Which point is that? That people will be left stranded because it takes a month to download what amounts to a software update? Either your connection is horribly slow, or I'm forced to assume you're just FUDding.

You're joking right? If you think that everyone is in the position to upgrade or is aware of the current situation then we have no reasons to talk about. Here's a small example and I'll leave it at that:

I'm the owner of Lauda Dice, a very good and popular Dice site. Lauda is currently sick and has no idea what's going on in the Bitcoin ecosystem. Hard fork happens before Lauda recovers and leaves his service website broken.

Even deploying soft forks takes time, with hard forks it is much worse.

In teh hospital, incommunicado for a month? And your dice site is on autopilot? It runs itself?
Frankly, sounds like something I should be reading in Scam Accusations, and laughing my ass off.
And no one tells you? Because, presumably, no one uses it?

Let's see... An unatended dice site loses a few days' worth of revenues, or I give up on Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System...
It's a toughy, I'll grant you that...

jk, not tough at all. Pay more attention to your shitty gambling site. Not my fault you're sick/lazy, this isn't some Nanny State commie kindergarten, where everything stops to let the slowest/weakest catch up. Buck up, Bucko.
