I can't help myself. I have to give you an upvote. You are ruthless in what appears to be in an extremely positive way. You never give up and you still have a good attitude about it. It is at worst impressive and at best admiral.
I want to be consistent when I can. I want to be true to myself on chain. I will also use my stake as I wish.
I must be true to myself even if I am overreacting and even if you think I being stupid.
I want to be able to use my stake as I wish. I don't think I can right now. I think people create a lot of social pressure outside of the boundaries of the protocol to try to tell people what to do. You did not do this to me. That is rare here right now.
I want that to change. I want to use my stake as I wish. And the only way for that to happen is for me to do it.
@azircon you are big stakeholder and I will show you deference. My intrusion on your personal feud is inappropriate. I have interacted with you before. I have the track record on chain for you to at least know I can be sincere if I think something is important.
I will remove my upvote if you wish @azircon because that is what I want to do with my stake if you think I am out line.
If I was going to buy an option, I would buy one that says @azircon is correct in this feud and @alexvan is wrong. I do not know the history. I do not know @alexvan. I do not know @azircon. And we are not friends.
I am being pretentious by acting like I understand this situation. I honestly do not care about the history told from a persons point of view. History is only told by the winners except on HIVE.
I am an Options trader. @Azircon understands me. He knows what I am trying to do. And he does know a part of me is actually serious about all this. And he does know I am not trying to do anything. I am trusting the process and I want to experience where this goes. The reality is @Azircon may not know anything about me. Maybe this is all in my head. But it is not a bad guess if he dabbles in futures. I like to make bold guesses. And I like to have a good time. I am writing this because I really do care about HIVE. Even if I am being silly.
I want to create opportunities even if it could get me in trouble. Even if it bothers people. I am being true to myself and I am communicating this on chain and not on a different form of social media.
I have invested in HIVE. I am a part of the process whether I like it or not. I am not sure if I like this. I know that is a weird thing to say.
What I write here will never go away and this is my story. And I want @azircon to be a part of it. That is why I show him deference. And as far as I am concerned, he will always have my respect.
@alexvan you are ruthless and do not give up. If you really think about the kind of person @azircon is based on his actions on chain (not what anyone says and not what you think in your head), he may appreciate your ruthlessness. He may appreciate this situation. You may be able to use it to get out of the situation you are in. Who knows?
But only you @alexvan can make that decision and your stake weight does matter. And there is nothing me or anyone else can do to change that.
If people don't want stake weight to matter, they would need the stake to make that happen in the first place. That is not what HIVE is. That is not how this works. And I do not think it is "fair." Just predictable.
Yes, no reason upvote Alex.
It is mostly low effort repetitive posts that no one reads and no engagement. It does not merit any rewards. Notice, we have been able to cut taskmaster off rewards, thanks to Marky. More work along this line need to be done from the community.
He said to you yesterday, most of his interaction at hive are automated, which is also something I do not prefer. So it is mostly an clash of ideology.
There are a lot of people at hive who are here for money, and personal gain. There is nothing wrong with that, but as long as it doesn't interfere with greater good.
Alex and lots of people like that do not follow the principle that here we can only succeed if we can work towards personal goal AND team goals. Since they don't understand that I consider them 'dead weight'. I am actively trying to get rid of this type of people for ages with moderate success.
However, I think this is old news, and if I were you, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
PS: go light on the tag please :) one is enough.
Makes sense. Thank you!
Well, I'm doing what I like. There are no rules and boundaries in here, just common sense. If someone tries to enforce something, it goes against the freedom of the chain.
As the feud is old, there have been always different excuses for the downvotes, from abuse, scammer, where everything in time was proven on the contrary, to low effort, and no engagement, where people are afraid to comment, due to retaliation. Well, everyone in here knows if they had an argument with the other individual, they got flagged. Especially in discord, where he does not articulate his views. But, this is another story.
I don't mind his downvotes, I just do it as a reciprocity. I don't beg for upvotes, and just do my stuff. In the end, I've brought many more people in here, I've been to Hivefest a couple of times, on the last one got sponsored the ticket, due to a contest in here, and to the first I was, I sponsored the tickets to some. And on the edition I wasn't present, I've donated to the travel fund, to help people get there. It is not about the money in the end, and yes, I would use the funds that I have as I wish.
And I think, that the person I have the feud here, is only for personal gain, and probably ego feeding. I'm a free man, and will not bow to someone's falsely build ego, just by stake owning. There are different ways of building relationships, and mine is over communication.
In the end, I feel sorry for him, as you must imagine, that he muted me 3 years ago, and downvotes everything, so he needs to click somewhere on a bookmark, or type my account in the bar, to be able to downvote. That might show some deeper issues in his behaviour, that I can't judge.
And again, do as you please with the downvotes and upvotes. As I have this issue now with this person, I sadly don't downvote scammers, spammers, and abusers, which I should do.
You do you, universe will do universe.
No problem from my end.
Universe is good, thank you, been a blessing lately.
Hope your health is getting better, without any sarcasm.
