You have come here numerous times and accused me of all kinds of fraud, lying and abusive behaviour - dropped acidic verbal attacks and claimed to know all about me without ever attempting to engage in anything approaching a friendly manner or even reading my posts (or actually knowing anything about me). This is not a healthy or even 'normal' way to relate to people, so I'm sure you can appreciate why I might be a bit annoyed by the situation. I only know a limited amount of information about you and I aim to not judge anyone, but I'm sure you can appreciate how what little I do know of you is pretty caustic.
This isn't 'all about the money', but it seems to make no difference how many times this is said as the alternative would shatter your narrative.
I don't see any value in judging people and throwing abusive names around - it serves no purpose other than to ineffectively attempt to process emotions within the one doing it. Like others here, I am more concerned by the effect that 'spicy' and abusive language has in the minds of onlookers than I am actually bothered by it personally. Free speech includes the right to throw around pointless abuse, but it doesn't negate having to deal with the effects caused by those actions.
The idea that you are loved for 'helping everyone receive fair rewards' is a bit big headed - surely you can see that right? Proof of brain is a consensus mechanism meant to reflect the combined views of potentially large groups of people. Regardless of your intentions or how positively you view yourself, please never forget that national dictators will tend to also tell everyone they are loved for looking after everyone.
I could not personally say what you are saying here without feeling I sound like a politician who is trying to sell others on him having them do as he says. I'm not trying to annoy you here, I'm just genuinely baffled how we can have such wildly different senses of self perception.
There really isn't any need for conflict and attempts to inflame here. I will just continue to operate in mine and others best interests, as I understand them, within the law of the code of Hive and continue to suggest changes that people can voluntarily go along with or not. You say you are doing the same in your own way - the outcome is what consensus decides.
I will only add that it would be nice if this could be done in a peaceful and respectful way.
So you say you know very little about me yet you say my self perception is wild? I'm not one to go around often saying what I do for Hive, it's quite obvious for people who are involved so it doesn't need mentioning. I felt the need for you to know in this situation since your view of me is obviously flawed because you see me as a mass downvoter and "censor" which you've many times stated but never mentioned how limited and seldom my downvotes appear and my focus mostly being on inactive "influencers" who are more fake than the content they produce.
I'm okay with your other comment and I doubt this will become anything big since your community is rather small compared to the stake being used towards it and I doubt it'll grow as there hasn't been much sign of it in the last few years so feel free to do what you want. I've made it clear by now the dangers of proxy'ing witness votes to people en masse but I don't think you'll get to the levels of the korean stakeholders.
Anyway, I tried to be peaceful in this comment even if you undermined my activity on Hive based on barely knowing anything about me before all this disagreement of reward era occurred I assume.
Sorry but I'm pretty sure I've read your posts early on and wasn't instantly aggressive, especially the one about the word censorship and how it may exist on Hive. If it got aggressive over time then it's probably cause of things you've said. Not my fault most of the content you guys produce gets so little engagement and possibly consumption that the thing that pops in my head is that the possibility of sockpuppeting to pretend to be spreading that stake around but in the end it going to the same few people exists and is highly likely. Social activity is something we focus on with our curation after years of bloggers just dumping content no one reads and getting autovotes/"friend" votes and not giving a shit about anything else and taking it for granted. It's also not something you can prove, obviously, that's probably what makes it something easy to accuse you of so I'm not really defending it being a great retort just in general disagreeing with your ways and adding vulgarity on top of it. I'm passionate about Hive, not to a point where I'd go against reason but if there's suspicion that people are acting against it for ulterior motives then it does trigger me quite a bit because I've seen most reactions to downvotes over the years and when it's not complete morons acting out it's not as easy to deal with it but in the end it's been proven that it's mostly about the rewards and not the things they suddenly come up with when the downvotes start happening.
