God forbid someone creates something. This is the exact bullying nonsense I always talk about as why this forum has lost its most valuable participants. If people think Bitcoins success was due to it keeping out what is deemed low quality users instead of fostering innovation and giving builders an immutable platform, they are lost.

I wouldn't say this is "bullying", this is more of double standards, stereotypes, and some people's constant willingness to find problems with low ranked members. Like the positivity level is at par to zero.

But yeah there's some sort of bullying here though, it always has, and always will, so long as this is a part of internet where people can sit in their basements and make fun of people in a hurtful way. But the most valuable participants left because of the spam, and lack of individuals who understand bitcoin but all they found was individuals who thought bitcoin was brought up by illuminati, and that satoshi lives in a hut located in Bermuda Triangle.

It seems like people are more concerned with trying to get Moderator positions by berating newbies than they care about Bitcoin actually having use cases that bring value to this forum.

The perks here are useless, except for signatures, so being a Mod is something people would love to get, because they get to look "cool" ,unlike the boring legendaries and other stupid ranks. Some people are actually interested in modding the forum, to try fighting against the spam, but things are as slow as the Internet Explorer here, so things never lift off. Undecided
