I feel like BitcoinTalk became some sort of "earning opportunity" over the years and now it's now just a bunch of people who are new to bitcoin and can barely form sentences in english. What happened?
I think that the more Bitcoin gets covered by news posts, social-media, etc.. The more people join the forum and spam bounty campaigns and seem to be spamming posts to earn merit which is something that you wouldn't see in the last years.  Sad

Let me know what you guys think.

What Board in the forum you usually reading post? I regularly visiting many threads daily and I only read few newbie post that describes your concern. I usually post on Altcoin, Gambling and Meta. Maybe you are always visiting spam Megathread on Discussion board or Beginners and Help board. There's a lot of newbie post out there that don't have much quality for learning. I'm in the forum for many years and this is not the first this issue occur so don't be sad. It's part of a newbie phase which will develop in the future once they are actively engaging on discussion here. Forum is still standing despite of bunch spam post during 2017 ICO season tho. This is not the worst if you've been during that time. Maybe check those blacklist spammer user of different trusted user here like Actmyname, Lauda and many more...
