"It’s traditional for most people in China to go home to their families on Lunar New Year, which falls on Feb. 19 this year. China experiences a massive movement of people and gifts around the holiday, with an estimated 3.65 billion trips made during a 40-day period."

Has anyone experienced something similar in the early days of SPR? MrSpread up and leaving for a while?
I'M BUYING AGAIN!!!
I'm not. Definitely not.
There's something quite disturbing and unsettling about how people follow these devs with such adoration and fanaticism, and then when the dev does something that in any normal realm would have them be virtually struck off as unreliable and untrustworthy (i.e. a job, a business, a normal project being executed with real face-to-face people), everyone comes up with all sorts of accommodative excuses.
I'm sorry but I think we all need to face up to a harsh truth here. He was last online here on BCT on February 16, 2015, 09:07:09 AM and on SCT on February 15, 2015, 12:42:30 AM. That's over 5 days now.
Whether Mr Spread is off celebrating Chinese New Year or he's on a beach somewhere having a break, it's completely and utterly unacceptable to leave people hanging like this, especially given the crypto realm's history of hacks and scams.
I am so sick of taking an interest in things like this that end up being (yet again) massive disappointments. Honestly, it's just complete BS and that we're now all speculating as to what's happened is testament to how silly we've let things get in this online world where normal rules of decency and accountability have just been trampled on (good grief, try explaining this to someone not involved in crypto - it can't be justified. I need to get away from this ridiculousness).
Either Mr Spread has bailed or he's had some calamitous thing happen and he's in hospital unable to logon to these forums, he's being held somewhere against his will, he's had a family tragedy and is completely focussed on that as a far higher priority (which it is) or he's dead.
Even if he comes back now to tell us he was away at Chinese NY celebrations, how can anyone possibly expect SPR to be taken seriously?

anyone ?) the debates and discussions here are worthy to read, that is until Hippig and the rest came.
