Cryptotalk
Cryptotalk was a very active forum where many members made contributions but most of it has been spam, probably due to Cryptotalk incentivizing posts. Last year, posts stopped to be incentivized and suddenly, no one wrote posts anymore. I just wondered why my new topics didn’t get any replies anymore.
Cryptotalk is dead now.
Even when it was active, most replies were of very low quality. Very disappointing.

Many have said it already that Cryptotalk was indeed connected to Yobit.

I can still remember the time where Yobit launched a signature campaign here, and correct me with this one, but I think they also launched a signature campaign with Cryptotalk here? Nevertheless, it's pretty obvious that people there are just posting for the rewards. Nothing more, nothing less. I visited their website a few minutes after I created this post, and last post that I saw there was around 11 hours ago in an ANN thread.

Altcoinstalks
Altcoinstalks is very different from Cryptotalk as it's an independent forum, similar like Bitcointalk. I have presented quite a few researches on Altcoinstalk, but discussions haven’t been very insightful but more insightful compared to Cryptotalk, of course. Biggest disadvantage from Altcoinstalks: Activity has been very low and for many topics only few replies have been left.
Very big issue of Altcoinstalk as well: it is focused on Altcoins and many useless Altcoins such like Tron or Ripple are shilled. Criticism of such coins is bashed.
Not a good showing to push such fraudulent coins.

I created an account here just to try and experience what it is to be on that forum.
It didn't took me a day for me to leave that forum. Not only because of the fact that, the posts there were only one liners, but like you said, you criticize the coins, you will get bashed as well. I also don't want to read some wall of texts out there that's why I left that forum.

- why your decision to be active here was in favor of Bitcointalk
or
- how you detected Bitcointalk,

Well, at first, I didn't really want to have some discussions or share my opinions with other people, but as time goes by, I'm learning from them and at the same time, I'm sharing my opinions based on what I know, and that increases my knowledge into a particular topic.

Me being active in the forum is because of the fact that you learn here. Well, Youtube videos also helped me, but reading some of the opinions here really helped me a lot. I'm not a technical guy, but at least I know the basics. Also the fact that most of the reputable players that helped Bitcoin and crypto are here such as Satoshi, Hal, Sirius etc. etc. is one of my reasons as well.

How did I detected or know Bitcointalk? My friend introduced me, and from that on, I learn and learn and learn until I reach what I am today.
