RE: The Answer is Always the Same: Personal Responsibility
What's happening now is much bigger than our personal beefs with one another. I can tell you right now I've clashed with Luke. It's in the past. I'm not going to hold a grudge because we couldn't see eye-to-eye on something and enjoyed a communication breakdown.
I remember a few months back — when I saw you sulking and acting aggressive with members here due to the fact you were being downvoted — I wasn't impressed with you or the entire situation. I spoke up, mentioned how it was becoming difficult for me to work in that setting, with everyone arguing all around me. I think I said something along the lines of, "I'd like to see some professionalism around here." You lashed out at me, laughed in my face with your words, treated me like I was one of them, a thug, a gang member, when the reality was I played no part in that mess and distanced myself from it. Every time I see you around I think of that day. I don't hold a grudge. It's in the past.
It's time to move on. A fresh start. If we manage to get out of this jam, as a team, then these witnesses will have no choice but to finally recognize who's really in charge here (everyone), and hopefully adjust their attitudes accordingly.
I wasent sulking or acting aggressive with anyone.....except Acidyo....and I’m still gonna find him someday am have him call me the names he did to my face. He won’t because he a little loud mouth pussy who hides behind his keyboard. I meant what I said to him and I still mean it. He will get his chance soon. #facts #takeittothebank Now him and all his buddies just upvote each other which it exactly what they wanted to stop. It’s bullshit.
Dude. No need to flex. I didn't come here to argue with you. I can respect that was a difficult time for you and I understand what it's like to become frustrated. I lose my cool as well, and I'm not ashamed of it. I don't have a beef with you and we don't need to be friends either. Pay attention to the other things I said. The current problems we all face here are bigger than us as individuals.
I’m not trying to flex, I just want to set the record straight about “sulking” and “aggressive behavior “ statements you made about me. I have made over 700 videos and anyone who watches me knows I have never made one sulking or aggressive. Now I do talk trash (lots of it) during the football season because it’s the whole point of my channel. It’s in good fun. I contributed lots of ORIGINAL content for this blockchain, I invested lots of money and I did my part to help others get started. I was a circle jerker, I NEVER once said I was not. I had no problem doing it and I still don’t. The people I voted for provided great content here. I almost never voted for any of them anymore in fear of Acidyo, Pharesim,OCD,Curangel and their mob of mindless minion trail voters. I tried to get them to understand my point, reason with them, compromise. They did not give one single inch. They bombarded me with daily downvotes ( but that 4 way circle jerk votes each other’s posts many times) and made me rethink my strategy here to earn Steem. This is far from sulking and aggressive and you know it. So before you want to comment here on my post and lecture me about the bigger picture for all of us, just stick to the REAL NEWS and REAL FACTS and quit embellishing what the truth actually is......Justin Sun.
Now. Don’t have a problem with you, I actually don’t even remember who you are and if I even ever had a conversation with you. It doesn’t matter anyway for either of us. I will say what I got to say, call out people on this chain who are double standard sacks of shit and people who lie to cover their ass. I want what you want pal, believe me! The difference between me and you is, you want to vote to protect the chain at all costs, I will not vote (I have control of 500k in several accts) for the witnesses that I think “ruled” this chain even it if means sacrificing the chain for me and everyone else. I would rather get in Justin’s boat and row then vote for some of “our guys” in the top 20. That’s just me. I don’t expect anyone to for anyone. Your vote matters to me only in that you vote.....and not a proxy vote. People need to care and they need to think for themselves.
I can respect that was a difficult time for you. Maybe sulking was a poor choice of wording. At the time you were bad-tempered out of annoyance or disappointment. Fair enough. I hope those things don't bother you for the rest of your life. Life's too short.
I've seen some of your videos. I think I left you a snarky comment one time. You were grumbling about those NFL refs and I said you guys should hire some CFL refs and that would fix everything. I'm Canadian. More into hockey than football though.
The voting to protect the chain is temporary. I think the community did a great job pulling together and getting shit done. Far better than arguing and doing nothing.
There's no need to defend yourself to me. I'm not judging you. When all of those issues from the past were happening, I took a break. Stepped away for a bit, but that was planned long before there were so many fights happening. I work pretty hard on my stuff as well. You said 700 videos. I know it takes work. I've produced over 1000 digital images, many take a full work day to complete, but not always, and some take longer. Plus I write a lot. Then the comment section. That thing used to light up every day for me so I'd sit and talk with everyone, for hours and hours and hours LOL! It gets tiring but I do enjoy it. I'd be dead if I didn't take a few months to rest every now and again. And for some strange reason, I always come back when there's a new challenge to take on like we have today.
I just had a listen to the conversation Justin had with the witnesses recently. If you're looking for facts, go there.
Didn't read this part earlier, guess that differs you from me. I set aside personal issues with witnesses when push comes to shove, in fact I also set aside other issues when voting for witnesses in general even before this drama because witnesses are there to protect the chain and votes are there to enforce that and not used to cast on whoever you like while sacrificing the whole blockchain.
What the fuck are you talking about? If you're gonna accuse me of that maybe prove it with some statistics like I did when I called you out for vote-trading. As far as I remember all I told you was to fuck off before you went on an insulting and threatening spree and if I called you names after that then you pretty much deserved it. You still seem to be threatening and holding grudges over us attempting to enforce the EIP which if you haven't noticed has made curation much better on the platform.
Anyway, reading your other comments, you're right. You are a nobody here and so am I because Steem is much bigger than us and what Justin Sun is trying to do should not let personal feelings come in between us when we need to band together to save the Steem that we know and have positively impacted in one way/scale or another. The rest is on the others to decide who's done what with it but that's a time for another phase when we have this current cancer that ned created off our platform. I'd appreciate it if you didn't accuse me of votetrading on a select few people when you can clearly see the numbers of how many are posting in the OCD community and how we're trying to trend as many unique authors as possible. That said curation has not been so focused the past couple days after this witness shitshow Steemit is currently causing.
Welcome to You Deserve https://steemit.com/trending/hive-183209
I hope that you will invite friends to help the novices in the community. Hand in Hand towards the Imam, all greetings
And I’m not dying to be a witness either......
Nobody is asking you to be a witness. What I meant was, a witness can't be a witness without our witness votes. The ones who vote are in charge.
Now, I realize many will say this place is centralized and only Freedom's vote matters but if you actually look at what happened today, you'd see that's no longer the case.
