    Wow, I just got up and have to read seven sites of disputing. That has nothing to do with community. If we keep on like this, we destroy the devs work.

    You can think about Barrabas whatever you want but he's right in many points. Let's take the good things out of his long posts  and forget the rest.
    In his paper he gave people a lot of arguments to be interested in VERICOIN that I don't find on the VRC Website. Apropos Website: how many of you have already put a link on their Website, FB and mail signature. That are the basics we can and should do.
     
    Just a few excited people like the devs, Xosihc, Reavon, Kevondo, Socal and even Barrabas aren't enough to win the fight. We all have to do what is necessary, that's what is called a "community"

    Once again, I disagree. Completely, of course. First of all, the community rarely participate in these forums, only a few loudmouths. Sadly, in most cases, with nothing to say.l Nor should the community necessarily participate in the forums. It should participate FUNDING projects that are worthwhile. And staking. And in the later, they do. In spades.

    As for the "excited" people it isn't that it isn't enough... the core of the matter is that some of those would do much better not doing anything because, frankly, they slow the pace of, worse, try to take the project in the wrong direction, distracting, confusing or rerouting... That said, the dev team should have clear and sharp as a whistle what the path to follow is, what the goals are and not stray into the nonsense they have and contionue having. The dev doesn't have neither the time, nor the dedication, nor the focus, nor the enthusiasm, let al,one the drive that is needed to take this project to the highest levels it can get. It is not surprising that, consequently, nothing is done or, worse, the most absurd things are done.

    You point out the obvious... that no one so far has bothered to even see, let alone point out: For anyone not already somewhat familiar with crypto, the website, including it's most sensible content, Doug's paper, has the same effect as it was written in esperanto. Totally meaningless. Totally lacking purpose. Just another conventional copy paste hack with different graphics.

    So, to put it straight, those enthusiastic, or excited, but toxic, should not do anything. More pointedly, those who lack the ...equipment to do anything, should do nothing. That includes a couple or three in that sentence of yours... and many others not mentioned too. Will and "excitement" will not make you or anyone run the 100 meters in under 12 seconds, get my meaning?
