IMPORTANT REMINDER TO PROJECT.HOPE TEAM: please do not ask other community members FOR MONEY

INTRODUCTION

Good morning everyone,

Since all my publications on HIVE are being downvoted to zero - I decided that I won't be bothered to post there any more. At least for the time being.

There is just to many haters and some people seem to take great joy in expressing their hate towards me. Most of the time, I'm not sure what is the reason behind their agressive behaviours and I've learned not to care. And for that reason, I will be publishing my own posts only on Steemit.

It simply doesn't seem to make much sense to attract more of this hostile attention.

Anyway, .... TODAY, I want to discuss important and quite sensitive issue ....

IMPORTANT REMINDER: DO NOT ASK FOR MONEY

This is a message I would like to be received by all Project.hope members. Especially those who are part of our core team and are supported financially (with some STEEM/HIVE) on a weekly basis.

Please consider it to be a sensitive and important topic, which I need to bring up today. And to be honest, I'm not even sure how to start ...

It has been brought to my attention that some of our PH core team members are asking others for financial support, making them feel awkward and uneasy. This HAS TO STOP.

It's not the first time I'm learning about similar cases. We had similar incidents happening in the past and my goal is always to educate our group - instead of punishing anyone. And for that reason, I always took the extra effort to find out who is asking around for money and talk to this person.

Unfortunately, it's never easy since those who are being bothered and whose financial support is being requested - they simply do not feel comfortable bringing up names. Which is making things even more complicated for me.

After all, knowing that one of our close community members are asking around for money and not knowing who is this person is putting me in a very strange position. One that I do not enjoy. The last thing I want is to witness some of our community members building distance towards Project.hope Core Team because of "one bad apple".

This is such an easy way to lose some of our members.

IT HAS TO STOP

I need to make it clear. Such behaviors need to stop.

Perhaps you're a close friend to one of the PH members and you want to ask him for financial help. I understand that. But DO NOT ask around people who are not very close to you. Who you hardly know.

This is so wrong on so many levels.

If you need financial help, then come to me. I will figure out if there is anything you could do to help our PH community grow, so you wouldn't receive "donation". Instead, I will try to give you an opportunity to earn a few bucks.

IF YOU'RE VICTIM OF SUCH A REQUEST

If you're one of the "victims" of a similar request, then do not hesitate to say "no". Or simply ignore that request and keep in mind, that YOU ARE NOT IN WRONG to refuse.

I'm fully aware of how difficult it is to "rat" on others. But I would appreciate it if you could inform me about a similar situation. I will always handle it in a polite and mature manner. Without punishing or threatening anyone but rather by simply talking and educating on the consequences to our community.

PLEASE CONFIRM

Please drop a short comment, which would allow me to figure out who did and who didn't read this post. At least something saying "I confirm reading, I respect and understand".

Yours, @crypto.piotr
