I don´t know what to think of all this...There are some valid points all around. Something to really consider...
But...
It all comes down to...Credits. Loads of credits!
If we wanna re-gain the #1 slot again in a not so distant future...We need to KISS...(Keep It Simple Stupid) We won´t gain ANY members before we approach the masses...We won´t get more credits if we do not maximize our current production...I see lot´s of new members joining with a GPU but crunch " the wrong project" with it...
So to KISS..We need only one thing:
We need to act as a team, and get in touch with ALL members. 13.000+ members should be more than enough - if we just point them!
If all existing members added just 1000 CS to their daily production we would produce 46 Mill + per day!! and 1000 Cs per day is not all that much nowadays!
