It seems out of character for him to go MIA in the middle of what is a successful test. The purpose of testing is to identify issues and see how it works/where to improve...and the issues seem like normal touch up - everything seems functional.
I'm guessing that it is something to do with real world issues. The optimist in me wants to say that he is coding like crazy and doesn't need to communicate (though it would be nice) but the realist in me says the latter...

Going to place the downvote on smartnode.
Ambiguous connotation, no direct association with prior terms and makes it more confusing.
There is no need for a renaming in my opinion...unless we go with SflarfinNodes!

Proper attribution (especially when it comes to open source attribution) doesn't mean that you need to put the name of the first guy who had that idea on your product...
Well, there is the problem. In my opinion, masternodes are NOT a product. They are a feature from the product, which is SpreadCoin. So while you're looking at naming a product, i'm looking at naming a feature. It makes simply no sense for me to rename a feature, while it makes no sense for you to NOT rename a product. Still, i am unable to see masternodes as a product. The only product i see is "spreadcoin", and everything else are features included in it. Just wanted to say that I think you summed it up quite well. Not disrespecting the debate but I'm rolling with that...

If anyone does make a legit Jesuscoin please let me in on the pre-mine. Also I would prefer sha256, or X11 or both!
Edit: Also it should have a ridiculously low supply. Perhaps 10,000?
YES! Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Oh goodness...you found a scripture for it. Please stop...for all that is Holy!!! lolz...

I still don't know why there is no ChristCoin. You know "in God we trust" that kinda thing. I bet it would go BIG.
Oh...they tried... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=399681.0I'm still amazed that it didn't go to the moon...but then again, I think people who believe in Jesus don't necessarily believe in the moon...; )

Are we really having the bit/satoshi argument here.
Refer to it as the industry standard reference. No name change necessary.
I am just happy that we have our original thread back. hahaha. See how such discussions keep us entertained and the trolls away? I love it. Everything we say here is just thinking out loud, to be taken with a grain of salt. Ofcourse. I'll buy that foe a dolla...spit balling is fine. But there is no reason to start implementing a name so that we have to explain everything again. People know what Masternodes are. The Masternodes here provide the same function and people already know what that entails. If anything, refer to them as 'easier Masternodes'. That said, I think that there is no harm in the discussion...I also think that Mr. Spread has the final say. If he continues to use the terminology that he has been using then there it is, perhaps. Of course, there is something to be said about a mildly heated discussion focused on SPR that keeps the trolls at bay...even if it is mildly fallacious...and I loled at the ape analogy. Let's use this as the main selling point when we market SPR in the Bible Belt...

Bitshare is still mysterious to me, I need to learn about.
Nice support from Spreadcoin !
Indeed...I would toss a few dice with my SPR...

Finished the theme selector in my spare time today! Settings are almost fully functional. If you guys want to stop posting this stuff just let me know.Changing themes (only two themes as of right now, going to add dark variants) Improved contacts: Add/Remove works, need to work on editing The orange looks off now look at it, any palettes you guys can recommend? (http://colourlovers.ca)Pretty slick in my opinion...-thumbsup-

Could not stand seeing all these MaidSafeCoins, Dogecoins, PayCoins having a marketcap bigger than Darkcoin. Hope it would change soon, for the Darkcoin's place on this chart is only one, at the very top No need to diss Maidsafe...it's a solid project. That said, Carry on...

Quoted from previous post
Ummm....the Spreadcoin_ account was started with permission from Mr. Spread and openly acknowledged to have permissions given to trusted members in the SPR community. Calling it a sock puppet account is applying out of context stigma... And if you are likening a flu analogy to something directly threatening than I would question the liberty that you are taking with interpreting comments...to the point of perhaps suggesting that you are being intentionally obtuse. I'm not saying the analogy would have been my first choice but I also don't think that there is any personal malice intended.

Is this the new Official thread?
It is an official thread...one of two. Where quality discussion ends up is up in air for now so I recommend watching both. Moreover, I support watching spreadcointalk.org if ever there is confusion...

Hi guys, Few minutes ago the CTO of OKcoin started to follow me on Twitter. have no reason why , except for the fact that my account is full of DRK decoration maybe ? See that they have no DRK exchange at the moment , do you think they are taking this into consideration ? I have no experience in trading with them , do you think it would be good for DRK if they did ? Shall I ask him or is that already done ? https://twitter.com/CpzhaoThanks of the advise Can confirm as a DRK/etcetera holder but more active elsewhere. I wouldn't put too much credence into his twitter follow; just marketing. I messaged him asking for impetus and he responded with "Buy BTC on OKCoin"...paraphrased.

so there's no official release dates set yet? is it gonna be released this month? Perhaps...the testing is going well... With regards to the thread started by the dev - He'll be back tomorrow; the other thread was started with his approval.

But this project suffers from price manipulation and lack of liquidity is still a deterrent to people joining. I've been saying this for a while now.
I think that I would argue price manipulation. I was part of the group that bought in 55K-60K. The reason it rose so much was due to the speculative nature of Mr. Spread's development and what was coming. The fallout occurred during the very concerted fud effort that was quite successful. Mr. Spread's banning didn't help either and might have helped the fud storm. There does seem to be a psychological deterrent though and some of it might be attributable to the the large amount of fanaticism amongst the DRK community (I say that in the most positive of ways; I am a DRK holder) - It's like some people painted there skin bright oranges and reds and grew fangs after buying DRK. Tis the nature of crypto. I also think that SPR is no threat to DRK. Those saying DRK or BTC level prices are possible/imminent are actually hurting in my opinion...but there is no reason that the price won't reflect the proficiency of Mr. Spread when the code is finished and released to Mainnet. With regards to lack of testers...phase two seems to have a higher participation rate than phase one. The thing with phase two is that 4 times as many MN's were required for testing and we are 80% of the way there in a bit over 36 hours. 300 MN's for phase one was a similar time frame if I am not mistaken... Of course, all we can do is see what happens. If it works...it works. How does it hurt the price if we establish what a coin is worth before it reaches that point? The reality is that coins are not backed by anything physical. This means that a coin is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If everyone believes that dogecoin will go to the moon, guess what people holding dogecoin will do? They will hold it until it hits the moon. If we express to the general population that SPR is worth $100 a piece (which I believe it is) then that will become the psychological value. Meaning that people will hold at least until that point, but by that point it will have become so popular that we can expect a stable price. I see no problem with your argument since my basis for assertion was that - psychological. The flip side impression could be just as negative...but less likely with a coin that is as established SPR. You might be surprised how many ANN threads I have read which turned out to be pump and dumps which contained moon exclamations...or not. The amount of coins I actually have placed money in is very small comparatively. Psych major here so I am generally interested in reading more than I post...doesn't always work out that way... That said, I am optimistic here. Testing here and haven't sold...; )

I think that if the community wants to start promoting the coin than that is definitely great. In fact, Mrcashking is doing a pretty good job of that. Right now, the most important aspect is development. We're at 1200 MN's and need just a few hundred moreish...everyone needs to hop on the test!
