Hey Everyone. I have been off the scene for about a month (lost internet). But I'm back. Glad to see things are still progressing.
I just received my TOR Stick. I checked the XC-official.com site, but there are no instructions on how to use it.
Anyone have a pdf or something they can share on how to work with this?
Get over to slack chat and you'll be able to find some help.
how do we get on slack chat?

I have not being able to properly sync my wallet for a week now.
It always shows downloading 14000ish blocks and i leave my wallet open for up to 8 hours try to sync with network.
When I reopen wallet, it shows that I'm downloading 14000ish block again. it just never finishes sync.
I have tried re-install my wallet. and also replace blkindex.dat file. But nothing works.
have anybody else have this problem or anybody knows how to fix it ?
Thank you guys
Did you have a series of small stakes come in right as your wallet went out of sync? We have been helping people with sync issues in Slack and it seems that sometimes the client starts staking before it is synced and ends up on its own fork. It could be an issue with POS itself, not just with XC. Regardless, Dan is aware of the issue and working on a fix.
Unfortunately, the only solution after it happens is to delete everything but your wallet.dat and start over. Transfer your wallet.dat to your desktop or some other folder for safe keeping. Then delete the /AppData/Roaming/XCurrency folder and re-install the wallet and resync the blockchain. It is very likely that you will need to exit the client and relaunch it several times as it redownloads the blockchain. It is not uncommon for it to stall out.

I had this happen to me also. After deleting the files and letting the wallet sync, I had to run the "repairwallet" command in the debug window to get back the coins that were staked without being synced.
This can be done in the debug console in your wallet. Open your wallet and go to Help >> Debug Window >> Console and type in "repairwallet" without the quotes.
Thanks you guys very much.Yes. This is exactly what happened to my wallet. It has a series of small stakes come in right as my wallet went out of sync.
So all i have to do is
1. backup my wallet.dat
2. delete the whole thing
3. re-intall the xc wallet.
4. let the wallet re-sync correctly
I'm not sure about the following steps.
5. copy the wallet.dat back to /AppData/Roaming/XCurrency folder ?
6. open debug window console and "repairwallet" without the quotes ?
7. then what to do ? does the my old balance just reappear or is there other step to follow?
Please help me clearify the last 3 steps.
Thank you guys again
