Don't you have your XT circlejerk forum now? Why don't you stay over there?

It's not about XT. XT is only one of several new proposals to remove the limit.

Yep, and not of them is any relevant until they get into core

Blocksize will be increased.Like or not.Laugh as much as you. We will see bigger Blocks!!It's inevitable.The majority of the community wants it.The big BTC companies want it.Big part of the Miners are in as well.So no doubt.

The "community" you speak of, ie. general redditards and bitcointalk users, are not representative of the bitcoin holders. As such, their opinion is as irrelevant to those of "big BTC companies" (corporate bankers shills trying to capture Bitcoin) and the other power hungry miners who don't know better.

You might get a block increase, but you will be sorely disappointed by its scale and its results.

You might get a block increase, but you will be sorely disappointed by its results. Why do you want a block increase anyway?

To make bitcoin ready for future growth in transaction rate. To make room for new users, merchants and use cases. To keep transaction fees competitive and affordable to larger demographic. To give confidence to all actors in bitcoin space that the transaction rate will not be stunted by some artificial cap designed for a completely different purpose. To give an opportunity to Satoshi's vision that the  "eventual solution will be to not care how big it gets". (We wouldn't have bitcoin if he wasn't right in great many things)

Well, that's few reasons I could think just now, but there's probably more.

A majority of speculators (holders) also wants bigger blocks.

I'm fine with this.

He can't, it's just speculation.
Well people, spend all your coins on the longest chain supporting bigger blocks.
I'll spend mine on the shorter chain and make sure my coins are backwards compatible. (Or don't spend them at all if there is a block size increase)

[alani123]

Don't worry, core is still going strong. There's plenty of people looking to avoid a non consensus fork.

[Mickeyb]

And I have just opened a thread yesterday night how the XT fork threads have become rare in the last few days while price started going up. What a weird correlation! And here they come again, the XT threads!

Honestly, I think that people are tired as well. Who cares what did Gavin do and what did Hearn do anymore? Blocks will be raised, but by the consensus of everybody, or almost everybody, not by the ransom of two guys.

[BCwinning]

I'm not fine with how it's being handled so I continue to run core node with over 70 connections at any given time.
Theres my vote.

I said that according to this failed troll poll: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1091654.0

And that was not just about bigger blocks but about XT. It says a lot.

Oh I see. Very sharp indeed. I stand corrected

No forum per se I can find just a Google Group.

[maokoto]

Definitely most people want a block increase. But I think that that it is for no particular technical reason, but because they perceive that raising the block limit will settle things.

The most irrelevant users in the bitcoin community will be those who call other users notoriously  'irrelevant', 'sheeps', 'redditards';
the antidemocratic elitists, the banners, the censors;
the warriors with their vulgar language, the DDos'ers; those who notoriously manipulate quotes, fake nodes etc.

There is no way that the mentality of those people will be winning. They are destined to be forked away to cook their own soup.

 Already most of people here recognise XT like danger for bicoin,whatdo you want from bitcoin core,everything was going in right direction,maybe slow  but right way.And now XT developers are trying to say that thay came to rescue btc from crash,lies.lies,lies
