Charles, the number of people from your group messaging me now and commenting doesn't speak well for you, considering your investigation is for threats, harassment and fraud against those same people. It has the opposite effect. When I receive organized messages like this I know its coerced. You're not the first person blacklisted for this type of matter but I hope that you will be the last. Please stop with the messaging. Like I said, I will always find out what's going on behind the scenes, positive or negative.

@guiltyparties. Am so sorry sir that they are still bothering you. Although If I was in their position, I will still do the same. I have stuck my head for a trusted friend whom I have known for years. A good number of them have known me for years, so when we talk about threats and harassment, it's laughable to them at worst and unbelievable at best. The atmosphere in the group has remained positive from day one. Everyone is fine, definitely.
Please don't expect me to panic, Don't. I still retain huge support from @crypto.piotr, the Founder of ProjectHope. He is a friend, from another continent, who is not in our group and who cannot be coerced easily. His support for me on Steemit is massive. I publish on Publish0x and some other platforms. So am fine.
Like I said, I will continue to encourage and train them through tutorials and online classes to help them grow on Hive. They will still build a community here and become established. I don't have a second account since I joined in 2018 and I will never. So my classes for them will continue on other channels than Hive.
I do not have any ill feelings for you personally. You are doing a great job here. I just have to clear my name and reassure you that everything is fine.
I wish us well in all life our endeavours. And do have a great day.
Hi @focusnow
The truth is that if you don't feel welcome on HIVE, then perhaps it's best if you focus your efforts on building your presence on STEEM and be active mostly there.
HIVE is very new and yet - it already managed to become famous for insults and abuses towards it's users by so called "hive elite". It's most likely not going to change.
You should not be forced to waste your time and energy to clear your name, especially while knowing that you onboarded serveral new users on this platform. People like you shouldn't be attacked.
That's just not the right way to go,
Yours,
Piotr
@crypto.piotr. I already started powering down yesterday. I took the whole of yesterday to go through Steemit and honestly, the kind of welcome and amazing support I saw their for newbies is touching. Hive is indeed a revolution, but some really terrible policing and targeting here by some entitled individuals does not represent anything decentralized. A lot has changed there this few months I wasn't fully there. The efforts I made here bringing 21 persons and motivating them since June would have paid off elsewhere. I was encouraging them all to invest and buy at least 1000 Hivepower so we can kick off our community here and some of them were getting ready to do it and this happened. I am grateful we have not gone that far. I can't wait to leave an environment where you are unwanted. More than 15 Newbie tutorials, Paying Facebook to run sponsored adds for Hive, networking and WhatsApp classes, phone calls and other efforts to bring users here represent nothing to some people. I bought Hive power delegations from @blocktrades for each of these newbies to help them kick off, all these efforts within 1 month. All of them still have WhatsApp messages of when I sent the keys with dates, when they made their introduction posts, and when I made the tutorial of how to change the keys. So basically, I can defend myself before any honest and independent investigators.
Sometimes, being rejected open up other wonderful opportunities previously ignored. Blockchain projects are springing up here and there, so I won't allow my efforts here to waste here. I will take my chances elsewhere.
sad :(
Dear @guiltyparties
The truth is, that it does speak very well for him. And it's only proving that this time around your judgement was wrong and you targetted wrong person.
I found it sad to see more and more users being discouraged from using HIVE. I'm trying to be neutral myself and be present on both chains - to be partly an observer. And it's obvious to me, that many "small" users are being either abused or insulted on HIVE.
I hope you will acknowledge the fact, that you just pushed very valuable user (@focusnow) towards STEEM. Many others (those who observe this topic and are just to scared of you to open up their mouth - and there are many people who fear you) will have similar impression.
I've seen conversations happening on 2 different Discord channel about this topic. And I'm sure there is more than those 2.
Is that what you really want? Entire situation is discouraging more and more users and making some of them come to conclusion that HIVE is ruled by "nazis" (quote, those are not my words).
Do you ever admit that you were wrong? Like ... ever? That's a very honest question.
Yours, Piotr
Piotr, please stop interfering with a very serious investigation. This is one of the most serious matters we had to deal with in years. What you see in Discords on this topic and what actually happened isn't the same. Your take on it isn't helping anyone.
Hi @guiltyparties
Thank you for your polite reply. I actually really appreciate it.
I know @focusnow almost 2 years. And I'm partly involved since we discussed his idea of him onboarding several of his friends/collegues. I myself recommended that perhaps HIVE would be better, since most communities moved here.
All I'm trying to say is that part of me has been involved and I offered @focusnow my own support to form his community here. And that within past 2 years I've learned to trust Charles and I value his work and efforts.
I would like you to consider, that perhaps this time you're wrong with your judgement.
This is my last message regarding this issue. I hope you guys will resolve it in civilized way.
Yours, Piotr
@crypto.piotr. Thank you so much. Thank you too Sir @guiltyparties. It shouldn't drag on. I already accepted the judgement here. We all should move on with our lives. I believe we have a better use of our time. I have already advised the newbies never to bring up the matter again. We have to accept that some things cannot be changed. So please, let's forget about everything. Thank you all.
