Extending an olive branch

aggroed (78) in justinsun • 5 years ago (edited)

About 15 minutes ago I wrote a post thinking I had just gotten a flag by @justinsunsteemit. it turns out it was just @justinsunsteem. Two different accounts but after three weeks of crazy I'm pretty tired. Anyway, the story doesn't really change.

Deescalation

I'd like Justin Sun and Tron to deescalate. I figure I should as well. I had a meme campaign planned for today, but I don't think I'm gonna do it. I instead delegated 1000 SP to him. He's a whale in the crypto sphere, but on his personal account he's a minnow. I started the Minnow Support Project. I figured despite his other possessions it's worth treating him like other minnows that join the platform and attempt to help him some.

I hope he can do the same.

Stake

Even if we can't both agree on the conditions of how the stake was gained I can say I'm excited by pledges that Justin and steemit have made publicly to put those funds to good use.

I'm planning on buying more steem because of these pledges for Steem. Hopefully it turns out to be a great financial investment.

New Witness Campaign

Lastly I've dropped out of consensus again. There's lots of reasons for that, but it's time to just chin up and campaign again. I've made a new campaign that I think works with the times.

Extending an olive branch is different from extending your ass (or lick Justin's extended ass if you prefer), lol

PM Do you promote every minnow delegation? Good luck with grabbing his attention. lol. I must be dreaming. I hope on next refresh of my browser it comes out it was an illusion I had because of not much sleep!

As a minnow, I find this post insulting. I already have you on my witness list, by the way.

I like your positivity and I’m tired of the negativity about Tron and the personal, sometimes racist attacks upon Justin Sun. You have my vote as a witness 🙏🏽

I don't trust his intentions for those development funds. Sure he can say he's using the funds for the benefit of the blockchain, but what that means is quite different once we consider that his idea of the blockchain's benefit may be making STEEM a Tron token, as he's previously suggested.

His development roadmap from today includes:

Maintain Steem blockchain running in parallel with TRON
....
Launch Cross Chain Atomic Swaps

Sounds like steps on the way to a STEEM token on Tron to me.

While I disagree with 22.2, I still vote for you (and I encourage others to do so also) as I believe that your passion and hard work helps Steem to progress. Cheer up, and I believe that you will be back in top 20 soon.

I only vote for one of the top 20 witnesses now because I'm quite sick of how they are dealing with this mess.

I have no stake? So the other 4000 odd minnows who have a similar stake to me should just quit?
How about no?
I've posted multiple comments stating what I think are reasonable solutions and offering my opinion. I have as much right as you or anyone else on this platform. Get off your high horse and try being a decent human.

He's trying to help a minnow along.

I figured despite his other possessions it's worth treating him like other minnows that join the platform and attempt to help him some.

its not through the minnowbooster project atleast. there is no dlease confirmation. its a lot of SP aswell... the justinsunsteemit acc didnt seem to vote for witnesses, and i hope to be reading a lot more responses from this guy in future and actually reply to comments instead of constantly leaving us hanging with no infos

Make love, not war and play @splinterlands. Hopefully, I have less anxiety as the DRAMA cools down. I want to post photos, play games and connect with people. Peace, you got my vote.

Actually this drama made us more aware about voting for witnesses. Some never even voted and don't know about it. Personally I have ignored my votes until the drama happened, I unvoted most disabled witnesses and voted non-sockpuppet top witnesses so they can go above the sock puppets.

Have one from me as well. On the house.

Edit: Since there's actually a post here now and not some wasted space like I saw earlier, I'll remove that downvote. Get some rest.

Hi @aggroed,

the smart one starts with Deescalation - great step.

In my world, the next step would be sitting together, having a few !BEER and start to "paint" a positive future where all grow steem together.

In my business life, I work a lot with top management in long workshops.
Having a drink together, often creates a better understanding for each other and imho this is needed in this situation.

Just my 20 cents...
