You just missed one important thing @lukestokes: @abit and @smooth were here from the beginning and they have contributed to this platform more than a lot of other witnesses. I'm not defending anybody, but only because they try something different that a lot of people disagree with, that doesn't mean they don't deserve to be on the list of 19 witnesses.
I know there are more people who want to be on that list, but they have to have to earn our trust and it needs time for that.
I will not remove them, and trust me I'm not doing it for and upvote from them. You can take a look at my posts to see how many times I get upvotes from them and you can count them :D
I like your post, but, I felt that I had to share this with you and the other users.

I'm not forgetting that, and I tried hard not to imply an opinion either way as far as if they should be in the top 19. My point was more about how many people have opinions for and against actions of various whales in the system and a good way to voice those views is with witness votes.
I agree, but there are a lot of new users that they don't know to vote for witnesses or they vote them only to get an upvote from them, and they miss the important thing. They should think first about this platform and what's best for it, then they should think about to these great people that are here and engage with them, and only then, maybe they should think about money!
