I'm sorry, but this sounds like the whining of someone that doesn't know how to use site:bitcointalk.org in Google. This is a technical forum for technically minded individuals that are interested in Bitcoin. Non-technical users have other places they will be - they won't be interested in altcoins or mining. If you are a technically minded individual with an interest in mining, I'm pretty sure you're able to Google for info on the altcoin of choice and stumble across it. Newbs don't need to see new scamcoin announcements as they come in, they need to familiarise themselves with the landscape before they get caught up in this fast-moving space.

Just because you're an technical person doesn't mean that you want to spent hours on a search engine if it could be so much easier for everyone.
Of course I can use Google and/or the search function of the forum but it is simply inefficient and sometimes even partially ineffective.
If every coin had it's own section, you could just hop between coin infos and could always find the latest news/hottest topics of a particular currency.

As it is every time you come back you have to redo the search and manually/visually have to filter out the crap.

But never mind. Obviously nobody sees the need for it so I won't bother trying to convince anyone anymore.
It's a mystery to me but whatever.

Thanks for reading & commenting, though.
