You guys here really did become the thing you supposedly hated. A clicky group of lossers desperately trying to pump a coin.
Isn't all the cryptocoin world (including bitcoin) just like that?
The only difference I see: our developers are not trying to pump XEM with wapourware. They can hardly be seen here.
We hope this is because they are developing beautiful features like they already did.
Only time will tell...
the Problem is the whole nem community is snobbing the bitcointalk Forum.. Makoto is traveling Japan to present NEM, but the first crypto Forum gets snobbed.... this People are good developers, but have no idea of Marketing.. Initially the interest in NEM was huge, but now when people think of nem, they think of a third row coin! this image will be difficult to change again!
This place is toxic and full of trolls, NXT are not active much here either.
Jaguar0625 and Thies doesn't talk much or interact much outside of Github (Github is being updated daily).
Makoto1337, Gimre and Bloody Rookiee are definitely accessible.
Who do you think created NEM's subreddit, the voat page and other community initiatives? It wasn't some random coin holder helping out from the goodness of their heart.
Problem isn't the NEM developers or the team - it's just classical case of free rider syndrome among the stakeholders and many of those free riders are probably sockmasters with more XEM than me and others. That's the comedy here - people accusing me of being UtopianFuture and other personalities and saying I have 100 stakes by using cover my ass (yeah I doubt that website worked with Patmast3r's analysis as he was looking at non-IP information). NEM's just cool because it was one of the few coins that wasn't asking you to reverse mortgage your place to buy magical beans (like most crypto in 2013-2015).
