From what I've read so far on both forums this looks like an excellent coin. I'll give two pieces of criticism though.
1) The nonsense about "1 person for graphics, 1 person for website, 1 person for twitter" makes it sound like the dev is kid trying to bluff their way into success. Some people might be polite but I doubt the "team" is more than one person. One dev is fine but bullshitting like that is a put off.
2) A moderated thread? If you are not able to answer critics honestly then use a self moderated thread. Are you not able to answer critics honestly?
As I said, this coin has huge potential, it is innovative and feature rich and the dev seems to be quick and ambitious. For me, deciding whether, and how much, to put into this coin the two issues above should be addressed squarely with no whiny bs about "too much fud" or whatever.
Not trying to speak on behalf of the devs, but if you look at the old thread (or even this new thread), both the devs and community members did try to answer the serious questions and address legitimate concerns. Posts like "this is scam!" or "get out now before the devs dump on you!" were not answered for obvious reasons. The FUD/trolling really just got to the point where it was overwhelming and cluttered up the entire thread, making it very hard to find useful information. Also, don't know if you noticed but it wasn't solely the devs that decided to have a moderated thread, it was actually a community vote. They specifically asked the community if we all wanted a moderated thread and we all said yes. Hope that somewhat answers your 2nd concern
As for your first concern, I can't speak too much about that as I'm not a part of the dev team, but if you read Dan Metcalf's (XC Developer) review of Keycoin, he did mention that he saw 20+ members on the team (or at least people temporarily working on Keycoin) when they invited him into a private IRC. So I guess take that for what it's worth.
I think the reality is that there were a lot of people at the start who had small contributions to the project and the numbers have decreased since. I don't doubt that there are at least a few dedicated members on the team who are still contributing up to this point.
Even with all the FUD/trolling attacks and the price continually decreasing over the past month, the devs are still updating (although not daily, but still more often than many coins out there) and releasing features. I seriously don't know what more do people want.
