-argentina-marketing.matt608: 369M for his 100% delegate. Its hopeless, they save more in toilet paper than BitUSD.
-marketing.methodx: 355M votes - didnt he get bored and move onto his other business interests?
-market.cn.group101: 613M votes - they are "evangelizing" in China. The member that proposed that delegate has a grand total of 8 posts https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,13226.0.html He obviously got elected and pissed off.

Are we all just too apathetic to fire people?

Also, do delegates have to reapply for their 100% positions in BTS 2.0, so we can finally trim some fat?

In 2.0 no workers will be making any BTS until we elect them to do a project.  So all of these delegates people are bitching about will be making 0 again unless they get re-elected to do something (and I expect people are not going to want to vote for marketing delegates, because the expectation is marketers can make money off referrals if they do well).

We're probably going to be seeing the core dev team proposals get elected and get BTS, and probably a few other dev projects, and not much else.  I expect inflation rate to drop some.

So... You see no use for them in a few months as they continue to underproduce now, yet you let them stay on collecting +4K BTS per day diluting your share and poisoning the Bitshares image? Sound logic there buddy.  Vote them out now and show people how the democracy works. Wait, I forgot the regular BTS holder has no voting power to do shit unless he spends money buying more BTS to outweigh the counter vote the Dev group controls. Have we really come so far from bitcoin where you have to spend money on mining equipment to get any say? Look at the collusion between the large mining farms over XT.

You are hilarious with your mental gymnastics.

We should just disable the self-moderation rules

That usually ends with someone drawing a dick on your face in permanent marker.   </bada bing>

not really. if you feel a thread should be deleted you can report and request it.

I am liking you more and more these days. Even though you get trigger happy moving threads from the "general discussion", it usually seems justified in context with the sub boards. I feel a lot of stuff you and Vikram move could be quite alright staying in GD as it is the most frequented sub. But you have proved to be quite consistent. Good job!

Brian Page might be interested.

I didn't do it.
@newmine can you create this thread again and we will continue discussion?

I didn't create the original thread. I just responded to Empirical1.2's comment. When I came here to find the thread and see what comments took place next, my comment was gone from my history. I searched for Empiricals comment and gone too.

I just thought it would be funny if "if" someone was deleting threads and posts while all the theymos accusation of censorship are going on in the BTC community over XT.

This is hilarious.

Share dropping on Brownie.PTS is brilliant!

The less you give to the masses and the more you give to the circlejerk could only help identabit or Maker spread to the masses.  Kinda of like a massive mail campaign only sending ads to people who live on East 20th streets across the U.S., or only to those who have XX in their email address.

Great plan!

I would even go as far as stating that brownie.pts holders are most active in the community

You can't claim that, there will be active members whom BM doesn't appreciate.
......

What is EVM?

I am one of those.  Errr, was one of those. I lost all desire to even point out the errors of your ways and decided to let the cards fall where they may. Chatting with ABL a few weeks back, someone who didn't care but had nothing but incentive to see this project succeed, made me realize this project was dead in the water.

I have been running the BTS 0.9.1 for several weeks without a problem. Yesterday my laptop shut down unexpectedly.

 When I restarted the computer the BitShares wallet wouldn't launch. I would enter my password and click on "unlock" and the screen would flash the waiting dots for a second, and then stop. Press "unlock" again, same thing.

So I uninstalled 0.9.1 and installed 0.9.2

Now when I enter my password and click on "unlock" the waiting screen with flasing dots stays on for a long time, then goes off. The task manager shows me that my memory usage keeps going up rapidly while the dots are showing, then memory usage increase slows right down when they disappear. Clicking on "unlock" again brings the dots back and memory usage keeps increasing.

I then tried deleting all the folders in my "appdata" "roaming"  "bitshares" except for wallets. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled 0.9.2

Same results. Can't open the wallet.  Repeated the previous steps, but same result.

I am using a laptop with Windows 7  with 16GB RAM  and 64-bit operating system and a solid state hard drive.

I have never had problems loading BitShares new releases on this computer before now.

Any suggestions?

Needs more grape Koolaid. 

Try deleting your wallet. Hopefully you backed it up or saved the privatekeys. This was the only way I was able to get in. Now unfortunately, it's taken 2 days to regenerate keys and I still don't have my balance. I can't wait for Bitshares 2.0  if you think Bitshares 0.9.2 was a piece of shit after 20 months of development,wait till you get a load of 2.0 after only 5 months of development.  It will be one of the greatest shits ever. Bigger than Bono.

"Proposals".....

Do t forget that CNX gets to distribute Bitshares code for a profit to outside parties, competitors, or anyone who wants to "plug in" in anyway, from 3rd party exchanges to payment processors. How else will the Devs get paid?

Are you saying that competitors might gain an advandage? If yes then why on some threads you wanted all of our "competitors" to have access to the BitShares code without geting permision from our devs? aren't you contradicting yourself? or it's just your casual FUDing?

How's that BTS price going?
