You making this into something personal and making direct character attacks on somebody you know nothing about, and being completely wrong in what you say, makes you an idiot.

Most of the community had no trouble or problems with me. Only those that have posted in this topic and two others who finally gave up with the cry-baby crap. Look in the mirror and point to yourself, if you want to place blame where it belongs.

The only motivation I ever had for even trying - was to benefit the decent people by keeping LTCD alive and hopefully make it what it should have been from the start. Nobody paid me or the staff to fix it and keep it working. There were 2 donations - 50k LTCD from a community member and 0.5 BTC from BitcoinOperated Boy. Everything else came out of my pocket. I returned the donations back in January, in full and unused.

So, anyone telling me what I *OWE* the community - doesn't speak for the community - and can go eat a bag of dicks.

I am not disturbed at all. I am just very blunt about saying you few in here are the fuckheads that have annoyed the living shit out of me - to the degree that fixing LTCD was no longer worth fixing. All you want to do is pump it and dump it. Go do that with something else. I'm not going to do anything at all that will help any of you. Even at the cost of my own coins being held so as not to kill the chance for the smaller nicer LTCD holders to get out with something better than nothing.

Ok, you're right about sucking the girlfriend's dick. Go suck your boyfriend's dick. My mistake.

It was a mess when you and the other former devs gave up and announced that you would be shutting it down - due to the premine funds that disappeared.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760143.msg9607614#msg9607614  -- and work backward from there, to see about the missing funds -- go forward to see the blame-game and propaganda  -- in case you have forgotten

You should contact me first. You are already in breach of contract. I have upheld my end of the contract and intend to continue doing so. If that entails judiciary enforcement, so be it.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760143.msg9613879#msg9613879 (shall I scan and post the contract? or will you be a gentleman about it, as I have done the entire time?)

My face is rather gaunt, actually. Won't have a frown on it. Anybody steals it will pay the partnership and will be prosecuted criminally. Wipe off your passport and pack your luggage, you'll be crossing a few borders on your way to court.

Clone the code, pick a different crappy name, shoot for the moon - I'll cheer you on.

Sell it before it is worth even less.

The former devs killed the coin and abandoned the community. I and others came forward in an attempt to keep it alive. Code too fucked up, whiners spamming the official topic, scammers trying to bribe and extort me into helping their pump&dumps and implement code with malware.

My attitude is what prevented all of that from persisting. Me telling you all and some others when and how to go fuck yourselves - that's why you can still sell off today or next week.

Anyone who tries to resurrect or take over LiteCoinDark had better negotiate the purchase of the intellectual property through appropriate channels. Any of you are free to clone the code and pick a new name for your doomed-before-launch endeavor.

Have a nice day.

I did not resign. The development was discontinued. The intellectual property has not been abadoned and the blockchain is intact. Everyone still has their coins and can freely move them around, sell, or buy on exchanges.

I have a contract with the owner of the intellectual property. That gives me and the intellectual property owner (each of us separately) the legal right. One of us could prosecute in criminal court and the other could sue. Anyone summoned into court would have to make appearance or a ruling would be made in default against them. The summons could come suddenly and might not allow adequate time for a defendant to make travel arrangements. Travel cost would be at the defendant's expense.

Make an offer in gold, we might agree to sell.

If you'd like to start a similar type of coin with an empty blockchain and a different name, knock yourself out.

I'll put a sticky note on my monitor about this. I'll decide later, if it becomes relevant.



I did NOT actively work to drive the project into the ground. Had I actively done so, it would have been done in less than 1 hour and would have happened quite some time ago. Nope, it was you and a few others actively doing the driving into the ground. Oddly enough, you're still at it even though that job is done. Strange people... (1 for 1, you're being false)



What investors were those? Who attempted to negotiate any contribution of funds to finance any of the necessities? Oh, wait. You probably mean Bittrex customers buying product from other market sellers. Silly you. (false again AND a misuse of terms, that's 2 for 2)



And you are wrong to disagree. Doge allegedly has a fantastic community. Doge price is nearly half what LTCD dead price is, and I'm a jerk that you claim has ruined the LTCD community. People skills don't matter. It's a fallacy. (3 for 3, not going in your favor)



Disregarding, insulting, and belittling idiots does not constitute 'alienating'. One must alienate themself. To be clear, alienated community members are alienated because they chose to alienate themselves. (4 for 4, looking grim for you)


Aside from myself, the only other investor is unknown to anyone other than me. (5 for 5, because you can't identify the mystery investor and can't even prove there is one)


Mostly false. The non-false elements are irrelevant (so I call this one 6 for 6, you being wrong again)



Holy fuck, you actually almost got one right. But I don't mind being harmlessly attacked. I have not been brought down any notches, either. (6.5 for 7, you don't use words properly and thereby partially wrong - actually the .5 credit shouldn't even go in your favor because you mistakenly think that the opinion of people I will never meet even matters to me - but .5 credit is given because I do label some people as idiots and morons)

And this matters how? Does it make you special that you know a few people who did useless and low quality things? Bravo and congratulations, I suppose.

Tell you what - you and the gang run out and make tons of shitty videos and try to revive a dead clone coin that way. Make it a huge success. Then come back and tell me all about how you pulled it off.

I'm going to set the project aside for a while and spend the next 6 months or so deciding whether to dissolve it entirely or rebuild it properly, from the ground up fully and completely as a new coin (without a buyback of the current coins) before presenting it to the public - basically I'll stab it to death or I will bring it back the way they should have done it from the very beginning. Probably kill it completely because the name sucks. I also expect the crypto-boom is gone and there will be too many coin-corpses littering the interweb landscape by then. Or perhaps I'll bring it back with a new name. Maybe something like "CrestingtonLiteCoinDark". Make you feel good, perhaps.

Or maybe somebody will buy the intellectual property for 25/50/100 ounces of gold bullion and they can do whatever they like with it. It's for sale. Everything is for sale, if the price is right.



Magic?!? Is that what you look for when you consider where to put your money? Just ... Wow.



Except you and the other half dozen morons still here. You all would be the first to jump all over it hoping to pump and dump and then get out early - except you'd make the same mistake you already have and you'd stay too long after the dump, then blame anybody but yourselves for your own mistake of mismanaging your funds. Maybe we'll find out in 6 months or so. Maybe you and I will flirt back and forth again some day.

Well, thank you for the diagnosis, doctors. Boring and unimaginative, though. If that's the best you can do, you shouldn't have wasted your time.

Nothing was said by either of you about LTCD this time around, which is the title of this topic. Therefore, you're off-topic. Couldn't you have come up with just one more thing about LTCD (no matter how irrelevant or incorrect) to blame me for?

Have you fully vented your frustration and helplessness? Are you ready to "move on"? Or do you just need more time to manufacture some pointless complaint and then voice it in the form of a personal attack?

I'm curious about something. What will you all do now? Did you learn anything useful? Or will you redirect what's left of your losses into some other coin that's on the edge of failure, hoping it will somehow rise from its own ashes and make you 'feelthy reech'? There are plenty to choose from.

I never started any tirade. I simply respond in whatever way I am addressed.

You and many others misinterpret what you believe to be "power hunger". There is no "power" to be hungry for. Ooooooh Wow, gee I'm a great big somebody because I have a special type of username... Really?!? No. Locking threads serves one purpose - to stop people from posting unofficial nonsense in the official topic. I've said many times that other matters can and should be discussed by whoever wants to IN A SEPARATE TOPIC. I have clearly suggested that people should feel free to create topics and to title them appropriately to reflect what the topic might relate to. Posting every little thing in one single topic is moronic. Messy.

I don't own the name of the coin. I have no particular need to own it or any particular desire to own it. I do have a strong desire AND a contractual obligation to discourage anyone else from attempting to use it without permission. I am heavy handed about it. Who the fuck wants to use the name and why the hell? Oddly enough, there are some oddballs and nutcases out there.

I have not singlehandedly screwed anything into the ground. Nothing actually happened in the past 2 months. Ultimately, there was no achievement made. It was down and screwed into the ground already. No way it could have been made worse. It was already about as bad as it could get. So, do tell, if you think you can - what problem is there that did not already exist? Dirty words? Rules about what type of posts would not be acceptable in the [ANN]? Which trolls would be permanently excluded from the [ANN]? And that was a bad thing? Get a grip...

I have no interest in freezing this discussion. I'm the one who told the fuckwads to create it and bitch loudly and openly about me, my family, my habits, which of the freak trolls are fucking my dead mom's corpse, who has the biggest e-peen, how dead LTCD is/was, etc etc. This topic is exactly where that type of discussion belongs. Because I said so. Apparently the dipshits never figured out they could have been doing it all along. It takes a dirty dick like me to point it out to them. I'm happy to see you joined us all here. You truly belong. The place just wouldn't be the same had you not made your presence here.

Yes, I agree, partly. My negative attitude and willingness to hand out spanks is an asset. It's not my only asset. It just happens to be the asset which was spoonfed targets that have repeatedly come asking for it. Welcome to their clubhouse. However, my attitude was not the reason to select me as dev. Dunno where you got that idea from. The choice wasn't yours and you weren't part of the decision. You weren't meant to know what the reason was. I guess you just aren't cool enough for the important people to spit on you much less tell you anything. Leaving you clueless has already shown that your own best thinking isn't up to a high enough standard to give any indication that important matters would do anything for you beyond hurt your brain.

If gaining or losing support by anyone is predicated on attitude, you all are doing it wrong.

I have not been a catalyst for "all this shit". I do confess that I deliberately intended to be the catalyst that weeded out the trolls and the no-goodnicks from the decent people. Worked like a charm. Here you all are in one topic. Makes you easy to specifically identify. The rest of the quiet people who were looking for trading advice know exactly who you are and what you're all about and to consider you to be predators of their stash. You bitched to drive the price down, then you bitched because the price was down, then you wanted me to give false hope so the price would artificially rise to conveniently pad your pocket at their expense. To a loud half dozen of you, I am the devil incarnate. I can happily and easily live with that. Keep posting this stuff and escalating it. By doing so, you more strongly reinforce the wisdom of my method to expose you.

You've had PM with me. You asked for information and you were civilized about it. I replied in a civilized manner and provided full answers to your questions. Now, you step in line with the rest of the bitch-brigade. You were the holdout. The hardest one to draw out into the open. Props to you for being a bit less of an easy lay. However, if you'd played it cool and kept your head on straighter you might have actually been a challenge. Bummer that. I think there's still one more of you fuckers still in the shadows, probably to chickenshit to come out and play now, though.

Nope, you are right about lots of people NOT showing up here to bitch at me. It's only a few of you. You are the minority. Many were happy for the extended chance to prudently make their exit a while ago. You can see some evidence of this by looking at the exchanges. Not many people left with anything to dump, they're already out. Nobody has enough to stage a fake pump, because they're already out. You guys are the stupid ones that waited too long because you were too greedy or too clueless to flail and bail while you had a certain exit.

I am disappointed that Gen 2 was never finished and implemented. Many people would have had a better exit than they did.

How anyone could possibly believe that they (you or anyone else) has an open license to be abusive without any blowback is beyond my comprehension. To believe that I must behave to a higher standard just because somebody wants to call names and pick fights with immunity is also beyond my comprehension. I have just as much right to free speech and the full use of profanity and delivery of verbal abuse as anyone else.

I have no concern regarding a virtual reputation I'm perfectly fine with people calling me names. Doesn't hurt me a bit. I can play the name calling game better than most. I can also be more reasonable and professional than most. I wear jeans and a leather jacket just as well as I wear a suit and tie. It's all superficial and insignificant.

So, now that there is nothing relevant to discuss, you all want to play the blame game as if it would change anything. Well, you all mistating the facts doesn't change the facts. Prior devs gave up on it. I didn't. Several things contributed to the failure to recover LTCD. My choice of words when I post have nothing to do with it in any real sense. Proven by example when I have posted without profanity, nothing got better. Also proven when I post with profanity, nothing got worse.

