The not walking away leaving the people in the lurch holding the bag part is very hard to believe of all these recent politicians (lets be honest, politician is a much more accurate word than developer for people who cannot even do search and replace or cut and paste) who right in front of our eyes start out with the very first step of their journey being to walk away and leave everyone in the lurch holding the bag.
For example all the coders and sysadmins and such who are left to do all the actual work of maintaining and updating and debugging and keeping running smoothly the coins the community already has, more and more of which were already foisted off on the community by exactly that same type of politician.
Their first step always seems to be 'screw the community, screw everyone's hard work they have already put in, what is needed here is to trash all that crap and pump out yet another brand new - my brand, of course, that is - steaming pile of shit, because doing the actual work of making things work is the job of lesser beings, me I am a head honcho, a bigwig politician, keeping things running, cleaning up the messes my predecessors already stuck the community with, all that crap is janitor stuff, me I am much too important for that kind of crap, my crap involves crapping whole new steaming piles of crap all over you, heck if you really get into the stench of my crap you won't even notice or care anymore about my predecessors crap...'
Yeah i think politician is a much better word than dev or developer for those types...
How about showing how much you care about the community by helping it secure at least a few blockchains, instead of spewing out yet more blockchains while we still haven't managed to secure the ones we already have?
How about showing how much you care by working on or offering bounties for fixes and improvements to what the commnity already has spent years investing into instead of trying to make it all look like an endless sequence of scams?
Gosh if I keep thinking along these lines I could easily imagine acquiring a distaste for politicians...

I agree completely. But can't you see I have already offered bitcoins out of my pocket and NUGs and nothing has been done. I have offered a $1,000 new diesel jacket to anyone who does a major job.
WTF do you want me to do Mark that I haven't already done. Every Board I've been on the miners do most of the bounty payouts not the devs so how can you already call me a politician.
And on top of all that I've already set aside $1,000 for a coin design by a pro and the help from a PhD forensic computer scientist. And if you think I'm lying, but I haven't yet so you should give me the benefit of the doubt, I will get his precision to publish some of his white papers and thesis work and maybe a picture. His fees for corps are up in the $300 per hour but my bro things he'll help me for $20 per hour.
Pebble, is I don't know what a forensic guy knows about this stuff and C++, maybe you can give me an idea.
And finally, there's an exchange open yet I haven't sold a single coin. R3 and programmer X both know my wallet addresses and can see I'm telling the truth.
So far I've done more for this coin, given its been just 3 days than any dev I've seen and I'm broke. What do you want from me. I am literally doing all I can with what I have to work. I'm now bountying my favorite diesel jacket. Doesn't that mean anything to you people? Have you seen anyone work that hard to keep his coin working?
It would be cheaper and easier for me to dump all my coins, start a new name from Europe and in 60 days launch a new con. It would be wayyyy cheaper. You're being unfair expecting me to move maintains when I'm on a limited budget and I'm being more than fair and generous yet I'm getting ZERO help from those who can program.
Devs are nothing by policitivisns but so far everything I have done I clouding the smack talking has been the exact opposite. A scammer would be kissing ass and never insult anyone. Obviously care more about what's right and fighting against the lies against me than I care about a popular coin or money so that's the opposite of a politician.
Cut me a break, give me credit for what I've done and am trying to do given i have limited resources and lets get the community involved end where I can pay bounties I'll lay what I can afford.
Cause 50,000 NUGs were nothing and one jerk laughed at that so I doubled it and at 100.000 NUGs for small jobs there will bomb eh left Ina ,after of days.
So no, I will not get o,shed. I will pay the same proportion in pay as other coins like ixCoin, devcoin and so on which in dollar terms comes out to nothing and that's the meaning of open source. Don't expect me to pay every dime in my account for small jobs - people will have to help be see they naive in this coin and if not then let it die. Me, I believe but there's only so much I can do and from looking around, coins which have a huge market cap compared to mine pay pitiful pitiful bounties.
I'll go on record and say that if my coin was worth $3 I would pay very generous bounties so much so that every dev would be forced to quadruple their bounties. But nobody does that cause they're colluding to get professional programming for jr high school pay. I will not do that but now I'm at the begining and I have little so there's gonna have to be some give and take. Snow me just 1 dev show is trying as hard as me or has breaks host or generous as me.
When the programmer X had the program running I offered to pay him nearly double even though I paid him in full already. He declined to accept. I did the same thing with r3. The same with the guy who wasn't a programmer. Most people I have paid my heart went out and I raised their pay for no reason even they were happy with the pay we agreed with.
How many devs who are broke do you know to be that generous in secrecy and for no reason - just cause they feel it on their heart, I've seen none nearly double an already spendy bounty when rant guy was plenty happy with the bounty. That what generosity is and you can't pretend to be generous - it's in the heart end it comes out end it's like you not even stop yourself and its right and it feels good. But if you're broke and just starting our its just not possible.
If I'm doing that now when I'm so broke what do you think I'll do if I start making money. Trust me - I will forever change the lay stricture for all devs and for all bounties because its eight and if you have a good coin you should share the wealth you cheap selfish bastards.
So I'm sorry, but I cannot put out more financial support than I have and for some of the bounties like .2 BTC to start a pool where they will make all the money not me is a fair bounty. The .25 BTC to just copy and paste some code is more than fair. Compared to what I have seen on other boards these no tore re fair and when you consider I'm all alone and this is a new coin those bounties are actually generous.
This is open source, why don't some of you that know real programming help a single struggling. Dev who 's not a pump and dump scamming politician. Lets be real scammers don't do what I do they do the opposite . Kiss assesses, never offend a hone, hide their IDE identity, pay little to no bounties, beg for bounties (ok I've asked for help chide that's how it works), promise stuff that's never gonna happen, dump their coins the second an exchange shows up.
I don't fit the scammer profile to the least bit. You want a new breed of devs, then I'm it. And the nature if quick money of crypto-coin will not bring people like me in. I'm a anomaly and I came in case I saw devcoin and ixCoin as the next bitcoin 2.0 and Bitcoin 3.0 but then when I saw what shitty coin were putting out and nobody said anything it made me angry and I said, I can do better than that and I'm not even a dev.
I'm asking for trust and for help just Because I'm the exact opposite of the devs here by far, I don't have one bone in my body like theirs.. If you get rid of me you'll never get a true guy like me ever again. You'll be stuck with used car salesman types and selfish pumpers looking for a quick buck. You'll miss the days when a guy trying to launch a coin wasn't afraid to insult the biggest most popular guy on here if he thought he was in the right and did everything even sold the clothes on his back to make this coin work. Trust me man, guys like me just don't exist in the money world. If this coin fails its not gonna be cause I didn't try I will give i all I got but I will not be a sucker and pay 3 times what other established devs pay with budgets 10 times what I have. That would be stupid of me and I simply can't afford it. The bounties i set so far are fair - more than fair in some cases.
Thanks for the advice and good luck.
