The reason we are not asking for additional help currently  is twofold:
- a fully-formed  team is on it
- there is a point where adding more manpower not only doesn't increase productivity but actually decreases it.

For the wallet, this is a bit different, there is a lot of things to consider which are not obvious and could be overlooked after a naive reading of what a wallet is and should do (I am abroad so I cannot be more specific on a smartphone with limited Internet access, remind me next week if you want more information).

Be sure we are aware that being technologically superior doesn't suffice (heck, it is not even necessary, look at VHS, Flash, HTML, SDRAM... None of them had first-mover or technological superiority advantage). We are also aware that the more you'll wait, the higher the expectations you'll have. Remember: underpromise overdeliver, weekly updates, haters gonna hate,  shorter gonna short,  dumpers gonna dump.

Well, every post from devs on here up unitl this point has had the tone of "we don't care if its hard to use, we aren't solving for the market, we are building the best coin..." etc... which up until this last post from you implies that its the "if we build it, they will come" magic thinking that permeates most technical folks and is completely wrong. But I am encouraged by your latest response, but a bit baffled by not accepting any help from the community with website or wallet to move things along. But hopefully you will show us that we had no reason to worry and a drop dead simple to use GUI wallet with a super friendly and professional website is just around the corner.

I love XMR's potential, but until the devs really understand the need for speed and the need for ease of use and the need for active marketing now while the iron is hot, [...]

Do you really believe we are not deeply aware of that and actively working on it (for weeks)?  Unfortunately, one cannot just copy-and-paste some Qt code and even copy BBR's  code would not suffice.

Edit: the same holds true for the website. We have designers, coders and marketers on it. Yes, it takes time but this is  because we know we will have to stick with end product for years (reason: inertia). It will be worth the wait.
Again, thanks to all people proposing help for the website -  even if we don't need any, your proposal are truly appreciated.

By the way: once the website will be operational, we will contact the various persons who proposed translations. We did not forget you!

Agreed, no more quotes. It's insane to think that one person could actually get 30k people into cryptocurrencies at once .. that would be a dream .. clearly a troll.

That was a hell of a dump over the last few days, it seems like it's cooled off now. I hope they get their chance to buy back in fast enough!

Be careful about Windows binaries, there could be trojan to steal coins or hash.

Only use binaries on the OP, with "monero.cc" in the URL.  If you download a binary somewhere else, use virustotal.com to check it.

I hope they never get their chance to buy back at lower price. They dumped 100 BTC worth of XMR the moment it was on mintpal, then they dumped 100 BTC more exactly 24 hours later and 100 BTC more again 24 hours after that. I think they managed to buy some more today, but are coming close to run out of XMR to dump big and I hope no one sell them, so they can't do it again and again. They want it to be a pump and dump shitcoin and they want to dominate the market.

Yeah, it's so wierd. Literally the night before the add, someone bought 50 BTC at once .. almost up to .01, then waited a little bit and did it again in a 50 BTC order all the way up to .01. Then it started falling and it was done again from mid .0075 up to around .009 again in a 50 BTC order. I just wish there was more padding to keep the price fluctuations at bay .. but .. again there's only about 1,500 people on poloniex .. therefore a limited amount of money to hold the price steady. MP didn't even have a chance to pump, everything was dumped on polo. It sucks to be a pump and dump .. but I'm sure it'll go away as more and more people put their money on the market, where it belongs .. and not have all of it rotting away in a flash drive.

That's a tough question. You'll hear the word "pump and dump teams" or "dump and pump teams" being thrown around a lot. That's only really part of the picture though. To smooth out wild fluctuations, the market demands lots of traders .. with the specific intent of wanting more XMR at the end of the day. Even better, anyone that owns XMR can be a trader!

Trying to get more XMR at the end of the day and succeeding means someone has spent bitcoin .. and the XMR that would have otherwise been in the hand of someone that clearly (or probably) didn't want the XMR is now in my capable hands. If everyone were a trader, there could be a very powerful force keeping major fluctuations from happening. Specifically .. if I have 50 xmr laying around .. and there's a gap as wide as .0052 top sell to .0050 top buy .. well that's a problem and an easy opportunity to make some more XMR .. while preventing someone from 'overbuying' it (or 'overselling' it in the reverse scenario)

Usually I'd just put some of my xmr for sale around .0052 and then if it sells .. put it back up immediately to buy xmr at around .0050 or a little higher. I don't flop it lazily on the market .. I break it up into as many small pieces as I can. Most of all .. I have fun with it. It's a currency, and must be well traded and traveled to get real value .. but that's just what I do I don't recommend anyone do that.

So my answer, is that it's my own fault .. because when someone wanted some xmr .. i wasn't fast enough to sell it to them .. and also wasn't fast enough to buy it from someone who wanted to sell it low.

Do they have hynix or elpida memory? Claymore has posted a hynix memory card to have speeds of 450 h/s. If yours has elpida it will be lower than that. Use something like gpu-z to see what kind of memory you have.
