RE: Softfork 22.8888 - Yet another DPOS Failure - Reaction
What is the point of all this? Still butthurt about HIVE and not getting an airdrop? Let the people that want to leave, leave and you'll have more coins for your community and you're rid of the people you don't like, so why freeze accounts apart from hitting the hornets test and causing a PR problem.
I agree, I don't get the point either. Vengeful I have to assume. Yet, also if you left, abandoned the witnesses, why would you even be mad.
I guess greed I don't know, people can always make a case for why their view is right lol.
I think part of the problem is that some of the people that claim to want to leave aren't actually leaving, they're hanging around and causing chaos. (I don't support the soft fork, but I see that this is not an entirely one-sided dispute).
I get that, but its not as if there aren't so many people milking the place. Its by no means one-sided for sure but trying to control anyone else is a slippery slope, as soon as you make the step you can keep moving the goal posts, that's not really why I got into crypto. Bad behaviour that see benefits are not the fault of the individual but a fault of the protocol, they're just exposing the actual cracks in the system, but thats just one mans opinion
I agree. I think the virtuous way to go would have been for these new witnesses to propose ideas that would reform the system to reduce or eliminate the exploits, not just avail themselves of different exploits to try to strongarm their opponents. Part of the reason the Hive spamming and trolling makes me so angry is that it actively interferes with any possibility of having fruitful discussions here about ways that things could be reformed. It's hard for anyone to switch out of "war" mode when others are screaming in their faces.
Why do people have to choose one or the other? I say if they have stake here, they can use it. They are a part of the community and as such are free to use their stake and their voice as they see fit. It would be best for the Steem community to consider what they have to say and make a determination on it. We don't benefit by stopping them from transacting.
