RE: Steem Protection Soft Fork 0.22.2
If you disagree with the witnesses vote for other witnesses or run your own witness server and campaign for votes. Why do YOU step up and represent the community instead of "whining who moved the cheese" (whatever that ridiculous statement means)?
Why do those that do SO LITTLE expect their voices to be heard over others?
The soft fork is exactly that; a SOFT FORK. If the community ACTUALLY disapproved they could remove the consensus witnesses and replace them. Since that hasn't happened, guess you aren't able to speak for the entire community then.
The fork is literally for the benefit of every STEEM holder. And in fact, Justin Sun seems amicable to what we did and is being more open to engaging with witnesses that he was before.
I would say that is a SCREAMING SUCCESS. You are welcome for spending so much time to represent your best interest even if you are unaware what that actually is.
You should go back to basics. It's very easy.
Representatives should ask for their supporters. It should have been so.
It is wrong not to ask dignity even for your supporters.
Decentralization is not a system for making dictators.
You need to go back to the basics. Voters vote for representatives. The representatives then do whatever they feel is right in the interest of their voters. Or they do literally whatever they want.
A dictator would be 1 person that put themselves in office making a decision for everyone.
Witnesses have campaigned for votes, received them, and are in a position to behave how they deem fitting. If they behave in ways you don't like, remove your vote for them. You don't even have to wait for an election. Isn't that magical?
The fact that you are acting like you speak for the entire community shows that you deem yourself worthy of being a dictator and you are butt hurt that you didn't get your way.
Run a witness, campaign for votes, join the discussion, get active, do something. Or just sit there and cry about the people that have been elected to represent the community.
Apparently it is you that doesn't understand how the blockchain works. The COMMUNITY did not elect those 20 Top Witnesses. The votes of a very small minority of whales did. Which is not anywhere near the collective representative voice of a community.
