Hey Bernie,
I might not be happy with the full top 20 list... But who (in your view / opinion) does do a good job around here (as a witness)?
If you don't know this answer yourself, take time and find out. In the meantime, find someone you trust that does and proxy your witness vote to them until you do.
It impossible to get an unbiased response to that question but as @nonameslefttouse says, it's a good question.

you know that for a fact or you are just repeating what 'they' write here ?
This is a cool question.
Nobody. We need to create new witnesses from scratch
From scratch? That'll take a man, a woman, maybe a candlelight dinner, some wine... and a lot of time.
;)
Of course, the point is, the witness thinks he's a lord. He is chosen to represent the voters. But they don't know or want to use it, believing that they are the most important group that has been called to rule.
This has to change.
Steem needs marketing to survive. A changing of the guard might be cathartic, but is entirely unmarketable.
interesting and yup
Marketing about buy steem or join steem? Steem needs free and fast registration at first. Many people can't join steem.
First for one and then the other.
What has @aggroed done to support Steem in the past 6 months?
Steem-Monsters/Splinterlands, Steem-engine, Scot, Steem Keychain
Created the only reason people come to Steem these days.
...but I thought everyone came here to see me?
I used to think that tew. =/
... my poor heart. It has shattered into a thousand pieces of devastation. Each piece devastated further by the blast. As good as this day was, I fear it is my last. Not even a cast can fix what has already passed. I once amassed a fortune, unsurpassed. Gone are my days of flabbergast.
I like that Katy Perry song as well.
She's hard to work with.
:eggplant:
Nothing specifically that wasn't done directly by @yabapmatt. Aggroed is very good at positioning himself in front of the cameras and the spotlight to act as the face of Steem or the various projects that are all lead and developed by other people.
@yabapmatt has done the lion's share of the work in their "partnership"
Aggroed rarely participates in steemit slack unless he is dropping a post to his radio show.

DRAMAgo to steem-engine.com.He actively manages MSP-Waves
Posted using Partiko Android
He's absolutely the funding and inspiring force, but the OPS team of @r0nd0n and @globocop are incredible steemians giving up huge amounts of their time monitoring the station 24/7, doing the hard and software work, onboarding djs, solving problems, and creating all of the access points to the Waves. Just wanted to put that here because they are INCREDIBLE and need all the love because they're the types who are stoic and behind the scenes and not enough people know about them 🖤
No doubt about it, @crimsonclad!

Amazing talent. Couldn't do w/o.
As someone who just started a show on MSP Waves recently, @r0nd0n has been awesome.

Disclaimer: This response was intended to be humorous.
Lol! Oh man.. I think I need to add a disclaimer to my comments too.. or chats.. DMs.. everyday conversations. Seems like it would be a real time saver 😜
I was thinking about maybe changing my name to, ImJoking. Unfortunately, with my luck, that name is probably already taken, because, well, no names left to use. That's just how it is.
True.. that is why I am Justine eh after all... or Justine meh... just depends on my mood. 🙂
Hopefully this place doesn't turn you into Justblah.

He does a pretty good job maintaining the blacklist.

He actually posts stuff. Some of it can even be understood by me. He has a nice swimming pool and he has a blacklist which he uses to stop people using his bots and taking the piss out of the reward pool. Thats a pretty cool thing to do :-)
he posts same article every day on his @buildawhale account , amazing really

Granted, I don't follow Steemit much anymore - almost not at all - so grain of salt, but I think Mark does a good job reporting and exposing different forms of abuse and spam.
you obviously don't follow steemit , marky is criminal

Put me in the top-20 and I’ll run a couple full nodes and continue building the BROsino and its multiplayer poker companion site about to launch within the next day or two...plus the rest of the BRO Sports & Gaming NetworkTM apps/sites currently in development.
It would be great to get some of that support that currently goes to scams and scammers like Magic Dice/Dmania/zombee or all of these “curation projects” that do practically nothing for Steem other than placate a few bloggers in our little bubble here.
We just continue building for the mainstream and aren’t ponzi-scamming people or promising a bunch of worthless shittokens for playing our ponzi-scam games. I guess that’s not good enough for Steem users. And everyone wonders why legit users/devs rarely stick around and why investors are pretty much nowhere to be found.
As much as some of you folks like to think this @ats-david character is a loudmouth asshole... he's actually pretty cool.
Thanks David's sockpuppet! :smirkemojiforpropereffect:
Ha! FEK oof. Not cool! Hand that boy a paintbrush and tell him to paint you like one of his French girls. He won't be able to!

