People are different, they all have a right to their opinion. I enjoy both yours and Taraz post, and both of your unique takes on the chain and on life and on people in general, but then again I was always able to feel comfortable in a wide range of groups, (social constructs), while growing up. I had friends in all the various high school cliques and military cliques.
I was equally happy chatting with the chess team, (I was a member), as I was with the sports people, (I was a member of several sports teams). People have a tendency to want to pull people away from people they for what ever reason do not like, or choose to not like someone because they like someone, high school all over, even on the block chain.
I hope things will go well for you, and that the Hive attacks will not carry over to POB, I myself have decided that POB is no longer for me, and I am beginning to question whether I will continue in the social vein of the Hive block chain. Their is just to much dis-ingeniousness and a very sever lack of integrity and adult hood lately.
I had hoped for a more responsible social media type activity zone, but it seems every time one turns around Hive continues to degrade. I hope HF 25 will fix a few things, and I hope by HF 27 there is some serious discussions about the down vote issue, but I know it wont be.
