The website looks great. I have several grammatical recommendations.
On the FAQ, you say, "This was discovered a few days ago by a developers at BitCoinTalk forums..." - "a developers" is singular/plural mismatch.
If it was discovered by more than one developer, remove the "a" and say, "This was discovered a few days ago by developers at..."
If it was discovered by one developer, make "developer" singular and say, "This was discovered a few days ago by a developer at..."
I would also remove the sentence, "He added lines of code to the source to hide the real total number of coins from us." It doesn't make sense to start a new paragraph with that sentence. I would re-word the first sentence to be, "The original developer of Asia Coin added source code which allowed him to premine a block containing a significant number of coins. Some of these coins were then distributed to exchanges and sold to honest buyers and investors." Everyone knows he made a fortune and there's no need to give him any credit with the last sentence of the first paragraph on this new page so remove it.
This sentence also contains an error: "We believe in Asia Coin, as do most of you who invested in this coin. We believe that this issue can be fixed, by voiding the premined coins and not allowing them to stake or be transferred."
I would shorten it to (note comma removal in the middle): "We believe in Asia Coin. We believe that this issue can be fixed by voiding the premined coins and not allowing them to stake or be transferred. This ensures only valid coins can be spent in the future."
Everything is good until: "Do i have to wait 1 year for the 100%" - The "i" needs to be capitalized.
This sentence needs a comma somewhere or rephrasing: "If you move your coins however it’ll take another 14 days to make them generate PoS blocks again."
I would rephrase to: "However, if you move your coins, it will take another 14 days to make them generate PoS blocks again."
This needs to be two sentences (and remove informal "kinda"): "This could happen, PoS kinda works like a lottery and not everyone will receive their interest every hour."
It should be: "This could happen. PoS works similar to a lottery and not everyone will receive their interest every hour."

Thanks. You're right. I have updated the FAQ page.

More grammatical recommendations. On the news page:
"This was made public earlier, and now the community is trying to revive AsiaCoin, with the support of its members and those who invested in AsiaCoin, to fix the issue, and relaunch the coin with a hard fork."
This sentence can be shortened to give a more dramatic effect.
"Now, the community is relaunching Asia Coin with a hard fork."
Notice we remove the word, "trying" because we are not trying, we are doing this!! It makes a statement that the community is fixing this!
This page also has a lot of interchanging of "AC" and "AsiaCoin." I would pick one and stick with it. Or...if you're going to shorten Asia Coin to AC, do so the very first time you say it and then use AC from then on. For example, "Background: AsiaCoin (AC)..." And then every time you mention AsiaCoin from here on out on this page, say, "AC." Either one is acceptable, just be consistent.
Edit: The site looks great. Thank you guys for everything you're doing.

Hi guys, is there any evidence that the old wallet contains keyloggers or malware to steal other coins from other wallets? I can't get a straight answer on this. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

I don't think there's any evidence that the old wallet specifically contained anything that could steal other coins (and never seen any report of it), but a couple of people found some questionable things in memory when the wallet was running. This will still continue our PoS?
Yes.

I can't say if it does or not, my guess is that it doesn't... the original dev was probably trying to make it as clean as possible other than his original scam of the hidden pre-mine. He probably wouldn't risk a keylogger on the software for fear it might be discovered before his premine was. That is all pure speculation on my part though. anybody ran a wireshark on the asiacoin program to see if it tries to connect to anything besides the asiacoin network?

I've left my original AsiaCoin wallet running since it was launched over two weeks ago and I also have other wallets running as well. It's fine.

Yes. Thanks Maestro, that's what I thought....i won't be opening the old shatbox of a wallet ever again (it's been about a week since ive opened it). Looking forward to the relaunch. I only hold 7,500 AC (not that significant) but I'm 110% percent behind the relaunch...I'm sick and tired of these low life scammers....Karma is not something that you want to fuk with and unfortunately the dirt bag dev has fuked with it.... sucks to be him/her. I'm glad to be part of this historic relaunch...I would like to personally thank the old dev for proving to me that this community is one that I want to be part of. The future for AC2 is bright...looking forward to it

As a result, he wouldn't of been able to steal as much $$$

i saw that you want to change the pos rate; i think it's bad because people are buying on specs; fixing the blockchain is ok but changing conditions after all that shit; i think it's a bad idea. let's +1 if you agree that will be easier to count good luck dev team cheers
