Legendary Escrow Service - Tip Jar in Profile







LegendaryActivity: 2506Merit: 1054Legendary Escrow Service - Tip Jar in Profile Why move all threads regarding the fork to Altcoin Discussion? June 15, 2015, 09:58:18 PM #1 Im puzzled why someone is moving all threads from bitcoin discussion, that speak about the coming fork, to altcoin discussion. Im not sure why anyone would think it has to do with altcoin at all. Its all "Bitcoin" that these threads are about.



I hope no siding is involved, things like that should stay in the proper subforum where it can be discussed. Pushing it to altcoin discussion subforum means that its misplaced and most probably wont be seen very often by forum members that are interested in the topic. Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

I would argue that those threads should remain in bitcoin discussion until it becomes clear if the fork is going to happen or not. If it will ultimately not happen then they belong in altcoin discussion, however until that it more clear, then the threads are discussing what will potentially happen to the Bitcoin protocol.

That was my first thought too. That a mod has taken a side of the discussion. Though i dont want to believe this since i would want to think mods dont act this way.



Its about the future of bitcoins and one of the bitcoin chains will survive. Discussing the future of bitcoin in an altcoin subforum is simply not correct.

I am fairly certain this will not be disclosed, however I would be curious to know who moved the threads and/or if a higher ranking moderator had made the decision that the threads should be moved The mods most likely have some kind of opinion on the matter, however when making decisions as a moderator of their section(s), they should be as neutral as possible. It seems this was not the case here.I am fairly certain this will not be disclosed, however I would be curious to know who moved the threads and/or if a higher ranking moderator had made the decision that the threads should be moved The head executive of the executive office of the department of the redundancy departments office

All of the moderators have orders from the administrators to move threads solely about Bitcoin XT to the alt currencies section. Threads involving both Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin XT are allowed to stay in Bitcoin discussion.

Sounds like this forum is run like an army and less like a forum about a DECENTRALIZED currency would be run if following the currency's vision. Yes sir, yes ma'am or as trump would say "You're fired". I'm a lover not a hater. I'm a scam buster misunderstood. However, this forum is full of haters which is why you see my trust. They can't handle my success so they try to stop me...BUT NO ONE STOPS MY SUCCESS! ....Find Quickseller annoying? Click the "ignore" button below his name! You're welcome!

This is how any established organization is going to run. Employees/workers are almost never (and really should never) going to be able to make whatever decision they want based on their own beliefs, but will rather conform to a set of rules and guidelines. There needs to be an established chain of command and an operational hierarchy in order to maintain order. If there was not these kinds of hard rules then mods would likely end up moving threads back and forth between subs because they believe certain threads belong in certain sections while other mods think they belong in other sections. It would be a mess.This is how any established organization is going to run.
