I'm still banned from steemit's github
[![steemitab948.png]()](http://www.steemimg.com/image/eVKvj)

This is the level of cooperation you should expect when trying to build on steemit if you happen to disagree with an aspect of the software, like its API.  

A healthier response might be to ask what's wrong.  Oh, by the way, here's my last interaction with anything steem-related on github:

[![steemit2a0df7.png]()](http://www.steemimg.com/image/eVOeD)

Somehow, I don't think that was deserving of a ban.  

Here are my commits:

[![steemit3608d9.png]()](http://www.steemimg.com/image/eVm5m)

My issues:

[![steemit47bb3c.png]()](http://www.steemimg.com/image/eVkAZ)

but don't take my word for it!

https://www.google.com.kh/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=site:github.com+steem+faddat&start=30&*

As you can see I was quite the steem-booster back in the day.  I wonder how someone goes from steem-booster to someone who totally loves the ideas behind the site, but cannot really stand to care about it?  

Hm.  Maybe it's the total hostility.  

And yes, I did totally mistake the baroque security setup as a security bug.  I should surely be tarred and feathered for that.  But since I wasn't banned at that time, well, then-- why?  I contribute to a number of open source projects and I've not been banned from any of their githubs.  What, pray-tell, was so offensive about asking someone how they built an API?   

PS: to steemit admins

The readme I wrote for condenser is out of date, and I can't update it.   The readme you wrote for steemd was never up to date, and I can't update it.  

back to work on fuz's site.  

Update:  Please go ahead and resteem/share/what have you. 

Oh, and do see my [post about ingestron's 0.0.2 release](https://steemit.com/steemit/@faddat/ingestron-0-0-2-released-for-every-platform-imaginable)!

So no one should be surprised when I fulfill my obligations here, take my keyboard, and never come back.  Ingestron and the front end generator I am pairing it with should be thought of as a service to one person only.  Steemit, inc has made it abundantly clear that I am not welcome in their software development process.

Oh, BUT--

I'm going to build this stuff well enough that people will be using it for years to come.  And it'll be open source and I don't ban people from any of my repos ever:  It completely defeats the inclusive spirit and positive purpose of open source software.

I agree and will contact @sneak in steemchat to ask him why or who was responsible for your ban, no reason was give and it's safe to assume it was not justifiable.

Unproductive, accusatory drama posts that fail to assume good faith like this one (and others in your history) are why you've been removed from our slack and github.

Good luck with your altcoin.

Fail to assume good faith like this one?  

What kind of good faith should I be assuming, @sneak?  

You're turning down help you need, and you're totally negating the anti-exclusionary features of OPEN software development.  It's stupid, and harms progress here, that's all.  Wouldn't you like docs that match your code?

....or are you just afraid of my altcoin?  If you are, that's the height of stupidity.  It's my intent to grow steem's user-base alongside Dawn's.  Don't believe me? 

Fine.  

Watch me.

Edit:  I'm really not so sure about that plan anymore.

Is it policy to disallow users who criticise the platform, up to and including FUD, to contribute to the GitHub projects? Seems quite strict. I read the comments and issues raised by @faddat that were available on GitHub (i.e. any that were not delete) and apart from some somewhat unprofessional language, there was nothing objectionable there.

I think he really means posts like the one above that carry substantial technical weight and point to systemic flaws.  

But here is the biggest systemic flaw, which we are all watching play out right now at this moment:  

Steemit.com is not decentralized.  It's just something some company made and owns and therefore controls.

He's not banned for criticism, he's banned for being a jerk. We've no time for that, and anyone who saps our resources in a similarly unproductive manner is unwelcome.

This post continues the trend. I hope he goes away. I have him muted presently on Steemit and will be spending no more time on the matter.

I tend to agree with you @faddat, but I'm not surprised at all. Your being banned is just a reflection of the same attitude that caused @dantheman to depart the platform. "They" want (proprietary?) control over the platform, and apparently believe locking out contributors rather than control the process of what is chosen to be added from those contributions is the best way to achieve that control. I totally disagree with that approach. Just b/c you solicit contributions from anyone, doesn't obligate you to use every contribution. "They" don't see it that way, which reflects their lack of knowledge about the benefits of the OSS development model.

As to your point that the docs and other info is always out of date - YES, that happens a lot within startup companies who are frantically worked to evolve a product out the door, docs always lag behind. It's a common problem, especially in crypto projects, but not unique to them.

It's not really that they're not using my contributions.  

It's that I cannot submit them at all.  

It's as if everything's perfect here, in the minds of those who banned me.  

And surely, these are not unique problems.  And if I were allowed to help solve them, well, they'd be solved.  And steemit would have fewer problems.
