Arcanin you and the rest shouldn't hide behind "the coin we're forking has this bug in the main tree since april 16, 2014"
In their defence, John Doe isn't likely to be running Ubuntu or Gentoo so doubt he'll be seeing bugs like this ;-) Not to mention they found it during Beta and seem to have fixed it in a number of hours.....
I would however agree that the transaction fees stuff needs a better explanation for the layman.
