RE: BONUS chapter Fireflies: Pupa (book 2, entry 34) - Name Games

in #fiction5 years ago

I was reading through most of the discussions in your post about the HF and although I don't agree with the way you see and predict things will go down after the HF I appreciate the great debates and discussions I got to read. Gave me a much clearer picture of how people view the possibly upcoming changes and I am hoping for our sake that most of the predictions in there are wrong and will try my best with what's in my power to make the most and best out of the upcoming changes for the authors and distribution of this currency as I have attempted to in the past but not as close to 100% as I've been able to due to the system we've had for so long. I for one am really looking forward to it and I hope that authors will find the changes to be of advantage to them with things such as stake being decreased from bid bots and being used to curate with and the downvote pool bribging back steem the the deserving authors instead of the leaches that have been plaguing our chain in so long without many being able to stop them before. I do hope you will give it a chance at least before leaving as you're a user that's been here for a long time and done a lot of great things for the ecoysystem and Steemians starting out.

I appreciate your very kind thoughts and your gentle way of responding. It's been a long time here, and a lot poured out of me. No different than many really.. so many have given to steem out of the love for seeing something special have a chance.

however, I think it's time for me to take my leave when HF21 passes.

It's really fine. I've run the gamut of emotions, and many people have begged me to stay. I so appreciate their desire to have me here, it touches my heart to know I made a difference.

But I do believe that this is a bad move, and sometimes it's more important to remove yourself from something that hurts so many. (at the very least, initially)

Working hard every day for a year to make WW a success and then watching it heartlessly be dismantled one by one, because of a lack of respect for the new user ... I just can't do it again.

I've poured into too may newbies to watch them all leave again.

If I felt we were all fighting on the same team, it would be worth the battle.

I don't think we all are.

I will say this... The kind, encouraging way that you spoke actually made me want to cheer you on to carry on the good fight 😊

I think the system is going about it the wrong way... But good for you for believing in what you're doing and trying ☺️

I'll most likely still sneak around and leave encouraging comments to people just for the love of my community here, but my posts will end soon.

Thanks again, gentleness goes a long way.

And thank you for upvoting my story... Sorry that you had to read (well.. if you read 😂) so deep into the sequel.

It's really a story I'm very proud of... This series is my best work ever.

I wrote it exclusively for Steemit and I'm sorry that I won't get to finish it here.

But I will give free copies to all my subscribers because I owe that and more to them!

I could have made more money elsewhere but their passionate interaction all along the way made it a blast!

If you find yourself catching up before I leave.... And you enjoy it...I'll be happy to give you free copies too ☺️
