I sympathize with those stuck with SP too.
I bought and powered up something like 12 thousand Steem just after powering up several thousand more prior, to support the real witnesses - some of which are flagging me now.
that it was inappropriate for someone not directly involved to bring up the topic of what the owners of the stolen funds
When I first heard of the list, I expected my name to be on there and still had the feeling it would be when the HF finally landed, as I was one of those who pushed and spoke out heavily against those same people in support of flagging and the EIP.
I could have put it better.
Yes, I could have put it better too, but I didn't - I don't have a lawyer or an editor, to know what can and can't be said - but, that has always been the case - I am not going to be silent out of fear of angering the stake gods.
I really hope all the STEEM is returned to the rightful owners - even if they will use it to power up and flag me more :D I think that there is a good chance that due to the history of Bittrex knowing a fair bit about Steem and the governance, they will work it out quickly.
I hope you have a good evening.
I appreciate your appreciation for fairness. FWIW I didn't downvote you.
I am pretty fair all up - and have been around long enough to not care about the downvotes. What is a pity is how they are used to influence discourse.
