Terminated.
Well I do agree that almost all the altcoins are crap, however there is no need to rush. If an altcoin had some feature that was worth spending implementing into Bitcoin, don't you think hat someone would have at least proposed it?
There are indeed some unique stuff that was copied over and over by others (e.g. Kimoto's Gravity Well). These things aren't necessary at the time.
There is no need to increase the blocksize right now, because there is enough room for transactions. Better take it slowly, than to be sorry later.

I value a conservative approach, but if Bitcoin is really open source then what's stopping us from hard forking

Nothing. You are free to do your own fork.
The hard part is gaining consensus.

Does it really take months of work to make Bitcoin 100% anonymous?

7 Transactions a second, another issue that shouldn't be an issue.  It's simply not enough for the future.  Why wait until 2016 for a hard fork?

Let's hard fork this shit and send these make-believe pretend shitcoins to their graves where they belong.  Altcoins are a cancer.

Does anyone else see the irony in this?
The guy wants to borrow features invented on other alt-coins and hard fork them in Bitcoin to destroy all alt-coins.   Roll Eyes

Neuroticfish said to me before that bitcoin has a fork-o-phobia. Most people are afraid of forking because the result after fork is undetermined. Bitcoin may be worthless like altcoin and thats whats make people worried about especially about the price since it might crash after fork.  Btw 7 transactions a second is a bit crazy, most altcoins is 1 minute/1 blocks usually

this would better be done with sidechain, so you don't touch the original blockchain and you don't need any hard fork, they are a good idea imho, for removing that altcoin garbage

First, how many people in your term of "us"? this is the real problem. We already have lots of clone of bitcoin, but none of them success as bitcoin, just because of people don't support it.
