my 2 FCKs
i'm not going to repeat myself yet again about the various things that are being worked on, because its apparent that the whiners don't even fcking read the forum posts and would rather just bitch and moan rather than actually support something
then don't
don't waste your time talking to idiots, you know the saying, they will drag you to their level and beat you with experience
if you care about seeing whats being worked on, feel free to view lom's or my posts, or even just read the last few pages on this topic
if you just care about bitching and moaning? fck off
on the other hand pepsi/nike generation loves to "just do it", they need instant reward, and appeasing them is unfortunately part of your job (would be nice to have (at least semi-)professional marketer to do this).
How about doing some incremental releases to let people see the "progress"? (and I put "progress" in quotes not to offend but to incur that this is just a cosmetic change for developer but might be something fun for the bored ones.) Even a wallet with new logo would be a small nice step, or how about changing "send/receive" menus to "give a fck / get a fck" ?
and hell yeah, cheap fcks for those who want them (I bought more than I mined, and I mined a lot)
Also for those needing to pay their bills. While I feel sorry for you, here is the lesson: never invest what you cannot afford to loose (and that includes time which is money, or rather asset). Or accept the risks...
if you know of anyone who has any marketing skills or anyone else knows of anyone who has any marketing skills that might be interested we would love to talk to them of course.
as far as incremental releases goes, for the website its just not possible, what i can do tho is show some screenshots of the new wallet features as well as the new website as it comes along, tho doing actual incremental releases *OF* them (partially changed website etc) isn't really productive because it just means more overall work, same goes with the wallet, no point on releasing tons of little changes (in my opinion) which means people will have to update to see anything new, which is ok for some i suppose, i'd just rather have it when its properly ready to release rather than having to compile it for windows etc etc with each new little change.
we have set up a website for our project management system now, so its just a matter of everyone involved getting used to it and making sure everyone uses it (or else it loses its worth in my opinion), the changes syntaks has for the new wallet is awesome (and aren't anything other altcoins have in them) he just needs to find some time to do it, while working on another project at the same time so he has to juggle a bunch of things.
from taking over this project we haven't ever thought about it as a sprint, but always as a marathon, we don't care about nor will we pander to people who just care about mining and dumping or people who just want to 'trade' to make a quick buck, thats not what we are about, and there are PLENTY of crypto coins out there who are more than willing to try and rip you off or get caught up in pump n dumps if that is what you are looking for, if you are looking for a crypto currency and an actual project that has every intention of being around for a long time then we are here for you with open arms
