No, you got that exactly backwards. I'm saying that starting a "Credit Card Fraud" section on Bitcointalk is a bad idea.

According to "let's have a ponzi section" logic, is start a "credit card fraud" section.
That way, all the credit card fraud will be gone from digital goods.
Rinse & repeat for your other points.

You did not get it apparently. The equivalent is a gift card section, because there are so many gift card sales in digital goods that it makes the section useless for anything else. Fun fact: This actually has been requested for domain names several times in the past. Now you have a section for gift cards, but you dont know which seller is legit and which is not. Same with the ponzi games(!) section. There is a seperate section because of the high amount of traffic regarding this kind of gambling.

How do you seperate those running a game from those running with your coin? You can claim that they all will run and I would believe you, but you have to prove it.

You've suggested that existance of credit card fraud would mean deletion of the digital goods section.
I've pointed out that no, it wouldn't. It would only mean that we must start a "Credit Card Fraud" section.

Existance of ponzi schemes did not mean the end of the end of the digital goods section. On the contrary, it brought about the *creation of ponzi section*.

See the parallels?

In other words, if BADTHING exists, we should accomodate it by starting a new subforum for it.

As far as separating the good ponzis from the bad ponzis? How about we ban the good and the bad, just like they do everywhere else in the world?

This is a Bitcoin forum, about Bitcoin. A privite forum, not obligated to become a platform for every fucking scam that was ousted from the rest of the world.
