We are contemplating a self moderated thread in order to more effectively address the issues of our great players as many questions are lost in the spam comments and remarks.
On the the one hand it will allow us to focus on assisting players, but on the other our thread won't be bumped as much which always helps us attract more visitors.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
I would be in favor of a self-moderated thread for the reasons you mentioned. It would also make it easier for those of us who are already well aware (or not well aware, but don't care anyways) of all the issues regarding the site which people have concerns about to not have to scroll through all the same old stuff over and over and over again just to see if there are any new updates or news regarding the site and the games.
The campaign thread is so much more better and less cluttered ever since it became self-moderated. XiaoXiao's affiliate thread is much more useful and coherent for his rakers.
Allow those who feel the need to continuously remind everyone and keep people - new and old - aware of what they perceive to be egregious misdeeds and scammery by betcoin.ag to do so in their own threads as much as they want, to their heart's content. They have every right to do so, just as you have every right to create a new self-moderated thread.
It would also make it easier for those interested in the nefarious goings on of betcoin.ag to keep up to date on things or post their own updates and findings/evidence by checking out the thread(s) of those who wish to inform people of such things and not have to scroll through stuff they aren't interested in such as site updates, tourney info, affiliate offerings or shill posts. Their threads will be just as easily visible as yours for people who might be interested either way. A win for betcoin.ag, a win for betcoin haters and those with a personal agenda, a win for those wishing to keep the community informed of betcoin's bad behavior, a win for players, a win for prospective players, a win for all.
As far as your self-moddded thread not getting bumped as much, I think it would be fair to post anything you feel your customers would be interested in knowing, such as any important updates, promotions, significant/new tournaments, important dates, issues, player news, improvements, resolutions, etc just as you currently do now in addition to dealing with customer's issues, questions, grievances and feedback.
Excellent feedback. Many Bitcointalk members and staff have urged us to do this for months. This thread is now closed.
Here is our poker lobby when Betcoin Poker first launched just under 3 years ago, we have come a long way but there is still a long way to go. Thank you everyone for your support:
