RE: The #nobidbot Tag is Growing at a Rapid Pace
Your point is well taken and I appreciate it.
I believe I am possibly not being able to properly articulate my position.
I really do not want to take any type of ownership away from @whatamidoing or the community. Not at all. I simply saw a way to expand on this by creating the @nobidbot blog. It is my intention to pour myself and my resources into this blog. And if it makes a few pennies that would be grand, but honestly, It will take a massive amount of work and the pay will probably be meager. Proceeds were to be split within the team so curation could be realized long term. Similar to @curie, curators are paid. Without this payment, curation would probably suffer. We also expect many volunteer curators.
But one way or the other, I fully support the #nobidbot tag and will always listen to community feedback.
This is a great movement, with or without the @nobidbot blog.
The important point is the blog and the tag are not the same. But if the community or he feels they are, then I will turn over the keys to @whatamidoing.
I really do not want any controversy to destroy the movement. It is too important.
Hope this makes sense.
If I may suggest a solution, it seems to me that all this could go away quickly if you recognized that not making @whatamidoing the first person you invited to your curation team was a mistake, and rectified it.
It’s ok. Honestly, I want to see what he does with his plan and I am not looking to work as a formal curator, I just want that account to represent the collective will of everyone involved and it seems he has agreed to that. If he uses a different account name for it, I don’t see any problem.
I'm content if that is your choice.
Fair enough, yet that was not actually the intention to exclude, but instead include.
Since, I already have a curation relationship with several individuals due to running one of the largest writing contests on Steemit here. I first picked from this group, as I felt very comfortable with one person in particular and knew I could both trust him with curation as well as keys to the site. We had already established a very fine working relationship and friendship.
After this, the mission was to put together a team of curators, that was to be his job, not mine.
But none of this matters any more, I am turning this over to @whatamidoing. I simply do not want any hard feelings or controversy to destroy this movement. I will move on to a different concept. WhatamIdoing and the team can pickup and run with it. I believe you folks will do well.
Blessings!
i thought and hoped you'd keep going with the concept, just change the name of the account
