Hi Justin, I am r0nd0n, one of the few witnesses that didn't run the **Soft**fork. And while I still don't agree with it in *principle*, you are doing a great job at proving those witnesses right. It seems like you have no idea what this community has been working towards for 4 years, so let's break this down:

>Are you willing to believe the sanctity of private property or do you just want to take innocent people’s hard earned money under toxic “consensus”?

No
>Are you willing to shorten the SP power-down period to 3-7 days from the current period?

No, not without a huge burn of tokens to offset any abuse that this could cause.
>Are you willing to remove the down-voting policy of STEEM blockchain?

No. And this is coming from a person who has ran @freezepeach for 3 years, a service that was created to fight against abusive downvotes. I have bias against downvotes, they can be very harmful to growth and sustainability of this platform, but they are still necessary and removing them would turn us into golos or what whaleshares was until they removed voting rewards mechanisms altogether.

>Are you willing to introduce smart contracts into the STEEM block chain?

More features can be beneficial, so I'm always open to them, but they must be tested and audited before I run the code.

>Are you willing to keep a good relationship with prestigious exchanges and increase our STEEM token value or do you just want to fuck them?

Fuck them how? By not allowing them to vote witnesses with custodial stake? Yes, I'll fuck them.

>Are you willing to protect the rights of the community members or do you just want to hurt and destroy those you disagree with?

I have been fighting downvote abuse, given a voice to minnows on @msp-waves, and helped thousands get started on steem in the PAL discord. I think my record speaks for itself.

>Are you willing to support Steemit, Inc. in accomplishing their job to increase our token value or do you just want to stab them in the back for your own interest?

Is this a joke to you? **Look at the 4 year history of this platform before you came along!**

>Are you willing to increase STEEM token value that benefits the whole community or do you only care about your own interest and don’t give a fuck about the real community?

See above about my record.

>Are you willing to welcome new investors in the future and include everyone into our community or do you just want to fuck those new investors, freeze their investment and kick them out?

See above about my record. My actions speak for themselves.

>Are you willing to always stick to the truth or will you just spread rumors to generate misunderstandings in the community and poison our community culture?

Like that "malicious hackers" rumor? Tu quoque, Mr. Sun.

>Do you like Justin Sun or you just want to fuck him?

I care about STEEM.

## With all that said, do not vote my witness! Go vote the ORIGINAL top 20 and take this chain back.

I hope we can work together Mr. Sun, I really do. You can make money, and we can make this chain better. But from this post, it doesn't sound like that's what you want. Tell us what you want out of this deal, and we can figure out something that works for all of us.
