Can tell I've done similar coin just for fun and learning new and it's still alive and fun to keep services up around it.
Once I tried to support one kind of "learn-new-coin" at bitcointalk forums but the developer was not interested to do anything else than release a working, for purpose badly cloned source.
Your ethics make me want to support you.
Bawaler, what type of a coin did you make, and would do same if you were doing it again, please?
And, the badly cloned one you describe, what type was that?
