Anyone can say anything they want about who did what to who when and why. None of that has any relation to the fact that the banned txids were legitimately mined by anyone's definition and not allowing the miners to have what is rightfully theirs (earned with legitimate GPU hashpower by any definition) is actual stealing of currency (not just metaphorical).
Please remember - just because you type something in bold, it doesn't make it true!
The Earth is flat!Adolf Hitler was not a mass-murdering fuck-head!See what I mean?
Those coins were not "legitimately mined by anyone's definition". In fact, the only people claiming they were legitimately mined are people from the KMD community. It was a bug - are you still trying to claim that it wasn't a bug, and was therefore desired behaviour? It was exploited for personal gain - are you still trying to claim that these actions were morally and ethically the "right" thing to do?
I am amazed (and more than a little disappointed) that almost 3 weeks after the original attack, these people are still trying to defend their actions.
For those of you not familiar with the terminology of programming (from Wikipedia): "A software bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways". Will you admit that both (attacks | hacks | legitimate mining activities) exploited a bug in the SafeCoin code?
