Time for a break...

I've set a calendar entry to remind me to try and search for some placee to sell my power down payments, and that's it for me. I finally got someone to make @ned start to try to make the appearance of answering the genuine concerns of the community.

There's no need for me to continue, because as anyone who has been following me would know, I've been raising the alarm since I first discovered what a clusterfuck steemd is, and when I see all the exchanges with ever increasing outage frequency and duration... I had a Steem deposit jammed up for 19 days at @poloniex. I'm amazed to see, for the first time in over 2 weeks, that they are back online.

Which means, I think, that people are starting to take it more seriously. But of course it never mattered when it was just me dealing with these issues. I'm nobody. It doesn't matter one iota that I was right. I'm not gonna get any prizes for being Cassandra. Cassandra is always hated.

But the situation turns when cassandra stops warning the people, and just gets on the road. Then it turns into a Sodom and Gomorrah.

I didn't start that fire, but I'm gonna be glad whenever someone chimes in at the discord chat to tell me about how everyone is talking about this now and how Stinc is finally fixing the problem.

Not that you are gonna give me any credit for tirelessly, ruthlessly pushing the issue until finally someone who Stink feels they have to answer to, raises the issue.

Enjoy the warmth of the fire!

I got better things to do than continue to be ignored by a bunch of artificially boosted premined accounts that risked zero, compared to the 12 months of dedication I put into this.

Thanks, its been a long time since I roasted marshmallows.

I have only recently found your posts but have enjoyed them very thoroughly. I'm going to hate to see you go as you are a great counter voice to help keep people grounded in reality. Best wishes!

I too appreciate your activity here, the importance of your posts, comments and replies, your measure of involvement and care, and only became aware of your existence yesterday.
This is still good, since I am now aware of your existence and know how to follow you on other platforms, but worse than if I was aware of your existence since joining, but I guess I had to know you somewhere.
One of this platform's best if not the best, and a must to follow.
This place will deteriorate further if you will leave, and I hope you will not leave, or at least return if and when the problems you alarmed about will be fixed.
Consider this too before and after you leave, in case you will leave:
Your presence here helps you increase your exposure and following on other platforms as well, so in addition to the direct financial incentive, you have more reasons.
I as an example, may have never became aware of your existence and value, had it not for both of our presences here, or I might have found you still, about 35 years later than I did.
I suffer a lot from steemd.com's malfunctioning myself, because I use it often due to its wholistic grasp of the entire information in this platform and timing of votes and posts.
These people are probably bad, but are you sure that your alarms reached them?
Maybe they did not, and in such a case is it even true to call it ignoring?

We need you and more people like you in the community, to inform and show the danders... personally, please don´t go !!! ... power down if you want but keep on sharing your views about the dangers you see in Steemit
