i tried to convine him just yesterday. he said "no" and closed the thread. i respect devs but why are they so arsed about a bctalk thread.
I've just visited the official forum again and see that yak is still ruthless in his shutting down of any discussion about a thread here. I don't think he's on an ego trip, I think he's out of his depth and he knows it.
The unarguable fact is that users and investors get their information from BTCTalk. They can't be bothered to make endless accounts on endless, deserted and sycophantic single-coin forums - and with good reason. BTCTalk is the biggest crypto shop window by far and Neos refuses to use it on the grounds that some of the people are disagreeable. You don't get to choose, your coin is either for everybody or nobody - there are no niches.
So now, when people look for Neos, they will (eventually) find this thread and see that the trolls have been given free reign because the devs are too insecure to face them down, whilst the only other option is some brown-nosing forum moderated beyond any utility. It's pathetic. Add to this the rude, aggressive and self-serving attitude of yak and I can easily understand why investors would put their money elsewhere.
Meanwhile, whilst yak is playing politics and gaming the system, the price plummets.
