So, 500Crypto, your first post in the EDU forum and you're recommending changing everything? This does not support this community's active interests nor does it help educators who have already committed to EDU as deployed. Go to a Linux forum and start talking about changing the entire kernel and see where that gets you. See where that gets Linux if people listen. 

1. Fork discussions, like logo changes, usually end up as an upheaval of activity followed by devs staying the course (go to every coin's 26th page you will see this). Let's not waste our own time, you have things to do, we have things to do.

2. People joining this forum for the first time, while you are welcome, let's cut out the "I want to change the curtains" fancy decorator circlejerk. You are welcome to join the devchat here: https://gitte[Suspicious link removed]/edumoto/educoin where you can make a compelling case.

3. The absolute best way to use this forum is to post issues and solutions, share strategies for development, and also plans for making EDU the best that it can be. Bitcointalk is at its best when people do that instead of lurking to see if there are any catfights to watch over popcorn or letting newbies run amok spouting "fork, fork, fork" like kids with light sabers.



I was not proposing a change, rather posing food for thought and even suggesting an idea. Yes I am new to educoin, but does that mean I should hold back my thoughts? I am sorry, I didnt come to cause upheaval in this community, I actually like how young and focused it is. I believe there is a lot of potential for this coin given the massive niche of education and I support how you are focused on the right things.  I just put out my two cents - may be this has been discussed before, pardon me for not checking back. Your response answers my question, i.e. it doesn't make sense to consider algo change - fair enough. The extra attack on my 'newness' here is not really necessary, unless that is the vibe you want to create for those who are considering joining the community. Sorry mate. Keep doing the good work though.
