Please reinstate the Dsound deligation. This delegation ensures artists have the freedom to create and be rewarded.

Sort:  

@Ned - Steemit delegating to DSound is some of the best PR / customer acquisition dollars you can “spend”. @prc and the team he has built set the bar for what can be accomplished with a delegation, actively and -manually- curating content. If this platform is going to succeed, @dsound should be paraded around as ambassador and proof of concept, bringing creatives to the platform, not un-delegated in broad stroke cost cutting.

The community curated @dsound upvote -matters- to people wading into the waters here for the first time. The investment Steemit makes through its delegation creates the ripple effect that has hooked numerous crypto musicians on Steem as their platform of choice. Please consider your continued patronage of this community. It is what any Steem dapp should aspire to.

Yes we do all appreciate that you didn't need to delegate in the first place @Ned BUT that delegation is the reason that 1000s of us have started to believe in crypto as a way to earn regular income from our music. However in my opinion once an eco system is developed, albeit through altruistic means, those involved have a moral obligation to the community that become dependent on it.

Maybe you are unaware of just how many people have been affected by this? You are not short of a dollar or two I am sure but you have pulled the rug out from under the feet of people who have come to rely on the very generous @dsound upvote. Many from very low income areas of the world that this made a real difference to.

I would urge you to please reconsider your position on delegations. The thousands of independent musicians who have put in tens of thousands of hours on this platform thanks to @dsound would really appreciate it.

He's not unaware (other than being generally inept and clueless) he just doesn't care.

As far as I know they said on SteemFest that no project should rely on delegations and rather should find other investment methods to fund their expenses.

Bummer. I would hate to see the Steem version of SoundCloud fail because of a little more support needed to keep the community attractive. The delegation was removed without notice. Not very professional.
