Because I've had people that registered a matter of months ago claiming I was new. Which isn't the case.  As for "buying an account", I'd have to assume that if someone wished to do that, they would have picked someone that was more active, right? What is the point in buying an almost 3 year old account with relatively minor post count?

A bit of research will show that I've participated in giving the Multibit client feature requests and also I used to recommend it to new users. You can also see that I was active with Bitcoinget from the beginning. I just posted my total earnings from that site. I guess I could have posted a screenshot but I didn't think that this community has gotten this bad.  It used to be a friendly community, but I guess in my absence alot of scammers have come (and gone).

I'm sorry if I assumed that the community is still like it used to be.

There has already been a couple of members that looked at my blog and found nothing wrong with it (like scam or viruses etc) and even offered me suggestions on making it better.  Yet most of the posts on this thread either say or imply that I'm a scam site.

PS. What do you mean by "sign a btc address that has been posted here? If you mean something such as posting my bitcoin address for Bitcoinget, that's not a problem. If you mean something else, please explain.

FWIW, I saw nothing wrong with the site other than the URL structure (noted on page 1). And you're right, the community has absolutely changed. 99% of the new things around here turn out to be scams or viruses. People are even releasing new altcoins that are designed to do nothing but steal private keys. It's ridiculous and out of control. But that's what happens when all the media focuses on is how Bitcoin is a great tool for scamming and illegal activity.
