Hard to disagree with what djslick is saying. Doesn’t prove anything one way or the other, but I don’t think he’s wrong. I thought the same thing when I heard the millions of lines of code thing. Sounded absurd.

But maybe it’s legit and bholzer’s explanation is right. Even if so, the devs here don’t get the benefit of the doubt when making new claims, at least not in my book. They need to earn the benefit of the doubt. And they haven’t. I don't think they understand that.

It's not like people that have recently discovered 888 are going to come check out this thread, see your huge negative rants, and decide to join this community and support this coin.

If the devs want there to not be negativity in the thread, they need to do something about it. Not say something reassuring for the umpteenth time. They’re in the process of pissing away this once very positive community.

i'll agree with you on that. the devs interaction, even from one dev, on a normal basis could fix quite a bit. not making timelines and promises and breaking them and disappearing would solve a lot of this. a screen shot of the apps would solve a lot of this.

how about this though, anyone ever stopped to think maybe the devs do this on purpose? i'm not going to go into any reasons why devs would do this but it's a fairly common practice and investment strategy. plenty of other coins have had devs suppress before.
