This forum is broken. It's meant to be a place for people new to Bitcoin to talk & understand what the big deal is.
When I joined this forum not long ago, I remember finding some great threads in here & attempting to get involved. It was good.
Now this place is just becoming a joke. Money hungry gambling sites, alt coins etc. are just spamming giveaways and other stuff. Their giveaways are giving away literally nothing, and makes the whole Bitcoin community seem like desperate kids attempting to get their hands on minuscule amounts of BTC.
Can we please fix this?

There are still interesting discussions, and still people who truly beleive in the future of bitcoins.
But it is also true that gambling is steadily taking over - I already voiced out my opinion on that matter, and worse, the scamming activity has probably became a daily pay-check for some people.
This is saddening me too, but cutting through the forum would only lead the undesired people to regroup elsewhere, and while you would be happy reading a forum with less noise, those scums would still continue ruining Bitcoin credibility. I'd rather know what they're up to and possibly have a little control over their activity.
When bitcoin started, only true beleivers - I missed that train, and those good old times
- got interested. Now that it's up to 100$, it got people attention as an easy money-making vector. This was to be expected, and is part of the bitcoin life-cycle. Bitcoin is supposed to be widely adopted, this includes crooks and greedy fucks.Waiting for better times, you might wanna click on the link in my sig for a refreshing riddle game, and possibly design one of your own, which I'd be happy to try and crack!
