Daily post #44 in a 50 part series leading up to April 1, 2017

Brindle Swan has a bit of a fever, and doesn't feel like posting today. WAAH!!!

But, but . . .

Sure, there was no specific statement that every single day there would be a post, but still . . .

In post #42 we talk about a new account with a new purpose:

@brindleswan-hub  will not be an account for general blog posting, but rather for  providing basic contact info, links to our other accounts, posts with a  new tag   #commitments-made, posts with evidence of   #commitments-kept,  public balances maintained according to commitments, comments from  those appreciative of commitments kept, or providing evidence if they  weren't. Steemians can also send a .001 Steem "tip" to make a negative  or positive comment immortal in the blockchain. The Steemit reputation  score of this account will likely stay very low, but it will be a new  way to actually build a reputation on a blockhain, based on keeping  promises, and new portals into the Steem blockchain, with new formulas  can provide a non-blogging based reputation score that can be used in  team building within the fOoLs Project. 

Now we realize we need a few more uses for this account: to document when commitments are admittedly not kept, make apologies and make restitution. Restitution can be in the form of labor, say spend an hour or however long on reddit/r/politics engaging in intellectual battle to promote the RAPP, or monetarily -- transfer 10SBD to a fOoLsPaRtY new member jackpot incentive fund. We might be able to grow quite a fund with the equivalent of a group "swear jar".

Another realization today, is that for the RAPP to have teeth, we need a way to call out others when their behavior is not in accordance with the reduction of aggression. Ten months ago, @brindleswan made $3.00 reposting this article about Periscope using "Flash Juries" to fight trolling:

It strikes us now that this could be another mechanism of use to the fOoLsPaRtY to handle those taking the RAPP, but not taking it seriously.
