tech talk is all on slack, waves seems to care very little about what goes on in bitcointalk..
do you blame them? BCT is full of trolls and abnormal BS. if you need information slack is the only way to go. devs are present and responsive.
Yes, devs are so responsive that they ban like there is no tomorow, and they have the need to make it an "invitation" only.

Wonder why that is.

Ah yea, you answered it perfecly, it's because of trolls ! Must be that.. Definetly. Wonder why there are no problems in most other slacks with professional teams.
Let me add a victimisation sentence, because you know, poor Waves team, they are harassed by stupid Bct people.
You know the same they came to suck their dicks to get money in the first place.

Bad people really. Because Waves team has shown so many good moves not.
