The SF was structured to protect the decentralised governance. Nobody (at least the far majority of Witnesses) wanted to go anywhere near forking off their stake, we simply wanted to have a place to talk, without having the chain overtaken (which happened now).

And the fact that you call the SF malicious, while **you** were in favor of burning it? Are you stupid? I told you already that burning it off is far too extreme, but you're calling the SF malicious? Again, are you stupid?

The SF was built on the promises (not to use the stake for voting & governance) by the previous owners of Steemit Inc. Nothing more, nothing less.

Since Justin is now the steerer of the ship, he made his move. Centralising the chain to bring change. I don't want to be the person who judges whether it's wrong or right, but one thing is for sure: @ned has always been full of shit and for the last 2+ years, he's been a useless idiot. He should have known that selling it to Tron, will result in this outcome. So either he's stupid/naive, or he never cared about decentralisation.

In favor of burning it *after the fact*. That way nobody could keep abusing it. I would have never voted to do this, never upgraded to 22.2. I get ***why*** you all did it. Who was benefitting from the SPS? Same people. Look, I don't agree with hijacking anything. And now we're all gonna pay the price for it. I don't blame them, I blame other people that were impatient and jumped the gun before there was any kind of actual talk aside from a marketing commercial. And yes, <b>I'M AS STUPID AS THEY GET.</b>

> In favor of burning it

It doesn't matter what comes after. Burning is only okay, if it's a whole new blockchain & branding. Nobody would have ever burned Steemit Incs stake like that, on the original Steem blockchain. Stop spreading lies.

Also, if Steem ever has only people like you left, then good riddance. Spineless idiot.

I agree. The witnesses probably should have tried to talk about this before taking actions to freeze steemit's accounts.

I remember the last time there was as little as a whisper about forking steemit's stakes, ned started powering down. They agreed such a thing won't happen as long as he accepted to use the stakes for development purposes, which he did.

Under new leadership, we should have reached out to rediscuss those terms first. But no, we had to act out of fear by freezing their stakes first. At that point, our intent didn't matter to Justin Sun. He bought the company with his money and he had to protect his assets from threats. 

I also think we must have been pretty dumb to think it was okay for ned to sell steemit with all that stake in the first place. If we believed it didn't belong to him, freezing it was a move we should have done a long, long time ago.

>"...we must have been pretty dumb to think it was okay for ned to sell steemit with all that stake..."

What part of what @ned did with his stake was your business?

@ned didn't do this.  He could have.  He had the power to do this for years, while we admired his hair, and didn't do it.

He *created* this blockchain.  He *allowed* you to speak freely on it - and now you blame him for @justinsunsteemit's actions?

Perhaps you fear your new overlord, and @ned never drove you to fear, because he was trustworthy.  Think about that.

I think Ned knew just what he was doing by selling to Tron. He knew how you would act. 

Sun would have known to call steemit, steemit and not steemy at the AMA.

think about this from the perspective of an angry person with a toy everyone wants that you own but no one likes you.

You malign and mischaracterize @ned, who held the power to do this in his hands for years and *never did it*.  But, given your propensity to deflect and divert attention to the motes in the eyes of others in order to conceal the log in your own, I am not surprised.

Bid botter.
