Let me start with this, because otherwise I'll forget :)
Not all those who wander are lost;
That, sister, is my favorite line in all the literature I have read. Thanks for it.
I came to PHC looking for something specific. In all honesty, I was looking for a replacement to theSteemEngine. It was a magical band of misfits that put out really good content every single day. But that wasn't all they did. They fought the original 'Whale Wars'. I've only been around since January of 18, but I got to the Engine in time to see the Bernie Bash and Jerry Banfield in action. The people there just took their beating and got back up and took another. And another.
Which brings me to PHC. Like the Engine the primary population is incredibly interested in doing the right thing. Not once in a while, not just in public, but every time.
The people you mentioned are the nuts and bolts of the platform. The legend, THE LEGEND of the 25 against the horde is epic. If we were Vikings our great great grandchildren would sing of this thing.
I'm not interested in recognition, not even a teeny bit. I do what ever it is I do out of a deep belief that we here on Hive are onto something special. The fact that there are dickheads seeking the limelight will only grow as we grow. Sad truth. The point that is incumbent on me to remember is there are people, lots of people, that are just interested in doing the right thing. I'll just guarantee you that if this place succeeds it won't be the dickheads that drive it.
I'm really happy to say that I have at least some sort of personal connection to every single person that you mentioned, and I couldn't agree with you more that they DESERVE more recognition than they get. Doesn't stop or slow a single one of them....
Thank you.
I actually never joined SteemEngine but I do remember it well - especially their iconic banner.
You can say that again! We have the most incredible core in that space and that in itself motivates others.
hahaha!!! It was indeed awesome - BOTH times!
Glad this piece spoke to you @bigtom13. No doubt there are MANY more "oldies" floating about around here that will relate to this. !tip
