forking helped a lot of coins in the past which were accused of false distribution / scam .

If you do not wanna fork that means you agree that kolin and max will hold over 60% of the new solution ?
Ouch this way you can be sure the next solution will be a mess too as we both know kolin gives shit about a coin as long as he can make a quick buck.

The fork would be to kick out all these hidden wallets from kolin and max so you can say that at least 55% of these 60% will be kicked out and that a dumping wouldnt be possible anymore like they did in quark.

Why do you guys think Kolin is so extremly against a hard fork ?Because the coin could loose in faith which doesnt exist (hehe) or because he would loose his hidden wallets and his advantage

Okay, I think I understand how Quarkcoin may benefit from a fork. Suppose that a fork does happen, I can't help but imagine lots of users would be negatively affected by the fork in the same way hidden wallets are. I find it fairly easy to rationalize the need for a fork because of the large wallet holders. Although, you can't demonize all the large wallets together, right? I mean, all of the large wallet holders can't all be in on some sort of quasi-distribution scheme. Maybe some are making an attempt, but I have a hard time believing all of them are to blame. What about the internationally-based QRK market exchanges? Aren't they also included in holding large volumes? I remember when Russia had more public-listed nodes than any other country. Doesn't that mean there should be large wallet holders over there, too? The dynamic has changed. Kolin is just a cancerous entity trying to take advantage where he can, when he can. Sure, there are large holders who are North American continent-based. I just can't imagine this issue being too black/white.

IMHO, I am skeptical of any alternative that changes the current state of things because of the potential for volatility and mass market manipulation. I think our energy is best invested in other forms of improvement upon QRK. Such as, educating people about what cryptocurrencies are in-general. Selling/Buying  goods/services for QRK. Mining QRK with p2pool and running a node. There is so much talk and lots of wild ideas related to forking. Not enough doing.

Edit: two words.
