Since this XT drama began, I was wondering about Gavins desperate efford to force bigger blocksize, even after he obv. realized, that there is a strong resistance against this fork. I mean, he could have simply stepped back and wait for the right time to come up with his idea again. When the current blocksize really turns out to be problematic, then he would have a majority and a consensus.

Instead he is knowingly dividing/weakening the Bitcoin community (incl. himself) for his idea.

This behaviour doesn't seem appropriate to me. Is there something more behind it, than just a larger blocksize?

The only "desperation" I'm seeing is people like you trying to stifle discussion and debate.

What, by starting a thread? That's kind of like the opposite of stifling debate, it's almost as if it's promoting or inviting debate Roll Eyes

One thing that I take a great deal of comfort from from this XT nonsense; almost none of the so-called supporters are credible members of the forum, most come across as the usual sock puppets. I suspect that very low numbers of real people actually support GavinMikeCoin.

If it was a thread to discuss the pros and cons of an 8mb blocksize, then maybe (but we have enough of those already). Instead, this is another attempt at character assassination because people would rather talk about the personalities involved than the actual issues. By all means keep shifting the argument when you hit a wall, people aren't blind, they do notice and it doesn't do your cause any favours.

Saying that Mike Hearn cannot be trusted isn't shifting the argument, it is the argument
