Currently there is a push to vote for community witnesses, and I support it. We as a community should be rallying to get our elected witnesses back into consensus, rather than having Tron controlled nodes there. We have 30 votes, use them all!

This also means removing your witness votes for witnesses who have taken the bribe to run Tron’s code. Watch your votes, ask questions if you have them.

But one thing that seems to have been over looked is voting for witnesses who are actually technically competent to even write and run code, as well as who have been a huge, HUGE, asset in securing the chain.. one of them being @netuoso

While I agree that getting the witnesses that are closest to the top in, I also think it’s important to have technical ones there as well.. and you have 30 votes. Use them all.

I have stayed behind the scenes for most of this, just trying to focus on news coverage, but felt this was something that needed to get put out.. as many who are working hard behind the scenes are not in the old top 20.. and this chain wouldn’t be secure without them.

Vote @Netuoso for witness


Others that could you one of your other 30 votes-

@guiltyparties
@ats-witness



These mentioned are what I would call technical witnesses and have been vital in securing the chain, while being low on the list still. I feel getting more technical witnesses further up the list is a good security measure at this time.

This is my opinion alone and advice based on what I’ve seen.

Excuse the shortness and lack of formatting here. I’m on mobile, at work.. and short on time, but felt it was an important message to get out.

Sort:  

Totally agree, @netuoso deserves a higher witness rank after his latest contributions.

ok thanks,

@justineh who do you think are are best negotiators / business people in the witness ranks?

i.e who could get deals done with justin

You’re trying to get me in trouble 😄

But I’m honest to a fault.. so here goes nothing -

It depends on your goals to be honest, each individual may have a different end goal here and therefore the discussion would go differently.

For me personally I would (and have voted) to see Blocktrades as the front man in any meeting. He not only understands the technical limitations of the chain, helped actually develop it, etc but also has an insider look at Steemit inc and the sale itself. He is also someone who Eli apparently requested to not be there.. even more reason imo - they know they can’t fool him. His goals are lined up with mine, he’s and intelligent individual with business experience as well.

Another would be Crimsonclad (followbtcnews), as while she never takes center stage, she is extremely knowledgeable and diplomatic. She knows this community and chain inside and out.

I also think Starkerz would be a good choice for a meeting, but he’s not currently in the top witnesses etc.. but would feel comfortable with him being in a meeting like this. I don’t necessarily think this is a place for top witnesses only tbh.

I will say that those I want nowhere near it would be Aggroed, thecryptodrive, or klye.. and I don’t care if I take heat for that.

That’s my honest opinion; and only that. 🙂

thank you

oh and appreciate the honesty, courage

after listening to the first meeting between JSun and witnesses, I have to agree that @starkerz is one of the few top witnesses who came off well. Most of them couldn't seem to get past the butthurt aggression phase, which is useless in working toward a win win scenario. And of course while I agree totally with premise that technical witnesses are needed and agree with a vote for @netuoso, I also have to agree with @jrcornel below that he shouldn't be in a forward facing position in meetings with JSun and Tron. To say he came off as un-diplomatic in that meeting would be understatement of century LOL

I'm sorry, are we being diplomatic to a terrorist that is holding the blockchain hostage? Yeah, keep me out of that shit please.

don't take offense dude - I absolutely think you should be a top witness. Your comment reply here is pretty much exactly the point I was making - you don't think you should be diplomatic, so why in the world should you be included in diplomacy? It is a contradiction in terms.

Diplomacy at it's finest! =D

Just keep on speaking the truth. Let the chips fall where they belong.

Oh, I had no idea about Eli & Blocktrades... Would it be possible to hear/read the full story somewhere?

There isn’t much of a story. It was said they want to have a meeting.

cool Blocktrades should play point man...

oh she said they prefer to not have him there...

yeah who cares what they want.

That’s my translation of the convo.. it was a very short part but yeah.

Hmm, I see... Thanks for sharing though, I appreciate it.

I agree for your choice of @netuoso, I also agree with what you said:

I don’t necessarily think this is a place for top witnesses only tbh

when it comes to the best negotiators. There are also people outside the top 20 Witnesses with a perfect knowledge of Steem, its history, its international community and knowing how to express themselves with reason, serenity and objectivity. From my point of view, the presence of this kind of person at the negotiating table is essential to its success.

Once the dust settles, for sure I'll be readjusting my votes. These folks who lost support took one for the team. They will not be neglected after all is said and done.

*edit. Fuck it. Done. You're right about them.

Done

I honestly feel too stupid when it comes to these stuff. Will you be kind and explain what I should be looking for in a good witness?

Vote for those who have a proper avatar and don't run version 0.22.5.

Sorry I have no idea what you are talking about! lol

If your go to the Witness page

https://steempeak.com/me/witnesses

it becomes pretty obvious:

How could you miss the grey band default avatar and blue marked version 0.22.5 of sock puppet accounts?

You can vote for anyone who doesn't have a default avatar and doesn't run version 0.22.5.

Done! Thank you for your help. I didn't know that website.

It's 10/10 again — looks like it worked ;-)

That's fine, but don't put him on the call with Justin again. Way too emotional and hostile to get meaningful negotiations done. This is business.

He's a child.
fify.

I don’t control what others do, or how a meeting goes.. if I did that call (which was short notice and unplanned) would have gone completely differently, and there would be no town halls where few are acting as if they speak for all.

This post is about having technical people in place for security reasons, that’s it.

Those town halls are a huge waste of breath.

Vote netuoso & unvote blockbrothers. They chose to stand with Justin.

Yes I didn’t want to call anyone out in the post but I believe both blockbrothers and Steemhunt have backed Tron now. This is dangerous imo.. and people should vote accordingly.

Steemhunt's witness is deactivated and blockbrothers' backing is already too low for them to get anywhere near consensus. Steemhunt is in Sun's camp (votes for sock puppets). Does blockbrothers do so?

hmm interesting. might need to find out why

I've readjusted my votes as it seems the important matter was getting any top 20 of our own real humans in the witness spots. However, I have voted for many witnesses I know little to nothing about, something I don't feel too comfortable with. As @nonameslefttouse stated, I too will be adjusting my votes again once all the dust settled.

Twas great to do bowling with you in Krakow. Let’s carry the spirit on and ‚play‘ this game. Steem on!

Thanks a lot for sharing the name of a worthy witness to vote on. I willunvote for sure those who accepted the bribe by tron. I hope you will inform us more about what's going on. I think the community needs and trust your opinion.
