It is a losing battle under current rules.
This is a very sad observation of the state of the platform. I wonder if it pains you at all to say that about what should have been a shining example of your proof of stake concept.
It seems to me that current management has shown that they are uninterested in changing the rules in a way that meets any of your suggestions, instead relying on the "self policing" mentality which continues to prove to be an unacceptable solution.
We will see what the future holds. Thanks again!
