Lets see if I got this right.

Paycoin was formerly named Hashcoin, and it emerged out of the mining section of bitcointalk.

So paycoin took a different route to begin with, than most other coins take.

But what is it that is giving people incentive or motivating people to buy paycoins?

I am curious, I see paycoin did quite well and has been up high on the leader boards at cryptsy for some time.

nope. try again.

Thank you for replying to me, but your answer isn't very clear.

Not only did paycoin emerge out of the mining section, but it also has this thread which is in the bitcoin section of the forum, when alot of other 'altcoins' are restricted to posting only in the altcoin section at bitcointalk.
And this thread is amongst the top 10 busiest threads at bitcointalk.

Can you say why this thread is here, and not in the altcoin section of the forum?

Perhaps you could read this thread.

Or at least read the OP?

This thread is in the "Service Discussion" Section. Which is not the "Bitcoin" section. It is not a thread about paycoin as the title and content would indicate.

I read much of the op.

You want me to read 40000 posts? It said in the op to read the most recent 10 pages, which is 200 posts, I am not going to do that, so I skim a little to get a rough idea about things.
Are you saying that altcoins are allowed to post in this service discussion forum?(there is an altcoin marketplace and services forum for altcoins)

It is a topic about multiple different matters, with paycoin in the midst of that discussion, and it has paycoin/xpy in the title of the thread.
I am not going to debate over this, I am simply noting that paycoin is an altcoin, and wondering why this thread isn't in the altcoin section, so I asked why, but no one really answered the question truthfully yet.

From what I have read, I discern that paycoin emerged out of the mining section of the forum, taking a different route than an announcement thread in the altcoin>announcements section of the forum.

Creating a scandal over 'josh garza' and these other issues, isn't that a subtle way to indirectly advertise paycoin? (I have been accused of this type of thing when I tried to post on bitcointalk, and had several threads deleted by mods, even though I was posting in the altcoin section, let alone trying to post here like paycoin is doing, so am wondering what is going on)

I am trying to understand what it is that makes an altcoin become successful like paycoin is successful.

It is important to gain some understanding, when thinking of buying/investing any altcoin.
