>>21358852About one or two years ago /biz/ jannies got bought out and started nuking most shitcoin threads. But they didn't touch the most obviously botted and astroturfed shitcoin threads cause that were the ones where the shillers paid jannies to keep them up. This also led to genuine good discussion threads getting either invaded by shill bots or pushed off board.
At the same time you also had obvious shitposts and low-effort bullshit being left out in open if you posted at least one low-effort sentence or copypasta which appeared to be related to finance along with it.
Final nail in coffin came when these faggots let slip how many posts they remove per 24 hours, which was way too low, and they had the fucking audacity to introduce email verification.
