RE: In Defense of bitsharestalk.org
Agree on all points, but believe the future is migrating forums like Bitsharestalk to Steemit. People go where the money is, and it would be absolutely gangbusters for Bitshares development if we could move everyone over to Steemit. Many Steemit whales are core Bitshares devs and Steemit could provide all needed funding to get Bitshares to where it needs to be.
We can have the best of both worlds, posting (and cross-posting) announcements and milestones in steemit as well as the forum, but have the 30-page-long threads over at the forum instead.
Little help topics for instance, I think the forum is also a much better match for that .. or at the very least use #bitshares-help or something to keep track ..
But see, once again .. then what else do we have? #bitshares-newbies ? #bitshares-lostfunds ?
A gazillion others?
So much easier to sort these over at the forum, in my opinion at least!
I completely agree, Steemit is kind of an ADD platform with a content lifespan of 12 hrs or less. I'm not a tech guy at all, but is it not possible to build a forum on top of Steemit? As far as I understand steemit.com is just an interface and it can be made to look like anything, dev's chose to do a reddit/social media thing cause it would allow the greatest variety of content out of the gate. But I don't see any reason a forum couldn't be built on steemit. Hopefully it's on the roadmap...
Boom. +1 to all of this
