Let us concentrate:

First off, we are all adults here. We all have made a decision to invest in certain coins, be'd this BlackCoin, MintCoin, WhiteCoin or any other Coin. I welcome a healthy discussion about why one should invest (or not) in a coin, but there are limits as to what you should do & say about other coins.

Every coin has it's fanatics, it's bagholders and it's people with ulterior motives. Yes there are people that just want to get WhiteCoin fixed to make sure they can exit their bag. There are also people that spread misinformation about other coins in the hope that these people will invest in BlackCoin. I would say: let everyone make their own decision. It has absolutely no use to attack other coins on their own thread. Yes, i know that there are fanatics from other coins doing it here but luckily BTCTalk has an ignore button. USE IT. And stop going to Coin threads and spreading misinformation there. If you want a healthy discussion with other coins: then do this, but stop with the blant trolling and fudding of other coins.

The thing is, i'm putting a massive amount of hours into BlackCoin making sure it succeeds. And i'm not the only one. We have a dedicated team that is growing by the week, people concentrating on specific countries, people concentrating on specific services and so on. Each and everytime some one fuds another thread the name of BlackCoin will be viewed bad by someone. And that has no use for neither you or me. If you want to point out something about another coin, sure, go for it, but don't drag the name of BlackCoin in your discussion.

Soepkip, I'm a big fan of BC, in fact I'm pretty much all in having sold up most of my other crypto in order to get hold of as much as I can. I love the community support and the crazy smart devs.

But I have to say the shenanigans of some senior BC people over in the WC IRC channels in the last 24hours has left a bitter taste in my mouth. If our aim is to be a serious alternative to BTC and to be taken seriously by merchants etc then this kind of nonsense makes us look like petulant bullies and does nothing to further our cause. I'm no fan of copy and paste imitation but surely we're confident enough in our coin and our community to let our advantages speak for themselves?

Just my $.02

IMO the main problem isn't that WC is a copy. It's a rip-off and scam, and as they tried to market themselves as the BC brother coin or "the next BC" that can probably discredit BC if we just let it happen w/o pointing out what WC really is on every occasion...
I've never been in on of their channels or chats and never will be, but it surely won't just ignore their spam here and let it look like a legit post for everyone who does not have those guys on ignore or comes here for the first time.

Agreed
