I don’t think it’s any worse than Bitcoin Discussion, Speculation or even Meta. I mean how many threads are started in Meta about Merit? The same nonsense, poor English written, threads about Merit? I must have seen hundreds over the years.

Bitcoin Discussion has been a cesspool of shit-posting for years. My advice is just report what you consider to be low quality posting. I don’t think it’s a big deal, there are hundreds of shit posters on the forum. Spammers, scammers, broken English all over the place.

Just report low quality and/or spam posts.

This is my exact feeling all around BitcoinTalk that I came to express here. This whole forum is becoming a broken low IQ shitshow. Perpetuated by these signature give-aways.

Anywhere there is a way on the internet to make 5c in crypto doing a boring task ever since 2018, be that a faucet, a P2E game, blogging, or even posting on BitcoinTalk, a hoard of people from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Philippines etc jump into the mix and type total nonsense broken English low IQ brain dead bullshit. They have no sense of community, they don't care about what they are writing about, they don't want to be here, they just want their 5 cents and would leave in a split second if that 5c trophy were taken away.

It makes anything completely unreadable on this entire forum. I'm trying to find anything remotely interesting anywhere. Instead I see low IQ thread titles with low IQ posting that doesn't make any sense everywhere. Always from these gambling-ad people. A guy with a lot of history on this forum recently had one of the most brain dead takes of all time where I was posting recently, it was so bad I swear it almost caused me whiplash. This is only possible for the above reasons.

My only solution would be a very harsh one. Ban either the signature campaign stuff and/or the gambling logo/signature stuff. I'd happily give up mine but I'm also not paid for it nor do I care. I'm just here for the content.

I do think such an action would hugely lower interactivity on the forum, but I think the ends would justify the means, especially when that interactivity is just useless fluff making things shitty in the first place. It makes honest users like myself completely incapable of doing anything here.

Mildly shilly (apologies in advance) but I have to post it anyway, but MintDice actually wrote an article detailing this exact problem, what causes it, what it looks like and how to fix it with real world examples. Perhaps worth a read:
