This is an official split being orchestrated by Jean-Luc and the Foundation / committees / marketing members. This goes against everything that NXT was founded upon. Damelon, EvilDave, Farl4web, and all the other people who are / were involved in the NXT Foundation / committees / marketing team are responsible for destroying NXT and its ideology. They are doing so for their own greedy financial motives. They have centralized everything in NXT under the auspice of "getting mainstream adoption for NXT", but in reality they have destroyed the original, decentralized, grassroots movement behind NXT. These individuals claim that they are going to get "banks and big business" to use NXT. But, the truth is that no bank or big business is ever going to use NXT. That was never the intent behind the creation of NXT. NXT was designed to be a currency for the people not "banks and big businesses". These individual then elicit funds from the community like leeches to fund their private vacations to conferences and bogus jobs that they have created for themselves. They contract out work to each other in a nepotistic manner at greatly inflated cost to keep the game going. They paint the currency holders who don't give them money as "greedy", but in reality, they are the greedy ones. They claim the currency holders are the ones that are responsible for NXT's demise, when in reality they are the root cause of it.
Why don't you try and resurrect NXT 1.0 yourself then? Isn't the point of decentralization to allow people to interact with each other freely? If you can convince enough like minded people to join you, and if you're prepared to back your vision for NXT with time and resources, then I don't think anyone will try and stop you.
You're disappointed NXT didn't make you buckets of cash like you thought back in Nov 2013, just deal with it! Nobody in the NXT community can force anybody else to do anything they don't want to, that's always been the case, and always will be. The people you criticise above haven't done anything to you, and they can't force you to do anything now, so I don't see what you're complaining about. NXT is beautiful still!
You sound like one of those people who love free speech, but only when people say what you like. You're just pissed because you don't have the skillset to do anything on your own, and you've marginalised yourself as a perma-critic of everyone, except AMP afaik.
In a free community people are free, and you're free to keep using NXT 1.0 as long as you're prepared to support it, so I think BCNext probably feels OK about things.
NXT 1.0 lives on
NXT 2.0 lives on
Simple
You need to criticise others less, and do more yourself, even if all you do is communicate constructively. A guy like Damelon can't write a line of code, but he's made himself useful doing other things, and has earned lots of community respect, even from people who disagree with him, like me sometimes. Do the same, nobody is stopping you. Try and win the argument. All you're doing above is venting your frustrated greed and abusing productive people who haven't harmed you one IOTA! There aren't any NXT cops beating you up, just yourself.
