Topic: Remove All Faucets from Service Announcements - page 3. (Read 6056 times)
love or hate faucets. Having them moved to their own sub-board is a great idea. Lets clean up the ANN mess.
Yes, faucets are a waste of time. You will have a hard time convincing someone of the fact though. Mainly because all they see is "free moneyz" and do not understand that dust inputs are a pain in the arse.
No, I don't think it is a waste of time because the prime approach to bitcoin and especially to get some satoshi is by the faucets. When "the newbie" will learn more about bitcoin he can stop to use faucet and start to buy btc or gain them, by providing a service.

It's that mean taking free samples on the mall/shop are waste of time too?After taking free samples, somehow you'll interested buying the real product
It's okay, I already know faucet are waste of time, Also I didn't force you to use it.
one place for all the faucets makes sense. they are all over the "Newbies" section, which maybe makes sense more than service announcement. but if they were confined to one specific sub alone, that would erradicate their presence everywhere else. i found this in "Project Development" (!)

Why don't to just put it on front page under Bitcoin (or Other?) section called "Faucet"?https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mobile-android-faucet-application-simple-and-instant-payment-1006879 i mean he talks like he's testing it, but...
Newcomers can easily spotted those and you can tell "Test out how bitcoin work for free" or something similiar
Because faucet doesn't look like project development for me, it just still like "Free service" to me
No, faucets are a waste of time even for brand new users. They'll be bombarded with ads and "CLAIM 10000 SATOSHI EVERY 10 MINUTES" all over the site. Better thing to do is to sign up on a Bitcoin exchange like Coinbase and have them teach you by you reading.

Yes, I know it's waste of time for brand new user who already have greater income and knowing about bitcoin mechanims.Maybe this only apply for me?
When I was new on Bitcoin & know none about trading, I already tried to buy some (At my local exchanger) and when I look at the bid table I was just like "How the hell I use this?". Reading the guide just like pain on my head.
Then I states to not spend some of my money of bitcoin, I didn't want to spend to something I don't know to use. Just like buying a car but you didn't knew how to drive. There's still a lot of people who didn't really understand how to use technology, so practice is the most successfull way.
Start from a lower first, then when you get higher, you can earn more. So back to the topic, I hope didn't block faucet ann anymore but try to make a new section about it.
btw, coinbase buy/sell isn't avaiable in my country..

How many of them are there? First page, and first 5 pages would be a pretty good indicator.
Page 1: 21 faucet threads out of 40 threads.
Pages 1 through to 5 have 61 faucet announcement (or discussion) threads out of a possible 200 threads.
Page 1 now has 22 faucet threads out of 40 threads.
Pages 1 through to 5 now have 83 faucet announcement (or discussion) threads out of a possible 200 threads.
It's getting outrageous, 'new' faucets are popping up every day. I'll make a new count for the 1st and 1-5 pages.
Maybe create a child board on Beginners & Help. Something like Resources.
And sticky all the useful threads that used to be on the top of the newbie board.
Yogi's terminology post would be a great example of such useful posts.

I'd like to suggest that all faucets are announced/discussed in a sub category in the 'Service Announcement' board. A faucet isn't a service, nor does it bring anything useful to the community (any more). They are made solely for the advertisement profit, nowadays at least (hence why most faucet owners control several sites, often above 10, to earn from visitors).
Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Marketplace > Service Announcements > Faucet Announcements
Gotta agree with this...the service annoucment section is almost unreadable cuz of this.Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Marketplace > Service Announcements > Faucet Announcements
Just make an faucet annoucment sub board please..
Unreadable is exactly the problem, no one can see any cool new services!

A sub section only with faucet announcement would be great. I looking for a place of valid faucets. Its hard to seperate the serious one's from all the other announcement threads.
I think it would be cool to have a sub section with just faucets...
It would be useful so that regular faucets can be differentiated from those investment faucets like those such btc-flow, eggminer, btc-wolf etc...
In short it would be great to have a sub forum for just faucets...

Btc-flow, etc...are already differentiated since they now belong to Investor-based games board. I may agree however a Service Announcements child board dedicated to BTC faucets could be useful. A similar child board dedicated to altcoin faucets could be also added to Service Announcements (Altcoins) board.

These fauces you listed here are just ponzi schemes disguised as faucets, nothing more really. And we have already section for this type of 'investment' on bitcointalk - Investor based games.It would be useful so that regular faucets can be differentiated from those investment faucets like those such btc-flow, eggminer, btc-wolf etc...
In short it would be great to have a sub forum for just faucets...
Now we need just another section for regular faucet 'services'.

Instead of a new section, which I don't think is warranted just for faucets, could they all be merged into one thread? Each faucet only allowed to post once. I just don't think it's justified to have a new section for something like faucets. Although, in it's current state, basically the majority in service announcements that may be the way to go. It wouldn't be so bad if something else could go in the new section, besides just faucets.
I know my suggestions isn't ideal either.

A single thread with all faucet announcements would be fine but I imagine that faucet owners, although scarce, won't be too happy.

I agree with this idea, since there are many faucets coming up...
And it'll be better if this idea is granted
