lol.
I feel sorry for the guy, but he was asking for it. Jesus christ, that list is painful. This is why IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING YOU SHOULDN'T RUN A MASTER NODE.
Dear computer noob reading this,
Do not buy into DRK to run a swiss cheese master node. Just don't do it.
This is fucking dumb. And it's out of compassion and a desire to see him grow that I say it and refuse to give him any DRK. He needs this pain to teach him the basics. There's no excuse for this.
Seriously,
Humanitee
THIS.
Your money hose will backfire, greedy noobs. Don't do it. This is just plain stupid... I say it out of compassion, with the hope that pain will make him less stupid. If he learns from it, then the price was worth paying.
If you don't understand even one thing on that list, take you masternode down NOW.
