@meno I really appreciate your input here. You seem to know much more than I know and I honour and respect that fact. Maybe I am making to much noise here, and might need to step back and think again.
Maybe I overrated Steem blockchain and the witnesses. To me it's all amateurism but nothing. At least the top 20 witnesses should really care how the investors and the competitors would think about themselves as a reflection of Steem blockchain. That's how they are respecting everyone. Top 20 witnesses are not just normal Steemians aren't they. It is becoming clearer that maybe Steem witness is not what I want to be. will think about quitting.
if they leave it open, they will get spammed for requests.
How come this kind of excuses could be acceptable for the top 20 representatives of DPOS.
Checking out the comment from @aggroed on this post, it would be pointless attending the chat. I really do not enjoy any aggressive and emotional discussion.
Thanks again for your comment, although I disagree with some of your words, it is really fruitful discussion with you. I will definitely consider voting you if you become a witness later.
Regards
I appreciate your kind reply @asbear, I would however encourage you to reconsider attending the panel this weekend. I'm willing to stick my neck out there and say that even in disagreements, you won't be attacked and your point of view will be discussed as adults.
The witnesses who participate of MSP/Palnet without exception really are wonderful people, and to be honest with you if you perceived aggression from @aggroed's words. It might be because he is a passionate man and nothing else.
If you ask me, I think the conversation that has sprouted in your comment section has been extremely productive. Yes, it there is some coffee grounds at the bottom of the cup, but in many ways you have effectively made enough noise as to direct at least partially this weekend's conversation.
At the expense of possibly offending someone I will speculate that some of the defensive reactions from some of the witnesses on this post, come as some residual bad taste from a recent post made by Bernie, in which he was in his usual ways, very "unique" very Bernie.
In any case, I sincerely hope you come to the panel. You can listen in, if you don't feel like saying anything, don't, but you will hands down feel the love and passion we all have for this community and the unquestionable commitment to betterment of Steem.
All the best brother
Thanks, you are a really good man. :)
It's a bank holiday weekend in the UK so I HAVE TO go out with my wife all day unfortunately (?) but I will try to listen to the recording later.
Cheers!
