Hi guys,

We don't need to wait for anyone to "take over" Karma. Actually it will not happen. I wont try to explain why, because I know you can understand why if you really consider everything that's involved in doing so.

What we need is to be organized. As I have said may times over before. When we, who hold Karma, become organized then we can safely and progressively move forward.

Those who are still interested and care should post something.

No other way around it.

Good Karma everyone.

im interested in the forward direction of karma ...

in all fairness - there are a number of things that NEED to be taken into account with what you are referring to ...

costs - control - authority - budget ...

i know - i have done it before ... and once again in all fairness - karma cannot be placed in the authority of the karma holders ( aka the community ) for two reasons ...

first ... ANYONE and EVERYONE who holds karma would not only have a say - but also have authority over what goes into / what is produced / what is coded / what is paid for / etc ...

second ... who would police this? ... who would coordinate this? ... who would PAY for this? ...

the coin needs not only a functional system to drive the development AND the coin forward - but also a LEAD to drive the system and keep it stable ...

time - effort - and energy needs to be expended when keeping things running for the coin - and the community ... this all costs money ( fiat ) and requires leadership to be responsible for the continuation of such a system ...

ultimately - i cannot see any other way than for a leader ( or team ) to take control of the code direction - and setup a new thread - a new website - a new structure - with new nodes - and a new vision ...

this CANNOT be done by a whole community ... as it will COST the community and require the ENTIRE community to have a say in ALL that gets done ...

how will that work? ... how can that get done? ... to vote for every line of code that gets changed? ... or every image on the website to authorized by the community? ...

i believe if this coin is to survive - let alone succeed - it needs a full redirection and rebase ... this requires a takeover and requires someone ( or a team ) to take responsibility of the ENTIRE system - from code to website ... from nodes to bct discussion thread ...

but - as with my advice early on ( many pages back ) on hardforking the coin to 'fix' the issue that it currently has with the blockchain - what i say can fall on deaf ears or it can be picked apart and discussed ...

eitherway - there is nothing being done currently ... unless someone out there is working in the background and not coming forward ...
