I'm a NXTer too, although I'm clubbing around here when I should be buckling down with the Java. The distro never bothered me because I started lurking here after the IPCO ended. NXT is a great technical experiment that will likely be the backbone of P2P asset exchanges.
What got me into Community Coin? It's a social experiment. Can a coin that's distributed widely, and for free, take off? I think it will, so I'm pitching in at the subreddit. Not much action there a/o yet, but the coin isn't fully distributed yet and it's still very early in the game.
