Well done, @acidyo:

Brilliant "work" like this ensures the Hive blockchain will continue to fade away, as it has been since I decided it was a good idea to begin publishing content in 2018.
Followed years later by "voting" with my feet and removing approximately $30,000 in value from this blockchain. As stated many times, during those years, I was capable of having a much higher stake.
Not only is that opportunity past, I personally have advised against investing into this blockchain, within the network of investors with whom I have some influence.
You cannot make a credible case any clear-minded investor would put their hard-earned money at risk, by investing into value destroying behavior like what you have initiated. Only made possible by what is inherently a fundamentally (fatally, I would argue) flawed design.
I am trying to understand your interest in hive blockchain:)
According to you; you already sold. We collectively pushed you out. So be it.
If hive fades away or not, please tell me how is it any of your business anymore? If I were you, I would not worry about these useless mundane things and focus on retirement hobbies. Just saying.
Why? Why have you chosen to invest your valuable time in asking me this question?
Look. I have known you for a while. You are a nice gentleman.
If you want to be involved, do so. But you can't have any impact here without a stake. That is the way this place is.
It is all upto you. I personally don't care about empty words like:
mass adoption
value add
I could have brought 10 people
I invested $30K, and now I am out
None of these mean anything to me. I have heard these a lot of times from a lot of people. This is all part of a playbook.
So do whatever you please, but don't expect anyone will listen to you or that you will make a slightest bit of difference.
You have freedom of speech. Talk/write all you want.
Good, @azircon. In extracting this:
Some common ground, upon which we can agree.
also since we are on this particular user's blog (who I do not know and clueless about his problem): yet I predicted this 14 hours ago
and here is the popular and predictable "end of the road" post :)

Damn! I hate to be right all the time!
PS. This is why I all this a 'playbook'.
Appreciate your words, Rob. It's interesting how acidyo labels me as a the abuser when his own poshtoken is upvoting its own spam comments for hundreds of dollars per day, while I'm actually using the funds the community account earns to help others build with HSBI. Yes, I understand their point about "buying votes" but at least it was being used to help other members. Now, this will no longer be the case.
I'm leaving the social part of the blockchain.
Cling on to the poshtoken branch, I'm sure it's hard to grasp what those rewards are used to when you don't try. hint: it's doing more for this ecosystem than most communities on hive do.
There's tons of reasons to want to buy hive stake and use it well in the form of curation and attention. Take a look at @theycallmedan who has bought millions of Hive and curates responsibly, no one has an issue with how he uses his stake and he's built many tools and services and big projects that may drive hive forward in many ways and the community respects and rewards him in many different ways.
He's not selling votes however nor buying votes. How is that difficult to comprehend?
I don't know your full history as to what made you leave hive, I glanced at the post you linked mentions of hivewatchers and they may not be perfect, no one is, but blatantly ignoring the one thing that makes hive unique and abusing it for your own gain and pointing towards people trying to combat such activity for the health of the platform as the reason token price is dropping is straight up delusion. Best of luck.
