They aren't going around saying "apps dont need blockchains, blockchains need apps" and "neither hive nor steem offer any incentive to build a business on" while sucking the teet of the Steem/Hive reward pool and begging for delegations.

Your team shows a fundamental lack of knowledge regarding what a blockchain is, at least JPPhotography, and how to present your product/company as an investment opportunity.

It is your job to sell yourself to me not vice versa.

Asking for delegations yes, who didn't with a project or applications but you can't say that we've been deep down the crack, leaving it spiffy clean just to get a delegation.

So now projects supporting STEEM who are not us or ok on HIVE? You said it!

Yes, as an investor I would love to work with your team. /s

You guys repel investors; and you are surprised you lack funding.

You guys have no real traffic; and you are surprised you lack funding.

You keep wasting time with me, an individual that wants nothing to do with TravelFeed, instead of working internally with your team and improving your app/product to be more inviting to investors. Keep wasting time arguing in the comments. And it isn't just one of your team, but several.

I spend some time, as a Hive stakeholder, curating content on the blockchain. That means upvoting valuable content and downvoting non-valuable or abusive content. I have made my mind up regarding TravelFeed and when I see the posts I will vote accordingly.

Have a good day, sir.

Since you guys can’t seem to actually listen to anything anyone is telling you and are not open to actually working with anyone.. just being assholes on social media.. I’ll copy my reply to this comment below here:

Ok this is just ridiculous. So let's actually discuss why JP was pretty much told to GTFO as it's not about running on both Hive and Steem, as many apps are doing.BA0964FD5FCE4F0C822E21371D31F56E.jpeg
Rather due to the fact that there was absolutely no personal responsibility as well as blaming everyone else for the issues TF faced after the HF (which they had prior knowledge of).The "issues" outlined in the announcement about API's being unreliable- 47048D1C22D44DB782693F680084B043.jpeg197C0D7F378844D2AF1547CB37BB505F.jpeg So a free service that Anyx provides (and Travelfeed depends on) announced they would be moving to Hive. JP didn't read this announcement and felt anyx should have come to him directly. And now let's get to the real issue here as it was stated that there was no time or help offered to get TF implemented to Hive in time as you only heard of the HF 3 days before (not the day before as you say in your post)- 5750AA17935844B888F63E06ED4E7B74.jpeg405D29B71E6949548437D2BA34AC9F66.jpegD845C027F1294FB6922DBD5471CDC056.jpegBAEBD8EA346A4FCA938D30015B5F3932.jpegC065F112BE554AB4A5DAA8A8337058AB.jpeg80E3D8065EEF459A9E65DD481BBE7B9F.jpegEFCF90DBD4B94283BF6A4394222BE2BD.jpeg75D86F660F344422991FA73A7380D5F6.jpeg71E93514FC194B0A8FDCAFEF32C87499.jpeg68564A4A51CC4954ABF0DCE894E318B0.jpegFF7853FF21B544C88FA1F8922E7D00FA.jpegC51D4FD041E9414AADFE9A65DDE3CED2.jpeg
So again he mentioned the frustration was that Travelfeed wasn't offered funding to come to Hive (as well, it's clear that is the only real issue here)

He ignored the fact that there was a chain being built and it was a bit chaotic. That many people were working together to ensure apps could migrate easily and everyone was working together.. as a team.. to ensure Hive was ready. All without funding. \n\nSo then it was shown why Steem is an important factor for TF -BA63FFCE55E6495892EA6F2891A4C620.jpegFC66A94B328641DD9B2D5879C6A2C007.jpeg

There was some discussion about how stating there was no incentive to build on either chain at the same time as using the rewards pool to incentivize users to post on TF as well as apply for delegation and essentially demand funding seemed a bit hypocritical... but he didn't want to hear it. He then went on to tell us all we were idiots. And that Steemit inc was clearly more intelligent than anyone at Hive because they would give you all delegations.

Mind you, during this.. many asked how much delegation was needed and actually stated they would have supported TF, but considering we all were still setting up the base infrastructure of the Hive chain, funding dApps hadn't come up yet.

JP’s inability to take any sort of personal responsibility as well as repeatedly stating that there was no value in Hive (accept of course the want to suck from the rewards pool) and essentially being an absolute asshole is the reason he was eventually removed from a chat room focused on Hive - as it was clear he had no interest in being there.

So, thanks so much for playing.. hopefully you get that Steemit inc delegation as it's clear that's your only focus.

You're all mad that we took matters into our own hands? Are we after funding and delegations? What business isn't? Are we looking out for the interest of our users, hell yeah. Are we going to still exist with or without delegations, em yes! I think you'll extremely nervous realizing that there is a flaw in the way your "decentralization" is set up. Did some things all of sudden pop up, the "Inner Circle" hasn't thought about? Yeah, y'all continue to be mad at us, your welcome!

Don't pretend there was ever room for any other applications or curation project outside of the "inner circle". And please don't make it all about US SUPPORTING STEEM - we leave it into the hands of our users to decide where to publish their content. Will Hive and Steem be the only blockchains our users can publish to, no! Matter of fact we're talking to an other blockchain next week. And there are more to come.

Also your tone is more than unprofessional, so is posting chats of others which were semi private.

It seems like we were hitting some sensitive nerves without even trying:

Doesn't really matter what some individual users are mad at right? Because your users (the few you have) are what is important.

Focus on building something worth an investor's attention and THEN go seek investment. At the moment, you dont have any real product and apparently WE hit some nerves to get your entire team showing great PR in the comments.

I am sure investors are watching your company replies and thinking "now that is a team I want to work with!".

Imagine how your answers look like to outside of the Inner Circle developers.

Doesn't look too tempting to me!

You respond with gifs in your comments while representing a "business" seeking investors and delegations.

You can't make this shit up.

Gifs seem to be the only thing to get through to you!

Business talk is looooong gone ... time to have some fun!

No one is mad except you all.. who is going around bashing projects apparently based on “no help”.. when in fact it’s due to the fact no one offered you money to migrate.

I see no issue with looking for delegations or anything else.. but it’s a bit weird to say there is no value in building on a platform at the same time as wanting funding from it.

There is no inner circle.. there are a hundred plus people working their ass off together to make something. The excuses are lame.

Also, I’m not a professional.. I’m just some asshole on the internet who used to support you. And it’s a bit weird to question someone’s professionalism when responding in gifs tbh.

Felt the screenshots were pretty relevant as you guys are trying to spin something else.. no one cares if TF is on both chains and it probably would have gotten support if you guys would have went about it a different way.

Good luck.

Lol. You think someone’s Individual account they made which apparently is for an upcoming project is proof of an inner circle? 😂

Are you serious?

I think you're going to be quite surprised once you find out what innerHive actually is.

Thanks for the laugh, moron.
