What was the nail in coffin for me with MINT was the fact they put a super shitty logo on the mintcoin subreddit when there were much better ones. I find it fishy that won the community vote when almost everyone complained about it after it was chosen and nothing changed.
Heard of something called democracy?
There had been a vote. The chosen logo won by a large majority. It was a two-round system, using a reverse-indirect voting (the opposite of US presidential election): first-round by professional designers to create shortlist; second round everyone could vote.

Intellectual honesty would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

And there's the fact MINT dev keeps saying mintcoin has nothing to do with Mintpal. Sorry don't believe that for various reasons.
What could prove you right or wrong? Absolutely nothing save official documents (like dev's ID and Mintpal's registration papers)? What's the point arguing on something that cannot be changed, mmh?

That's the most interesting part of your comment, indeed. I'd like everyone to give me thoughts about the differences you see between BlackCoin, MintCoin and GhostCoin. Not only the technological differences but how it would impact.
MintCoin ends up being a middle term between BlackCoin and GhostCoin but it also has non-technological specifities.

Comparing Black, Mint and Ghost would be interesting, don't you think so?
(I hold no Ghost and forgot to backup my poorly-funded Blackcoin wallet when I formatted my harddrive to install Manjaro Linux)
