What is the recommended way to backup wallets?

i guess u just go and copy dem wallets from  path  they r in

[choochimil]

Yup, I did that from username/nem/ncc

I just thought I read somewhere that there was a problem with backing up within the client. Humm

NEM Update

We've launched and things are slowly coming together. As you can see, we are working on multiple fronts and have finally finished our 1st NEM update after the launch.

We hope you will enjoy it and will help us move forward stronger and faster.

Progress and Utility of NEM

Thank you,
The NEM Team

Sorry if I'm slow, but is this the big news that was coming in the next 1-2 days #soon? Or is there another announcement coming today or tomorrow?

A : Hay, nember! Will you die or vote for nem?
B : Die!
A : What?....Do you mean... die for nem?
B : No!
A : Die!....after voting.

Three ways of voting in Cryptsy, world largest altcoin exchange.
1. 1 free vote for user.
2. 5 votes per 1 Cryptsypoint.
3. 1 vote per sending 0.0002 BTC to following address
     19ronM2nLWw1fMadBC1JoTJ2vvAt4ciBZp

Let's go to www.cryptsy.com/coinvotes/ to start Nem rocket!

Voting is for shitcoins.  Assuming NEM is as popular as people seem to think it is, cryptsy will add it to get in on the volume action.

I believe many exchange will add Nem soon or someday.
Voting is for making it "earlier".
It is important for a newly starting coin like Nem.
The sooner, the better!

It would just be enough if the default configuration were set up to use remote NIS and not showing some abilities up by default (it makes bloody f...ng user disoriented and overloaded by huge amount of informations being shown). E. G. the harvesting ability doesnt need to be at main page, its not so important ability for normal user and it could be in its own cathegory at left side.
OF course the security is important (against rogue NIS possibility).

Another notices:

- remove the annoying popping of NIS changing sometimes color from orange to green while synchronization and spamming while working (win client)
- debug the harvesting process
- add a clear possibility to watch (from any wallet if being installed at more places) if the account is (anywhere) harvesting or not and add a green / red button that it really harvest (any kind of confirmation from the whole network, i havent found any block last 24 hours and i cant say if its done by a poor luck or just by harvesting not running in reality)
- better explanation what NIS and NCC is and what it does

These are all good points. The usability is still very rough for NCC.

0.01 btc bounty to whoever will help me get this shit working without just sending me to official guide or w/e

It's not that hard. The only other person I know who had trouble like this was JL777.

Its not that hard, but i still have no idea what was the problem.

I gave up trying and just moved the client to the another pc and it worked there.

So whatever the problem was, it could very well happen to someone else in the future. And as i've said before - the whole thing is about 10x more user unfriendly compared to btc or other alts.

Sure you can just label anyone who had/have problems with it retarded and lazy, but its probably not the most optimal approach.

we have barely launched a week... you may be right.. but you need to take into consideration how stable the network is AT launch compared to the vast majority of alts at their launch. stable and secure network is more important than an easy to use client.. no point it being so easy to use a 5 year old could use if its not secure and the network is hanging together by a thread..

I think NEM has easily the most user friendly client I've encountered in crypto. Very easy to install (at least as a standalone) and the user interface hasn't got too many buttons to try. Everything simply just works, and in addition looks neat too. It clearly is a product that could be very well used by the ordinary people already.

From what I can gather the installer works well too. It's just MAC users that seem to have problems. That's what happens when none of the devs have a MAC

For me the the experience with installer vs Webstart was like day and night. The only downside is that there is no auto-update right now (Webstart did that for you).

I have a Mac and have no problems with either standalone or the installer.

We need the global commodity and raw exchange at which the goods limited in the nature would be on sale for XEM. There real oil with real delivery, the real market of seeds without GMO has to be on sale, real sugar, real salt, real water, and all that belongs to food and to the values limited in the nature. For fiat candy wrappers of XEM it is better not to trade. Let's build the real market of the goods limited in the world for XEM to build.

[makoto1337]

There is a prize waiting for person that'll find it.

I hope the prize will be handed over by a sexy girl in mini-bikini, not by the devs?

It turns out we do not need now exchangers will. And Fiat also do not need to be. Need Commodity Exchange and all we will get there. No more candy wrappers. Now the question is: Who would be willing to sell their products out there on the Commodity Exchange? We need real farmers who are ready to move to the XEM in the calculations for their meat, milk, eggs, and so on. Let's start with the principal - with food and water. And then we begin to develop the markets of electronics and other things. The first thing to price tags in XEM limited natural resources. Should rely on it rather than just wrappers Rockefellers and Rothschilds have gathered once again to make the world poor, the collapse of all wrappers in the world, for the sake of itself only of course. These people will never lose its status is not always so are the richest in the world. The bottom line is that they own something that is limited in quantity and it is the planet's resources. We need to configure them similarly XEM markets for scarce resources rather than wrappers, which exist today, tomorrow they will not quite, and the next day they start new again and will head to fool people. We must be on the XEM in pairs with XEM limited natural resources. The only way something happens in contrast to the scenario with these paper wrappers, which is infinite.

How can you check if your account still has delegated harvesting running when your wallet is closed? Yesterday I setup delegated harvesting on a remote NIS and started harvesting, but today when I opened my wallet again the option button in my wallet is showing "start delegated harvesting", so some time after I logged out of my wallet the harvesting stopped. If the remote NIS gets restarted do you need to re-start the harvesting option in the wallet?

We do have an idea that can enable this!

makoto1337 -

what problem does NEM solve for people?

Money/value can be seen as a way of quantizing life, because we spend our limited time and energy in exchange for money.

NEM is putting control of value into the hands of regular people. Instead of trusting others to control the value for you, you can control value storage and transfer yourself.

But that isn't all.
With things like NEM smart property tiles and business rules, people will be able to take their value further and build new connections between the physical and digital world. They will be able to control information and knowledge transfer with others and create new governance systems. This will solve problems people have such as sub-optimal distribution of resources, poor governance, and centralization of power. By empowering people, we can make every individual life truly matter and help people to make the most of their short time on this planet.

Guys, we really need your help to get things going. Please vote for NEM: NEM Community Challenge.

And I need my NEM-stake.

Me too. And an answer from makoto in PM would be nice too.

There was a bug that affected some nodes and they shut down.  Not sure if that was it or not.  Devs already fixed it and if you upgrade to the new version it will be fine.  

As far as delegated harvesting goes.  There are two things.

1) Activate delegated harversting:  You will do this only once and pay a small fee.  I think maybe 6 XEM
2) Start delegated harvesting: That will make the actual harvesting process start and you can now earn fees.

Step 1 is only done once per life time of the account.  Step 2 needs to be done each time your restart NEM.

another article about nem.

http://www.newswire.com/press-release/after-more-than-a-year-under-development-next-generation

They mentioned test-driven development. I'm curious why it didn't work against that "/shutdown" bug.

I don't think NEM was developed test-driven. The devs wrote a fuckload of unit-tests but not before the implementation of the functionality.
Could be wrong.

Crypti released DPOS. Maybe you can be "helpfull" there ?
