Coin bashing
-
Hey guys just wanted to put my two cents in about coin bashing. I think that we shouldn’t allow any coin bashing to take place on the FTC forums because we are just creating a bad vibe for crypto as a whole like that and I would hate to see the FTC forum looking like BTC-E trollbox. I think that we should all talk well of alt coins unless they are really really crap and are blatantly pump dump attempts. In the long run speaking well of alt coins as a whole will only bring more confidence about FTCs community and FTC as an alt coin itself.

I agree the internet is full of bash-sites so we should keep this forum clear of that.

[/quote]I agree. I do my best to keep the focus targeted on FTC… any help I can get in the forums would be truly appreciated.

[/quote]Yeah and it would be easier to start moderating it now rather than later.

Completely agree. Good call, it’s been something I’ve been a little worried about also.

[/quote]I’ll start drawing up a code of conduct document tomorrow morning and toss it to Bushstar to review. I’ll then pose it to the community and finally make it gold. It’s been on the list of things to do for awhile now, just something that needs to be finalized. The most important thing in my mind is respect. Our goal is to discuss different opinions/directions for Feathercoin while wish the best of luck to others that decide to support other alt coins.

I agree, but I’m all for [b]not[/b] censoring facts and freedom of speech! 8)
Why who has been coin bashing? I’ve not read every thread, but I have not seen anything that would be classed as FUD?..
Edit: Yeah I found it, it’s definitely more fact that total FUD though. :-\ But I suppose it will only lead to worse things, so yeah, nip it in the bud! 8)

[/quote]Awesome sounds great

Don’t know where to post; but there seems a conflict with Gamecoin blockchain. I guess it won’t affect us?

I don’t think we should ban the coin bashing, but move explicitly abusive threads to off-topic.
I can be a troll as much as anybody, I just see so many opportunities here I’m too busy to troll.

+1 on the code of conduct, it will make life much easier for Mods to shutdown trolling and flamewars and keep this a positive forum. Good work Justy and Bushy.

[/quote]Second that one,
make an own “off-topic” for people wanting to complain/bash on coins, also make that “topic” not count in the number of post created by user.
That way no one will become a “higher” member just because they love trolling :o -

[/quote]If we bash alt coins it will bring down the trust in all alt coins including FTC. If people go from one forum to another and all they see on every forum is people bashing alt coins there will be no trust in any alt coins. If they go to a community where only the blatantly bad alt coins are bashed then it will make sense to trust that community and what it has to say.
-
The bottom line, we have no competition on the direction we’re heading. There are other similar products, but they don’t have this combination of community… it’s just not there. I wish all coins the best of luck, I’ll make sure to pop open a bottle of $7 champagne in celebration for all our successes. Cheers.

I thought Litecoin had a good community behind it as well.

[/quote]Agreed, but they don’t have all you fine people in this exact configuration. :) Litecoin had quite a few challenges up front, they pulled together as a community and broke away from the pack. I have no doubt we’re heading for our own type of break-out.

[/quote]Yeah and I think it will be great to split away from the rest.

I agree with this. If you don’t set a standard there are no expectations for people.
