Besides PoI and the relatively good distribution, what else makes NEM stand out? I need a better understanding to defend against naysayers.

A list in easy to understand format would be very helpful.

Im sorry, but, certainly I'll not remember some or one post from march.

Probably most of us here will not remember. I dont remember what I eat at Friday  .

If your idea is really good, just dont give up. Tell it more than one time.

 

...
maybe your post proves all this.
You just took one post and made your conclusions. And the result is wrong. (Maybe the same has happened with many issues)
If you would have read my earlier posts couple pages ago, you could have noticed that I wrote about these things as early as in March.
It is difficult to be happy with these circumstances.

all im saying is that "how bad" these issues are, is all relative. if the alpha was broken entirely.. you wouldnt give two hoots about the forum or a delay in stakes.

think of it this way.. two people, one wealthy, food always on the table nothing ever goes wrong for him, never had a worry in the world growing up etc spoilt rotten basically.. the other was dragged up, bad parents, hardly ever food in the house and has to fight for everything in life and generally has a shit life.. one day they both find out that they cant go to somewhere they want to go for what ever reason.. the rich one kicks up holy hell how ever the broke one, down on luck one brushes it off and forgets about it pretty much straight away.. why? cos the problem they face is entirely relative to everything thing else going on at the time. to the rich guy its a huge problem, cos relative to the very few problems he has its a big big problem and seems bigger to him cos nothing bad ever happens to him. where as the down on luck guy.. well hes used to bad shit happening.. not being able to go somewhere he wants to go is inconsequential when he doesnt no where his food is guna come from in 2 days, so relative to his problems, its nothing.

my point is, the same problem can be ether a huge problem or a small one, it all depends on what reference point you look at the problem from. do you look at it from the rich guys angle cos you havnt got any other problems(thats nem right now) or do you look at it from the poor guys angle?(thats the likes of exo having major technical problems). its all relative, and if you can flex your neck and look at it from the other guys perspective.. we got it real good.

if we have some major major problem with the tech and it starts looking like nem wont launch... then we will be looking at it from the poor guys perspective and everyone will then see how good we really had it and how small of an issue not being able to vote or a delay in stake issuance really is. its all relative. its all perspective.

if the devs didnt agree to put nem on the AE. you wouldnt have an AE stake to claim.. nemsters are spoilt rotten in my opinion(no offence intended, you cant blame the child for being spoilt). haha

No.  Bitcoin itself is only used by a million people around the world.  Getting people to use crypto currencies is an education campaign and a simple brochure (even with measly freebies attached - which I don't like) would have a very low effectiveness rate.

I've seen the marketing strategies used by Litecoin and Dogecoin.  Back in 2013 they were spamming on large internet forums like Bodybuilding but it wasn't an education campaign "why you should use cryptos" but more like "hear about dat Bitcoin chyieet?  Well throw money at Litecoin and make $$$$"

However unethical it was for LTC / Doge people to pass off their coin as a money flipping opportunity, I don't think anyone on their forum ever writes: "hey guys, remember in 2013 when you were passing off money flipping opportunities to random people on the internet?".

 That method they used was effective in the sense that Doge was able to hit $60 million and LTC is still the Prince to BTC and I was around (albeit not registered on BTT at the time) to see its' raise.  Ironically it was those LTC money flipping threads on websites like Bodybuilding that made me lurk on Bitcointalk.

Litecoin is used in Bitfinex as a financial instrument. Very big advantage. There is always a possibility that Litecoin being included in Coinbase thanks to Charlie's connection.

There should be a handout created for NEM targeted for people completely new to digital currencies. It should be brochure like, easy for anyone to print out. Make it as simple as possible, explain the idea of digital currencies as a whole and then what approach NEM is taking. People involved in the swarm team could print these off and post them locally on bulletins or hand them out by hand on streets, campuses, local events.

Going further, we could put a message inside some of the brochure offering free X amount of NEM (we could include what market value this would be in $) for anyone potentially interested in getting involved with the project. We could make the brochures unique by serial numbers and have them redeem them after creating an account on the Nem forums.

Does this seem like a realistic marketing idea?

Hi lexicon,

This was the last update from Pat on the matter:


To speed up the solution I am now discussing a quicker way for the assets with Pat - just waiting for him to come online again and respond to my PM.

Will hopefully update on that later.

As for the forum, the issue should be solved for now.

We will however be implementing a more stable solution tomorrow.

If any other forum problems should arise please post here or PM me with the info.

Thanks.

Well,

It's sunday at 7pm

Let's keep our promise and get these tokens sent out today.

I can't think of a more positive thing to happen than to keep that promise and get this behind us.

More than 10 people have commented and supported me in my plan to get this back underway. It makes us look bad that a scam has held us back this long. Let's get this checked off the list.

Today is the day. So let's deliever!!!

BIG POSITIVE STEP

Also, is the Nem Forum fixed? Is everybody able to vote now without using TOR?

Can we make that announcement?

Getting problems fixed in a timely manner is VERY, VERY important to the value of a coin!!!

IT WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE TO REQUEST TOKENS VIA PM. TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR EVERYONE TO LOOK AT REQUESTS AND THEREFORE HAVE THE PUBLIC AUDIT THE REQUESTS AS WELL WE WILL HAVE A DEDICATED THREAD FOR REQUESTS. THIS IS ANOTHER MEASSURE AGAINST SCAMS!

WE'LL CREATE THE THREAD WHEN I HAVE DISCUSSED THE DETAILES WITH XTESTER.

Sorry for the confusion but I wasn't around when the decision to issue again was made so I'll have to catch up with the team first.

you make it sound like these are catastrophic failures, when in reality they are minor issues.. take exo for example.. if they're only issues were the ones we are facing.. they would be delighted. its all relative.. these issues seem much bigger than they are.. cos we dont have any major issues.. if the alpha wasnt functioning properly or not at all.. would you give a crap about a delay of nem stake issuance.. look at these issues from the right persective and they arent issues at all...

You have no idea what I am doing with my stake, I'm not going to get into the details, but you can be rest assured that I will have at least 5 to 10 stakes before V1 hits!!

I trade and mine for a living. That's all I do. I live on a lake. Do the math. Don't sell your stake if you want to make money.

The great thing about NEM, is it's one of those coins that are more than a coin. It's more than money at stake here possibly.

It has a very lofty goal. Change the world, yes. If it's going to do this, many things have to get ironed out, yes.

That's why I'm saying some things now. We are in pre-launch. Trust me the NEM team will reach a point were they are operating like a well oiled machine. I plan to help with that myself. Yes, things are a little chaotic right now, but many things are going on, and they are still a relatively new team. We are still PRE-LAUNCH.

I am critical of the NEM team because it is in my best interest, and the best interest of NEM, for things to be fixed if there is a problem.

Those people that just come here and say "NEM to MOON" and can't say a bad word about anything aren't helping the situation. People like you are. Stick with us, make sure we get these things fixed.

like I said,

TRUST ME

Good idea Kod.

In the meantime I am also discussing a quicker solution for the assets with Pat.
