well the only people who would find this thread now are people who just found about the board and they would go scroll down and see the first entry of this board. it's how i found the board anyways lol...
...but that specific demographic is probably the same demographic that would discuss the creation and review of this board now. but if this thread was longer where did it go?!
Topic: Speculation Section Sucks (Read 1559 times)
I, too, are not interested in all things discussed in Bitcoin discussion, BUT I use my better judgment to pass over the topics that do not interest me with my mouse. In actuality, there are only about 6 or 7 threads that I keep tabs on while the rest are left unread.
Then do what I do: set your profile to ignore boards you're not interested in, and patrol the Recent Unread Topics. 
The sarcasm is delightful.
Why am I going to post in a thread that has no viewers anymore? I'm forced to post off topic in other threads that people do view. Again, I'm not posting in any thread in that section because it's not going to be read.
So you're an attention whore?

Everyone is in the new section by default. So claiming nobody knows it's there is ridiculous.
I really don't understand. How is everyone in the speculation section by default?

More categorization never hurts. Many people (such as myself) are not interested in speculation, but are interested in the other things discussed in "Bitcoin discussion".
I respectfully disagree. It virtually killed the threads that were moved to that section.

If nobody really is reading the section, then perhaps there's little demand for such discussion
1. Nobody reads the section because nobody knows it exists.
2. "little demand" The thread is 73 pages long.
3. A second thread was created with the same title that made it to 5 pages before you moved it.
4. Scaring me with banning when it's your fault for literally giving me no option but to post off topic for views, is pretty lame.
Reverting back to how it was originally will clear this whole thing up. The system wasn't broken until you started messing with it.

Well, at least it's out of the other sections.

P.S. If you post off-topic your posts will be moved or deleted. If you KEEP doing it you probably will piss off theymos, and he has the ban hammer.
