He is one of 10 million + nxt stakeholder so he doesnt really need or want nem stake. It is just a pure act of sabotaging. But I would like to see how good his reasoning is holding up.
I have many friends in next community and some of them holds millions of nxt so his acting is kind of an anomaly. It is kind of dissapointing that he may think he acts in the benefit of nxt.
I don't agree with 2Kool4Skewl . Nem (at least now, even though not originally) will be new code written from scratch. Since it's not Nxt's fork, the developers should get something for their effort. I don't have a problem with that. I just don't think he should have been kicked out for posting something stupid.
He was not kicked out, all he had to do was say, he was interested. His pride got in the way

The man clearly wants to see NEM fail

. Yet he wants a stake, just incase it succeeds

Would you want such a person as a member , still he was given the option to remain a member, simply by saying " interested" .
this issue is becoming a distraction. We should just ignore him.
