This is serious, people.
A lot of the folks coming to Bitcoin (and altcoins) these days are newbies.
And there's a serious problem for newbies with keeping their computers secure. They need all the help they can get. And yes, some of them haven't learned yet that they oughtn't download crap without checking it thoroughly before running it. But that doesn't mean they're bad or stupid people; it just means they need help. Raising awareness of the issue by posting warnings in-thread whenever you see something intended to rip them off is a good start. Deleting posts that contain malicious links is important too.
I would recommend that such posts ought to be replaced by a message that says exactly why the post got deleted, as a warning to newbies reading the thread that this is a thing that happens. Newbies probably do not know what things they need to be alert for.

Damn Troy, even your sock puppets are Hero members now 
I'm not Troy but flattered you think I am, I do development work on two Coins and everyone thinks we are the same person.

I've giving up caring about cloning, it won't stop people from making Coins. Would be good to have some safe methods to protect people from getting their own Coins stolen which is more important.
People should stop mining and supporting shitcoins, thats the only solution.
So what coins are not shitcoins?
Any coin that I don't own is a shitcoin. That's the usual definition.
This.
That's why the discussions in the alt boards are biased and skewed and it's hard to take it seriously. It's full of sockpuppets, fudsters and cheerleaders.
It's pretty entertaining though..
Lets get back to ideas of an easy and secure way to host wallet downloads, what are the best practices?

What do you think of NEM and NXT? Are they shitcoins?
Of course they are shitcoins. What purpose do they serve? Absolutely nothing. Nobody takes them for goods or services. The only thing you can do with them is trade them for other shitcoins or bitcoins or sell them for fiat currency. That is the very definition of a shitcoin.

[I wasn't aware there were standards a persons rank should stand on?
Just an emergent property. It's hard work being a dick all of the time so the longer someone's been around, the less of a dick they are, generally. There's always an exception that proves the rule, though.

A profoundly unheroic post. Reflects quite badly on your judgement.
