So many new(ish) members say that they joined the forum to learn English, and to find out about Bitcoin, but when you give them the chance, but without the possibility of sig spamming and earning merits, they vanish back into the woodwork.
Of course. And I expressed doubt as to whether people were actually going to take you up on your new website for that reason. Most of the members here who have 0 merit, write unintelligible nonsense, aren't ranking up, and are in signature campaigns are only here to earn money. They're not interested in learning (though they incessantly write about gaining knowledge), reading, or interacting on any level with anyone else. They have cartoon dollar signs in their eyes when they start tapping out their word-waste.
And these people are the same ones who are cheating bounty campaigns by using legions of alt accounts to increase their earnings. I'm trying to neg them all, and by so doing, scotching their chances to earn money here. I pinch them and they squeal like piglets.
