So I guess Uniqueorn put me on ignore... Guess he doesn't want another person helping with Swarming just because I don't agree with him on GW. An issue that has very little to do with Nxt. He insulted me numerous times, and I didn't even insult him once.

I'd sure trust this guy to be in management like positions in my company *sarcasm*

Omg you're such a fucking baby. Infact we have 31 swarmers at this point, the goal and funding only reaches for 30.
So if we're going to add more SWARMers I'll first have to ask the funder of this project.

I would never let a idiot interfere with my professionalism in terms of finding a job. But eventhough swarming is pretty straight forward, I do have to keep in mind what sort of people are on my SWARMing team.

Like I said: I am already in talks with authors about climate change + NXT and this will be articles we will organize SWARMings for. We can't then ahve a guy like you shouting at the author.

That went well.....not!  Huh
I'm now going to re-post the carbon-offset proposal with all of the GW-related material censored, which was only about 10% of my original post.

I think you should scratch your carbon offsets in favor of something less controversial. A proposal for subsidies to provide free abortions to the less fortunate? It will probably be less divisive.  Cheesy

Imagine the marketing opportunity if we had abortion clinics that accepted Nxt as payment.  Grin

That sounds like a laugh, but no.

Heres an idea....someone else come up with a marketing project that can have as much of an impact in terms of free publicity (if handled right) as mine and I'll listen. Might even read it.....

Speaking of upcoming conference in Austin, since I live here I can order t-shirts for attendants and meet them before the conference. Do we have a list of people who are going to Austin so I can contact them to have their sizes? I can also print other stuff like business cards, flyers etc.

I want to get both business cards and flyers printed for Austin but I wanted to see what got made for Berlin first.  I am really interested in a black NXT T shirt but if I'm speaking I may wear something a little more formal.  I have posted my hotel and flight info in previous posts and would love to have a meet up with you and anybody else that comes on Tues night before the conference.  

My buddy Leon Fu and I will be there also and can definitely meetup.  I'm currently working on a sales/marketing presentation that will benefit everyone at the conference and not just nxt since I'm not qualified to speak about the technical aspects of nxt.  If I get approved to speak, i will let everyone know.  I was able to get my colleague to speak at the San Jose Conference so I don't see it being a challenge to get on stage.

Image is everything so we plan on dressing "formal" as well and NOT show up in a t-shirt and hoody.

You guys know it's $300+ to get in the door, right?

If we accomplish what we set out to do (promote nxt) then the $300 ticket will not be an issue when we're done at the event... :-)

You were able to track down the thieves with your MIT background and I'm confident you will do your part to promote nxt at the Texas Bitcoin Conference so we're not worried. :-)

But if we can truly say that NXT is cleaner than a Priuses arse, that NXT is being used to do good things like planting trees, making our air cleaner and helping out poor people, then we will have the entire "green" world rushing to our door, waving dollar bills.
How many people bought Priuses last year ?

We need the mainstream and green marketing is a very powerful tool to get to them.
 

Half people say that we need to bury mentions of GW because it turns people off. The other half want to shout from the rooftops that we are carbon free because it's a marketing gimmick.
NXT is already using low power consumption as a selling point, carbon-offset just takes this USP further. We can be greenish without getting into GW

Evil Dave you sound like every other do gooder central planner I've had to listen to throughout my life...that if we just give them free money they will remake the world in their image. You also claim a moral superiority because you want to plant trees and make a big show of helping poor people.
What moral superiority? Come on, mate. Never made any such claim, won't make any such claim.
It's not a show, clean stoves will help the 2-3 billion poor sods who cook on crap-burning stoves. Costs very little, too


What intrinsically makes planting a tree so valuable? If you have to cut down a forest to make room for low-cost housing for the poor, that you purport to care about, then who wins? What's more important? The poor people or the trees?
Not cutting down forest for housing, not part of my idea.
On poor people or trees: both could win, btw, some people, mostly women, get to spend several hours a day gathering firewood/dung/whatever to burn. Efficient stoves mean they need less fuel gathering time, for a start. More trees, easier to find fuel.


As far as carbon offsets...there's a reason hydroponics shops sell tanks of compressed carbon dioxide...it's because carbon dioxide is plant food. It helps trees grow.
Thats why i'm not banging on about CO2 levels, but about the other positive aspects of a good carbon-offset program

Suppose we cut carbon emissions, and this lead to lower agricultural outputs and an increase in starvation and famine? How would you feel if poor people starved because of your carbon offsets?
We have enough atmospheric CO2, and again, it's not all about the CO2.

You are trying to push your muddled, politically correct, views onto Nxt because you see a pile of free money sitting there for the taking.
I'm pushing a powerful marketing opportunity. The free money ain't going in my pocket, but if NXT can go mainstream and at least take LiteCoins position, I will make some serious cash.

