No fun mining if you're trying to stake ESP. I still get dozens of orphans and no actual reward in 24 hours; something has to be done about this (I am running the latest wallet, with the bootstrap reloaded).
As has been said several times here and on Discord, you should not try to stake until the forking problems have been solved.
When would be the coins from the free gift likely to be distributed?
WTF happens here the last days/weeks?
I have no f*ing idea, lol.

Oh btw., when will the ICO end?

Just thinking, uhm maybe it would be cool to have a cryptocurrency forum that requires a fee to register? Like $50 USD, so that spammers and idiots will have to stay out.
