I see you moved your assumptions to Bitcointalk before replying at our official forum. That's fine, I will give some insight here aswell.
But how do you think guy's like Meije feel, who have invested way more hours than Malcolm so far on his GuldenCoin app and was completely ignored in his cryout for help from Rijk to get the costs for it funded.
Did you personally keep track of Meije's and Malcolm's invested hours? If so, how did you do that? Or did you make this statement out of perception?
It also seems you've missed this topic I started for Meije's GuldenCoinApp funding:
https://community.guldencoin.com/t/jaarlijkste-kosten-guldencoinapp/867Or what about Frais who has been totally ignored over and over with his offer to help put a good forum together, only to find a new forum shoved down the communities throats without any consultation?
As you are also aware, we've publicy discussed the fact that we did make a mistake here by not discussing the implementation of the new forum with the community first. After that we've started a poll to let people vote for the forum. Even you voted for the new forum, together with the majority, so what more would you like us to do about this subject?
Or what about CoinFreak who was on a roll getting a radio campaign funded, only to see he needed to sort it out himself, no help again, just ignored.
You are also aware that CoinFreak proposed his plan to the community at our official forum, we have a special section for that called "Community Projects Funding". The majority decided against funding of the project. But maybe that was because of a misunderstanding from CoinFreak's side about C.P.F. The way it works is that you present your project and ask for funding, not that you present your project and expect other people to do it for you.
Roel had Nocks funded with 1 million within 4 hours after the CPF saw daylight. Not that I think Nocks shouldn't have been funded, but I do see a pattern where the inner circle is getting their way, while the rest of the community gets ignored over and over again!
Roel is a perfect example of how C.P.F. works. He proposed his plan, asked for funding, community decided and he received it. After that he went to work and finished it.
But here we are, three dev's getting 1mm
Again you are aware, that I only proposed this publicy to the community at the CPF section. I explained why and let the community decide. Nothing has been given.
If Rijk would have consulted me on this
Well I did didn't I? Is there a specific reason that I should only ask you about this? Because I think the right path is asking the entire community, which you are a part of.
Advised against proposing this to the community
I thought you were the one who is against backchannels and behind the scenes decisions. Nobody is stopping you from paying for development or giving out other rewards.
It causes trouble in a community if you rule by diversion
What causes trouble is people ruling a decentralized project. I am not ruling or leading anything: it's decentralized. Everyone can decide for themselves if and how they help Guldencoin. If people need help or funding, we have a perfect place where they can ask for it. And we have lots of members who can help.
Thats why I will not accept that the lousy way this dev team tends to communicate does more harm to this community that it has already done!
What really does harm to the community, is you making such trouble about a simple question. I only proposed that we reward the three developers for their hard work. What you did is making the assumption that I proposed that because our developers asked for money. They have never asked for money or rewards. I asked. I asked the community, publicly. And you could have simply said: No.
