Hi @steevc.
I'm Erick and I'm the President of BEN. I've been spearheading the Hive initiative to get more of our global network of blockchain students on Hive.
@CryptoFinally is a close friend of mine and after seeing the harassment she received from some top Hive stakeholders and this weird centralized Hive slack thing where upper ups trash talk other Hive content creators, I've lost a good chunk of motivation to help Hive and have to re-consider whether Hive is an environment I want to expose my students to. Students also haven't really been interested in Hive, although I do think Hive has potential.
I suggest you withdraw your delegation as this process could take a while as we figure out the next steps. Likely, if a student comes to us with a renewed interest in maintaining the BEN Hive profile, then it will continue on.
I'll post to the BEN profile every now and then to keep the ball rolling and grow momentum, but you'll likely find other projects more active than ours worth delegating too.
Sorry to hear that. I have not been following those matters, but it sounds like a certain whale took against her and maybe her reactions spurred him on. He is a bit of a troll and rising to the bait is the worst thing you can do.
Looking at this it seems she ignored advice from the good witnesses.
I think most people have a good experience of Hive and do not have to fear this mythical 'Hive slack'. The freedom we have here means that people can be dicks if they want to and some have enough power to do damage, but I don't think there is any big conspiracy, just people with multiple accounts they control.
Good luck in whatever you do.
