But I'm glad you called yourself an attacker. We do seem to be making progress.

Come on man, you know that attack-the-attacker is a term of art and does not imply malice (quite the contrary) on the part of the person being subjected to it. It's an intimidation tactic used to suppress criticism.

Cut out the silly snipes at Monero and me already. It's pathetic.

It really is shameful for a lead dev to be undertaking, sorry, leading such a smear campaign.

Lead devs lead by example, and this is the shameful example you choose to lead with.

There is nothing shameful about standing up to scams and telling it like it. The problem with the altcoin community isn't the people like me do it, it's that people generally don't do it enough. That is shameful.

I'm proud of the example I set.

And to think, I actually defended you in the Darkcoin thread.

From my experience with seeing smooth in various threads, he strikes me as being an asset to any project. But I'll defer to the views of those here who have seen most of his posts.

Maybe you should consider that your first impression may have been correct and reasoning now on the basis of "smooth criticizes Dash therefore there must be something wrong with smooth (and Monero)" is not being intellectually honest. Because it is pretty clear that is exactly what you are doing.
