I like to check the facts, which some of you might have noticed that I am quite keen on doing.

No, I hadn't noticed.

No genuine investor gets their "facts" by soliciting opinions in an ANN thread - at least I don't, so forgive me if I only judge you by my own standards.

P.S. Which "Marley" are you the ghost of ? The dead roofing company or the dead reggae star ?

I always ask around a bit before making a decision on investing, not really to get the "facts" but to get a feel for the community involvement.
If you get a good grasp on how the community interacts with each other and more importantly with new potential investors then you can make a good judgement on if you want to invest or not.

That is true but there is also a clear distinction between someone that is genuinely interested and someone that comes to push an agenda. Specially with an account created just for that purpose, it is really evident.

This is a really welcoming community, always happy to help and answer honest questions.

I would like to clear up some misconceptions:

1) I am not an investor, but someone acting on the behalf of a third party who is;

2) I am not pushing an agenda, but someone who is merely following one. Consider it to be an informal protocol;

3) my prime goal at this juncture is to ascertain the facts;

4) I have been led to believe that it was a community decision to use the word "Dash", so I thought it logical to consult the community as to why, considering the circumstances. I have also sent a private message to Evan Duffield with regards to this, but have so far not received a response. I am not overly concerned about this at the moment since the type of response that I am looking for is a considered one.

In case that answers to my questions might prove difficult for some to provide openly in this forum, I would invite anyone who can throw light on this matter, including the legal justification for the continued use of the name 'Dash', to message me privately. That is where I intend to keep this from now on.

I have become aware that this is quite an emotive topic. I would appeal for calmness to prevail.
