I agree context matters (I am also in favor of the SPS & the EIP). To be honest I am tired of the complaints, most of them come from people that are used to getting their rewards without bringing any monetary value to the steem token. I am not going to name anyone but several authors that I followed started to bitch a couple of months ago about the platform but when you look at their wallets they cashed out tens of thousands worth of value (in USD). I say good riddance to them.
I did not invest as much as you did but what I did purshase was what I could allow myself given my financial situation. I still believe that as long as we have a core group of people that are willing to work to improve this place we will see it reflected in the price down the road. It could turn out to be a mistake but nothing is guaranteed in life.
I'm tired of the complaints as well. One of the things that really frustrates me is an entitlement mentality. Maybe my responses to @nonameslefttouse in the comments here were not as nice as they could be, but I was picking up on that same attitude of complaining mixed with "I've got it all figured out and everything would be better if people would just listen to me" which, to me, smells like entitlement and gets under my skin.
I'm more interested in people building stuff which creates value, not in complaints or mere opinions.
I've got it all figured out and everything would be better if people would just listen to me
You're a poor judge of character. I thought I might have some answers. Thought it would be okay to share, and to come and talk. My frustrations stem from encounters like this, where someone like you feels it okay to throw me under the bus. You don't like complaining and opinions, as you offer your opinion and complain about me. If I said you were being disrespectful again, would you once again deny it, or would you, this time, be able to see yourself?
Yes, but context matters and most people don't realize that.

Thanks for taking another shot at me here.
