Even though it has a lot of spam, it still seems to be in better standing than the Cryptotalk from by the Yobit team because that is almost completely full of spam.
I had a look at that donation page and ended up with a headache. There are far too many options: Patron, Royalty, Donor, VIP and Immortals. The lowest amount to donate is 0.05 ETH but as you scroll down the page a new donor rank (Monarch) appears.
Seriously, who would pay to receive special treatment:
"Special Treatment:
All above ranks get special treatment, here's some examples of perks:
- Get some of the tokens we collect from the different ICOs & Airdrops
- Get Speedy distribution of tokens
- Get access to some reserved sections of the forum
- Get 3 to 10 token distribution transaction fees covered by us."
It is still possible for members from here to register there to earn from signature campaigns without donating (just as most of us are doing when we use this forum) but keeping that aside, who is behind
that forum? Rather than operate their alternative forum for crypto discussions to benefit the community they seem to be using it as a front to get as much money as possible via so-called donations.

Conclusion:This forum is trying to milk their users. If you go there and think you can milk them, think twice. Did theymos ever force any of you to pay for the forum expenses? Ever? This forum (shitcointalk) sells the basic forum features in the name of paying their expenses. (The expenses probably include a 50 feet long sailboat too) And you lose something when you don't post so they are forcing you to be active all the time (unless you pay to stay inactive)
This is worse than yobit's forum. This is a full blown pyramid scheme.
