The key is to have as much redundancy as possible.
That's why I cringe when I hear smug masternode holders talk down to miners...
It would be like me trying to get rid of the bacteria in my gut, not realizing that they help me digest food and that I will die without them.

Smug? I mined my first Masternode and bought the rest all the way up to 0.019. If miners whine that Masternodes are 'too profitable,' nobody is stopping them selling some GPU's and buying a Masternode too. They'd also save on electricity!  Grin

I am questioning the 80/20 split because I think Masternodes bring more to the table than miners do, that's all.

What table are you even talking about. I wasn't aware there is a table. We have nothing yet with darkcoin. We need adoption, we need to prove ourselves.
We need to become the best security experts of the world (regarding server security), etc... when we reach that point I will accept that there is a "table".  Grin

Are you joking? Anonymous transactions, forthcoming InstanTX, there's the table. What did miners have to do with that? You know, the whole point of Darkcoin?

We will see. Just don't talk down to those gut bacterias man, because we absolutely NEED them.

I'm not talking down to anyone, I'm asking miners to come up with sensible arguments as to why they are four times as valuable as Masternodes to the coin.

First look into the mirror and ask yourself, what sensible arguments do you have that masternodes should recieve EVEN MORE darkcoins than they already do?
You already expressed a view that you start doubting that the job of a miner is at all valuable. So isn't this discussion only going to end to your satisfaction if miners get no reward at all?
Are you even talking about sharing? Or more about taking away from someone you now deem a "useless eater"?

edit: 6am for me, time for bed... thanks for the debate. Smiley
I love it.
