I've been watching Syscoin from the very beginning (although I didn't invest in the IPO).
I have to say that most of you guys are impatient, quick to judge idiots. People here witnessed only hundreds of identical launches of Bitcoin/Litecoin clones, where devs were only capable of adding 10 lines of code and changing a few variables. SysCoin is one of the first altcoins with a completely new set of features on top of the basic Litecoin code (I mean seriously, even the mining part has been improved). Do you guys realise how complicated is it to even make a coin merge-mineable with everything else? I didn't expect the launch to be smooth, a big software project always will contain a handful of bugs.
But what's wrong with this world is you, people who're constantly trolling here. You didn't even bother to read the [ANN] or check the Syscoin website. Most of you have no idea who's on the dev team (while all info was on the website for weeks). You can't even do simple math. I've seen countless kids in every thread here, the behaviour pattern is 100% the same. What a bunch of clinical idiots this forum became I don't think you have any idea what's happened here - people who actually did buy this coin (not guys like you who are parachuting in from a high horse with no stake in the issue whatsoever) were misled about the capability of this team and the quality of the work. The weekend-long ordeal of this untested, haphazard launch was far below minimum standards for *any* coin launch. It is one of the worst I've ever seen. People had a right to expect a lot more out of a 1500BTC project. At the very least, this team massively overpromised what they could deliver and misrepresented their capabilities.
They're STILL overpromising: They promised to band aid the wallet within a day, and people are *STILL* reporting problems on this very page. A solid wallet was supposed to be released on the 16th, Saturday. It's Monday, with no end in sight. And no confidence that even when a fix is announced that there wont be other, potentially more serious, hidden problems.
I was mostly referring to random shit like "scambust" or "sainf" are writing. Problem are expected in a launch of any coin of this complexity. Bitcointalk is a known cesspit of the crypto community, so I didn't expect anything but exaggeration and whining kids.
P.S.
Just downloaded the wallet and put this in the .conf file:
addnode=76.25.201.234:8369
addnode=67.253.247.113:8369
addnode=node.syscoin.me:6369
Everything is working so far, I'm on the correct fork. If people can't even copy/paste the right lines, what would you expect from them?