LTCD never had a practical use, like nearly 1000 other clone coins. No infrastructure was built when it would have mattered. The lack of Gen 2 functionality and absence of Gen 2 anywhere in the compiled code when it was claimed that LTCD was Gen 2 - well, that speaks for itself. The particular choices regarding PoW and block halving weren't well thought out. The name was a poor choice, it was a sales gimmick. "Dark", hah! That was a bad idea. I pointed that out long before the devs gave up. I tried to get a rational discussion regarding a change of name. Thoughtful people agreed while shallow minded short-term hype-junkies disagreed. Coders with bad intentions were willing to provide their services if I would turn a blind eye on their work that would have included malicious code. Those were quite eager to contact me and volunteer for free. I refused. One good coder had unexpected real-life circumstances arise. One good coder was available but his work would have to have been preceded by the work of another coder who ended up running off with payment but not delivering what was paid for. Ad nauseum.

My selections for who would be on the team were misplaced and I didn't do a thorough enough job vetting them. None of the team has been available. One person gave a few hours, another person gave a few hours and contributed some funds.

My complete lack of PR skills and my unwillingness to lie or make empty promises is so diametrically opposed to how cryptos pump and dump that none of you can relate to my bluntness and reluctance to make announcements about pretend hype nonsense.

Crypto-junkies don't want facts, don't have the patience to wait for solid work to get completed and fully tested. Crypto-junkies thrive on hype, fluff, bullshit, and market manipulation by various means. And most crypto-junkies lose their ass because of those very things. My primary consideration was to prevent hype, pump and dump, fluff, trolling, and market manipulation as much as possible. Most of the people who are militantly angry at me and attacking me with their posts are the manipulators, the pump and dumpers, and the trolls. They are pissed at me for being pretty good at locking out the bullshit.

Buying any coin on any exchange is NOT investing in a project. It is simply the purchase of a virtual item sold by another person or entity. It is not a purchase of shares or an investment. When somebody buys a can of soda from a supermarket, they are not buying stock in the company that produced the soda. That common misunderstanding is perpetuated and goes uncorrected by many alt-coins. I'm unpopular because I've pointed it out more than once, and most of you don't believe me simply because you think it isn't true. To be an investor, you have to contribute funds that directly cover a portion of the cost of development (hosting fees, coding services, certification, etc). Nobody ever bought any coins from me because I have never sold. There are very few investors of LTCD and each of us has taken more of a loss than any of you exchange-coin buyers. Yet so many of you want to have a say-so in what gets done and when and how fast.

Constructive input from the community can be helpful. Most often, community suggestions are stupid, ridiculous, and counterproductive. Just as often, community input is presented in a hostile and/or bitchy manner. Nobody wants to read that crap. I'm one of the few people who will bitch right back. Most devs will kiss your ass while their coin value rises to a point which is acceptably profitable for them to dump and bail. I won't kiss anybody's ass. I bought a few million LTCD at a price above 3000 satoshis. I still own them and they are not in my possession. They will never be sold. There was never any motive for me to pet you all or make you feel warm and fuzzy so I could sell off at a profit. I already figured out back in October that my purchase was a net loss. I could afford to take that loss. Most of you have sofa-cushion-money thaqt you were hoping would turn you into millionaires. My goal was to avoid you all taking a total loss on your unwisely spent money and possibly help you get out with some profit or a break-even. Because I know that most of you can't afford to lose your $11.76 life savings.

You've all fooled yourselves into believing you got inside my head and that you understood my way of thinking. Then you did your best to deliberately misinterpret, misquote, and/or twist what you thought my posts signified and what you thought my mental process was. Your own egos wouldn't permit you to even consider that perhaps my mind was processing differently than how your own minds are motivated. You were wrong. You've fooled yourselves into thinking that beating this dead horse some more will get you any closer to where you wish you could be. That place is gone.

Bitching now and trying to find the nearest target to throw your blame at is completely pointless. Attacking me is pointless but entertaining. It's a bit less predictable than an XBox game, so most days I rather enjoy mutherfucking people right back. Ask and ye shall receive. Seek and ye shall find. Beg me for it, and I'll rip you a new one with a smile on my face.

So, what's next on the pity party agenda? I might humor you for a while longer, if you can make it interesting enough to keep me entertained.

Hours from now, when you've finished sounding out all the words in this long-ass post, I invite you to come back and give it another go.

Have a nice day.

No mom's basement for me. She was killed during a home invasion more than 40 years ago. So you're saying you did a corpse? You dug her up? That's probably some kind of crime, right there. It also makes you a self-professed sicko.