For anyone viewing this thread, that is not actually mine. I stole it from the other guy above.
Calm down. It was a joke. We are still allowed to have fun here, right?
He stole it from me, this is true. Now watch the fun ensue. Take notes. See the rhyme? That was gangsta. It's happy time.
Did you at least upvote MY post. You know... the post I published today. That one. That one with my fucking art you just... puh puh puh plagiarized! Thanks for the plug though. Hey everyone! I painted that! All by myself! Cool, right? Maybe that should be trending instead of this fucking malarkey? Hmmm? Make it so!
P.S. YOU motherfucker!

Ahhh!
You make me want to smash your head right now!
But I'm okay. Just breathe and take it up the ass.
Haha! Tricked you! I'm not cool at all!
This guy...
yup but make sure if you do some type of fest that you choose to include a site to tour like Auschwitz in the official Steem backed party cause that's real effn great..... would personally like to see you in top 20 but I hear that involves having to do Illuminaughty stuff to some giant pumpkin :P
I actually have a few witness votes left, are you on the list?

What has @curie done to support Steem in the past 6 months?
the usual curie things:
discovering new and non-discovered authors,
rewarding under-rewarded ones,
donating steem for community development (supporting various smaller projects and contests)
Never manages their own witness so, IMO, should not have a witness server. The witness servers shouldn't be intended for funding companies. They should be intended for securing the chain production.
Not sure who is currently running the witness.
Not sure what to say, Curie is kind of organization and not one man - I've been part of curie for over 1.5 years, and few months ago I started operating their/our server.
I have been running my own witness for 7 months now, without any glitches, nor missed blocks - and I have fairly knowledge in computational data science (not that much into developing) but can pretty much grasp the codes.
Also it is worth noting that curie's goal is to redistribute all witness earnings back to active steem authors/users, through various donations/contests and curation.
Some people think a witness should fund a business or project and others think it should fund chain security and stop there.
I don't think witness funds need to be given back to people. They are earned by the user securing the chain.
No offense intended with the comment. Curie is a decent service from what I hear, as a non author.
lol that is not true. Curie witness operators have always been within Curie. I don't know what makes you think "should not have a witness server", but Curie has been more than capable of running a witness. @svemirac has been doing an amazing job as a witness operator. Moreover, Curie is a community witness.
May I ask why commented under everybody, except for ocd-witness? I think both Curie and Ocd have done and still doing amazing service for the Steem community.
I like your SteemDevs channel. I was going to run an idea by you, moving SteemDev beyond discord. Creating an educational platform for those who want to learn coding on Steem. Something like this - https://emkc.org
I was on mobile and the page load is very bad so I eventually quit. Didn't ignore anyone intentionally. Will go comment on the others I missed.
I am not saying anything negative regarding the user operating the witness server, in fact they are the ones that should be getting the gross pay, in my opinion.
If curie and svemirac switched positions it would make more sense to me, as a developer/programmer.
As far as the project idea we have the
looking-for-devandproject-promotionchannels on the discord and always have people open to helping out.This group hooked me up in the early days and I fucking love seeing noobs get paid more than me, because of them. They're a keeper. Cool in my books.
Dissentuous ditto.
My experience has been exactly opposite of that.
They told me corporatespeek or gtfo.
Then accepted delegations that diminished my slice of the pie.
It was a fine howdoyoudo.
BUT! Look at the difference between our work. I took the artist/entertainer route, which is what I wanted to do here, from day one, without knowing who or what would be interested; and you're more political/opinion. They weren't looking for opinions. They were looking for talent in a different field. Kudos to you though, for sticking to your guns instead of chasing that money, looking for the "easy" votes(it wasn't easy).
It triggered my favoritism button,...still not over it.
Still having their subsidy taken from my slice.
Also having Comment Contest which increases user engagement among Steemians
They've supported Lucksacks with Advertisements and Freerolls for the Steem Community via @geekgirl for some time now.
Curates. Legit curation is hard to come by here these days.
What has @someguy123 done to support Steem in the past 6 months?
A large portion of my time lately is spent working with Steem Engine, actively developing the behemoth of a project that is Cryptotoken Converter - a fully open source cryptocurrency gateway, faciliating deposits/withdrawals and conversions between a multitude of coins.
I did make a post about this just 2 months ago, covering a lot of the work I've been doing behind the scenes https://steemit.com/witness-category/@someguy123/witness-update-primary-witness-now-in-sweden-steemengine-development
Thanks to the work of myself, @yabapmatt, @harpagon, @aggroed and several others, it's now possible to send foreign cryptos such as Bitcoin and Litecoin to anyone on the STEEM network - transaction fee free and in seconds, as well as exchange them on the SteemEngine DEX with zero trading fees.
