I will not be deleting posts simply because you have a criticism of monero so long as your posts are tactful, don't contain any logical fallacies, rhetorical trickery or sophism in general...

For the immediate funding needs, can an early GUI be offered to donors for a test-run?
For long-term funding, can the mix-in include a percentage fee to the devs?
And thank you for creating a Troll free zone. If I ever see the name Surplus Bob on here, I'll, I'll...thank him for helping me get discounted Monero

For immediate funding, donation and MEW membership are useful mechanisms, and encouraging others for this would help also.
Picture is of a Tucker 48. A car that was more advanced than anything being produced in Detroit at the time. The Big Three automakers made sure to use every means possible to make sure there wasn't a Tucker 49. There wasn't.
Great movie on the subject: Tucker, a Man and His Dream.same thing happened to MySpace, MilliVanilli, and Boone's Farm. All great brands unfairly hounded off their pedestal in history.
MilliVanilli,
My friend threw away their albums when he found out that it wasn't the guys in the videos--I asked him, "Why? It's not like the music changed." 
Not sure if he was still mad at them or the fact that he was buying the brand and not the product.

Hey
Same remark that I made initially in the moderated speculation thread: I'm skeptical of moderated threads, but I do understand the need for them in the hostile environment that can be the alt section (or, any section of this forum actually).
Hope the current mod is going easy on the moderation (i.e. if in doubt, don't delete), and that critical posts and questions aren't deleted without good reason.
That said, obvious FUD, or just plain uninformative troll posts: nuke 'em

Unfortunately, the early GUI is not possible. This is not a puzzle where you can appreciate half of the picture if you only have half of the pieces. When the GUI will be usable, it would be 90% complete.For long-term funding, can the mix-in include a percentage fee to the devs?

Do we have a ballpark timeline for release?
Weeks? Months? more like a year?
Hi! I read the whole thread and the air is so clear here

When you lose interest in a program, your last duty to it is to hand it off to a competent successor.
So, Anon136, don't forget to find a successor when you'll be tired!Understood.
Hi everybody.
This is anon136. I guess I'll be moderating this thread for a little while. Since we are having such a problem with trolling and fud elsewhere ill probably be leaning more towards the over zealous side so please don't be too offended if I delete your post and you didn't intend to spam. With that said i want critics to feel welcome here. I will not be deleting posts simply because you have a criticism of monero so long as your posts are tactful, don't contain any logical fallacies, rhetorical trickery or sophism in general and do contain at least one argument of legitimate substance.

F___t (my turn )
Seriously, I just re-created the moderated general thread for scalability reasons. When I proposed that the ANN would have a dedicated account, I expected it would be useful and it actually proved to be beyond imagination. For obvious reasons, I created this thread with "monero-extended" and not "monero". Anon136 has the password so he will moderate if he agrees to do so.
blaaaaacksuit, xulescu, statdude, Anon136, pa, smooth, Mumbles, Nekomata, PestoQuinty, generalizethis, iourzzz, Bassica, ×, feel free to repost your old posts here.
I'll conclude with one of my favourite quote, from The Cathedral and the Bazaar:

This thread is for discussions related to Monero. It will be moderated by various persons, presently Anon136.
If you are a troll or fudster don’t bother posting here, your post will be deleted. To all others, welcome. If I see a reply that I just deleted quoted than I'm going to that reply also.
