35% think it is bad, so yeah not majority LOL try and look at the facts when they are infront of your face.
Add up multiple categories. The people who are not absolutely opposed, in other words generally support, outnumber those who oppose. Are you cherry-picking the "temporary fix" folks onto your side or something? The wording of that choice obviously means it is acceptable to them as it stands.
I'm curious if you have a response to "I only see a couple of very loud voces speaking against this change, and none of them have demonstrated the slightest understanding of it." I agree wholeheartedly. If you have an objection based on an understanding, please let it be known. All I've seen is your claim that small transactions are not hurting the network and that developers are greedy (WTF? what do they have to gain from this?)
Gavin says the point of the pull request is "to discourage people from bloating users' wallets and the UTXO set with tiny outputs." In other words, small transactions are harmful. Do you have an explanation for why this assessment is incorrect, or do you just inherently distrust Gavin because he's one of the "fat cats" at the top, conspiring to drive Bitcoin into the ground?
First off I only care about that "It's a bad idea 57 (35.4%)" it is the majority I don't care about the rest. So you add them six ways to sunday, and skew the results how you want but that is the majority.
Second no cause I actually understand completely what they are doing, and I never said the developers were greedy, I said Gavin was greedy. They are censoring bitcoin, if I want to send 0.00000001 regardless of fees or whatever, I should be able too. Also they are doing this out of a vendetta against satoshi dice which any business is killed by censorship is completely against what bitcoin is. I made this clearly in about 2 different threads.
Third, if you don't have the Hard disk to run a full node maybe you shouldn't? there are other options. So that doesn't harm bitcoin, it harms people who aren't update with there computers. It is really a fix for something the developers should be working on, instead of putting a temp patch on.
