Hi there,
Perhaps just some key facts.
(1) We have been backing-up the network without interruption since september 2017 and have the infrastructure in place to switch at any moment to the 63 second schedule round with several nodes around Europe and 24/7 kill-switch monitoring scripts.
(2) We have the trust of almost 7k users who are voting already for our witness and aprox. 15k user following our account.
(3) We have an online-chat community with more than 8000 members with a team of dedicated moderators in two continents (Europe and Latinoamérica) to help newcomers in the steem ecosystem.
(4) We curate aprox. 50 posts a day with a team of 8 different human curators who read, comment and encourage Spanish speaking users to keep creating amazing content.
(5) We have a weekly official "life" podcast called steemit habla where all different steem related topics are discussed.
(6) We have a weekly popular science magazine called @cervantes ciencia, run by a group of university teachers and a dedicated group of graphics designers.
(7) We do regular (I would say bi-weekly) on-block discussions on topics in what we call "El Debate cervantil" where people are encourage to discuss openly a deeply about a variety of topics and where the best ideas and comments are voted and promoted.
(8) We are supporting an antiabuse/antiplagiarism team called @lince, together with more than 40 people with focus on not only marking abusive spanish written posts but trying to educate users to do things properly.
(9) We are doing a weekly life stream called "Curation Live" where the curators perform life curation sessions on cam / video sharing to show people how we curate, what criteria we use, and how is our understanding of value adding spanish content.
(10) We have a official "radio/podcast" station called @hisparadio with weekly programs like "steemit habla" where a great variety of steem related topics are discussed, also "enigmaticos" a fun program to make jokes and laugh or "hispamusica" a podcast about promoting spanish speaking steemian musicians, or a series of educational live audio streaming with educational content such as Philosophy or Health
(11) We run a project called "Embajadores" where selected Spanish speaker influencers outside of steem are approached to promote steemit has a platform and attract new users.
(12) We are running a steem/sbd to Bolivares exchange service named @cambio with new currencies to be added soon.
(13) We use our account to write original high quality content with several rotating teams of writers/correctors and designers-
(14) We use also our account to bi-weekly promote outstanding users in what we called Cervantes Presenta.
(15) We are working on several apps/websites to jump out of the steemit interface also in collaboration with other "anglo teams".
(16) We have participated in the two latest steemfests and performed live talks to present the Spanish steemit world to the "anglo" community.
(17) We have contributed to push the spanish tag up to the top of the trending topic.
And more over: We believe in steem. We kept writing/voting when the Steem went down to 0.07$ - the dark ages of early 2017. We have made a lot of great friends and are constantly learning, correcting, improving and discussing new ideas to to launch.
Thats all. I think
Yours sincerely Pablo @pgarcgo

You have my vote.
I will be reading attentively all your comments in English you make in that post...
or else...
Trick or treat... ?
Please don't risk your accounts showing the truth. There is enough polarization already in our society and in this block-chain as it is.
All hispanic witness should be working together period, we need to attract investors and protect our block-chain, what they do with their money is their business.
If you have something good to say about someone say it, but don't become what you want to fight.
castellano witness
Thank you @loreennaa for showing in a capture the message I left to my community. For those who don't know Spanish:
By the way, @loreennaa I don't know what your intentions are to show that capture, but if by making public my support to the witness that it is the "competition" of @cervantes I will suffer certain consequences, I will enjoy them placidly because they will be the result of my free will, I have nothing more to say.
Not to mention they banned me from their Discord server. They never liked me as a Witness. They just support themselves. While other witnesses focuses on helping the entire community, they only support those who follows their rules, which clearly centralize what is meant to be descentralized. It's clear @cervantes only wants to be in the top-20.
Thanks for the screenshot and for making this public.
Good afternoon, voting for @cerventes would be great, because thanks to your great support to the Spanish-speaking community, it has been very important, its content and programming towards its users and members is very good quality, it would be a pleasure for us that you I could give that vote of confidence to Cervantes.
