I see it like this:
1. If what bholzer wrote is true, he has likely worked really hard on behalf of octocoin, and so, he worked really hard on behalf of us, the people in this community.
2. One problem is, we dont know if what he said is true.
3. Another problem is, even if it is true this community is upset about developer communication. We are upset that issues with the coin were not shared with us.
So if #1 is true, I would imagine that getting all the crap in this thread is no fun for bholzer. What an unpleasant reward for all his work!
But #2 and #3 are also important.
My point is, its important to understand all sides to this. In my opinion, everyone may have just cause to be upset and angry.
As others have mentioned, whats most important now is where things go from here. I thought BeardedCouncil made a good offer to help communicate with the community better. I hope those in the know take him up on it.
