Topic: NXT Funding Committee Candidate Statements - page 2. (Read 10446 times)

I have had it with you salsacz. Your betrayal and manipulative bullshit is just beyond disgusting and in violation of the spirit of decentralization.
2 days ago you tried to start drama over a already settled issue regarding a succesful showmatch by bringing it up without any sort of actual information, just to try to start drama. I have informed people about your manipulative ways surrounding this. And mind you this was the day after you had repeatedly asked me to back you in a argument you got into on this forum. It was also just hours after I had asked you about some details regarding the reports that you acted so "puzzled" about eventhough we have had hours of discussions about it on Skype.

Now you go on and dig into my personal reddit account regarding the drama yesterday and try to portray that as "OMG THIS GUY IS OUT OF CONTROL". It is beyond obvious that you have a agenda, to get as much NXT as possible for yourself and try to paint yourself as some sort of worried NXTEr.
How I speak as a private person has nothing to do with NXT, I never represented myself as a "official NXTer" the very idea of that is incredibly dumb. NXT is 100% decentralized and what I say as a private person is 100% up to me. If it had been a official marketing gig then matters would've been different. And also you fail to mention that I was in fullright to ridicule that guy after having made up several lies and called me a scam artist etc.

A simple search on your youtube account shows that you do work for any coin that offers you a tiny amount of payment. You do this out of financial gain only, not because you have any ideological belief in NXT.  Proof: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJlCMt45lPx2J52yxtM-XNA

You are simply a dishonest, twofaced son of a bitch that I used to praise to the community, I vouched for you all the time and helped you get your position in this community and how do you repay me ? By acting like a fucking idiot.
This is baffling behaviour from a man who pretends to be "oh so nice".

If I choose only from 1 day old Uniqueorn's posts from Reddit and search only for words fuck and shit, I get this:

I don't want to waste much time on this, but we probably should discuss some etiquette, because many of us don't approve this behaviour and it simply dehonests our reputation

Hi guys, Arckam (aka frmelin), applying for the NXTtechdevfund committee

I’m impressed by the people proposing their help, they all have done so much already for the community.

A note about the committee I'm applying for : I initially declared I would like to be part of the marketing one. However, after reading the goals and the other participants' posts, I believe I can bring more value in the tech fund. Why? Because I'm not a pure tech guy :-)

I intend to make the community benefit from my presence on three axis :

• Helping to get us focused on doing the right projects
• Helping to get the projects we select done right
• Helping spreading the word around NXT.

I believe in mutual benefit between projects who needs funding and NXT community. It can be achieved only from sound and solid fundamentals. Things such as what does the project bring us? How does the financials look like? Are they sound? Is the team as strong as it should? Is it the right time for that project? How will the market we aim for react? How could we help that project being successful? I aim at bringing my 10 years professional experience in large & complex project elaboration, delivery, and evaluation to the community.

I also believe in stewardship. Some people have great ideas, others know the technical needed to get them done… and some others know how to organize things around all that. While I would love to be from the first type, I’m more from the third type. I’m first and foremost a catalyst. Someone able to help the dreamers achieve their vision. Someone who like to help the doers obtaining what they need to get the things done. I would like to be the guy oiling the wheels of the projects we selected.

Finally I intend to offer some of my time in promoting NXT as a (news / article / analysis) writer. I write for my pleasure initially. Providing written, quality, content on a regular basis would be my little extra.

I discovered NXT in early January. I came to it after having invested into Bitcoin because I felt Bitcoin was missing a little something. I couldn’t tell what, but I started looking at what else existed.  After having read about many alts, I bumped into NXT thanks to Superresistant (a French speaking community member) who gave some hints into NXT. Since then, I never stop believing it had a huge potential.

From a personal note, I'm 32, living in Brussels, heart of Europe. I’m a native French speaker and speak English, as well as some Dutch. I’m working as a manager in a large consulting firm, working primarily (but not only) in the Financial sector. Last but not least, I’m also the happy father of two sons, who keep hearing about my crazy dreams for the financial world they will live in tomorrow… :-)

Hope to talk to you all guys very soon !

