RE: I think we had enough with Erkan's FUD! (and why his wikipedia suggestion will never work)
Why the coarse language? It clouds and dilutes the substance of your post. For most of the readers, it's like "Profanities? Some kind of weird rant, move along"
You are probably right, I could use a lighter tone, but I guess that's my style and I don't like "censoring" myself even if it means my message reaches a smaller audience :)
When it's under Gridcoin tag, it's detrimental to Gridcoin, much more than erkan's 'secrets' buried in long, unintelligible chat-logs. We are an open and tolerant community, with strong humanitarian and philanthropic causes. F words don't fit that image.
And because of what? A Wikipedia rewarding proposal, which doesn't even have a voting going on? You are overreacting.
Point taken, post has been edited.
"And because of what? A Wikipedia rewarding proposal, which doesn't even have an active vote? You are overreacting."
I don't think I am overeacting. In my post I explain that I am sure he knows his proposal is impossible to implement. He just wanted to post more fud masked as constructive criticism.
Of course there is always a chance that I am wrong. But at least I know judging on what has been posted here on steemit and cryptocointalk that many other users share a similar opinion.
No Gridcoins can be released from the Foundation without an official vote. And we've had much stranger ideas in the past than this Wikipedia thing. I also think it's unworkable, but F words, kicking users out, hidden agenda accusations...? We never had that.
If you are still concerned, you can join Gridcoin Slack, discuss it with the team in real-time. You'll get plenty of valuable input for your Steemit articles. It's a team effort, all around.
