Either most of the XT followers here are not aware of these things or are being stubborn and ignorant at the same time. You have no idea how easy it is to manipulate the members of this forum. While the main story is related to the block size, this is what XT currently consists of:
- Automatic blacklisting controlled by the Tor project (AFAIK without their consent).
- Buggy block size validation.
- Lighthouse slave support.
- Incomplete/buggy double spend detection.
If this was a Hearn vs theymos thread, I'd have to question the sanity of everyone on Hearns side. Theymos did nothing wrong. This is a privately owned forum (i.e. theymos is letting you play in his backyard), and you're just lucky that some stricter person isn't calling the shots (else most XT supporters would be banned by now for constantly breaking the rules).
Can you imagine if Hearn was the sysop here instead of thermos? I would be banhammered into the next galaxy!
Thermos is so chill, it makes the "zomg censorship what's next, book burnings and lists?" hyperbole way too funny.
