I was reading over the previous forum and found this interesting post of interest made by Gldcoin (original developer). I'm posting it for posterity and historical record.

All,
I had to go dark for a few days, to avoid the hard fork being leaked any more than it has, took down the repo temporarily etc. I have instructed Cryptsy to install the update, so I am now making this public.
I have posted the links in the original thread, but made no mention of what it actually was until now.
The Binaries are here:

INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Backup your wallet! File>Backup Wallet
2) Add this into your config file:
addnode=72.11.149.185
addnode=207.12.89.2
addnode=208.115.109.157
addnode=80.229.2.127
3) Install the update (replace gldcoin-qt.exe OR install using the installer)
4) Start gldcoin-qt (or daemon etc)
5) It will NOT sync until the next block is mined. Once the next block after running it is mined, it will sync.
6) DO NOT ever run an older version of this software as it will corrupt your wallet!!! Be sure its backed up.
At block 21,000, the fork will commence, difficulty will change around every 126 blocks.
Please notify any GLDcoin pool operator of this update.
Comments and views are welcomed.
