I don't see it as a personal vendetta but as ftg doing what he has been doing ever since I've heard of him on the blockchain; which is combating reward pool abuse. We may not all agree about the method and I'm sure the SP wasted would benefit many others but it is what it is, right?

These last two weeks, I'm slowly starting to lose my faith in SteemIt, and this is just another example on the big pile of other things. If things keep going like they are now, I really doubt I will stay long enough to wait for SMT's...

Others have told me to post at competitor sites and I have yet to try. I simply don't have the time to try other blogging sites, not being a blogger at all. I'm throwing my lot with Steem Monsters. If they leave the blockchain, I will likely go with them. I feel there is less "gameplay" there than on here, tbh.
