Dude, You have your own ENTIRE FORUMS, go post that the new client is out ver there, Not in multiple threads within Alt Cur. on the bitcoinforums

You do know SolidCoin is the second biggest cryptochain, the biggest "alt chain" . It certainly deserves mention on this segment of the forum given that.

I've released v2.041 which fixes a crash bug in the Linux daemon, also updated the license.txt so that the criticisms shown from some supporters here can disappear.

http://solidcointalk.org/topic/532-solidcoin-v2041-released/

Thanks again for your support.

Any publicity is good publicity. No matter how you skin this cat if you use the men with guns to try to take someone actual property irl because of something that is insubstantial and doesnt actually affect the original item its obscene.

If they ban it someone will just sell sc on Silk Road.

SolidCoin-because its like crack.

It's just funny how ironic the whole situation is with some of these people supporting draconian laws to try to censor a free project they don't like. Isn't the Bitcoin ethos against this? Or am I in the wrong place?

"Dude you didn't put a text file exactly the way I like!!! OMFG I'm going to DMCA you!! Yeah that will teach you!!"

Bitcoin can have supporters like this, we only want people against these types of institutions working with and investing in SolidCoin at the moment.



That is the price you have to pay (in this specific instance) to use other peoples code. If you don't want to pay their price, don't use their code. They are not making you pay money, or give them royalties or ownership. They are just asking you not to take credit for their work.

Just do the whole wide world a favor and shut the fuck up. You and your short bus full of simple minded ponzi-schemers continue to amaze and amuse with how dogged your pursuit of stupidity is. You were cuaght out in your lies and illegal acts, AGAIN, and no amount of brain dead hot air is going to change that.

It's not just the copyright law itself.
He got the code for free.
People spent a lot of time and effort writing it, and all they asked in return is to copy paste 10-20 lines.
How hard can it be? Even now, instead of arguing about it he could just add that to his license and be done with it.
Not doing that is just being an ungrateful asshole.

I'm confused, does us copyright law cover the entire planet?

This place isnt the place for illegal activity? what do you think it is when someone moves more than 10k via bitcoin?
oh wait there I go assuming US law is world wide.

I do find it interesting the die hard freedom folks like to ban people whom they disagree with.

shouldnt yall be able to counter solidcoin publicly without going to this centrally managed method of crying to the kings?

The whole solidcoin hate, and DMCA notices is just lame as hell, sure seems antithesis to the ideas behind the community.

What do you lose by having it your way vs having it the way it is now?
Why do you continue to refuse to comply with the license? It clearly states:

Quote
The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
The MIT license is one of the simpliest, clearest, and easiest licenses to comply with, and yet you refuse to comply. Why?

Furthermore, in the binary distribution, http://solidcoin.info/downloads/solidcoin-204-linux64.tar.bz2, not only is the MIT license not included, but even the Bitcoin copyright notice has been completely removed. Again, you are violating the license.

it makes it less clear that the code it free for all and does not belong to you like the rest of it - which you allow to be used only for solid coin
and i think it is on purpose
nobody is going to sue you, but it is bad manners. you got the bitcoin code for free, just do what they ask. is it so hard to copy paste it?

Our code does not belong to the world with no conditions. Unlike Bitcoin we put disclaimers in there to protect us legally from malicious activity. If people want to use SolidCoin code for "Good" then there is no problem, they don't even need to release the source. A malicious Bitcoin developer could release something that attacks the network and the Bitcoin developers could do absolutely nothing to remove it. If someone writes a virus for Windows on the other hand Microsoft slap the turkey on them.

In regards to your continued ridiculous claims about MIT, it is obvious as day to anyone that reads the license.txt that there is Bitcoin code used and it is licensed under MIT and copyrighted by them. Perhaps your bad manners is subjective? Perhaps another person believes its bad manners to criticize Bitcoin because some of your code is still using it. Maybe others believe it is bad manners to criticize Bitcoin at all. Some others in a dark region think it's even bad manners to use Bitcoin code at all! What you "feel" and "think" isn't necessarily reality and the quicker you realize this the better off you'll be. Satoshi, unlike the current developers, released his code under MIT because he realized Bitcoin would be overtaken by ... and a real fork like SolidCoin would be needed.

Dude. The fucking law says that "The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in
all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

you do NOT include the text
the word "include" Is not fucking "loose" atall, Here, i'll pull up a dictionary Just For You
Heres the Oxford definition, Tell me where you see the word Include, Being "loose"

Code:
1comprise or contain as part of a whole: the price includes dinner, bed, and breakfast other changes included the abolition of the death penalty

 
2make part of a whole or set: we have included some hints for beginners in this section

 
allow (someone) to share in an activity or privilege: there were doubts as to whether she was included in the invitation
Source:http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/include?q=include

By not adding the text, You break the law, And therefore, Are fully eligible for a DMCA takedown

I violated the MIT license, but still can't admit I did it. I just keep changing the story and hope people forget the earlier versions.

Thank you Coinhunter, that was an excellent summation.

To the mods: can we get a scammer label on these guys? I would hate for someone new to cryptocurrencies to take what the Solidcoin folks say at face value.
