the original Satoshi vision was that full nodes also mine. He is somewhat right in that theoretically a full node miner should prioritize propogation to other miners. I think the main point is that we don't need thousands of thousands of nodes that don't mine and only relay, although it is good to have some non mining full nodes to serve SPV users.
Checks and balances are what keep the world stable. I don't trust the miners to consistently do the right thing, nor do I particularly trust anyone else. The more nodes there are stating their case and enforcing the rules the better, miner or not.

You could run 100 full nodes but still you'll need miners to confirm and include your transaction in blocks. Nodes are agents of miners delivering them TXs and handing out their found blocks to rest of the network.
you could have a pool with a billion exahash, but if the block didnt follow the rules nodes have.. the block is rejected in 3 seconds. its a symbiotic relationship of many elements And you being a bitcoin lover without mining then running 100 full nodes just to help the network still you need to pay high fees for your tx to confirm, still nothing changes for you, miners including tx in blocks. Of course they need to obey nodes rules otherwise it's some other coin they'd be mining, but miners have their own nodes and majority consensus agrees on those rules lol r we doing the basics all over again? we know these things already.

so you dont really agree with Ver, then?
I somewhat agree with you but its such an edge case that its almost irrelevant.
without knowing the context of the tweet. its hard to tell. afterall if you have P - n - n - n -p 3 nodes between a pool (or lets say 6000 nodes that need to validate to form good diverse consensus) vs P - n - n - n - n - n - n - n - n - n - n - p 10 nodes between a pool (or lets say 20000 nodes that need to validate to form good diverse consensus) the propagation time of getting the data to all entities of the network takes longer, even if your using the '6( 8 ) degree of separation' network connectivity

https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/853250894162350080Only a node that is mining is a true full node. The rest are just slowing down the propagation of blocks between the real full nodes. At this point, I am convinced Roger Ver is compromised and is posting absurd shit like this to tip us off. There you have it folks. One of the stupidest statements that I have ever heard in my life within the cryptocurrency ecosystem. What is Bitcoin if users can't attain financial sovereignty by running their own fully validating client? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Did you get tired of being a shill for BUgcoin and joined signature campaign? did Jihan fired you?
Anyone defending Ver or this statement at this point is really delusional or paid. I don't see any other possible explanations. without knowing the context of the tweet. its hard to tell.
There is no context, he was not responding to anyone. He just put it out there.

Noone should even dare to use one ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) and try validate bloks. Okay joking. Roger sucks hard 1st MTgox now that pathetic SHOW guys COME ONE. Roger got alts like DASH MONERO and after he bought them he went and share his investments ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ... I kno many good alt coins but being face of BTC and promoting alts is pathetic. He dumped on followers and i hope those one were burned at 100$ DASH to get lesson.

And in time of uncertainty you can use own node to validate blocks to not get on BTU trap if they fork accidentally.

He's either compromised by some corporation or agency, or he is brainwashed. Correct.

"based on the bitcoin network of 2009, not 2017 what is a full node" being a question asked to him elsewhere, but then the question got deleted... but no one can guess the context without finding the source for WHY he make the tweet

People have no incentive to run non mining full nodes, we need what Satoshi suggested, big server farms only running full nodes and everyone else look up to them knowing they're running on valid chain.

I don't think I would go as far as to say that Roger is "compromised"
In satoshi's whitepaper, he referred to nodes as a mining entity, and referred to non-mining entities as "SPV clients"
In practice today, anyone who is receiving a payment of BTC prior to sending goods/services does need to be running a full node.

When I first started with Bitcoin I was running Core for 3 months, opening it from 1:00 AM until 6:00 AM and couldn't fully sync with network ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Back then total blockchain size was 80GB or 50GB I think with internet speed of 256kbps/8=32KBps I figured I might be slowing down other 8 nodes connected to me and was using a laptop that I bought back in 2007 so I stopped and deleted more than 40GB of blockchain data. I even used to place a fan in front of my laptop and turning it on so it can get cooler, I consider that a burden don't you?

https://blockchain.info/en/poolsLife made HARD LOL from satoshi whitepaper assumptions - now miners join into pools and ONLY pool operator have to run full node. So according to Roger we should have today 26 FULL NODES ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) - THAT WOULD BE GREAT SECURITY FEATURE have 26 nodes than 7000+ According to Satoshi white paper 7000 < 26 pool nodes. I hope you see how satoshi ideal money can not work as he want. People have no incentive to run non mining full nodes, we need what Satoshi suggested, big server farms only running full nodes and everyone else look up to them knowing they're running on valid chain.
If you don't want send money to fork like BTU can be via spv server bug ,you have to run own full node today. Satoshi hasn't predicted Bitmain hard-fork complications and mining power centralization. Same goes to many projects when final build is not same like 1st draft because you can not predict road.

nope a full node should ALSO validate what it receives. EG just grabbing data from a bittorrent seed. but never independently revalidating the entire blockchain data. may contain bad data somewhere in that download but now we are getting into the personal semantics .. afterall would u say a prunned node is a full node afterall would u say a stripped(no witness) node is a full node

I do not remember who is Roger Ver, wasn't he someone important here, in term of developpment at least ? Or wasn't he the Bitcoin Unlimited guy ? In case this fool is him, you should not wait anything intelligent coming from him.
What I've heard about him is that he's been involved in some shady stuff (if I recall, he was convicted of selling explosives on eBay; probably fireworks of some sort if I remember right). And then he helped promote Bitcoin, moved out of the U.S., and gave up his U.S. citizenship. From the sound of things, he doesn't get along well with the U.S. authorities.
