We just had to move fast for now.
Moving fast seems to be the new normal. First shoot them, later let's see, if they were enemies or friends. There are accounts on that list who invested much time and money into Steem. It cannot get more sad than that.
Your sensationalism is causing my left eyelid to twitch and I'm trying really hard to stay calm.
Let me ask you something and I need you think about this.
When I voted for what I believed in, did I know I would — at some point in the future — know, that I would be receiving an airdrop?
No. I didn't know that. I had no way of predicting an outcome like that. I did not vote for an airdrop, because it didn't exist.
You, and many others, made your choice, just like everyone else. Deal with it.
P.S. I really like SteemWorld. Thanks for all your hard work.
They still have their Steem. Why would they want Hive? That's not what they wanted. Money comes into the picture and all of a sudden everyone wants to pout about their own personal decisions that they were fine with 10 minutes before that list was published? What's sadder? Tell me. They wanted something else, not Hive. So why should they suddenly care? Money? Greed? Selfishness? No integrity? Which one is it? Tell me.
1 type wont get, those who dont care
I have heard 2 types who may get:
Philosophical dispute
Mistake
Can be each divided into
greed
genuinely interested in hive
I think steemchiller had philosophical dispute and is genuinely interested in hive.
Id vote yes give airdrop.
Is that a fact or is that sensationalism?
Who would be creating a division with a statement like that?
As for the airdrop problems. I think he can settle it like a gentleman.
Is that an accurate description of me?
I don't fucking think so.
Can we just end this? Please? Can everyone just move on? That's all I ask. I'm upset. I'm sick of this shit.
Yeah, this post was definitely written to be sensational. However, I was just trying to look into why he supported some sock puppets. He is no enemy of decentralization and doesn't seem driven by greed which my two important qualifiers. Some actions do seem to me to have been made in poor judgement.
I do think the 'worker bees' reference is demeaning (better than a drone I guess) and there have definitely been a lot of nasty words thrown around. Poop slinging is, unfortunately, a common debate strategy.
It was a spicy way to write his last post on our combined chain, but I don't think it was over the top. However, Hive will be a fresh start for all. I'm leaving some of my baggage behind. I will absolve my sins and become born again as a member of the hive. I hope the people who want to jump aboard the train also consider this.
By accepting the airdrop, it means we are interested in the future of Hive and support decentralization and the removal of the Steemit Stake from centralized control (okay most people just want more money). The past is in the past, I hope.
There will be proposals written by people who didn't receive an airdrop. I can't imagine this post making a good proposal. However, I do hope he makes a sincere effort at a Hive proposal when he is ready. Steemworld offered us non-tech people a deep look into the inner workings of the blockchain. It's a unique dapp created by a unique dapp person. I think he could fit in better on Hive than Steem if given a second chance.
I'm seeing folks who actively participated in a Sybil attack on a blockchain now wanting to get paid for it. This is ridiculous.
He writes this post, in this manner, to cause an uproar, and blames everyone else for the problems.
I'm done with this garbage. I spent weeks watching this nonsense and barely said anything. This place is lucky I didn't explode weeks ago.
What's done is done. Everyone get over yourselves. Carry on with life now. I'd like to think we're better than this.
I'm done talking here.
Correct, even if we accept his premise for jumping in, 2 wrongs don't make a right.
I'm probably dense for jumping into this one. I like the unapologetic types. There are a few people begging for forgiveness, with literally nothing to say for their actions and they aren't even worth my time.
Only a passionate person who cherishes Steem/Hive would say this.
It will all be over soon. 4 more hours I think.
Don't let them fool you!!!
Yup, my hardwork for 2+ years will be locked/nullified on the launch of Hive.
I'm also in the list for following a proxy witness.
I guess the devs will not look back on the code (about the list) as they have a lot things to prep for the launch...
So stay on Steem. Why not?

Steem and Hive have the same size user base. If anything Steem has the advantage of a working on-boarding system (I don't think Hive has one yet), is better known, has more existing apps, and has far better SEO. If anything Steem should be better off in terms of network size, unless there is something about Hive that makes it superior, and if there is, that certainly wasn't something contributed (in fact the opposite) by the people who didn't get an airdrop.
