Now do one for the Steem Community.
If you want Justin Sun to trust you and let Steem run in the current form, maybe act like you can handle it.
Maybe act like adults, stop making flip off posts, being idiots and having Witnesses threaten to fork out stake.
If we act hostile, a hostile take over it is.
if We can present some confidence and credibility that would help as well as some ability to cooperate.
I agree! I think folks need to be a touch more rational about this rather than freak out so much:)
Here is the thing: it's Justin 🌞 job to calm us down.
He is the one who have the raw power in his hands now, and all the rest of us can do is be prepared for the worst.
We can't blindly believe that things will get better now.
if this was a real world job, I would agree. I also agree it would be smart of him to do that.
That is not how I think it will play out though.
No, I don't think he cares that much about individuals and emotions.
People with huge amounts of money rarely do.
The right question to be asked is:
Does he care about the part of the community that will try to have some kind of 'resistance'?
I don't think so.
He got the brand, and the money to incentivize 95% of steem users to give up their tokens here and jump into his version on the tron blockchain.
Yeah, but if you've looked at Voice, they require you scan your passport or other government ID in order to join them. There's a lot of users who don't like that, witnesses included. It opens up too many doors of centralization that the Steem Blockchain seeks to counter.
You are right I prefer all the fake accounts steemit has to offer over rather than a one account / one person system
It will be easy to bring us over but it will be hard to get us building things and helping others and creating a healthy environment if money is all he can offer us. If that’s all he does he is in for spam city or an over regulated bore. I think he is smarter than that which is why I wrote this
You can't calm down every troll on the internet. And we also need a CEO who has his shit together more than the most overly emotional members of our community. Reaching out and trying to inform him is already a step towards building trust. We should get to know the guy before we try to sell him to our people. None of us had any say in this and I think he will understand our reservations if we talk to him. I'll make that post after I see what he does.
I totally agree you can't calm down trolls, what if they are large stakeholders and witnesses in your new project.... Would a good CEO go hands off, or get his own people in ASAP
If I am investing, I sure hope he gets rid of people who can't handle their emotions any better than that.
I don’t think considering a fork is beyond reasonable. And cracking down on people with dissenting opinions is a sure way to increase any skepticism the community has and discourage us to stay.
And as for us proving ourselves to him, it seems we already have. He bought.
If we have a CEO who supports the community, many of those people will calm down, and those who don’t we can work around like we have always done and find other ways to discourage their behavior without turning the place into a dictatorship
Agree. From their 53minutes ama video, I observed Justin is good in socialize and perhaps have good emotional intelligence. Ned might be slightly easy to get irritated and not so good at socializing, I think he is an introvert. Justin is confirmed extrovert,good sign for CEO of social media platforms.
Sure, I mean, I think that is how he's gotten where he is now. He is pretty charismatic when he speaks Chinese
Right? I can sense that too. Actually I don't really pay attention to Justin until this recent Steemit inc stuff happening. Ned deserve some credit for being smart on partnership with Justin too. At least being responsible for making sure steem blockhain will be in good hands before he finally disappear for good.
