Name these "big companies" with websites constantly going offline (for days on end) because their service providers were "social engineered" to hand over root password to their servers.
Bitcointalk is not constantly going offline. The last time Bitcointalk went down was over a year ago.
Many companies do not have their websites going offline for days at a time because a) they have their own servers and b) they have teams of people fixing the problem instead of only one guy.
As why do they "promote" ponzies wich they not, it was already mentioned plenty of times that is better to have them all in 1 place, i dont agree with it but its what it is.
Having a section dedicated to promotion of ponzis is promoting ponzis, no lie.
And how is it that a forum started to discuss and promote Bitcoin suddenly has not just gambling & warez selling sections, but a section dedicated to ponzis? Which friend of Bitcoin thought this is a good idea?
Wake up, bro!
The section dedicated to ponzis and investment games is there to protect people. If these scams were not moved into the section where the top of each thread has a massive warning about gambling and potential loss, then many people would be scammed and Bitcoin would be further brought down by the number of scams. Having these in their own subsection hidden inside the gambling section prevents people from being scammed and keeps all of the ponzis in one place.
