And all the auto bots that comment on posts or vote with some tribe tokens?
The merit you have there is providing an access point for people who are actually from Mainland. And I won't argue against that even though I don't know how many people are actually from Mainland on Steem.
I have done more things than @aggroed, @blocktrades and @thecryptodrive(you know me) in term of contributions to CN community.
That like me saying I'm the only one reading and reviewing reports over at SFR.
Any witness out there cares about CN? NONE
And why would they if you are sitting in your own corner doing your own things? I don't think a direct confrontation with a top 20 will make the rest to start caring all of the sudden.
Also, there are other Chinese witnesses last time I checked. Why are they not pushing harder for your cause?
You have your community. There are greater communities outside of yours. Dialogues, man. Starting the war drum isn't the best way to build bridges. I actually respect @cjsdns a lot for seeking understanding before lashing out.
Look, I'm not here to start a flag war. I am just telling you how I feel.
I've observed quite a bit of pent-up tensions released since HF21/22. It's time for something more productive.
It's a big lose for STEEM to left out CN users since China has huge population and tons of money invest in cryptocurrency. I'm not starting a flag war, just a way to protect our CN users. I think STEEM needs to focus on improving the users experiences(On boarding, RC issue, etc) other than fighting for rewards.
The above witnesses you mentioned, I did voted @aagroed and @thecryptodrive as my witness, because they did make STEEM more than a blogging platform.
And do you think the Party will ever let people freely choose which ones to invest?
(That's a rhetorical question, don't answer that.)
Then, it would make more sense to have a heal trail instead of a flag trail. You don't want to play the war of attrition.
That's been discussed to death. Frankly, I don't think any one or any group has a sure fire way yet.