Cheers!
Fr.

Again you are quoting out of context like a cuniving idiot.

Yeah, mintpal took pay to implement NXT on their exchange and then they said "NAH TOO COMPLICATED FUC KYOU" and didn't pay back. Of course that calls for public ridicule, it's about warning other people to not get their money stolen by fraudsters. Notice that I said *IF* they don't pay back.

As for the other guy: I aready adressed this, you can speak once you have dealt with people like this 500 times

Please get some manners if you will be elected.

good ideal !! hope nxt  to da moon!!

"... The Nxt community is the most compassionate group
that we have so far come across in the cryptocurrency world. We are eternally grateful to you John for spearheading this most amazing campaign. We will be delighted to bring Nxt in at the 5,000 sponsorship level and we will be giving you the full back page of our event program as well as top billing on our event web site at www.songsoflove.org/LA. Please provide us with the logo you would like to see displayed on our site and event program. I addition, I was so moved by your effort that I still want to come up with the Nxt theme song. I would like to work with you on the various elements you'd like included in the lyrics of the song. You can reach out to me for a discussion about this.


I will be back from LA on March 14 and can get on with creating the Nxt theme song at that time." - John Beltzer, Songs of Love

I apply for the NXTtechdevfund. I have been working on the Nxt code since Dec 25, 2013, and have taken it from a single java file to where it is now. I am much more comfortable writing code than managing projects, but I will certainly have an opinion about the directions in which the Nxt core should be developed, and so I should be involved in deciding what projects make sense to be funded, and estimating the efforts needed to complete a project given the current state of the Nxt core.

I apply for NXTinfrastructure too.  yea.

Hey guys, good luck to all. I am not applying, but i made this, and posted it on the main thread, but it might get lost, so i'll post it here aswell.
I believe it will help get more people involved with the vote quicker. i'll also post it on or reddit page, if you have tweeters & facebooks & all that social stuff, maybe pass it around?


Thanks for sharing, good luck to all nominees.
-Fo-

marketing,

I was working in promotion/press in the central department of the company, so I was also "leading" all local departments's promotion/press people

Some of my youtube videos have got millions of views.

Now I do this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4465984

My specialisation: videos, infographics, articles, conferences and in the future: universities, viral marketing

I am also applying for the NXTtechdevfund.

I'm an engineer with 12 years programming experience in developing web applications. I've also got extensive experience as a FreeBSD system administrator, having set up and currently managing dozens of servers.

I have developed and I'm currently hosting the (open source) Reddit NXT tipping bot. I have recently been "punished" with moderator privileges to the NXT subreddit (thanks guys  ). I have set up a few NXT public nodes, and will continue to do so.

I am also developing (along with a colleague) a new online NXT service that will be announced soon and will be the first of it's kind (the project will be irrelevant to this funding commitee, but I'm obliged to mention it here.)

I hope to share my experience to the rest of the NXT community, as well as learn from the more experienced ones. I love NXT, I believe it has huge potential and I'll say my piece whenever I think I have to add something insightful to a discussion.

I accept the nominations for Marketing fund and so I apply for that position.

I've been a part of NXT since early December 2013 and immediately became a active and involved member of the community. Due to this I was made global moderator over at Nextcoin.org and voted in as lead organizer for our first attempt at getting marketing going over there. But there was one problem: no funds for bounties.
But we did still get things going and the first infographics, videos, articles, logo, slogans, bitcoin conference etc. was organized and succesful.
Me and Nifty also started a volunteer questionaire where a lot of talented people applied for NXT projects, but again we were completley lacking any sort of funding and so we had to turn quite a few of them down. This time with a marketingfund I can see A LOT being done.

