Hi guys. I got Mathgamain's msg, and just had to check in.
Well, then, we start over. The good news is, those who are thinking of adding to their stash of DRMs, price is really really friendly right now.
Pls continue the work being done -- by icecube for the multipool -- when it launches, it can only help the coin.
The website and github are down, but we already know nfox has the source code and anything else that's needed to rebuild a bigger, better coin, can be retrieved from explorer cache memory or built from the ground up, i think.
Anyway, I'm glad for the presence of Mathgamain, CS, Icecube, Nfox, and all dreamers out there. We just need to be more wary going forward. To some extent, maybe we mistreated Carsen, like we weren't coddling and praising enough. And, if he really did hav good intentions and we simply pushed him too hard and too often, pressing for progress reports and news and whatnot, then ok we should be big enough to admit that and apologize.
I giv him no excuses though, insofar as his move to delete and lock down what he had access to, coz it simply comes off as somthing of a tantrum move. The worst kind of tantrum -- one that costs people money.
So that's a lesson we learn, lets try not to leave our new DRM coin open to this kind of misbehavior.
Anyway I'm ranting, i'll let u guys get to work. To the active community who will help in rebuilding: it will be tough times ahead, but if you like that kind of challenge and the psychic and financial success that comes with it, u know you've got ur dream job right here.
Peace and prosperity u guys
(P.s. Dev group: of course, u will buy some DRMs before u release progress reports, that way u buy low and can sell high once the price reflects the good news you release. It's only fair -- u work ur butts off, after all.)
(P.p.s. Hope I can contribute more than mere words trying to rally the troops, but the wife and I are still expecting our new baby soon. 48 hrs is the countdown. Wish us well, u guys.)
(another p.s.: this one a disclosure: I'll hold my coins. Sure, I can keep fretting over the value of my DRM coins, and be cranky and an overall agitated bastard to everybody I interact with in the coming days coz I made a bad bet in the markets. But it's immature. It's little better than what Carsen did, lashing out by deleting what he could. In the grand scheme of things, our friends and family and community are more important, a few lost BTCs during this time is not worth the lasting damage to our relationships. Which is all the more reason I feel sad for Carsen. He could have handled this so much better and with more grace and maturity. Quoting MyFarm, Dev Carsen still needs a lot of maturing and coaching, and he may yet become a great dev someday. Thanks for creating a good coin, now I hope you can find the maturity to let us continue in peace the work that you started.)
