RE: Announcing the Delegation Committee

in #committee5 years ago

So two techies and a college chemist are deciding on business/finances and social media influence?

Makes perfect sense to me. What a diverse and knowledgable “committee.”

And since this wasn’t answered from the last post...

How much total STEEM will be available from Steemit, Inc. accounts for this delegation program?

Sort:  

I work with Matt & can personally vouch for his work ethic and a keen eye to details. As the post says, he has managed multi-billion dollar projects, so he is overkill when talking about managing the delegation of millions of dollars in Steem.
The reputation for Aggroed speaks for itself & Eonwarped is very highly trusted & respected in the Steem community. I think it is a great starting lineup.

I have no problem with @eonwarped and told him as much myself.

The other two? They already have too many entanglements with other Steem projects and I see no need for them to be on a three-person committee.

And I'm sorry...I'm not impressed with these resumes. I have no idea who Matt is and what these "billion-dollar" projects are. I can only tell you that not many people could accurately explain what Oracle-D is or does and 3speak has been quite messy so far. The Steem Business Alliance is pretty much unknown and hasn't really done much to date either. So based on his Steem "success," we don't have much to go on to judge his "keen eye" and to gauge his achievements.

If these guys are on a larger committee, then that's great. But a three-person committee to decide on the future membership of the committee and doling out delegations? It could have been done much better. And that's a severe understatement.

Did you even read the post?;)

10 years working for startups and giant conglomerates
managing multi-billion dollar industrial projects

And one techie guy :D

“Working for” isn’t exactly managing.

And “managing multi-billion dollar” projects can be claimed by anyone. I’d be interested to know what those projects were and how he “managed” them.

Inflating resumes is easy to do. Did you know that I own a company with $783 million dollars in assets? I’ve also operated two non-profits that have given over half a billion dollars to third-world medical facilities and school programs.

Maybe I should be on a committee too! Where do I apply? :)

Why would they delegate free steem when people can go out and invest, it’s like a free chance at business when it’s not your money at stake

Yeah, I tried making this point when they announced their new delegation plans. Nobody seems to understand how harmful their delegation practices have been, are, and will continue to be.

So they can delegate it to themselves disguised as someone else? Then break da rules, circle jerk it off some more, pretend to be nice and cancel the delegation and look like the upstanding STINC, rinse & repeat! I don't know any other reason? If it is STINC it is STINC! lol good point made me think again? hmmm...

sorry, your too ugly

😂😂😂 you win steemit today.

His what is too ugly?!

Baraka is too ugly? Sounds pretty racist to me. :)

lol, i'm amazed anyone votes for you as witness with teeth like that. i mean you look like someone who would eat my children! oh wait i do vote for you haha. Cassie Cage or sub zero maybe:)

If people don’t vote for me, I eat their children. I wish more users around here had children. :(

I voted for him because of his profile pic.

Did you know that I own a company with $783 million dollars in assets?

That's all?

That’s just one company. I own eleventy-six others.

I own all the land and every chicken.

Unhand my cocks sir!

Dixon Cox? Is that you?

I'd vote for that.

I'll also be a canary in the coal mine.

Agree.
This post looks more like a reputation polishing..^^

Maybe I should be on a committee too! Where do I apply? :)

@ats-david:

I have the hunch... that I should be launching myself as a candidate for this committee too. };)

Here you can find the info you need:
https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-starkey-90ba2719/

I've met Matt personally and he's given me no reason to think he was embellishing his past work experience (due to copious amounts of details he's added). Of course, I'm just a random guy on the internet, but I'm merely stating my own experiences with Matt. Given that there are other people here who've had similar experiences, I'd say that it's fairly trustworthy to use these opinions as some form of vetting.

I’m sure he’s smart and a nice guy and, as an engineer, has worked with projects where assets and equipment were worth a lot of money. That’s great.

But what does that have to do with identifying and vetting legit startups and other businesses and what does it have to do with or tie into the social media aspects of this platform?

We really don’t need more tech and engineering types making decisions about “winners and losers” around here...which was my original point.

To be fair, aggy has proven himself (at least to me) as very savvy on the social and token economics side.

By "savvy" do you mean "pandering to 'minnows' as a faux populist?"

And by "token economics" do you mean that he created a (questionably legal) centralized shittoken creation service and exchange and offers people Steemit clones?

You must be easily impressed!

amirite? :)


You have been rewarded with some SHIT! Take a trip to the bathroom to stake and manage your worthless tokens.

Here's why it makes sense.

  1. @aggroed has 10 years of start-up experience, with his most recent personal endeavor contributing to 20% of the daily usership on the blockchain, with a net positive contribution to the value of steem. Chemistry? Sure. He's figured out the formula. He could have had Matt build this elsewhere, and chose to do it here.

  2. @aeonwarped - are you kidding me? He and @holger80 wrote the steem engine Nitrous and user interface when it's the closest thing we have to SMT's (which YOU said we were not ready for. But I digress) with a liquid 600,000 steem and counting. Tell me what you don't like about that.

  3. And @starkerz? Inflated resume? takes deep breath....takes another deep breath....counts to ten You know you're pushing if you piss off littlescribe.

So here's my analysis -

a) you're doing it for the ratings
b) you're jealous
c) you need to get laid

I could probably help you with one or two of those, but I'm not going to say which.

And/Or tell me who you would recommend in their place. And I'll tell you if I disagree.

Oh no, I can't take credit for all of the SMT-lookalike. @holger80 deserves most of the credit in that. I manage the front ends that talk to the bot that he set up. But I'll grant that I am an important part of it all too :)

Now that Ats went after everyones CVs i have to ask one question:

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? ...

😂😂😂

How many billion dollar projects have you managed Eon? Huh?
Any less then 3 and youre out!

We dont want no million dollar project freeloaders up in here.

OK. I made the correction. But I guess it doesn't matter cuz I got hid. How can you tell who hid you? Is there any way?

This is the first time I've ever been 'HIDDEN'. I feel like I've reached a whole new level.

Yes, unhide the comment and click the votes count. Ats downvoted.

Hey. Who's that guy hiding in the trees behind you?

I dunno but I checked my other photos and he seems to be everywhere. Should I be worried?

No, don't be worried. It's me.

In the post, it says this committee is free to include others in this process. Who would you recommend they include?
