Give the network time to stabilize? Is everybody insane? Do give ASIC Miner and company time to keep gobbling up hashrate and then panic when a large entity has amassed a big enough of the network's power.
Hi MadHasher, I understand your frustration and worries regarding this. I just think that it would be beneficial to the community if asic dont just keep being pumped out. But gets released steadily , while giving time to adjust. I know this might be a pipedream and we will of course adjust our policies when the time comes and ask the community to give us feedback.
But it is good to "hope" that this will happen, and that everyone will join in the venture isnt it? hehe
Sorry but that is an idiotic notion. ASICs are way too expensive ATM but it's what the market is princing them at, for the most part. Sell what you can build and let the price stabilize, meanwhile you sell more hardware and only the uninformed, who stop by Block Erupter USB sales, will complain when you manage to drop the price from mass production. Bitcoin wins from hardware getting distributed everywhere, as it was in the beginning.
These new "support the network" arguments seem more from lack of production capacity than anything else...
Hi Madhasher,
Ok you have a point there. Pure volume will eventually bring down the price in asic manufacturing true. I still think. even if the price drops. which it will by quite a bit. I still think it might be wise to give everyone some breathing space. not just give the network time to stabilize, but more importantly to give everyone mining time to see what is happening.Regarding your production capacity remark. If you would like I can order 100's upon 100's of terahash, who knows I might just be able to sell them all by the end of the year. But how is that helping everyone? Instead of having a gradual increase. we just dump everything. I might be wrong or might be thinking about this in an incorrect manner which I do apologize for
But once again. I go to my main point. this thread is designed to gauge the communities feelings towards asics. what units they want and suggestions and feelings towards what "WE" think is the best approach.
Remember what we think is the best approach, might not be the best by any means. but that is where the community jumps in and says. No. rather this way. or that way.
and I have made a note of what you brought up here 
Keep the comments and your suggestions and queries coming.
I like seeing other peoples point of view and then seeing what we can do different
