Getting added to the OP by requesting the devs via PM is a joke. It happens maybe 50% of the time, and never quickly.

Not our problem. If a dev wants his coin to succeed he will do everything possible to make sure he does have the pool list included. If he can't be bothered to do that then why would anyone want to bother with it?

So if a pool owner posts his pool in a thread... he will get banned?? Roll Eyes

How about limiting that post too 1 in each announcement thread?

Im really sorry I have too say this... But this is NOT the priority you should be looking at right now with all those scamcoins around these days..

People lose money everyday over scams...

But instead of helping the community, by setting stricter rules for coin announcements on here... you worry about poolowners who advertise their pools...

I really cant understand this... Sorry Undecided

Remove scamcoins? Ok. *deletes alt currencies* Grin

What sanctions? Imagine, I can create an account and spam ads of competitors.

We can press one button and ban an account, and remove all it's posts automatically. I don't think it's going to be a problem.

in my opinion this is nonsense and more like a fight with competitors

That's part of what prompted this, now it's fair for everyone, instead of some arbitrary rules that nobody is going to remember. Besides, this isn't some special rule just for alt currencies, when is the last time you saw a bitcoin mining pool advertising outside of Mining>Pools? Alt currencies has always received less moderation than the rest of the forum, and probably always will, but the pool spam is crazy and we're tired of dealing with the spam generated.
