My proposal is that we have Masternodes running p2pool nodes and miners mine on the Masternode network and nowhere else. Solves the 51% threat, eliminates the need for 'enforcing' MN service fees, and ensures decentralisation. 50/50 split between MNs and miners, with miners who leave a balance on the MNP2pool earning a pro-rata cut of the MN reward as well, and meaning that as long as the total MNP2pool node balance is >1000DRK, the MN op can take out some or all of his initial 1000DRK and set up further MNs...

Sounds like a very centralised banking machine much like HSB paying shit low interest rates.

Sounds like you're drunk?

Tell me why solving the 51% / centralisation threat by making miners use p2pool, and having those p2pool nodes be Masternodes is a bad idea. Tell me why providing people who don't have enough DRK to run a Masternode a chance to easily have a share in one is a bad idea. Tell me why having more Masternodes as a result of this, and consequently a more robust network is a bad idea.

it's not a bad idea build a pool or whatever offer it to ppl as an easy,secure,reliable and competitive way to own some coin tax them 2%,3%,5%,10% even 20% if you think you can get it, but don't tell others they cant do it their own way that just makes it nothing more than centralised.

It doesn't make it centralised at all, it just requires everyone to play by the rules, or get off the pitch.
