I'm interested...may be that NXT with a fair distribution (and cleaned up code) may end up taking off.

In that case you should check out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=422129.0

OMFG ! The IPO scams are multiplying exponentially ! Shocked

but still, better the other ones than Carlos/FrictionlessCoin/Solracx imo, because here chance of success equals zero

+1.
I'm not too keen on clone coins, they only serve to dilute the market, confuse real investors and allow scammers to operate.
Innovation is good, competition is good.....even if you are competing with something I've invested in.

Having said that, the only NXT clone I have any real problems with is nex, and that is purely because of FrictionlessCoin/solracx/whoever.

Who is really bad at reading his own thread, among his other issues. There i was, giving him the benefit of the doubt for a change, and all we get back from him is a load of bull as he talks to himself:

..... projects of his/her/them, that all seem to follow roughly the same pattern:

Storms into someone elses party with no beer. Or girls.
Demand to be allowed to DJ, while stealing all the beer and annoying everyone.
Fucks up his DJ set, says that the decks* were rubbish.
Storms out, stealing the decks and more beer on the way.
Says it is all your fault for having a shit party.
Leaves alone, you never see your decks again...or the beer.

Having said that, FC is incredibly annoying, but is he really an outright scam artist ?
I estimate that he's got 8-12 human investors (not counting sock puppets/himself) so far. That'll net him maybe 10-20,000 NXT, not counting lucky88888 who claims to have lost 9995 NXT by using the nex client.

Hmmmm......that's about 1-2 BTC, seems like a lot of work and hassle for not much return

NameCoin are down 122 NMC (I think) which is......0.8 BTC. Big time scams these are not.

Maybe he's just not very good at crypto, or playing with others, obviously.

So has he been up to any real thievery or is it purely the result of a big mouth and incompetence?
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect

*Decks, for anyone over 70, are turntables/record players.

So, I'm now forced to conclude that he is a outright scam artist, and should be treated as such. Gave him a chance, but he's just not smart enough to shut up, get out and cut his losses

Lets move on to hypocrisy:

FC thinks NXT distribution is unfair, 73 founders got it all initially.
FC is solracx.
solracx has most of the Zenith coin. (or approximately 50%)
Fair distribution ftw !

Anyhow, the man is an ...... (insert epithet here)...and I do feel slightly sorry for anyone who invests with him.
Still, no-one can say they weren't warned, and I do look forward to personally pointing and laughing at various people as the nex project falls apart over the next few weeks.

Shall we start a thread in scam accusations?
