That would be a very good idea
, make it easy to join.
I will complete a google doc form, it will be easier and more automatic
That would help. And what help more would be to make a brief guide of how to add a config file to the wallet since every time there's a problem one has to do over the whole thing. In this particular case, the wallet will open fine, without the config file after erasing the viorcoin file from the roaming folder, but, obviously, it doesn't sync. When a config file is created and added to the roaming folder, the wallet won't open and you get the windows splash that closes it. What is the problem?
This by the way happens every single time the laptop power goes off unexpectedly...
Thank you Barabbas for joining us @ slack. Glad we could help you and getting everything up and running like you wanted.
Don't hesitate to join slack if you get additional problems in the future, so we can help you quick and easy again.

Actually, the "help" -much appreciated- was in repeating steps that a lot of people has had to go through to recoup a corrupted blockchain that happens too frequently, in my case when the laptop loses power unexpectedly. It turns out that in my case I needed to actually perform a full system restore for it to actually work and I did it on my own after failed several attempts at the usual path of recovery of the blockchain. Otherwise, I just wanted to check SLACK out to see which new venue some of you had chosen to divert even more the interest in this project that needs to be concentrated here, in BTC Talk. I understand now that new social media outlet which, again, I believe it can be more of a negative than a positive for this project at this point -maybe it would be different if instead of half a dozen regular visitor this thread would have, thousands-. Anyway, that sorted out, since my laptop is not stable -quite old- I decided to stop staking altogether and now the coins are just waiting at the exchange.
As I suggested there, since this is a very, very frequent occurrence, a quick guide posted here could be as useful as the list of nodes on page 179 is and would eliminate the need for the "slack help" completely thus serving a much larger purpose.
I also suggested there and do now here that one or more guides are direly needed for this to even have a very remote chance of adoption. And NOT like the "guide" that was posted here a few days ago with the enormously annoying music background that was the perfect example of how NOT to do a guide in video, but something basic, very clear, with very specific and direct instructions and actually presenting a call made from download and install of the wallet to final completion of the call. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT will be a different guide presenting exactly the same plus the call being made and received from a cell phone. Like if it was being explained to a 4 year old AND, of course, including in the very beginning, along with the download and install of the wallet, how to get Viorcoin for free -I understand there's a giveaway somewhere set for that purpose- in order to make an initial call. I cannot stress enough how important this is if Viorcoin is to have even a remote chance of adoption at any level.Anyway, I said I would make this suggestion here and made it is. For the project to have any chance at all of any success, much more is needed and, sadly, there's no one with either the capability or the disposition to do it. So attracting those types of supporters is IMPERATIVE -someone with more than lint in their pockets, to make it clear- and that can only be achieved creating interest HERE, not on Slack, not of Viorcoin Forum, not anywhere else (Twitter will help too though, which apparently no one has chosen to take into consideration since activity there is almost non-existent).
