That about sums it up.

I'd add in there are 'unofficial' clients, for those who still wish to support Solidcoin and not CH.

You left out the fact that CH fixed artfroz's exploit almost immediately.

[Cosbycoin]

You left out the fact that CH fixed artfroz's exploit almost immediately.

You also forgot that that fix disabled DoubleC from opening his exchange.

He released a broken update.

Capping transactions sizes to 4KB was retarded.

That's kinda sad, really

DoubleC refused to open the exchange because of the license change, and surrounding drama. There was nothing really "preventing" him from opening the exchange back up after the fix was put in place. This is considering that none of the other 4 exchanges had problems taking coins after the update. As for you thinking the cap was "retarded" is your opinion, which we can clearly see by the original post.

Uhh no. When that update with the transaction cap was released it disabled DoubleC from allowing deposits and withdrawals.

Get your facts straight.

yes it was retarded because it disallowed the biggest exchange from allowing deposits and withdrawals.

CH has a quick turn around with his "updates" yet when they are released they make the system that much usable. That is retarded. Anyone who writes software should test it it thoroughly before public launch.

Obviously in that case he was rushing.

Whatever I am not here to argue. This community is dying because of peoples unwillingness to be civil to each other. Lets hope this piece of shit forum doesn't take Bitcoin and other crypto-currencys with it.

Okay so you are not here to argue but you are here to spread misinformation and tweaked data that looks only at one side of the story.

I have listed a whole slew of things that have happened as facts in the original post concerning solidcoin.

What you have done is try to make things not look as bad as they are.

I am just calling a spade a spade. Solidcoin is a mess and a failure not due to its own doing but the doing of its founder and his followers like yourself.

EDIT: If my being truthful and opening up the facts about what has transpired around solidcoin and CH and its supporters is "uncivil" as you call it, then I am not sure what you would call "civil".

Maybe someone that only has an optimistic and bias view on something in hopes that it will succeed despite its many failures is considered civil ya?

This place seems to be nothing but trolls these days. Most of this crap is fud.

Yes 1.03 the fix for arts transaction exploit broke some transactions, then he released within 24hrs 1.04 which fixed the medium sized transaction bug, and included the please ask me before changing my code license, that pissed off the community. And set the trolls off on over drive.

you also missed the part where everyone said SC was dead and then the price recovered.

and missed the fact that a  hacker, in his zeal to attack solidcoin, attacked the entire community getting the largest exchange FOR ALL COINS to get shut down.

and the fact that these trolls and hackers  are allowed to run free here is probably a huge reason why the bitcoin price is below $5 and staying there. People come here  and it looks like a kindergarden.

If you have real complaints, for sure post them, but 90% of the crap here is just troll crap, and it is destroying the community and bitcoin itself.

Solidcoin is a mess and a failure not due to its own doing but the doing of its founder and his followers like yourself.

actually it was doing just fine, until bitcoin express threated to destroy all alt coins.


and how the hell can you blame moonco.in on solidcoin? and you say you are spreading facts and not fud? LOL

[Lolcust]

Guys, guys, I suggest we stop being mean to solidcoin until Ye Promissed Articleth is released.

Local cow-pewter magicians will take a look at it and judge it's worth

meanwhile, let's discuss... I dunno. Something else... Do you like anacondas guys ?



They're so cute ^__^

[johnj]

and you say you are spreading facts and not fud? LOL

Really?

Coinhunter is one of the biggest promoters of flaming and falsehoods.

But if you want to help, great!  Maybe you can bend CH's ear and get him to support this as well.

The SolidCoin community can start by publicly denouncing CH's "Bitcoin to Collapse" propaganda.  You know, the lie he paid bounties for people to spread.

I'm waiting

Okay. Today where is the price? Right there is no price.

and missed the fact that a  hacker, in his zeal to attack solidcoin, attacked the entire community getting the largest exchange FOR ALL COINS to get shut down.

I presume you are referring to BitcoinEXpress? He merely was responding to CH's touting of an attitude if you look at the threads. And of course CH made an announcement to shutdown SC.

and the fact that these trolls and hackers  are allowed to run free here is probably a huge reason why the bitcoin price is below $5 and staying there. People come here  and it looks like a kindergarden.

I'm sorry you feel that way. But I somehow doubt this subforum is having a huge impact on the overall status of bitcoin.

"oh no guys I'm an early adopter and because they are attacking and debunking solidcoin I need to unload my 200,000 bitcoins now!"

If you have real complaints, for sure post them, but 90% of the crap here is just troll crap, and it is destroying the community and bitcoin itself.

Please mark the 90% of what I put on the initial post as crap. I would sure like to get my facts straight.

Solidcoin is a mess and a failure not due to its own doing but the doing of its founder and his followers like yourself.

actually it was doing just fine, until bitcoin express threated to destroy all alt coins.

Yeah I guess if you consider the largest exchange and largest pool closing down purely based on CH's arrogance as "doing fine".

and how the hell can you blame moonco.in on solidcoin? and you say you are spreading facts and not fud? LOL

Please show me where I said moonco.in shutting down as a result of solidcoin. You need to get your facts straight here.

Cosbycoin you are smoothie right ?

Why are you so obsessed by solidcoin ? 250 posts since 12 September... 90% about solidcoin..

1. Released with a promising future.

everything is correct, except the first one: solidcoin never had a future.

[Sp0tter]

This looks like an accurate recap to me.    *Stamps his approval on this as a fast way to cut through the silly drama and know what's going on for new people.*

I think the solid coin story would make a good movie or at least it could bypass the cinema and dvd completely and go straight to bittorrent.
Would love to see Lorna start her acting career.

You're preaching to the choir cosbycoin, even though a lot of what you wrote is wrong it doesn't matter, they'll eat it up. Add a few virgin sacrifices, gangland hits and a meth lab while you're at it, they'll applaud and you'll get the attention you seek. Nothing anyone says is going to stop the steam train which is SC2.0 from coming.

I will make one concession though, I shouldn't have been as naive as I was to assume the hackers and trolls were going to be out as quick as they were. The plan was to migrate to what is now SC2.0 over a few weeks with an upgrade path that didn't affect any users. Due to the attacks I had to shut down the network instead to ensure people didn't lose their investments and make it more abrupt but the end result is the same. The #1 chain.

SolidCoin will restart with thousands of users, thousands of existing investors and more business support. Anyhow I do find threads like this entertaining and I should thank you all for keeping SolidCoin in the news over here.
