I'm not sure why you feel the need to make another post on this subject other than as opportunity to make money yourself, as I publicly posted about the potential for sale of this account about 3 weeks ago, and you could have provided your opinion on the sale at the time (several people did, and there was discussions back and forth on the pros and cons of accounts being for sale). I'm sure you were aware of my post, since you contacted me about it quite soon afterwards and inquired about buying the account (it seems you misrepresented your interest, but somehow that doesn't surprise me).
For those who never saw the post, here's the original post:

This account certainly has a "real owner", it's me. I put it up for sale because I didn't want the hassle of voting with it. Fortunately, no one bought it, since it's now worth about 7x what I was selling it for at that time. It's still quite a hassle to vote with it, but at this point I'm afraid its worth too much to be able to find a plausible buyer.
@blocktrades Do not make us lose our hope because you guys are our hope in steemit mate. Take your time and do not mind what others say.
over here and offer your perspective on why you were selling your account and why it's a hassle to vote it etc.@blocktrades thank you for this perspective. While I do say there is a danger in selling accounts, I do support your right to do it. I was wondering if you could stop by
You don't owe anyone an explanation or an apology. But by letting us know what's going on you can help inform the debate and frankly, your opinion matters to me in general.
I'm trying to make it clear to the devs here, that with just a few small tweaks they can keep this game fun for all the players, and being a big player on the cusp of making an exit; I think what you have to say would bring a fresh perspective. My post is a bit of a long read, however I tried to keep it informative and entertaining. But I promise to read what you have to say and upvote you with my minnow like powers. :)
i am entitled to disagree with the sale of accounts? my opinion is it has a negative impact on the community as a whole by taking away the very idea of individual influence and unearned influence at that?
Advice is seldom welcome, and those who need it the most, like it the least.
