Continuing my darkcoin community research...



...using the forum extraction tool I am developing...
...here is how the title of this [ANN] thread changed over time, starting from day 1: January 18, 2014 (When darkcoin wasn't even called darkcoin yet...  Grin) until today.



If this has any value for you, and if you like to see more, consider a donation to help me further develop my tools: XtAdMy5nSxArut6rKKLQXxm84rpJNipXib


What is the next thing you want to see?

1) Do you want to know who of all the darkcoin users swears the most (using words like f**k etc..) then vote by donating any amount to this address:

2) If you would like to see a word cloud of all the comments evan duffield ever made, vote by donating to this address:

(I will eventually fulfill both tasks if they reach 5 DRK each, otherwise just the one that has more DRK)

Have fun.

LOL, I never saw the second topic title in March... that shit is funny. It's basically an advertisement that the miner (that you created) for X11 (also of your own creation) sucks so badly that it uses about half the available capabilities of a GPU, if you assume the then-current Scrypt GPU implementation used 100%. Since that's unlikely, you're actually broadcasting to everyone that you did so badly creating a miner for your own PoW that you managed to use LESS than half the compute capability of your target hardware!

... Come to think of it, that's so bad you have to wonder if it wasn't intentional. After all, that's on the level of being unable to walk and talk at the same time.

Maybe I have to explain how I extract those past ANN Thread titles, because there isn't really a database storing them, so I pretty much have to make "educated guesses".
What I do is, I read every post of every user, and since the ANN Thread title in that moment becomes also the title of each post, I can then derive based on how many users used a specific ANN Title, what the ANN title used to be that day.
The problem is, users can edit their post title, and every user who quotes this user will also aquire and repost their edited thread title.
So I tried to filter out all the obvious crap, and all the ANN titles in my list have been posted/quoted by atleast 50-100 people each time, but still, especially the ANN title that you mentioned could be a fake one.
(Meaning it was never put officialy on the ANN thread title by the admin)

EDIT: best thing to do is probably provide the RAW data I aquired. Then people can make their own assessment.
The list works like this, first number is amount of posts that have this ANN title, then the first time this title appeared in a post, then the title itself.
There are some hilarious one liners in there by obvious trolls, lol:
