May I ask why do you and by extension some other members of Monero spend so much time in other altcoin threads? Wouldn't the time be better spent coding and enhancing Monero?
I spend a lot of time reading (less posting) other coin's threads. It is usually a good idea to know what your competition is doing.
I rarely if ever post about Monero on the BBR thread (or other coin threads) except in direct response when others make incorrect or misleading comments I feel are due a response.
I occasionally post here about other issues such as the design of the PoW, the effect of optimized miners generally on a coin, trading markets, etc. because, aside from being part of the Monero team (and long before being part of the Monero team) I happen to be interested in the design, deployment, and trading of crypto-currencies, and further always interested in improving my understanding of these issue by way of intelligent discussion. Any such posts are my personal opinions.
Constructive posts by anyone are appreciated here. Smooth has remained neutral in his posts and I appreciate his feedback.
Thank you for this feedback btc-mike.
