it's not an altcoin. Clearly there is this block debate and many people want bigger blocks.
I want bigger blocks too. Too bad the core devs who are against an increase like gmaxwell
are forcing people who want bigger blocks to side with Hearn. What a mess.

We really gonna have to find a path of solution. This cant be good for bitcoin.
Could we do a vote base on quantity of bitcoin you own? With a signature ?
Or something to resolve this problem.
We cant fight together when bitcoin is not even yet mainstream.
Stop fighting start workign together. Finding the best solution!

I don't care about technicalities behind bitcoin XT and its being an alt coin. I care about censorship and deleting posts.
I feel if theymos or anyone from mod division think XT is not valid bitcoin fork anymore then ok I respect their opinion, it may be true.
Just move the XT discussion topics to altcoin section instead of deleting it. Or maybe create new forum section for these kind of threads.

The long, hot summer of 2015 has revealed something surprising about the Bitcoin community: many people have strange and technically unsupportable ideas about how the block chain algorithm actually works.
This has culminated in Michael Marquardt, who admins bitcoin.org and various discussion forums, banning all discussion of Bitcoin XT and threatening to delete services that use it from the official Bitcoin website. His rationale is that Bitcoin XT is an alt coin because it is intended to trigger a hard fork. On the other hand, “soft forks” are totally OK.
This position doesn’t make any technical sense, and in this article I will explain why not.
