We are having a live telecast of the Community Manager and Multipool Dev team answering questions this Thursday at 7pm, Do you guys even Know that?
Iconic I personally pm you and one more time would like to speak to you before the telecast Q&A. Ive said it before you are very passionate and have brought allot of projects to the table. It is important that we talk about your projects and this current situation. In my humble opinion, For the good of the community this misunderstandings have to stop.
I'm trying to arrange a meeting with u today so that we can all be on the same page moving forward. Everyone wants the best for BlackCoin.We just have to come together to promote BlackCoin.
Please PM Wizfarm in IRC.
Thanks
I think this is a good step forward - however, despite having some difference of opinions with IE...
I fully support his endeavors without reserve. I agree that the coin as a brand needs a coherent team behind development - but that's what the "DEV TEAM" should be involved with. If BlackCoin was a corporation with a board of directors and officers... with a commercial product, etc... then I might feel differently. However, I think the relatively overnight success has blinded some people to the facts.
Like all crypto currencies (even Bitcoin) there
is no central board of directors - and even when there are... you don't see anyone (except Apple possibly) running all over the web trying to discount enthusiastic individuals' efforts to promote their brand/product simply because their marketing department didn't "bless it appropriately".
As there was no true 'premine' with BC (despite what those late to the party would like people to believe) the road ahead seems very simple to me. If you support someone's efforts - do it
with your BlackCoins!
I would propose, rather than a "BlackCoin Foundation" that all members have individual BC addresses posted - so that they may operate on the budgets indicated by donations to those. I know I've donated a few times to both Soepkip and rat4... as well as to TDG for multipool promotions and to IE for past efforts (and will again in the future undoubtedly).
I would further propose that we have some 'bounty donations' for improvements, especially to the wallets to make them stand out feature-wise against those which have subsequently copied and pasted their way to limited success. However, bickering one way or the other doesn't really help. If you believe there are better ways IE could approach something - suggest it (I'm sure he will consider other ideas) - and if you're convinced you could do a better job... then just do it - and let everyone know about it
when you do.
Same goes for the 'foundation' group... if you think things should be different... contact
Soepkip directly - that's his 'job'. If you think IE could use more/less support - then contact
him directly. If there is anything that will kill BlackCoin - or help it succeed - it's the community or lack thereof.
Although having lurked around this and other Bitcoin forums a couple years ago... this is nothing new and all of this basically has to happen for cohesion to develop... much of which will only occur after numerous 'shakeouts' of weaker hands. Granted it's different now with all the competition arising daily, but people are people no matter where you go.
