You know, I believe the witness issue is a really serious one - one that requires full loyalty to the steemit blockchain, and IMHO I feel a criterion the should require to give higher chances of becoming a witness should be amount of time the person has powered down.

I have humbly voted and also spread the word by resteeming.
Thanks a lot.This news has long been over due. I've heard a lot of steemians talk about witness, and I was wondering why @blockbrothers never said anything about it. I read the announcement post and found out that @exyle has never powered down. That is exemplary. That is a person with faith in this steemit movement. Thanks a lot.
