alot of ICOs on slack I got dozens of these in the past few days. I think ICOs should just switch over to Telegram instead of exposing newbie investors to risk. It's still up to the investor to not fall for obvious scams but there's really no reason to use Slack when telegram is better in every way.
In my opinion, scammers are everywhere. We need to be careful while clicking a link or transferring money to an address. The major advantage or disadvantage in crypto is irreversible transactions. I just turn off the notifications and type my URLs.
My phone is lighting up with slack notifications from scammers. Seems like every ICO is unable to close the vulnerability.
What are your thoughts on running an ICO and simply skipping slack as a social channel? Do people even care about slack when there's bitcointalk, telegram, discord, etc.?
I really appreciate every form of communication with the development team when i make my decision of investing on a particular ICO and i need to have Slack to have those opportunities and if i have any questions they could answer me directly rather than waiting for my answers ,all the projects must make use of all the available options to talk to the investors and that is my opinion.

i feel the same like you, i received a tons from slack but since slack is one of the way for us to communicate with the DEV
and for a scam activity i think you should read carefully the text

what you experience is the same as what I feel due to interference from various slack.What are your thoughts on running an ICO and simply skipping slack as a social channel? Do people even care about slack when there's bitcointalk, telegram, discord, etc.?
my phone is becoming hot and very slow, hopefully new projects are able to solve this problem.
ico without slack i guess not a problem. all ico notices can be submitted via ANN thread or their social media. because it will be difficult for us to install the app just for their ico notice
