Announcing progress on coins in a thread title (e.g. "Dash's Evolution reached a milestone" or "Dash's development progress as of April 28" where the April 28 is implicit in creating new "Dash's progress" threads every month) is tantamount to an ANN thread and thus shouldn't be allowed.  A thread title which is about discussion of multifarious aspects of a coin should be allowed in Altcoin Discussion.

Please note my edit.

The point is create one perpetual thread for discussing Dash's progress and not new threads with that same topic so as to spam this Altcoin Discussion as if it is the ANN subforum, which it is not.
So the [XMR] Monero Speculation and the Monero Support threads should also be deleted according to this logic, right? Awfully hypocritical if not...  Cheesy

Those are actual discussion threads. Same as the dash speculation thread that qwizzie created. You're using the progress thread as an announcement thread--it is just you, tungfa, and a few others bumping links and circle jerk talk. But I'm sure you can't acknowledge the difference as it isn't in your best interest to acknowledge the difference.

Any forum thread in this section, which gets enough popularity to get bumped to the top should be allowed here, this is a discussion thread, the same topics could get discussed in different threads if someone feels the need to reopen them. The same happens with your anti-dash circlejerks, they have been reopened in many forms and under many names, but the content is always the same.

Another question would be the morality, which the monero trolls obviously failed to adopt. I don't find any problem in a project, which tries to maintain constant google hits and tries to make readers click on a link. That's called marketing and it goes together with a free discussion section since the content is crypto related. Obviously you couldn't advertise viagra here, but if you could buy it with crypto even that would be allowed.

The problem is that the progress thread is just an ANN page and there is already a section for that. Any thread that has little to no discussion and is chock-full-of-links as filler will get my satiric grin. As for morality, I think anyone who openly supports a coin that perpetuates the myth that it is decentralized and fairly launched while employing one of the most centralized launches in altcoin history (and topped-off with a centralizing schemes via paynodes), should have to stare at a sign that states, "Only noobs and greater fools need apply to the shitcoin I endorse, because nobody with any sense would buy into this racket" until that little ethic's lightbulb goes click and their cognitive dissonance  dissipates into the realization that they aren't practicing what they preach. Every one of Tao's marketing slogans that read "Satoshi's dream..." should be painted over with "Satoshi's Nightmare." Then, at least, you would have some truth in advertising instead of the wolf of alt street BS meant to fool lambs to financial slaughter.

This section is meant to be a free section, where anyone could make a thread for even the dumbest question, ex: Does XY coin have a website? Does XY coin have a block explorer? Will XY coin get dumped to 0?

So after knowing and seeing this since months/years (I'm pretty sure you didn't join the forum yesterday), you really feel that you need to open another autistic anti-dash thread where you complain that they opened a progress thread?

Should I open a thread where I throw in the question: Do you think the monero trolls should open another anti-dash thread or is *insert a huge number here* enough?

Oh and I'll add some s here because the number of anti-dash threads has grown exponentially since their BTC-E addition.

Yeah, you should open that up--at least it will be a discussion and not a bunch of links to dashers circle jerking around effigies of Evan.

Replace "dashers" with "vanillers" and "Evan" with "johnconner" and you've described the vcash forum.   Cheesy

Look at traum's history.  Every few months, he pumps a new shitcoin that promptly fails to go anywhere.

He's obviously very butthurt gmax and smooth exposed vcash's stolen code, and out for revenge on Monero.

Why else would he try to white knight for Tau's DashSpam, which is a blatant forum rule violation?

The funny thing to note here is that I don't own DASH, but even though I don't own any I feel the need to comment here because of the toxicity of the monero trolls who ruin this form.

On the second part, you accuse me of pumping shitcoins with my vocal support? You eduardo who scammed people out of millions with the hashfast scam? Please don't make me laugh. When are you going to notice that you are the clown of this forum with your history in crypto?

Actually the Dash Progress thread is a great discussion thread that is open to everyone and where most of you all already posted in,
discussing pretty much anything.

I think the real problem is that your discussion points are just really weak of nature and therefore easily
outclassed by more mature and rational posts.

Feel free to post more in there though, maybe some gems of posts will be made to glow after all, a man can hope.

Please add a choice to the poll:

○ No ANN thread titles in Altcoin Discussion, only discussion thread titles.

If the above poll choice suggestion, equivalent to "let every coin have a 'progress' page" + "ban progress pages that are nothing but link whoring"?

The key distinction is on the title and OP (and thus in reality the subject matter of the thread without needing to subjectively judge the subject matter of the thread). In other words, making the rule more explicit and less ambiguous yet still obtaining the same goal.

Announcing progress on coins in a thread title (e.g. "Dash's Evolution reached a milestone" or "Dash's development progress as of April 28" where the April 28 is implicit in creating new "Dash's progress" threads every month) is tantamount to an ANN thread and thus shouldn't be allowed.  A thread title which is about discussion of multifarious aspects of a coin should be allowed in Altcoin Discussion.

Also I would vote for another rule, which is a maximum of 5 threads per coin bumped per day, to discourage creating duplicate threads to spam this board. This could be automated by script if mods will tag each thread with a coin identifier.

voted to every coin has been the progress page.
because under so much to those who are dead.
Lol wat?  You're in the wrong section of the internet.

But come on, we need all the booger-eating,  doody-dribbling morons we can get in the altcoin part of bitcointalk.  Makes the other sections look like Harvard business school.
