I'm not exactly sure whet there was to talk about exactly,.

getting all of the pools in cooperation for one would have been one. in fact, someone did mention that very issue in the thread before the fork.

We were losing like 35% of network hash per day. PER DAY. Does you think catcoin would have survived another week at that rate?

if you put it that way, yes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeno%27s_paradoxes#Paradoxes_of_Motion

Hindsight is 20-20 but you guys are delusional if you think that immediate action wasn't necessary....THE. FORK. WAS. YESTERDAY. CALM. DOWN.

so let me put it into context: you say that there's nothing to freak out about because the fork was yesterday, and to calm down and not rush to judgement.

all i'm saying is the coin was about a week old when the first fork was attempted, and for us to calm down and discuss it, and not rush to act.

we agree that we needed to calm down, but many of us wanted to have a calm discussion BEFORE THE FORK, NOT AFTER.

now, we all have to pick up the pieces of a clusterfuck.

Kalus, you've been complaining about the fork since the beginning. We get your stance on it, it's also done already. Even you admitted the fork was necessary. What good would have standing around talking about it done. We issued the fork made the pools and exchanges aware and executed. A small oversight was made and a 51% happen. Unfortunately, shit happens.

Dogecoin made their source available for a week (compared to just 24H for us) before the fork, and still FIFTY PERCENT of their hash didn't update their pools, daemons or nodes. Now they have a vicious fork they're unlikely to recover from.

Our pools all updated, and we did not fork (to my knowledge) because of out of date pools or nodes. Sure it wasn't perfect, but god damn it, this coin is still alive and kicking, lets continue making it the best damn altcoin out there, and stop bitching at each other about what-ifs and should-haves.
