My feeling:
* There are a few established currency exchanges that don't need much to do, all goes OK and their activity usually mean bad things: errors, hacks, or just maintenance. So silence is good and reassuring there.

Everything can be hacked but the companies are distinguished on 'how they react to it and how they answer people'. Most of the people are using exchanges to trade.

* Yes, too many posts are scams or spam.

Not only new users, even Hero Members scam. It simple, "Scammers scam".

* Accounts selling is fine - the mods explanation makes sense not to ban it - still, I agree, too many posts are in that direction. Maybe that should go to a contained area, which maybe is by default set on ignore for new users?

New accounts are created to announce account sale for making their real account a secret. So blocking newbies from posting there is probably a bad idea.

* The overall mood can't be good while some bought at 5-900$ and now it's.. less than 250$

Many of them even bought at $0.1, maybe far lesser than it. I don't think it's a bad thing which affect users.

3 simple solutions would be:

There are many things which looks fine as solution but most of them won't fit in 'solutions'.

* Yes, too many posts are scams or spam. Some sort of newbie jail could help.

- newbie jail

Newbie jail is bad idea. There people who join this forum for asking doubt about technical things, to ask about companies, to announce/offer their service etc... The post and PM limitation currently is some sort of newbie jail and is working fine except for PMs - shouldn't allow newbies to send a PM without posting. A 20-30 seconds forced class about forum rules is probably better idea than newbie jail.

- ban ponzis

Bad and very hard idea. If you start banning, you will have to start banning cloud mining etc... It would be very hard for mods to investigate on every new cloud mining.

- ban/moderate (OK, this is not simple) "sell now" "buy now" "dump is coming" threads - they are only simple daytrader FUD.

Like you said it isn't simple but I didn't understand fully about your statement "they are only simple daytrader FUD". Huh