My reasoning for choosing NXT was simple. I took a look at the ongoing projects and only NXT stood out as interesting. All the others were simply copypasting Bitcoin and so I knew they would never become anything big. So I invested the little savings I had into NXT and dedicated myself fully to the coin. It's also one of the main reasons I started looking into cryptos. I'm not only here for personal gains (but a mans got to eat too!), but I love the revolution that is taking place. I felt that Bitcoin with the Bitcoin foundation sucking up to governments and big banks had lost it's rebellious way and it felt natural that NXT who took it to a whole new level was the place to get in early.


I also organize the NXT swarm group (30+ people) which already has got us on several exchanges.
Also eSports showmatch(es) that gained us thousands of viewers.
Also moderator on nextcoin, nxtcrypto and /r/nxt
Also communicating with different authors on different websites who will write articles about NXT
Also keep intouch with quite a few talented people who can help out with NXT in other ways
etc. etc.

I apply for NXTinfrastructure too.

1) NXTio Peer


2) NXTio public forging sharing automatic plataform (maybe to NXTmarketingfund)
http://www.nxtio.org/

I apply for NXTinfrastructure.

My qualifications:

• software engineer
• system architect
• degree in computer science
• TF evangelist
• stakeholder

My interests:

• math
• bouldering

I feel that I have a good grasp on what the NXT network needs in order to be considered "healthy", this I would apply for the infrastructure committee. I believe that the infrastructure fund will play an extremely important role until service providers see that they can earn profits off processing 1000+ TPS. Until then, it may be necessary to subsidize, or even fund projects that encourage forging.

As for my skills, I can do a little programming, deal with hardware, etc. as I have a background in electrical engineering, so if I don't know any of this stuff, I can pick it up provided I put in the effort. I also studied a bit of finance and management, so I have an idea of what needs to be done to provide an financial incentive for service providers to take on most of the network load.

EvilDave as candidate for the NXTinfrastructurefund.


Who the f*** is EvilDave:

I'm an ancient geezer, originally Anglo-Irish, but living in Amsterdam for the last 20 years.
Over the course of my chequered career I've:
trained as a lab technician/research scientist, worked in a whiskey bottling plant, barman, DJ'ed, washed dishes, co-ordinated free festivals, trained people to ride motorcycles, worked as courier on bikes/cars/vans, 1st and 2nd line helldesk, junior network admin, and a few others.
Should be a writer, that lot will look good on a book bio. I'm currently winding up one classic car related business and starting on a major restoration project, as well as diving head first into the crypto scene.

My computer skills are reasonable, if a bit out of date. Got a good spread of skills, not much depth. I am an all-rounder, with the emphasis on hardware and networking. And shouting at users.....working helldesk is not good for your view of humanity.

What have u ever done for NXT:

Much too much forum time, lots of blah about NXT and some troll hunting.
Some general NXT promo activities.
Lots of noisy support for NXT.

Set up and maintained VPS and private nodes

Helping out with Amsterdam Bitcoin Conference.

Made a proposal for a green, zero-emissions structure for NXT using carbon-offset credits.

Designed / printed some NXT promo stickers. (Some still available if ya want them !) Want to do more on the NXT merchandise front.

There might be a few other things, but thats all the important stuff.


What will you do as a NXTinfrastructurefund committee member ?

TBH, not very much. the role of the committee is (as i see it) to simply decide on the best use of our available funds and green-light (or red-light) projects that will help NXT.
This means that my role will be to listen to proposals from the NXT community, and make decisions based on the feedback from the community.
I'm not going to be try and force my personal agenda onto NXT, but I'll obviously be slightly biased towards plans that do fit with that agenda.

What agenda, Evil One?

My number one priority as NXT-ISF commitee dude,  is to make sure that one of the most basic elements of NXT, the network infrastructure, is the best that it can be. We need to have a solid base for further development and to make sure that NXT can be used reliably 24/7/52.

My personal ambition, very much in second place, for NXT would be to be able to take advantage of green marketing by making NXT as energy-efficient as possible, but I have to emphasise that if I need to choose between functionality or green-ness, I'll choose functionality without hesitation.


Thats the end.
 Vote for me. Or not...I'll not be offended if I don't get on.
