      Feathercoin ‘The Ferrari of Fiat’ < I Like it :)

      NM ::)
      [/quote]

      The ferrari of crypto you mean?

      The way i see it is at the beginning ftc was a clone of ltc (nothing wrong with that) yet already there have been changes that differentiate it. Look back at it in another year and see how similar the coin is to ltc. I have a feeling they will only have a passing similarity to each other (especially if the hash algorithm gets changed as well).

        By the time we’re done, they’ll be using our Leathercoin to push ideas forward.

          100s of Linux distributions, small incremental changes and experimentation helped it evolve. Certain Linux flavors gained more success than others by the services and support that surrounded the distribution.

          Excellent example. When was the last time an app had 2-6 lines of code changed and then branded as new and spectacular? none, ever. Why? because of the community would have laughed you out the door as a thief and an idiot who brought nothing new to the table. So changing 6 lines of code for feathercoin, and you are surprised by the backlash?

          Had the feathercoin client brought something new to the table and amazing, the backlash would not be there.

            I see you mining on pools, I see you still posting quite a lot on here.

            I guess you’re just cashing in on the failure of feathercoin. I can see no other reason why you’re still bothering with such an abysmal failure of the theft of a concept…

              Oh the irony, CASHING in on failure.

                  New and amazing is a depressingly poor and irrelevant argument.
                  It’s an imaginary Ayn Rand, Willy Wonka universe where everything is new and exciting, like the Love Boat.
                  It’s also pointless because clearly Litecoin no longer gets that backlash, so why should ours?

                  X.org vs X11R6
                  GNU Emacs vs XEmacs
                  Harmony vs QT
                  Status.net vs Twitter
                  pico vs nano

                  The changes are enough to fundamentally change the compatibility of the coin, therefore it is reasonable to change the name.

                      You are right, I am confused. Could you please point out one, just one, app (windows, linux, osx, os/2, freebsd, anything) that had 6-10 lines of code changed, with the author then contending that the app was new and different and re branded it, AND then the community accepted it?

                            No, the question isn’t too difficult, it’s one that’s been addressed already: It doesn’t matter in the slightest if the foundation code for all these coins is the same, as long as what is built on top adds value.

                            You’re making a straw man argument, and it’s not going to get you the answer your looking for.

                              Not at all! I was just following up with his analogy and requesting clarification.

                              It’s a conversation right up until I ask questions that no one has a great (or even subpar, or any at all) answer for, then I am a witless troll because he lacks answers.

                                  Those are not 6-10 lines. They are 6-10 SETTINGS. Huge difference. In the real world those settings make a coin entirely incompatible with another.

                                  I don’t comprehend this superficial idealism for new, new, new. It’s on the Internet. The Internet is not a supermarket. It is a workshop.

                                  If someone wants to work on something, they have to start with something that is close to what they want to do. That means they have to use stuff that’s already out there. Clearly, Bushstar did not want to work alone on it, there OMFGWTFBBQ, he had to release it BEFORE it was so PRECIOUSLY,

                                    Those are not 6-10 lines. They are 6-10 SETTINGS. Huge difference. In the real world those settings make a coin entirely incompatible with another.

                                    I don’t comprehend this superficial idealism for new, new, new. It’s on the Internet. The Internet is not a supermarket. It is a workshop.

                                    If someone wants to work on something, they have to start with something that is close to what they want to do. That means they have to use stuff that’s already out there. Clearly, Bushstar did not want to work alone on it, there OMFGWTFBBQ, he had to release it BEFORE it was so PRECIOUSLY,

                                      @randomdef: You also did not answer a question asked of you in this thread [url=http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=1857.30]http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=1857.30[/url] about what constructive changes you would make to reward miners.

                                      It may be difficult to accept that others find this scam/copy/theft/crap coin has value, but hey, PT Barnum said there was one born every minute. Aren’t you glad you’re not one of them?

                                        I dont get this whole argument. If you wish to build a car you start with wheels, a frame, and an engine. Why build from the ground up when you can just start with this base (litecoin code.) Its the added features (that may not have been added or even thought up yet) that differentiate this coin from litecoin. If you honestly think that feathercoin is a pointless clone then mine litecoin. Nobody really cares which coin you choose to mine. The reason that people are here is they believe in the coin and that it is going to evolve into something totally different then litecoin.

                                        It seems your big issue is that changes to the coin are being released after the coin was made public not before. I ask what does it matter when things are implemented?

                                          I actually did, before you asked. Feel free to go back through my posts.

                                          You guys are WIZARDS at evading direct questions, shifting left and right, but that elephant remains.

                                            no, not at all. I just asked for clarification on his linux analogy.
