I hate the search option in Visual Studio....said it found it in only one file and I confirmed, yes, that particular variable name is mentioned in chainparams.cpp and is not merely "pchMessage" any longer. I've also been getting confused as to who was advocating what. I thought you modified something other than the pchmessage part. I didn't realize you had effectively forked the network. With the Flying Spaghetti Monster willing, so far, I'm close to the beta/release (i guess) of my wallet. I keep noticing small details I'm messing up is all.
Basically, all of the other clients with the same Network ID as Noodlyappendagecoin which had been connecting to the original peer swarm no longer connect with the v0.8.6.2 client.
The other changes you see below with exception of Remove Legacy DNS Seeds and Remove pnSeed Array are merely cosmetic.
The DNS Seeds and pnSeed Array were removed so that the v0.8.6.2 node would not attempt to reach old Litecoin addresses hard-coded into the wallet.
The whole point of it is to prevent unintentional forks.
