Wow. For the guys suggesting one post per thread, how exactly do you expect us to enforce that?
That's not our problem really. A blanket ban on all posts pool related isn't the answer though.
And yes, you guys are right when listing the problems inherent with using this forum as the sole source of information about an altcoin, along with a thousand other coins. Which is the reason people spam in the first place, because there is no specific board for mining a particular coin, or for services for a coin, or whatever else. The only real answer is to setup coin specific forums, any serious coin will do this. The rest are pump and dumps, or scams that won't be around long enough, and we aren't going to cater to them. We won't setup coin specific boards here either. Spamming is a crutch people have used to get around these limitations, and it's getting out of hand.
You're still not addressing our concerns. We need to be able to give updates about pools in a timely manner. It isn't spam. It's only spam when it's unnecessary and/or repeated many times.
