why do you call it Arbitrary messages?

BCNext called it Arbitrary Messages coz format of this messages is not defined. They contain raw hex numbers and it's up to an application how to interpret them.

This is all so exciting. The more I ask questions and get answers, the more I see the bigger picture. Can't wait to have most important features implemented and with a nice GUI.

PS: registered a few more aliases today, turns out quite a few good ones are still left for grabbing.

So, when will Voting be implemented, after which block?
What is the plan for the next 2-3 features, which blocks are they introduced at?
Just to be ready, you know Smiley

I haven't seen Voting System code yet. We have Transparent Forging ready and now I'm digging thru Arbitrary Messages. Jean-Luc is reviewing version with TF. We'll know what block TF is activated on only after he completes this work.

Why implement that kind power in first place?! I don't get it. As I see, it's really dangerous. What about "+"s? Not so much. We can create a poll in forum.

I like it. Let's use Voting System (just voting) to ask if we need this. And implement the rest only if we get 51%.
Strongly agree. First (and may be last) voting poll:

Should we turn this potential system of control off forever?

Only after that feature will be or gone, or fully opened.

I Love it!

Interesting. When I mentioned my concerns about this kind of voting system a few days ago, nobody seemed to care...
I may be missed that in 500+ topic.

Maybe we don't need any other kind of protection. It's up to us if we use this power.
I don't wanna rely on them. And I now for sure, that w/o built-in system, manipulation become times harder for that one who can potentially manipulate 51%+. So why we need Voting System at all?

So, I'd say, no need for such a weapon.
Agree. We or will be protected by math or won't be protected at all (any amount of minds can be manipulated, history shows us, how, even great ones).

If 51% of stakeholders think the same, u shouldn't worry.

yeah, why destroy? freeze them and wait for the owner to present evidence he's innocent as a lamb or not or allow investigation of his node, or whatever, no need to destroy coins. And even freezing is too dictatorial. Banks do the same.

That's a dilemma - Should I keep a powerful weapon that can protect me, but can kill me.

Well, it's not about 'me', it's about 'us'.
One can fully trust himself, but can't fully trust the others.
So, I'd say, no need for such a weapon.

Maybe to defend the system? If 51% of stakeholders want to block someone's account they can do it anyway.
What can do 49%- (90%-) acc to system, exactly?

No, they can not. At least not that simple. A leader'd find all of them and convince them to lead.

Who's "me"? Nxt system? It'll be proected with TF against even 90% of NXTs, right? So why we need any other kind of protection (more, based not on math)?

I saw Voting System more like public signed polls. There're some tools of control of others accs planning with it? For what purpose?

Can't agree more. Need more info.