Keep politics out of Nxt. It will only divide people. Nxt does a far better job than other cryptos and costs less in resources to do it. This is a powerful message. We don't need your carbon dioxide boogie men and the attendant politics to make that point.
This is not a political issue.......I think.

And yes, I did read your proposal. Aside from you being mealy-mouthed about global warming specifically, you conclude the same thing as all other environmentalist control freaks...that we should feel guilty about using energy and we have to make some sort of amends for the crime of being born human.
Guilty, crime....sorry, but u've lost me. Show me a quote.

I cant believe that u got all that out of my post.
Italics are mine, btw.

NXT MAINSTREAM ADOPTION STRATEGY

Steps:

1) Push Anonymous Messaging ONLY on WORLD CLASS DESIGNED ANDROID/IPHONE APPS (OUR FLAGSHIP APPS).

2) Make these APPS available on Google Play/App Store.


3) USE the current market situation to our advantage AS NO ONE IS NOW SURE ABOUT USING THERE MOBILE FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION....The NSA sent us a blessing in disguise....AN UNTAPPED MARKET.

4) Once Nxt Messaging has gained a strong following 100,000 - 500,000 downloads we start to Unlock/roll out other features of NXT ....ie. auction/storage/payment/Asset exchange/marketplace etc....thru regular updates once users start using the messaging app they become lock into the larger NXT ecosystem.


5) My real world examples are LINE & WECHAT....both started as msg apps but NOW OFFER IN APP PAYMENTS.


Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xioami sold 100,000 smartphones inside the WECHAT messaging app last month.


The above is a Strategy for gaining MAINSTREAM ADOPTION which will give us payment possibilities without the need to push payment as our main selling point....this is be a unique approach for a crypto currency.

BUMP

and WeChat is owned by Tencent, MAJOR allies with the Communist Party of China. I'm not against Communism as whole, but the Party is against freedom in China

That's the problem with this censorship "let's piss on principles" atmosphere on this forum.
Should he and I just dillute our work on this to "NXT spends less electricity, but it doesn't really matter, but let's plant trees anyway" ? That isn't effective.

In these matters one should use common sense.

Don't start on GW or we will just get completely de-railed

Pollution, air quality, forests, oxygen, poor people and marketing. Thats what I want to concentrate on....

How the hell did a nxt development thread turn into a global warming thread? lol

Focus gentleman... there is pressing work at hand....

Also, in other news, BCNext has been captured by doctorevil (the guy who cracked genesis):


                                                                   BCNext: Do you expect me to talk?
doctorevil: No BCNext I expect you to die!


If you LADIES don't get your asses moving and work as one to bust him out of there (and beef up account security while we're at it), BCNext is gonna be cut in half by a FRICKIN LAZER! That would NOT be a happy ending to the story of Nxt.

So sign up on diaspora and join the assault team!


EDIT: James, why did you have to quote that humongous post just then and ruin the continuity?  Undecided

Now let's not talk more about science.

Or at least until the next time.

We'll need to discuss voting system, too high fees with no decimals and unclaimed coins first. Then back to GW  Smiley

Yeah, I like how the guy that just "can't let this one go", is then the one to say let's not talk about it anymore HAHA!

ATTENTION ALL NXTERS!

Aren't you overwhelmed by this o(n log n) thread? 1458 pages making you see stars instead of the Moon? Keep missing out on what's going on?

Fret no more! Nxt is now on diaspora*, the (semi-)decentralized social network. It's like Facebook and Twitter rolled into one, right in your browser. But without the spam (if you filter well).



We can use it for announcements that link to forum thread discussions. Quickly keep up-to-date with the general going-ons without having to read everything in detail or scroll through long posts across multiple forums. Simply follow the hashtags that you're interested in. #nxt for everything, or something more specific like #nxtmarketing or #globalwarming if that's just what you want to focus on.

You can @mention people to get their attention. Posts update in real time so you can also use it as a chat room.

Worried about anonymity? Run it through Tor. (But do consider using an e-mail account created just for it). Javascript is required.

So what are you waiting for? Learn more about how slick it is, and sign up! Then follow me ([email protected]) or #nxt.

Be sure to choose a pod (the server that hosts your posts and stuff, that's the centralized part) that's NOT in the US or UK, or some other country with Spais. Regardless of which one you choose, every diaspora account can interact with every other account. (that's the decentralized part).


(Disclosure: I don't work for the Diaspora foundation, I only discovered diaspora recently.)

Hi there,
I'm thinking about long term investent in NXT and have kind a technical question. Will the transaction fee always be 1NXT? Are we gonna have decimals? Asking because I'm afraid that if NXT price would be about for example 5$ and somebody wants to make a payment of 10$, the fee would be way to high.

Fees will be lowered. We are we gonna have decimals.

By the way Uniqueorn, I want to thank you for all the hard work you are doing for the Nxt community. Keep up the good work. I also wouldn't mind joining the Swarm group.  Wink
