Sorry, but where the f*ck do you have this sh*t from with "only pool otpimizations" from?
We have multiple devs working fulltime on it: fluffypony, tewinget, mikezackles, tacotime (50%) and th rest of the team is putting every second of their free time into the project. That's a bit more than just one guy.
Not to mention the CryptoNote developers, Bytecoin developers, and Boolberry developers.

In 5 or more years you will have 1TB ssd on... mobile phones running nodes...
See you then. Meanwhile, Darkcoin will become the go to privacy-centric in several months. There are already solid ideas on how to make unmasking transactions through node collusion exceedingly difficult. Impractical even for an entity that controls half the nodes. So once that is done, what exactly does CN have to offer?
How would it become exceedingly difficult? AFAIK right now it can be done by any masternode.

Even if it's impossible, the Darksend privacy is still fundamentally flawed, see http://www.scribd.com/doc/227369807/Bitcoin-Coinjoin-Not-Anonymous-v01 and http://www.coinjoinsudoku.com/advisory/.

Monero has impractical working anonymity now.
Fixed that for you. Until I don't read about "wait for your transaction to be included guys, everything is fine!". Until it doesn't take an exorbitant amount of space to run a node. Darksend has had some big changes recently. There is never a point where a single masternode knows both the sender and recipient. By using multiple nodes, the practicality of node collusion can be eliminated.
The "wait for your transaction to be included guys, everything is fine!" issue is more of an issue with Darkcoin as pointed out above. With Monero it is a small temporary delay only caused with a sudden increase in transactions. 1 GB is not an "exorbitant amount of space". How is it not practical just because it causes relatively more blockchain bloat than Bitcoin forks? I'm sure Darksend causes just as much or more bloat than ring signatures.

Monero supporters are almost as bad as the religious cuckoos that deny evolution.
English as a second language or cognitive deficiency? Hmm, hard to tell. Either way, the idea behind a discussion board is for posts to be coherent.
Any non-morons want to criticize Darkcoin? I'm waiting.

You're clearly a troll judging by your personal attacks. Hint: this is not how you get people to respect your arguments.
