Maybe there should be a paragraph on the website explaining what NEM actually is? Preferably in layman's terms so non-tech savvy people will know what it is.  

E.g. "NEM is a cryptographic, decentralised payment system and economic ecosystem. Blah  blah no central bank blah blah rewarding users with transaction fees blah blah."

Also might be wise to mention the client is free? Just buzz words

I agree with you Clam. Bringing things down to layman will be key to NEMs continued succes.

Speaking of which, I recall there being talk of having our client compatible with feature phones/non-smart phones - so that our features can reach the masses. Anything new on this?

Yup. It's very easy to fall for the same traps as others - by assuming people understand even basics that everyone else (like us) considers common knowledge.

You get this in any field regardless of specialty - and you get "specialists" who frequently assume people understand even basics the majority are unaware of.

Clear, step-by step guides are an absolute must, not just in the wallet setup, but also on higher levels such as running nodes on various OS's.

Hi all,

I followed all of the steps necessary to redeem my stake through AE, but I am not showing up on the registered list  . My tx id is: 12008247944724463318. Could someone tell me if my stake is confirmed?

Thanks.

@andme: this is the thread with the poll you are looking for:
https://forum.nemcoin.com/ideas/nem-silver-coin-for-all-stakeholders/

So will these silver coins be in addition to the normal stake? So each stakeholder will receive 2,250,000 NEM coins AND 1 NEMSilver asset?

Yes, it is a gift to all nemsters in addition to their 1/4000th of NEM (NEM stake) for waiting so long for launch and to celebrate the birth of the NEW ECONOMY

No worries. I think it's safe to say that we've learned the hard way that even the most basic stuff can't go without saying. We will work on detailed explanations of every feature and some guides on how to do certain things. Right now there's just so much else todo that those things are not a priority.

Please don't quote the trolls. Makes my ignorelist useless 

r u intimating that I'm troll

Embarrassing

Funny, becaus when I had no profile and just reading bitcointalk, i remember that i noticed ur post here in nem.
You sounded so initiate, though u just started! 

he must be a child genius ,i thought, how can I join here ever ,when I'm not a genius like patmast3r

Later I joined .and read a lot: utopianfuture's, dzarmush, zero.. ans others and of course patmast3r's mailings. Learned much, i can say.

When utopianfuture left, then leash was loose.
Aye, Jawohl, Pat, u know what i mean.
There was nothing to hold that barking dog...  aufhalten nicht

aye, nothin but a barking dog ...........
It s high time 2 u  confess that, u 2 Pat. U 2.

[Simakki]

Just registered my stake, NEM looking terrific and easy to download and use. Way better than other coins that i have used and its only BETA!

Hopefully NEM be fast as a lightning. I tried NXT client and it takes too much time to download blockchain,

I can't say that understand most of your post but I'll try to answer it anyway.
I have no idea if you're a troll but you do come accross as one. Maybe the obvious language barrier makes it seem even worse. Also the fact that all your accounts (or what I suspect are also yours) seem to post the same bs so...there's that.

UP never cencorsed me or put a leash on me. It's just the longer the pre-launch phase goes on the more I get frustrated with people and the easier it is for me to say something I shouldn't have. I'm very aware that I have a bit of a temper but that always has been the case and UP never talked with me about that. Think I've gotten better at that recently  

No idea what I'm supposed to confess.

@andme: this is the thread with the poll you are looking for:
https://forum.nemcoin.com/ideas/nem-silver-coin-for-all-stakeholders/

So will these silver coins be in addition to the normal stake? So each stakeholder will receive 2,250,000 NEM coins AND 1 NEMSilver asset?

Yes, it is a gift to all nemsters in addition to their 1/4000th of NEM (NEM stake) for waiting so long for launch and to celebrate the birth of the NEW ECONOMY

and 9 billion total, right?

Is this decision final?

So this silver coin isn't a coin representing x amount of NEM - it's just a silver coin with the words 'New Economy Movement' etched on it?

What's to stop someone copying the design?

Regardless, it's awesome

Guys, where can I get some help with the redemption?

I am stuck at creating a new NEM address, when I try to start the webclient at http://bob.nem.ninja/webstart/ java window pops up for a few seconds then closes. I am on firefox, have tried both 32 and 64bit java versions, tried chrome, tried it on my linux partition, tried it on another computer . Also tried installing the offline client, I get a nice shortcut on the desktop that when started does nothing

Please help.