I've also been experimenting with MIRA, and I've made updates to my Steem-in-a-box project to support it, allowing a wider audience to test it out and help discover any potential issues with the new updates. (announced it first in steem.chat #witness - post coming soon).
There's also general maintenance of existing projects such as https://anon.steem.network (something which even you use, as anyone can find out by looking at the public incoming STEEM transfers), https://www.steem.center and https://value.steem.network
A lot of Steem contributions take place at my company @privex :
I'm well aware of the fact that I don't post updates to Steemit as much as some other witnesses do, but that doesn't negate the amount of work I do for the community and network.
He's done some work on Steem-Engine, he runs Anon-steem, and Privex. Also Steem-in-a-Box (docker).
Correct. He is the reason Steem Engine has pegged tokens.
I hear good things.
Provides a stupid simple steem-in-a-box setup so users like Jerry Banfield can run witness servers easily.
Runs Privex and offers great deals so a huge percentage of witnesses are using the same hosting company.
Doesn't participate much in steemit slack.
It's just some guy. I don't know. No comment.
no clue, who the hell is this guy?
What has @yabapmatt done to support Steem in the past 6 months?
@yabapmatt is responsible for some of the cooler projects on Steem:
👆 this guy was caught stealing STEEM from users !!!
I flag trash (and morons). You have received a flag.
This guy once accidently upvoted my Shit Post of the Day Award for way too much money, and I think spoke to me once, so that makes him cool.
All of the actual work for the projects related to him and aggroed. The ones listed below.
@yabapmatt sometimes participates in steemit slack discussions.
...
If all witnesses would develop such cool things, we would be off way better ;)
This.
He made Steem Monsters which has onboarded tons of new users to the platform, he help make Steem Engine which anyone can tokenize anything via the Steem Blockchain, he created the bid bot system. Not to mention employs parttime a few members here including myself. He’s what an ideal witness is all about
He also delegates his SP to different steemit comunities, for example @homesteaderscoop
Vote against the EIP (as only one of the top 20).
Also sponsors @steemcommunity's Minnow Power up League.
What has @lukestokes done to support Steem in the past 6 months?
He's full time eos.
Not exactly. I currently do consulting, work with eosDAC to build DAC Enabling technology, and help with the Dapix team to launch FIO. I'm still here and active, though I have been traveling lately. Bernie has a special place in his heart for me, which is why I got singled out a bit. :)
Dude is literally not here, but somehow made it to number 2?
promoting eos on twitter :)
I promote all kinds of projects on Twitter which I think can provide value to the world, including Steem (while many others gave up on Steem a long time ago). I have been traveling lately though, but I'm still here.
I'm still around. :) I've just been traveling.
To EOS?
I did go to the Block One June 1st event and the Tulip Conference as well as speaking at the EOS BP Summit. I had a good conversation with @transisto in D.C. and some other Steem people as well. This past week I was doing some consulting for a different project.
Working with other projects to help strengthen all projects is not a weakness, IMO.
👆 this guy was caught stealing STEEM from users !!!
I flag trash (and morons). You have received a flag.
A lot of the top 20 witnesses still seem to be voting for him nevertheless.
I've been traveling for the last few weeks, but I'm still here.
Nothing. Does not participate in steemit slack.
That's true, I have not contributed to the Slack conversations much lately. I used to be actively involved along with everyone throwing around opinions, but at the end of the day I wasn't seeing much resulting value as it was mostly just opinion without much action. Traveling the last few weeks hasn't helped either. I'm pretty much always available and responsive when actual decisions need to be made, and I respond quickly.
I asked kind of same question from him and he replied:
He did said to came up with Idea of Steem as a DAC but we can all see his affiliation with EosDac more.
I still feel this way. It's up to Steem Power holders to decide who they trust to run the chain. As I explain here, IMO my involvement in other projects helps me bring important context and perspective here.
Long time delegator of @SteemFlagRewards which helps us reward flaggers.

I think I saw this dude get drunk on hot or shots once. I don't think he ever spoke to me though, so .. meh. Kinda cool kinda not cool.
I did indeed get alcohol poisoning because I had been fasting for three days before doing the show. That was a really bad idea, but I learned from it. I was fine all through the show and the after show as well, but then eventually my body was like "Nope!" and I paid the price.
I think I remember your I'm So Hungover post shortly after that as well... LOL! Live and learn, man.
Hah! Yep, here it is on my random account.
I won't even go near a device with any form of social media if I'm having a few drinks. I'm not sure if you've ever seen my blog and some of the nutty things I've done. That's all sober. The times where I did drink, I straight up said I've been drinking. One story I wrote made people cry. It was a good story but I don't want people crying after leaving my blog...
