First off, nobody is saying that this is not a legitimate project. Second off, the math error made by LogitechMouse does not really take away from the point made and calling names is childish.

The issue is that there was/is a preponderance of shill posts that did not make much sense and were copy/paste posts which you claim should get better with time in your point 3 above. An AI posting assistant is just silly (IMHO) so that people can get their airdop coins. The merit system was built to discourage posts like these. The accounts are getting banned because they add absolutely no value at all to the topic in which they post them.

I admire the idea of trying to discourage whales from owning large quantities of the coin, but the main point of the post was not to bad-mouth the coin or its devs or its community members. It was simply to point out the shill posts.

I said myself in the OP that 'This coin may not even be the only one doing this. I just haven't noticed any others.' The fact that your coin's posts stood out to multiple different people as being shill posts says something. I'm sure your coin is not the only one and I'm sorry if your account(s) were banned for your posts. Established accounts were not included in my OP to be considered as stated 'I know I am not alone when I say that I am sick of the Brand New/Newbie accounts being created simply to post once or twice in various threads about Marinecoin.'

Again, I hope you can understand my points and realize that I was not directly attacking established members or the project as a whole. It was simply about the posts.

As I already said, I apologise for calling names. I got angry because there is a major difference between trillion and billion and a 450 trillion coin supply makes it look like a bad joke. Yes, many of the airdrop seekers were completely irresponsible when choosing topics. A mechanism has already been put in place to report and slowly remove these topics from the AI database when making suggestions to improve post quality and topic relevance. The AI was introduced because some airdrop seekers were making bad quality posts to get the 450k coins in Phase I. Any project needs some amount of promotion to succeed, you'll agree. It just happens that Marinecoin devs chose this form of promotion to be the best.

Well this is just silly. All it does is give people a negative perception of your coin because they see it being spammed everywhere by shills. If you want to promote it then do it in other ways or at least reward people for doing something constructive as opposed to just signing up to make an off topic post or thread in the wrong section.

The community has already discussed with the devs on opening other channels for the airdrop as well and he is open to it. But the current focus is on bitcointalk because most of the crypto world hangs out here. No other reason. Community members have also started working on a marketplace program where members can get airdrops for constructive tasks. As mentioned above, a mechanism has already been put in place to report and slowly remove irrelevant topics from the AI database when making suggestions to improve post quality and topic relevance.
