Hell, I like a fight as much as the next guy.

Your first response to me, that one I had to say was well thought out. And dare I say it? Pedantic.

I didn't say the premine wasn't a concern. I said, and still say, that if the community can raise this (or any other) coin to real-world levels, then any initial malfeasance on the part of the original devs becomes a bit of interesting history. The coin itself has merit, well outside of day trading.

As for the low blow... I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm not. You are a troll. You throw out the line, drag it along and see what bites. Trolls aren't always wrong, but they are always attention whores.

In my arrogant opinion, DOGE is the worst coin to ever hit the market by multiple degrees. It's a sad joke with no real planning behind it, no real world application ever thought of, and backed by the mentality of the teenybopper. I hated teenagers when I was one, and the passage of decades hasn't softened my opinion.

But you know what? It's successful. So my arrogant opinion, from a market standpoint, is wrong. This coin has an enthusiastic community with a lot of good ideas. Why bitch about one flaw while ignoring the strengths? So you think the devs are shady. I've no opinion on that. I do have an opinion on the coin itself.

As for pedantry being "insufferable", well, you are welcome to your opinion. The authors who have stood the test of time were pedants. All of them. Why? Because common speech is BORING.
