when did i say that i dumped all of my coins? what incentive would i have to come in here and bitch about something that i have no stake in?

i think what differentiates me from a lot on here is that i AM willing to speak up for what i believe in, no matter who i offend. apologists like you saying things like: "we should be so lucky that they even come here to post at all, most other coins after 6 months don't have that" is pathetic.

you want this coin to succeed? stop apologizing for the devs. i'm not putting words in anyone's mouth, they say they'll deliver X, then they don't. and some of you seem contented to just let it slide over and over.

LOL, talk about having little faith in a developer, is it too much to expect that they can keep THEIR OWN SCHEDULE? "hey guys, we're going to communicate more, release some projects, and make a big splash within 2 weeks" - 1 month ago.

"hey guys, we're making some aquisitions, putting out some fires, shifting some paradigms, revolutionizing outside the box, writing millions of lines of code, that's all bye!"

instead, you get mad at ME for internalizing "writing millions of lines of code" as "they've actually written millions of lines of code", and not "they've appropriated millions of lines of code from other libraries". think you're missing the point much?

i'm no longer swayed by their PR copy, it's purposefully ambiguous, and whenever they get backed into the corner of actually having to release something, they just ignore it. happened multiple times so far, and everyone's given them a pass. what a nice kind and tightly-knit community! letting them disappoint without any backlash, you must all be really scared for your investment if you're not willing to call bullshit bullshit.

So far i see 2 sites, octocoin and octohub, 1 has less info than the OP of an ANN thread, and the other is just a bunch of graphics that are spinning in a circle. am i wrong? is there something else i'm missing? this is the sum total of what we have from them. i say "them" when in reality, have we seen any indication of this? "they" said that octocoin was launched with the whole team in zero-G on a parabolic flight, such a claim! you'd think that they'd have some sort of epic photograph demonstrating their camaraderie, no? I mean it is kinda weird when outrageous claims are made over and over and over without ANYTHING to back them up.

why is it that EVERY single time they've had a chance to show us what's up, all we get is more lip service, more smoke and mirrors. all that's tangible from them in 6 months is a 2 minimal info-graphic websites that look like they're made by 1 person, so far that's all i can see this operation is.

care to prove me wrong?
