I haven't been here in awhile. I initially left because the posts were becoming 99% inane. Meaningless comments, often in horribly broken english that basically said nothing of value. Often just one-liners, or pointless replies.
Then I noticed that every single post by these people had a beautiful, large, full color banner for some bitcoin gambling site, or bitcoin product or service.
Now I am back, and I just looked through a thread in the General Forum. Literally the entire thread is pointless meaningless comments with zero intelligence or thought put into any of them, and literally *EVERY* post has a banner ad in the signature.
Has it escaped the mods on this forum that their forum content quality has gone to complete sh*t and that its because you allow spamming / advertising in signatures? Do you realize you can singlehandedly quadruple the intelligence and quality of posts here if you ban advertising in signatures?
Why? Because these people only post to get their signatures displayed on the page. Therefore what they write is going to be pointless by default. And banning signature spamming will instantly stop them from bothering to post.
Unless this site is getting paid for those advertisements, there really is no reason to allow this to continue. Each thread looks like a flashing billboard with near zero quality content.
Just wondering.
