+100 on this.
One person keep making non-factual statements against a community is trolling. But an entire community speak out against one person is a public outrage.
This “silverkinguk” guy’s disrespectfulness and authoritative tone has clearly caused an outrage here. XC team member shouldn’t allow to speak to our community this way.
But those are just sentimental issues, let’s focus on the real issues here, the “collaboration”.
I encourage our community to go over the Qibuck thread and learn more about them. You can see that Qibuck is a much inferior coin and this “collaboration” does not make any sense. This “silverkinguk” guy and that qiwomen are the co-founder of Qibuck. It seems that he is much more invested in the Qibuck project than he is with the XC community. Is he doing what’s best for XC or is he doing what’s best for him and Qibuck? There is clearly a conflict of interest here.
It does appear to me that this guy is using his title of “XC foundation member” to promote his own coin. What has he really done for the XC community anyway? Does he really deserve to be on the XC team?
I think we should have a voting system in case like this. For every 1000xc you hold, you will have 1 vote. We as a community, should be able to vote on whether or not we want a “collaboration” with his coin, and whether or not we want this person to be on the team. NO one person should have the power to just come in here and tell everybody to shut up and listen to him.
I promise you that this collaboration will be hugely to XC's benefit.
The details of it will be announced tomorrow.
Personally I'm not of the opinion that silverkinguk conducted himself ethically. However this isn't to assert that the people who attacked qiwoman last night and who repeatedly criticised the collaboration acted ethically either. It was a shameful mess all round.
It has also been made known to me that some people associated with XC have been fudding other coins, and this is completely awful. We loathe FUD wherever it may be found and XC does not support it or associate itself with it in any way.
If anyone here has fudded any other coin (including QiBuck), I ask you please to publicly apologise (both here and on its thread) and to publicly state that your actions have nothing whatsoever to do with XC.
XC has slowly but surely won back credibility after the FUD launched at it by a competitor did it so much damage. Why make a mockery of what XC has fought hard to put behind it?
Thank you, Don't know what this community would do without you.
Please do not just say some people been fudding other coins. Do point out their names, be specific. So we know who they are and it puts more presure on them to not do it in the future.
Also when you just say "some people", it makes people guessing and it makes all of us looks bad. I have never fud other coins. It's not fair to the rest of us.
And back to the real questions here.
What has silverkinguk done for the XC community ? Why does he deserve to be on the XC foundation ?How are we dealing with his conflict of interest since he is the co-founder of Qibuck ?Is he pushing this "collaboration" for XC or for himself and his own coin ? I think we the community deserve to know