Your guess in regard to me and mom's basement is about as accurate as everything else you spew.

Yes, I and one other person can both prevent other parties from appropriating the intellectual property aspect of LTCD. You and anyone else can buy all the coins available at the exchanges. The domain is already registered and could only be obtained with the cooperation of the registrant. LiteCoinDark is a registered entity. I have exclusive rights (by contract) to be the only other authority regarding the disposition of the intellectual property. Unless the other party and I mutually agree to end our contract, I would need the consent of the other party to transfer to a 3rd party. The owner of the intellectual property cannot grant another 3rd party any right to use the intellectual property without my consent. We could both probably be convinced to sell the intellectual property rights for a significant sum (probably payable only in bullion).

You or anyone else can use the same open source code LTCD is based upon, choose a name for the coin, and have your own empty blockchain to start with and can fill it with 100% premine if you like. However, using the name LiteCoinDark would be inadvisable from a legal perspective. Using the name LiteCoinDark would also be counterproductive to a positive reputation.


There is no "stunting" (whatever you mean with that made up term).

Yes, LTCD is done. I said it first, not you. You saying it wouldn't matter anyway because you are a nobody and have no authority.

I haven't been a fuckface to everyone. Only to those who asked for the fuckface label to be applied to them, fuckface.

The rest of your bitching pretty is pretty much just you raging and trying to pick a useless forum fight. I'm willing to bandy words with you, but prefer to do the rest in PM. You already demonstrated that you are just as much a dickhead as I am. You by your nature, me by deliberate counter-attack.

I'd be just as safe lobbing insult grenades at you face to face as you are behind your keyboard. I'm willing to meet you for a beer and lob insults in person. I'll even buy the beer. How about it, princess? Can I buy you a drink?

There's nothing relevant to this topic for us to discuss. Perhaps you can start a new topic and title it Verbal Big Dick Contest - MikeyMillie the Princess vs Vic the Dick or take it to PM.

Very good advice. It appears they ignored me when I said it. Maybe your input will influence some people to divest before the option is no longer an option.

In order to continue this line of discussion in proper context, I need to know if you are a dick or a criminal.

Are you trolling for the sake of dickness? Or are do you intend to make an attempt to seize control of the LTCD project criminally?

You brought it up, you showed your ass. What kind of ass are we looking at?

Are you a "dick" or a "criminal"?

I know plenty about intellectual property and lawyers. It seems you do not.

You have not even addressed what specific intellectual property I am referring to and you've not even bothered to ask.

I will continue to point out the holes in what you post while not responding to your implications until you take your turn and tell us...

Are you a "dick" or a "criminal"?

You won't say "yes" and you won't say "no". I presume you could possibly be a criminal dick, then. And you really have nothing of substance to say or a leg to stand on.

Paycoin has nothing to do with this conversation. The circumstances are different.

Until you respond with "dick" or "criminal", I will disregard you.

We (at least I) are not discussing domain names. The subject is intellectual property.

So, to be clear:

Do you intend to make unauthorized use of intellectual property known as LiteCoinDark? Reply with a firm "yes" or "no", please. By stating which it is, we can be clear whether you are being hypothetical and trolling a non-issue just to be a dick or we can be clear that you have criminal intent.

Thank you.

I did not say me.

The owner of the intellectual property resides in a country that recognizes different laws than you are considering or even aware of.

Basically talking out your ass to hear your own thoughts.

It's over. Drop it. There's nothing you can do about it.

There won't be anything new. No new features. No new wallet. No new code.

Forward progress is not going to happen. Therefore dead. Not abandoned. Legally different meaning. Abandoned would mean somebody else could claim the name, the domain, etc without potential repurcussion.

Example, if your car died and you decided not to repair it but did keep it parked in your driveway - it would be useless but remain yours. If you left it dead on the side of the road (public property), it would be considered abandoned - you would lose any legal claim of ownership in 30 days which would allow anyone that wanted to take it the legal right to do so without any repurcussion.

Why do so many people deliberately make my words worse when it suits them and make them better when it suits them - instead of just reading the words and using their truly defined meaning? I use the words properly. People don't read properly.
