Agree entirely. The community seems really opposed to even discuss why it felt dirty for aggroed to take a clear no vote single handedly to a yes... Kinda feels patronizing.

Like you say, this particular proposal didn't matter. The fact that aggroed basically did an hour of state radio to push it when he stands to financially benefit does make me more dubious about the future of Splinterlands though, as it should everyone.

What's perhaps more concerning is that aggroed proposed the measure, but never intended to let it not pass. Why then, was it even brought up for governance!? I'd call it treating us like children, but if I let my daughter decide what outfit to wear, I'm not going to tell her to try again until she picks the one I want.

This was a small thing, but the way aggroed handled it between that TH and coming in to turn the vote at the last minute was incredibly concerning, and we're too early in governance to overlook it. Silly me, I had thought the DAO would be a real thing... Not just some marketing farce. Makes me less confident in the token released specifically for sham governance.
