With all due respect Oogone,

As already mentioned, there were fewer than 25 active Sprouts community members when my team and I decided to take over the Sprouts development role because Mr. Eggman, the original developer, left Sprouts for dead, in favour of his next currency, the 888 coin. Few were interested in Sprouts until we came along.

It could be argued that as we had amassed over 300 community members at the time you decided to jump ship because you weren't happy with the premine, that you were taking advantage of our efforts.

The use of the word 'steal' implies we're doing something illegal or unethical and as we're not doing anything illegal and our intentions all along, have been ethical and also, people are free thinking, the use of the word is misplaced and misleading.

We have over 5,000 community members, the vast majority of whom, are adults and presumably free thinking. They have all read our goals, plans, methods and proposals. If any are unhappy with what they've read, they will decide to leave our community as is their right.

The fact that since the 300 community members, (around the time you jumped ship) we have amassed 4,700 more community members and each of those is acutely aware of what Sprouts+, now Auxilium, intends to do and how we're going to do it, suggests the vast majority disagree with your views.

You knew our intentions at the time you decided to form a new Sprouts team and that all those interested in following Auxilium, would jump the Sprouts ship when the time came.

Look on the bright side, now that you've formed the Sprouts team, I wouldn't be surprised if some of our 5,000 members continue holding an amount of Sprouts as well as swapping to Auxilium. So, in effect, we've likely helped build your community base rather than tear it down, as you suggest is the case.

Please cease the strongly worded and misleading posts or as per the warning we issued your team a few days ago, we will take the matter further.

The Auxilium Team
