Sección 5
from Bitcoin White Paper
5. Network
The steps to run the network are as follows:
1) New transactions are broadcast to all nodes.
2) Each node collects new transactions into a block.
3) Each node works on finding a difficult proof-of-work for its block.
4) When a node finds a proof-of-work, it broadcasts the block to all nodes.
5) Nodes accept the block only if all transactions in it are valid and not already spent.
6) Nodes express their acceptance of the block by working on creating the next block in the chain, using the hash of the accepted block as the previous hash.
Nodes always consider the longest chain to be the correct one and will keep working on extending it. If two nodes broadcast different versions of the next block simultaneously, some nodes may receive one or the other first. In that case, they work on the first one they received, but save the other branch in case it becomes longer. The tie will be broken when the next proof- of-work is found and one branch becomes longer; the nodes that were working on the other branch will then switch to the longer one.
New transaction broadcasts do not necessarily need to reach all nodes. As long as they reach many nodes, they will get into a block before long. Block broadcasts are also tolerant of dropped messages. If a node does not receive a block, it will request it when it receives the next block and realizes it missed one

It's very simple.
in my original webpage and all of the documentation that I issued when I was acting as Satoshi I very succinctly stated that you have to turn on the generation process to be a node .
Nodes create blocks
Nodes are rewarded for creating blocks
so, yes as the creator of the system I get to define the definitions and no matter how many disingenuous, fraudulent, lying lawyers are supporting these people the fact remains that there is evidence that nodes create blocks and that people like Eyre are lying scumbags who should not be allowed to be lawyers because they don't even check what their clients fraudulently misrepresented and they don't seem to care

Let me explain something to everyone about bitcoin. The protocol is fixed. There is a unilateral contract that was set in 2009 when the product was released. That contract has no provision for change. Rather, it has a promise of stability. While some of the codes that are currently disabled will not be re-enabled anytime soon others will be. None of this will impact any existing transaction now all that may exist in the future. But, you have no guarantee or promise of when some of the other codes that are not currently used will be implemented and you shouldn’t be developing anything that is based on them.
The operation of nodes is very simply defined in overview in section 5 of my White Paper. This is not negotiable. It does not matter that you don’t like it. It does not matter if you think it can be optimised in a better way or improved. That is it. Simplicity is actually a good thing in complex systems.
There is no consensus on block cap. Honestly, I’m getting tired of this and it should be what can be handled by the majority of nodes. That is by computational power. If the size of the blocks is too large for a node, this is capitalism and that node goes out of business. If you want to run a rasberrypie go to BTC.
In time... It will be an INTERESTING year
I won't say more for the moment

It does not matter that 1 million home users find an error. They can’t do anything about it. The only way to report an error and reject the block is to find a new block.
Consequently, the entire claim that anything other than a node defined in the White Paper in section 5 that creates blocks matters is false.
It is not just misleading.
The claim being presented that UASF nodes have any power in any Blockchain system is misrepresenting the nature of the system as far as to even go into fraudulent misrepresentation, and it is bordering on criminal fraud. Those people promoting this are deceiving investors.
