Thank you very much, I have to be honest this post was from the heart and composed late at night when I was already exhausted from work. It was built on feedback from other Steemians and my own feelings - write or wrong I wanted to make the points heard that I have myself and from other people I have spoken to one way or another.

The Steem Blockchain is incredible, I have no doubt about it - and I will support it and all the friends I have here to my grave. But it also needs to be fair, and everyone here whatever the stake deserves to know what is happening and why - and not just from a single post that is easily missed. Communication is key and I think it is essential this worked on - because the majority of upset and anger I have seen is because people have not been told what is happening - informing people is not hard, and should not be a second thought.

Thank you so much for the Witness vote, I really appreciate it. Just like I appreciate every single voter I have, it doesn't matter how much stake any voter has to me - the fact you are voting for me shows you appreciate the effort I put into Steem Blockchain.

I looked through your current Witness votes, you have a solid bunch of active Witnesses. Voting is so important and should be personal - it is what you feel the people you are voting for will do for you and to improve your Stake in the Steem Blockchain - add vale to the token so your investment grows. With that said look at who you vote for, how active they are - are they doing anything or just dormant earning Witness rewards without doing anything? Who to vote for, I would suggest good friends and active Steemians I have met over the last few years, @thekitchenfairy is just incredible - and so under valued as a Witness. @enginewitty - an advocate of the Steem Blockchain that has arranged countless real life meet ups, supports multiple communities including his own @thealliance, @guiltyparties who does incredible work keeping the blockchain spam free and is totally under appreciated, and @jackmiller who is always active and supporting of new ideas, a really nice guy when you talk to him - and while his straight talk sometimes upsets people - he tells it as it is. And that to me is important - I would rather here the truth then be fed some sweet talk.

Thank you again for visiting my post, I know you from Steem for a long time and have enjoyed many of your posts - I just can not get to every one I would like to every week - and I try my best to support the smallest accounts trying hard to grow - which is where my limited time goes.
