Although I understand that BTCtalk isn't the center of the universe I tend to disagree with avoiding it totally. I'm always surprised at the lack of logic in crypto sometimes.
Here is a spot where 90% of those involved in crypto get their news/updates on the coins they hold and it is avoided by a few teams because it's below them or they don't have time or really whatever excuse.

All I'm saying is it seems immature and short minded to disregard a portion(regardless of size) of your followers because you fail to value the source they use to get their updates.

I hold some RZR, think it's a contender and would like to expand my position but this type of thinking worries me.
