He's just getting the warm bitshares welcome
He's posting as a newbie, signed up to the forum first time today. That is deceitful, and does not allow us to evaluate his previous postings for intentions, helpfulness, philosophical leanings, etc.
And without first bouncing his ideas off of the community, he is "looking for help creating the logo and a web page for Sparkle" on the main Discussion page of the Bitsharestalk forum at a time when we are attempting to concentrate community members efforts and attention on BTS marketing.
There is a sub Board called: Third Party DACs
Not everyone who posts on the Bitsharestalk.org forum has the best for the BitShares community as his motivation.
You assume I have posted here before without any evidence that I am anything more than a lurker.
I have a large stake in BTS and noticed there was a market segment that wasn't being met and that BTS could not meet so I thought I would launch a product to fill the void and allow AGS/PTS holders to capture what ever value the market places on a POW version of BTS.
If POW is doomed to fail then this project is no threat to BTS. I happen to think that POW is here for a while and that a POW version of BTS properly promoted to the mining faithful will gain a relatively high market cap.
I was confused by onceuponatime's post too. He made assumption's about you he couldn't verify and judged you based on that.
Here's my fundamental frustration. There are some here who approach every outside project from the perspective that they are fundamentally flawed both economically and technologically, the products of hard work like media exposure are the consequences of special NWO connections, and when a project is radically more successful than yours it's just somehow because the world isn't enlightened enough or just all marketing.
A lot of you have invested a huge amount of time and money into the idea of bitshares. Are you really happy with the progress that has been made, the ad hoc decision making process, and the lack of effective communication? Maybe there is a reason why bitshares doesn't get as much media exposure as the 2.0s and it doesn't involve a conspiracy?
I agree that many in here are arrogant and harsh to people with a non bitshares perspective and I think that is totally unproductive for the bitshares community because it does not allow a good content focused discussion (instead the discussions become personal like this one)!
I would encourage you (charles) to not generalize the attitude of some forum members onto "the community". If it are some that behave like you described say it so ("some on this forum").
I just received a PM:
onceuponatime,
You have received a warning for insulting other users in this thread https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=11634.msg153163#msg153163 . Regardless of what happened, please abide to the forum rules and be nice to one another.
Regards,
The BitShares Forum Team.

Since I am absolutely without an inkling of how I have transgressed forum rules, I will have to make this my last post (I was unable to respond to the PM - apparently "BitShares Forum" doesn't accept replies ).
I appreciate it that some moderator has taken the initiative to send you that message. Your rude and personally insulting behavior certainly is not in the interest of the community because it detracts the attention of people away from the content and onto personal and moral issues as you can see.
Give us your previous username(s) on this forum or get lost.
If you don't think that was rude, I don't know what is. You could have just said: In case you have been active on this forum before it would help to know your user name so I can make more sense of where your wanna go with this.
DPOS is the blood, sweat, toil, and tears that forged bitshares. "Introduce?" No, I wont let myself be introduced.. I won't shake your hand, I won't look you in the eye... if this was the inquisition, you'd be burned at the stake.
Wow... DPOS is just as much a religion as POW.
We make a great mistake if we see the materilalization of bitshares technology (DPOS, BitAssets etc.) as an ultimate truth. They are a means to an end and should be treated like this!
It is the mistake that is killing the Bitcoin community atm. They stop thinking rationally and ahead and instead have "hope" in a person (satoshi) and made a religion of what that prophet/satoshi has "given to them" (POW). Instead be friendly to those that "are against your religion" and appreciate what you can learn from their different perspective!On the content
I love the OP's proposal and think it brings GREAT VALUE to the community because it will introduce many ideas bitshares has come up with to the Bitcoin/POW community!
