If signatures or signature advertising are banned, trust me, this forum will go to its lowest activity in years. Not a good thing for bitcoin adoption, is it?
I have seen so many businesses thrive after advertising themselves here.

I imagine some users quite like the idea of a tight knitted community like it was back in the old days. However, in reality there's always been complaints about the state of the forum. I'm not trying to discredit that either, there's clearly some issues here, especially in the altcoin section. However, we do have a set of dedicated reporters that try to clear that place up as much as possible, and a dedicated bunch of moderators, and I don't mean the section dedicated, but the entire team from global, dedicated, and patrollers clearing up that section.

I've literally removed pages upon pages in a matter of a few hours at times. Although, I must say that most of the reports we have, were from posts that were around the 2018 mark. So, while we do still have spam now, it's either much less seen or in reduced quantities since we have a few users that report, and they all report older posts rather than newer posts.

I think the gambling section especially has a current problem, which is ongoing though. Most of the spam can be seen in the mega threads over there. Where as the altcoin section is more thread dependant, i.e those that used bumping services or promised the earth, and therefore generated a lot of hype.
