<p>[QUOTE="fiatfiasco, post: 1901955, member: 67957"]Hopefully there won't be the usual chirping of "harassment!" or "youre being mean!" with this comment as one of the points of this forum is the pursuit of knowledge which may come from constructive criticism. With that said, here is mine:</p><p>1) Naming it the "Future of Cointalk" is a bit misleading and a gross overstatement.</p><p>2) Self promotion, or discussing/creating something that can eventually create income from hyping it up on the forum I believe is a forum violation. I am surprised this slipped the mods. I believe it has because we are being told Peter supports it. I am curious if it is adhering or developing into what was actually or allegedly discussed.</p><p>3) I have to question a "University" whose creator even agrees is not an expert. I really see this as trying to get forum experts to agree to do the teaching legwork while you slowroll this into a paying service/education from which you reap some financial reward. If your heart was as noble as you are trying to come off, you would not allude to the idea that money is going to eventually be a factor so that you can say in hindsight that something "this big" (the future of cointalk!) could be managed/supported for free and would have to have some type of monetary medium involved.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will not be joining. Just as I learned in college, I very seldom find someone <i>soooo </i>much smarter than myself, who knows so much about something that they could teach it to me than, lets say, a book, or this very forum itself. Again, hopefully this is not taken as an insult as it is just my analysis and resulting opinion that doesn't name-call, curse, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
