Thanks for a great comment. I'll jump to the story of the day:

*"When you get a break, please help me to understand in layman’s terms the reason I would pay money to join Steemit. A post by a very influential Steemian ;+) got a very mixed bag of attention in the comments section."*

This was a bad idea for a service. But, presumably, Jerry didn't know about the other sign up options and thought he could make one. He tried to do it with Vessel, which costs 30 Steem to make a new account. So, that's like $34 bucks, add a bit to cover fraud on Paypal (there's a lot) and you have yourself a poorly-conceptualized $50 service.

See all my comments on the related posts for more.

Omgoodness @ lexiconical, after a disastrous-upload experience today, I really needed a good laugh. 

I know you may not have been trying to be comedic about this; but, seriously, I'm having to keep myself from literally bursting out with laughter at your post...

_**…presumably, Jerry didn’t know…**_ (lol)… *Really*? 

I think he does things sometimes to get attention. I’m not sure I get this idea. It certainly doesn’t help his credibility a whole lot; but, something tells me he’s able to weather any negativity. 

_**…poorly-conceptualized…** 

Jerry would agree you are very kind for choosing such non-judgmental terminology. 

The average person would have said outright that this screams of scaaaaaammmmm.

(God, please forgive my humanness.) I’m having an Alexander day. 

Thanks @lexiconical for making it much better! 

I will be sure to read your comments. I’ve already begun laughing without a clue of what you’ve said.
 
Btw, I didn’t drop names…lol… However, I’m sure Jerry’s got a thick enough skin to handle the humor…in this case…all the way to the bank... Yikes! 

Peace.

*"…presumably, Jerry didn’t know…"*

Nobody has proven that he knew, or even advanced any particularly good evidence.

Here in the land of law, we still consider people innocent until proven guilty.

*"Jerry would agree you are very kind for choosing such non-judgmental terminology."*

To be fair, I think he called it dumb also.

*"scaaaaaammmmm"*

Yes, but the average person is an idiot who doesn't realize a stupidly high price does not constitute a scam. Paying for something you don't receive does.

*"Btw, I didn’t drop names…lol… However, I’m sure Jerry’s got a thick enough skin to handle the humor…in this case…all the way to the bank... Yikes!"*

Zing!

@lexiconical You are *sooooooooo* right about the law...

I'm thankful I'm taught not to judge; but, sometimes things are *soooooooo*, I have to be reminded...smh...lol...

Scam, sham, tomato, tamata...

Let's settle on Jerry's word: *dumb*.

All I can hope is that some unsuspecting wealthy septuagenarian with little knowledge of how things  work in the sometimes shady world of Steemit, doesn't fall for the dumb; and, puts the $ on the table. 

Then, I could see Steemit developers stepping in to file a misinformation-suit if they got sued.

Can you imagine a fellow-Steemian being a caretaker of a parent's account; and, seeing this withdrawal from the elder's account? Things could get dicey.

It's all conscience. Karma is reciprocal.

Peace.

My rule is to always assume the best, unless I *know* otherwise, or have a considerable amount of reason to believe otherwise.  It would be unwise for anyone to make public accusations of someone if they were not %100 certain(my opinion). 

Jerry is on thin ice, but I'm hoping that he will choose this moment to rise above and prove everyone wrong like I asked in <a href="https://steemit.com/steemads/@jerrybanfield/giving-100-of-my-witness-rewards-to-advertising-steem#@inquiringtimes/re-jerrybanfield-re-inquiringtimes-re-jerrybanfield-giving-100-of-my-witness-rewards-to-advertising-steem-20171013t190702166z">this comment</a>

_**I, for one, believe that you are trying". However, you've already admitted...**_

Thanks for your reply @inquiringtimes...I’m from the **fool-me-once-shame-on-you** crowd….and, *seriously* shy about giving you a chance to do so a second time, even question how/why I allowed you to dupe me in the first place. 

I won’t judge; but, I will trust my Inner-Voice (Holy Spirit) on the matter. He never fails me, even when I try to rationalize Him away.

Thanks for your reply.

Peace.
