When I was big into Cannabiscoin (I still think Cann will pump like mad when the dev shows how many growers are backing the coin.....and for the record I hold 0 cann at the moment, lol), there was a lot of feuding between Cannabiscoin and Maryjanecoin. Granted there were some very good reasons for the feuding, but nonetheless MJ fudders would flood the Cann channel and then Cann posters would go to the MJ channel and FUD over there. It was really ridiculous!
So in the end i decided to buy both coins, even though I CLEARLY liked Cann more and CLEARLY the ethics of the CANN team far surpassed the ethics of MJcoin. But I figured overall we were on the same team (kind of) and I figured as long as I held both coins I could stand on the sidelines and root for both of them.
In the end I unfortunately came to the conclusion that the MaryJane dev was a lazy, uniterested POS and I told him off just before dumping his coin:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=793704.msg11147662#msg11147662But the point is, for many months I held both CANN and MaryJ and it was nice because I was able to sit on the sidelines and root for both of them.
Where I'm going with this is that from where I stand, we are on the same team as Viral and I believe that when Viral goes to Bittrex, many people are going to learn about SMAC for the first time.
So whatever you think of Bobsurplus or Adam or anyone else over there, it seems to me that both SMAC and Viral would benefit more from having a symbiotic relationship rather than an adversarial one.
Obviously I am loyal to SMAC and I believe in this project and will defend it to anyone that tries to talk smac (lol), but I really don't think SMAC needs to succeed at the expense of Viral or visa versa. I think in the next few weeks/months there is a good chance that Viral and SMAC could be the top 2 coins at Bittrex with many of the same people invested in both.
Ok, I've talked enough. That's all I have to say on the topic

This is exactly it. Bitcointalk is a cancer on the crypto community, it's a haven for scum. I am heavily invested in SMAC, I am also heavily invested in Viral (1.2BTC crowdfunder). I think the business model is great for both, nobody is pissing on anybody else's shoes except you Bob. SMAC has done and is continuing to do what it has promised, I have been staking like a bitch (except for the past few days
) and have been loving it. I have been staking Viral too like a bitch. Just fuck off Bob, there is no need to troll. SmAC is good, Viral is good. That's capitalism.
seriously, fuck off.
