I think you read into coincidences a bit too much, my experience with the corrupt toxic few controlling Hive are along GP side in his ear yet he is not swayed by them and will infact help sort out any problem with Hivewatchers if your experience was similar to mine where I am banned from that HW discord server. Just reach out to him directly with concerns and he will address them professionally. The large component of the problem I think you missed and can be found by digging further into others reports of similar actions by these individuals. I have been bully downvoted by this group of control freaks for several years now with constant libel still happening off chain throughout discord servers and more. Hive is just like the real world with some toxic people, they can't censor us, just correct some rewards and if we don't like it we can power up or move on right? Personally would love to see @kennyskitchen idea of rewards moving off Hive to the Layer 2 outposts making Hive an actual chain and not a blog site comparable to steemit and blurt. !PIMP
