@onceuponatime,
"Imagine me, a born rebel, being compliant" Ha ha ha that's funny, but you said the truth :D @stan is the person who contributed 100% on building BitShares to the next level! Actually I am surprised the effort he is putting on BitShares.
If BitShares made it's success, @stan is the key of that success! That's how I feel about his influence!
What should I tell about you! You said you are a born rebel, but what I feel is you are a "born noble rebel" :D
Cheers~
