I joined here recently to learn more about BTC and altcoins, and get the pulse of the scene. Unfortunately it's full of shills, crapflooders, and people who can't put together a coherent three-word sentence.
Mods aren't doing much either: I've reported a dozen posts with 100% accuracy, and think perhaps two have resulted in visible action (shut down threads). I just wrote a separate thread about a persistent abusive poster who keeps shilling on multiple altcoin threads - have reported him several times with 100% accuracy (whatever that means), no action taken.
Frankly I think leaving is the only option, unless you have the time and determination to wade through a metric ton of BS.
