(Both locked shortly after posting, so that ONLY 'members' of the inner circle of mincoin could post their positive opinions)

Then visit the scammy trading site they put up: mcxnow.com

Then you can realize that block diff started at close to zero, and block rewards first 3 days was 500/100/50
Finally, you can feast your eyes on this awesome screenshot of members of the mincoin 'owners association' deciding to call me a scammer (4-5 actually showed up on BTC-E and started whining like kids calling me a scammer) and reporting back on their 'trading site'.

Oh, and every damn mincoin 'supporter' is a new JR member. Just saying.

I love these threads. They are like banking commercials "Hey Joe, do you need some quick cash? Why not pop over to Friendly Credit Union for all your banking needs?"

Ok, well if some mod wants to remove this thread I am ok with it. Don't want to be a dick to people. Just felt that it was needed to show what kind of 'fans' this coin has and how serious the exchange seems to be.

There was a bounty offered for people to start threads about Mincoin here on the Alt Currency Section, hence the Jr.Members posting about it. I tried to talk with them about it, asking that they at least require that the threads have some useful content, rather than just spam.

Why are people so eager to criticize Mincoin over this when CHN and FTC were promoted/pumped even more on these forums? It seems mostpeople are unhappy about missing out on the easy coins at the start more than anything and hold a grudge. Bitbar also had extreme rewards for the people that browse the alt-forum 24-7. But instead of 3 days you only had a few hours to get any bitbars, after that the reward dropped to pretty much nothing. All i'm saying is you should be more fair when calling coins out as scams.
