"In here" for a bit this evening (here), I got a little boost in my spirits reading this @jaynie. Good for you in taking a leadership stance for your community's role in all that is unfolding. You may wish to "keep it coming," for their encouragement and support, as I suspect more and more people are going to need it ...
In choosing to attend, last night's Town Hall meeting with a huge disappointment. It was clear to me Justin Sun was attempting to "dial back" tensions a bit and open the door to some sort of conversation about a path forward. What amounted to little more than a mob scene spouting crude, profane, meaningless garbage in response was an embarrassment ...
In the absence of provable bad intentions, "my vote" would have been for our representatives to take the high road. At least until such time as Sun took the first "malicious actions," which made it provably and unmistakably clear he had bad intentions.
Didn't happen. No matter now. This is what matters ...
A lot of money is going to be flowing in, before this is finally settled. It's already begun ...
P.S. I'm going to put a suggestion in to the SteemPeak team about considering some way to show the total MVest available in each of our Steem communities. Then they would have a quantitative measure of how much influence they really have in getting this mess resolved ...
Thats a very good idea!!!
Thank you for this valuable input as well as for the validation of what I have said.
