I wouldn't worry about it too much. Does any organic traffic actually land at that site? Not really.

Here's a quick comparison of the site's traffic metrics according to Similarweb:

Bitcointalk Global Rank: #39,778 Worldwide
Altcoinstalks Global Rank: #540,599 Worldwide

Bitcointalk Monthly Visits: 1.5 million
Altcoinstalks Monthly Visits: 45.4 thousand

Bitcointalk Traffic Sources: 42.54% Search
Altcoinstalks Traffic Sources: 10.45% Search


I assume the campaigns there are paying peanuts compared to here. Also, its got to be a complete spamfest, which is why its not attracting organic traffic. If people want to make a few extra bucks by posting there, good for them. I don't think it will detract from Bitcointalk's status.
What the Op is saying is "futuristic". And he is saying how the evolution will happen if people are teleporting to that side daily. But you only made mentioned or analyzed the past and present data or population of the two sides.  The op said the ban of mixers is making wave for the shitcoinstalks or altcoinstalks forum to secure more traffic compared to the time when mixers have not gone to the other forum or banned here. In the world of capitalism, population is one the great element needed to promote any business or project before quality. Bitcointalk is more popular because the great population and if great number of users in this forum go to that side, it will make that side more popular as well. Then let us come to the quality. Yes those people you mentioned are prestigious members here but how many of them participate and use the signature campaigns and their services. Other users are also needed for the growth of the community. In a community, the poor and the rich live together for the expansion and the growth and the development of the the community. Everyone in the community has their role to play, and failure of one part affect the other side. In any organic system, there are three elements for the progressive of it. The first one is growth: And bitcointalk.org has passed the stage of growth and every orgasm must passthrough this stage so altcoinstalks is on that stage now and that is why the Op said, the evolution is high in the future there. Then secondly, the development stage: This is last stage of all organisms and bitcointalk is in this stage. This is the stage where quality is needed, more features are needed in this stage to beautify the organism or the project. And altcoinstalks has not come to this stage but still on the growth stage so the Op has foresaw what will happen in the future and not the present. And what is happening in the present tells what will happen in the future.

Then concerning the peanut you said. Yes the other forum has peanut as the reward to the participants but it was a manager from here initiated that payment there and others follow suit and presently has brought it to this forum as well. Didn't you think others might follow suit? Since the competition is not like before again. Yes the spamfest is high there but the visibility and the participation of users in the services of the campaign sites is one of the major thing in the advertisement. Qualitative is highly needed in all advertisement but according to the Holy Bible, let all grow together.
