Hilarious sec.

If you read what I wrote, you would have understood in what sense the forum is good.

I did read what you wrote. I don't think you read what I did. Nobody cares about traffic when it's full of rubbish. Theymos himself has said he cares little about forum income and has even thought about getting rid of the ad slot, so what good is traffic here? What good is a forum where 99% of it is utter drivel? This board is no longer a place to discuss bitcoin. It's a forum to earn from posting and most people post pure crap. I wouldn't have a problem if people only got paid for great posts but that's not what happens. Signatures have ruined this forum and it would be better off without them and without them people would still be able to get answers to their questions so don't act like signatures are some great thing that are the only thing keeping the board alive because they're not. We could come to some sort of compromise if theymos was willing to do something like removing signatures from lower ranks and punishing ICO campaigns for the spam but when is that going to happen?

Also, if you have any interest or questions regarding bitcoin, you can go to Technical support or technical discussion boards. Go there and ask something like how to recover a wallet, how to choose a wallet, whatever, which are very legit questions that get quickly answered everyday.

Whoop-dee-doo. All this info can be found by googling. What about all this drivel that is everywhere else:







That's what traffic and content signature campaigns bring you when you allow anyone to do whatever they want. Just farmers posting generic nonsense that is being 'text-spun' over multiple accounts.



Maybe you know everything, but this forum helps a lot of people, and helped me a lot already, before I even created an account.



I don't pretend to know everything, and all I can offer is my opinion, but I don't think pretending everything is A-OK isn't the way to go. That's just ignoring the problems we have whilst keeping our heads in the sand.
