You don't need to know about this post if you know what you think about the situation. That was my whole reason for posting it.
I agree that there was obviously a feud which was not my point of writing. Nor was, who was in the right or in the wrong.
I agree that @azircon was not right, and there are many things he did wrong in my opinion... such as downvoting the @proofofbrainio account to zero. He was also not entirely wrong. He wrote a post about POB that was not seen on POB as he was muted. It deserved to be seen.
The news of there being a mute option was what concerned me and this was the reason for writing this piece.
One argument that I hadn't considered was the whale that could wave his stake around and hijack a tribe if they so pleased.
DPoS is an interesting beast. Centralized tribe leadership fixes some of the issues of "too much power" as long as the "owner" doesn't abuse the extra power bestowed upon them.
Thank you for your response, I appreciate it.

I can't believe this. Hijack? With 400 tokens?
I heard mentioning this nonsence several times, from other ppl too.
AZ purchased 400 POB and it already made a noticeable spike in price.
One funny dude weeks ago tried to buy smth like 2000 POB, and it cleared the whole supply completely. Price went up 6x in a minute, up to 10 HIVE.
I am REGUALLRY buying POB on open market, every day purchasing between 500 and 1500 new POB tokens. I'm doing this for maybe 6-7 weeks now, EVERY SINGLE DAY, and yet I'm at <50% from tribe founder's stake.
That means I am still far far away from the levels, which would empower me to hijack this tribe.
(Not that I have any desire to do it)
I think this particular "MUTE" action was executed in the worst possible way - wrong reasoning, wrong justification, wrong timing. It made to this tribe a lot more BAD than GOOD.

I agree with you sir,muting someone because he used his stake for whatever reasons he desires is a kind of dictatorship and it should be discouraged..
totally!

I agree, I don't dispute that. Az shouldn't have been muted and the posting from Luclin was crap. But Az' entry into PoB was not for the community but to remove upvotes. Agree that the account was getting way to many rewards.
But I talk to more broader issues.
My friend, you are one of the best curators and engage fairly, not everyone does.
I have seen Az post spam and get rewarded $90 even by whales.
My discussion is we need a better way to stop reward abuse.

sholdn't someoone be able to power up TO dispute distribution if they disagree? Is that not one of the reasons to power up? He should be free to do so.
fair point @onealfa.
