It's frustrating when there are long gaps in communication and missed deadlines, but IMO it's better to just do something productive instead of sitting around going "when? why? wtf?"
For example, I've done a bunch of tweeting, emailing, in-person promoting, etc. on behalf of Murraycoin during the slow periods; my technology skills are limited (just started Java Programming 102 this semester, and any websites I've ever made have been super sloppy) so I don't have a whole lot to contribute, but I see no point in being overly negative. Shit or get off the pot, but don't fart up the place.
I'm not talking trash on people who express their concerns here, that's what forums are for... I just don't think people who might be new to a coin such as 888 would like seeing too much FUD or pseudo-FUD from its community.
Have a great weekend, guys!
I don't disagree with you in principle re: doing what you can. That's what communities are for and that's how they make or break a coin, BUT, I think the problem with Octocoin is that its been so enigmatic nobody knows what they can do or what they are promoting, at least with other coins if you can read code and blockchain transactions what you see is pretty much what you get and they present a much more amateur outlook where the dev is happy for contributions and ideas. Of course other coin devs may also have their own agenda and many of them can't be trusted as far as you can throw them but because the coins and the very ideas behind them are open source they, as projects, can be taken on or over by communities. Octocoin has, for me at least, always had a proprietary feel to it.
Like others have said, I only gambled what I can afford to lose but like any form of gambling, losing never makes you smile!
And
IF I lose... I'm taking my bag with me!
