Like I said idiotic and this will be detrimental...way to fuck it up guys Darkcoin was something great

That is the point that has me upset the most, to make such a drastic(and frankly stupid) change such as this without even having a vote by the darkcoin community/foundation members. Way to go with the "decentralized" currency, Evan. Congrats with your new found dictatorship.

You have to remember Evan has a history of making decisions without votes. Wasn't it just a few short months back when he offered to buy ShadowCash without the community aware :

Quote
The total market cap of ShadowCash will be calculated (say for example $600,000), at which point that amount as a percentage of Darkcoin will be created (say for example $16,000,000). $600000/$16000000 will represent an additional 3.75% of Darkcoins market cap. At the merging date, Darkcoin’s market cap will be extended 3.75% to give the ShadowCash users the same value they had in ShadowCash.

Yep, he decided he could just change the rules and "add more coins". Wait a second, maybe he was really trying to by the ShadowCash name instead of the developers?!?! I guess digital cash "Dash" is somewhat the same worse similar.

If so, then he needs to stop trying to run Darkcoin like it's his company where he makes all the decisions, it's a "decentralized currency" for god sakes.

+10000

evan make a Dark Coin, but Dark Coin live untill today because of community, evan should make a vote,...without vote and voice of community coin will be death

I think is impossible to community vote on something like this really, think about it. You vote in the market, if you think Darkcoin rebranding to a more friendly brand will facilitate its adoption and help it acquire a larger market share you vote by Buying. If you think it is better to stay as Darkcoin for future adoption and potential you vote by selling.   Voting will take some time.  

I am looking forward to see Evan's proposed solution to the scalability issue, people completely forgot about that on the middle of the branding discussion.

Go read Evan's announcement, then read the last 50 pages and take some time to make up your own mind.
