Good. If you're not offending the bulk of people you're dealing with you're probably not pushing the boundaries enough. 

Okay, understand now. (Forums like these are the poster child of ambiguity and lack-of-clarity).

Wasn't suggesting anyone should beat up anyone, but in language sometimes people say "he's really gonna get it" when they're referring to someone being on the wrong end of abuse for something they've done or perceived to have done. So I was simply trying to comprehend if your words were along those lines.

I'm not blaming you at all OCMiner, just trying to understand what coins101 is talking about (and maybe your text above isn't directed at me, so understand if it isn't). I've actually found your posts and explanations very interesting.

I'm not following you coins. OCMiner is going to "get it" as in he'll fully understand what's happened to Mr Spread because of his (OCMiner's) previous posting about using SSL to protect miners' private keys so they can operate in a pool (on this "no pools" coin) or he's going to "get it" as in everyone's going to beat him up for his postings that have driven Mr Spread away (or some other notion)? Can you articulate what you're saying a bit further?

(I'm not getting the popcorn out as I don't think there's much to see. It's likely all over at this point)

I'm not. Definitely not.

There's something quite disturbing and unsettling about how people follow these devs with such adoration and fanaticism, and then when the dev does something that in any normal realm would have them be virtually struck off as unreliable and untrustworthy (i.e. a job, a business, a normal project being executed with real face-to-face people), everyone comes up with all sorts of accommodative excuses.

I'm sorry but I think we all need to face up to a harsh truth here. He was last online here on BCT on February 16, 2015, 09:07:09 AM and on SCT on February 15, 2015, 12:42:30 AM. That's over 5 days now.

Whether Mr Spread is off celebrating Chinese New Year or he's on a beach somewhere having a break, it's completely and utterly unacceptable to leave people hanging like this, especially given the crypto realm's history of hacks and scams.

I am so sick of taking an interest in things like this that end up being (yet again) massive disappointments. Honestly, it's just complete BS and that we're now all speculating as to what's happened is testament to how silly we've let things get in this online world where normal rules of decency and accountability have just been trampled on (good grief, try explaining this to someone not involved in crypto - it can't be justified. I need to get away from this ridiculousness).

Either Mr Spread has bailed or he's had some calamitous thing happen and he's in hospital unable to logon to these forums, he's being held somewhere against his will, he's had a family tragedy and is completely focussed on that as a far higher priority (which it is) or he's dead.

Even if he comes back now to tell us he was away at Chinese NY celebrations, how can anyone possibly expect SPR to be taken seriously?

Guys something is very wrong about this.

His BCT profile is displaying last active: February 16, 2015, 09:07:09 AM

At a minimum he's been away from both forums for 3 days now.

Given we're in the middle of MN testing I'm simply astounded he wouldn't have said he'll be off air for a while.

Has this happened previously? From my approx 2 months' experience of SPR it appears to be out of character.

Except, it should be noted that the "0.23 DRK/day" number in drk.mn is incorrect.
2112 masternodes = 1 payment every 2112/576 = 3.666666~
So you'll have 1.75 Drk / 3.666666 = 0.48 Drk / day.

Okay, thanks.

Well I haven't been (worrying that is). But at 10 days now I'm starting to (just very slightly. cue: whimpering puppy sound).

It's Mangled Blue's service. Search on his username to find it.

Some of the comments on here about payments are leaving me wondering if I need to completely rebuild my MN from scratch (even though I update mine with every new release within 24 hours). Now, I know these comments might be from people that have numerous MNs, but I'm feeling much "left out" here. These are my last three payments:

14b04adc76...   210819   2015-01-28 19:15:38   2.08981068   1017.14054568   DRK
29e85a9af1...   211828   2015-01-30 15:09:57   1.7422714   1018.88281708   DRK
a925891d7b...   215547   2015-02-06 09:59:00   1.7478964   1020.63071348   DRK

As you can see it's been 10 days since the last one! I know much has happened on the network but reading comments like "Can't wait to go to sleep and wake up to vibrations from the MN payment" (which, as I've noted, might be for multiple MNs) I'd just be happy to be getting one consistently every four days!

Yes, I believe so. It's the interpretation of those IP addresses against some sort of geo database that's inaccurate.

You're here for the express purpose of putting Darkcoin down, of adding innuendo to your posts, and generally attempting to draw attention to your (now) favourite coin. AND then you want people to stop quoting you? Are you of even less substance than your actions and activities here indicate?

You keep saying you're leaving, you're only posting one more response, you're not really interested, blah blah blah. YET you're still here!!

Go away now and don't come back unless you have something of use to this community to offer.

I would take that map with a grain of salt (i.e. don't trust it). My MN is running on a Sydney, Australia based Vultr VPS instance yet the Ninja MN monitoring page has described it as being in the US since I established it and I don't why that is. There are other Darkcoiners down here with MNs having the same issue. I would expect there are MNs in New Zealand too, however this mapping tool isn't working properly and I doubt it's at all accurate.

It all went up at the speed of X in an Instant stonehedge.....

Done

Otoh

I don't know anything much about him except he's been here on BCT since mid 2011, has contributed over 2500 posts and (I believe) was an early Bitcoin investor that did extraordinarily well (hence his ability to have such large buy walls).

Edit: Otoh may sand for "On the other hand" or it may refer to something completely different. Ask him directly.

Otoh's a deep-pocketed Darkcoin supporter. Go to either Cryptsy or Bitfinex and if you see something like this, you're looking at a patented Otoh Wall™.
