RE: Jerry Banfield sold his witness account and is now producing

in #witness6 years ago

Whatever the split is, Jerry is benefiting. I will never support that witness, regardless of who is actually running it.

To me, it's a pretty sleazy deal to strike with Jerry. This jrswab may be a great guy with the best intentions, but this actually reflects very poorly on his judgement.

Sort:  

I read elsewhere in the comments that @jrswab took the deal on the condition that Banfield stop slinging shit about Steem on other platforms. In that case maybe it's not the worst thing ever.

I still wouldn't vote Banfield, not in a million years, but... yeah. I'm just gonna reserve judgement.

Yes this is the arrangement between Jerry and I. If he keeps bashing steem I'll turn off the witness. No one is asking you to vote for Jerry's witness. I understand why people don't want to and it alright with me.

That is fair enough but wouldn't it just be easier to let the fucker not be a part of the group? He has already said and done the actions that hurt us. Why do you think the former person running his witness dropped him?

@ats-david, no one is asking you to support Jerry's witness. I got into this fulling know some people would not be happy but how is this any different than privex hosting many witness servers or even someguy123 running servers for other people? Calling this deal sleezy you may as well call the others sleezy too.

The others do not involve Jerry, Jerry is the variable here that is different. This move will also put any other project you work on in the shadow of being associated with him. Did you not just witness the Dlive trust issue? Working with Jerry is like being part of the Dlive team and posting on Steemit.
