RE: Witness Update -- Team Sircork
Sorry, Rhonda has stopped me from commenting further on this.
And I am really sorry she has. Because despite the desperate nature and breech of etiquette nearly anyone would agree with of posting direct private messages, which even I didn't stoop too when it could have ruined a certain top 20 witness anyway, you fail to understand that if you are not a top witness, you can talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk. And do nothing.
So if you really knew how to change the platform, and wanted to do so, you will have to try to do it another way now. An instant launch to position 65 paved through 24 hour a day work, diplomacy, fairness, sometimes a fight or two and always with attention to things that CAN be changed, is no longer an option, because YOU opted out, when disagreed with. TRY to pin that on me all you want, but I'm not the quitter and I will get to a place where I can help affect change, for the good of the platform, by not tilting at windmills and shooting my own feet on the way with foolish and hasty decision making.
That's just not how this place works.
I opted when disagreed with? I opted out when I realised I'm dealing with a fraud. I opted out when I showed you that @pennsif didn't unvote because of me and your reacted by continuing to blame me for loses that I TOLD YOU WE WOULD HAVE AND YOU SAID IT WOULD BE FINE. You broke the deal cork which was that if I lost us a vote we would be GOOD. You weren't good, you were a lunatic and made me out to be a terrible person for sticking to my principles like I told you I would.
And as for the "breech of etiquette" you've had plenty of time to (a) apologise (b) settle the block pay and (c) pay for your own damn witness node!
Name a number, you alluded to one that would suit you as earnings for your contribution. But then ran off and blocked and started acting hysterical on rhonda's post.
I'm around.
You have the numbers. What I paid you in bitcoin and what you owe me in steem for the second week. This could have went a lot smoother if you'd honoured the debt in the first place, or even smoother if you hadn't gone "hysterical" about the below.
No, let's expose to the world, what you need for reimbursement, since I've been called greedy here. I wouldn't want to second guess you since that's a moving target, and I'm not going to play this ridiculous screenshot game, by producing the one before that where same person indicates unvoting over your choices and erratic behavior with our community friends. Believe what he said to your face, that makes sense, as opposed to what he said first, behind your back. Logical.
Name your number to be happy. I wouldn't want anybody to think I assume you were greedy.
You mean this?
Where he asks why I flagged and jokes about being offended by me blocking him by DM? (Which he wasn't blocked from intentionally). But if you insist then fine. It's my fault you lost pennsif. Just ignore this. (again)
My keen usage stats are over on steemocean.com, where it was proven to be random nonsense being allegated there. And where it was proven I do twice as much curation as you, all for minnows, with a tiny almost non-existent self vote percentage. Despite not having a huge delegation to use for such things, squandered on flagging good people, to no avail, from an anti-flag delegator.
The parting of ways as witness partners was peaceful enough. What's happening here is another thing altogether. It seems more like an axe to grind. None of this should be trotted out in public, especially screenshots of conversations where no permission was granted to use them by the other party. I'm not sure what point is being made by all this. It's making otherwise reasonable people look immature and petty. That's not what I want for anyone involved here. We're all better people than this.
Rhonda you know I have every respect for you but you're being taken for a ride. It's a publicity stunt and always has been. I'm a fool for buckling and teaming up against my better judgement. I had thought with you there we could make a great influence, but I didn't expect cork to go completely against his word. I trusted him to be supportive if my stances lost him any support.
Yes I'm betraying him with the screenshots. I wasn't going to allow him to speak to me that way in private, and you and I both know he was a lot worse in that group chat that I can't access now. He's had more than 36 hours to think about his reaction and how it drove me away. But he's profited from it so I've heard nothing. He was completely calm and satisfied with the result. While I'm out of pocket after bringing him many voters.
Sorry not sorry.
