In fact there are lots of similar threads with no other purpose than increase post count, but this is just a natural consequence of signature campaigns.
Indeed. The situation that I'm trying to improve was caused by them. There are on-going discussions (both public and private) on how to tackle this problem on a global level.

Personally, i care less-not my thread, yet I don't see ANY consistency and I SPECULATE that there ain't one.
You have to keep a few things in mind. As Blitz had been quite inactive for a while, the situation in the Speculation sub-forum has degraded severely to the point where the majority of the posts (by signature spammers) contain wording similar to this:
Quote
I think it will reach X in Y time
and
Quote
I think it won't reach X in Y time, but will be slower.
There posts are worthless (mostly one liners and/or used to reach a minimum criteria depending on the campaign) and used for post-padding. Additionally, there's a severe lack of reports regarding these (not the posts specifically, but rather the threads themselves. Usually, it is threads that have obviously become a spam-fest (e.g. a huge amount of pages of no value) that are prioritized in a clean up. Also, please don't forget that playing whack-a-mole with NLC is part of my daily routine here as well. I'm open to suggestions and would appreciate any input regarding this matter.

I don't like those useless threads. I think it would be enough with a single thread where we could share our forecast and predictions about the bitcoin price. In fact there are lots of similar threads with no other purpose than increase post count, but this is just a natural consequence of signature campaigns.

Just something done on a whim.
I guess it all comes down to "you get what you pay for." :\

Didn't the great king slay the beast for you? Didn't he wander for your sins, lost in strange lands, with strange musics? (But you don't really care for music, do you?) Didn't he give you bread when you were hungry? And also wine when thine thirst did grow? And when thou dost yearneth, doth he that hath bore your unceremonious burdens not also yearnethed with thee?! Huh

Lo!

this is speculation, yet

"btc to $1000000 thread" was removed, however, several $100000, $163 bil market cap, $10000 "next month", etc threads remain.

here is my speculation: BTC to 591.17 By jan 2016.
Good enough?

Y'know, there's a wall for these sorts of pithy observations. Surely you've come across it?

no and why?
