And we're back to the "update overdue" place again. This is really quite frustrating and although the product might still be on the way, it does not appear that the OP places a high priority/value on keeping the Dash community informed or even having much of a relationship with the Dash...

The number he said was 75%, but no one has actually proposed that and I highly doubt that MNOs would do that, especially not right from the beginning. It would probably be something closer to 5% for an initial project. The other proposals like dash aerosports appear to be quite popular and there...

75% of the total budget might be a stretch lol, although @dashdisciple did suggest starting out with as little as $100k which would be less than 5% of the budget. I have no qualms about using google or facebook,...etc. It's just the reality of how things are done. We have already funded and...

The best companies in the business would not be spending enormous sums of money on this if the hard data did not back up that it actually works and has positive ROI, even though everybody always says/thinks that they never click on ads and are not influenced by ads.

It's true, I keep hearing the "We shouldn't do marketing until Evolution" from people but then the MNOs keep passing marketing proposals. Is there a reason we are investing in marketing before Evolution, but only the less efficient marketing? To be honest I was waiting for the Core Team...

I'm not really following this... Who would be doing the education / seminars and how would they get paid? Would this be for-profit? How are you going to get people in the door? I could picture a venue maybe only for special events/conferences but there are many (probably cheaper and more...

I agree that right now, the forum is best. Crossposting/linking the forum update on dashcentral (as a comment on the original proposal discussion) can be helpful too. Slack only to notify/point to the update if you want

Permabans aren't the only option. There are also temp bans, thread locks and deletions. I don't really care how it gets done as long as moderators can agree on some reasonable boundaries and then enforce them

I don't think that's really the point though. Are we going to have common sense forum rules and enforce them, or not? Everybody else accepts the fact that if a topic stops having activity in it then it means people are done talking about it, and thread bumping should be done sparingly and only...

I don't actually have much of an opinion on this. If there is a marketing organization that submits a proposal to Dash, and if I think the total value of their efforts will exceed the amount requested, then I would vote for it. I don't really care whether the organization itself is...

Agree with this. It is already in the wallet's best interest to add Dash support for the same reason they are planning to add other coins out of their own pocket. I might support funding if there were special perks thrown in for Dash that are not going to be available to other coins.

Multisig could be used but even if you use multisig, a contract can bind the escrow party to govern when they can sign to release the funds,...etc

Yes, exactly. The escrow agent does not even have to be in the same jurisdiction. An enforceable contract can govern the release of funds

What places are you referring to where individuals can't even have contractual agreements? As a general rule I don't think it is a good idea to make agreements where all the money is paid up front for a service, with no recourse at all if the service is not delivered or not delivered on time...

I'm not sure about decentralizing the sporks themselves, but I would definitely be in favor of giving the Masternodes control over who has the keys to them, so that the situation can be remedied quickly in the event that the keys are leaked to a malicious actor or if the current spork key...

No, it isn't important to inform the community when somebody votes or changes their vote in a forum poll which is not even part of our governance. If somebody feels strongly about something or if they think it is important and worth bringing to other people's attention then they will actually...

. What do you mean by that? It sounds to me like it would be limited to only good, agreeable options...

One additional vote in the poll is not a good justification for bumping a 3-5 month old thread. This vote history thing is getting ridiculous... @tungfa @aleix

This is part of why we need to move away from the pay and pray and more towards legal contracts with a legal entity. I'm not questioning the proposer's intentions at this point, but in most other professional environments, the employer has much more leverage in situations like this than the...

I think this is another case where the purest intentions don't pan out well in reality. I really don't think the Dash network should be picking and choosing which charitable causes to donate to, unless it is part of a broader business reason, like the money from the crypto show sponsorship also...
