RE: Why I am still skeptical about Hive: Response to "How Steem Became Hive" by lukestokes
While I come at it at a slightly different view:
I also respect Luke, he wasn't here right before this all broke out and he bought the spin instead of understanding what actually happened.
Both sides have displayed why people wanted code based solutions, because humans are prone to emotion and make bad decisions when they are overcome with emotion.
DPOS under the current deployment has shown a weakness with only a 20 percent stake.
If the selling point is good vs evil.. centralized vs decentralized, I just don't find it compelling or honest based on results.
I agree with you that this is an excellent example that shows the necessity of written agreement (be it code, contract, law, whatever).

@whatsup, over the last few weeks, I have seen a lot of your comments on random posts and with everyone else going nuts with, you have been making the most sense. I'm not sold on either fork and I wish there was third option without the ninja-mine or the unfair-airdrop, so we all start at zero, but I don't think that will happen.
Anyways, I know it's not always easy going against the grain, but I have enjoyed reading your take on all of this.
It's been really hard to go against the grain, but also very enlightening.
My suggestion had been that all existing accounts start as minnows.
That's not true. I have been here consistently since I joined in June of 2016. ngc has tried to argue I "left" for EOS but that is factually untrue and can be proven on chain with my activity and my running witness nodes.
I was directly involved in all of this since it started on February 14th. I was quote in both CoinDesk and Cointelegraph and retweeted by people like Peter Todd and Vitalik Buterin. To say I "bought the spin" is disingenuous and insulting.
I didn't mean to be insulting. I can understand feeling that though, as you have offered to "explain" this to me. :)
I do respect you, I saw no harm on you working on EOS as well. All experience is good experience.
Maybe I am wrong, but your visibility was different, and it looked to me like maybe you missed a few events.
I realize that could have been worded differently. Sorry.
I've been to the last three Steemfests, the last two with my family. I've shown up to many Discord events, though I don't attend them all because most of them don't accomplish much, IMO. It would be accurate to say my visibility has changed, but I've also posted on chain as to why that is. eosDAC, FIO, etc. Thanks for the apology. That's a rare thing these days with emotions high. I don't get annoyed all that much, but I do not like seeing facts misrepresented, especially when it comes to facts about me or my intentions. I've still got plenty of pride to work through to be bothered even less by that stuff. :)
No insult intended.
It was hardly an attack.
Sweet Jesus, a gag is coming on.
