Or, we all sign up and when they don't pay us we can all put a flag on all their accounts.
I know theymos thinks he is doing the correct thing in not moderating scams or nuking large parts of the forum that are a breeding ground for scammers, but sooner or later IMO having all this stuff festering here is going to hurt crypto.

In my humble opinion, this forum doesn't have a lot of effect on the world of crypto anymore. Crypto is bigger. And it's still full of scams. Nothing going on here will hurt crypto nearly as much as a pump-and-dump celebrity influencer.

I'm not trying to speak for theymos, but I'm not sure he thinks he's "doing the correct thing," but rather allowing the community to choose what's right or wrong. Having a hands-off approach doesn't mean he's impartial. Quite recently he stepped in to take remedial action against scams. But these are different situations, and can't really be compared.
