Say what you want. I don't expect anyone to suck up to me. My vote is only worth cents for now anyway. Downvotes are an essential part of Steem. Many who get them are trying to rip off the rewards. I can't just stand by and see that happen. I want the best for Steem and for those who put in the real effort to get rewarded. I just can't do much against big accounts.

The softfork was just a defensive measure to enforce what Steemit said they would do anyway. We don't know Justin or his motives and the witnesses want to protect what we have all built up. It's not just self-interest.

There are bots and there are people. Either can be good or evil. I judge each case for myself and use the Steem I earned and bought to react accordingly.

Peace.
