Hi everyone,
I never posted before, but I think so it's the moment that any supporter, miner, trader, holder of EMC2 should talk.
So first, thanks to the devs, the foundation and to anyone who is spreading the word for EMC2. A lot of great job has been done.
I'm a gpu miner, a rig tinker. I almost quit of CC after the tsunami of badnews, exchange scams, junkcoins and other bs, I thought that everything at CC starts to be hopeless and meaningless. Just a virtual ponzi casino.
But 6 weeks ago I discovered EMC2 and I thought "finally a CC with a PURPOSE!!!". Not just a another coin to donate, but a tool itself to provide the research community a source of direct funding. So some hashing and holding EMC2.
Now may be it's time to stepforward to try to strenght the community.
Imho I believe one of the key adds to the coin and to the foundation will be to open an official forum to organize the community... together we'll support the devs, we'll help the foundation, we'll expand and we'll keep the FUD out of the coin.
If we sum all our efforts may be we can achive the purpose that motivated us to develop, spread, mine, trade and donate EMC2. May be we're just a bunch of fools scattered around the globe, but a lot of meaning things started like that.
So +1 to anything to that direction, for me is worth to try.
All hands on deck!!!

In terms of the community aspect outside of bitcoin talk. We do have an official subreddit and I would like more activity there. It would probably be the best place since we have an active tipbot there. I should note, I am still running a little giveaway about posting there, including what direction we should go as a team.
With that being said, an official forum may help, I am not sure if we are at that point, and I am also not sure if it has any advantage over a subreddit. The other question is maintenance, adminstration and upkeep of such a place. With that being said, I will present it as a potential item on the development task list item.
