It's weird, but most of us here haven't even seen a HF yet, while those of you who have been here longer have experienced up to 19. I'm sure not all of them were major, but a lot of them have changed the way things are done here pretty dramatically from what I've read and what you've mentioned.

So, knowing there were essentially 19 forks within the first year and none for all of the second and beginning of the third doesn't help patience any. Although, I guess there's different ways of looking at the sudden stop in HF. Meaning, it could be a good thing, that either a) they're not as necessary, or b) Steemit's taking their time so they get it right.

Anyway, maybe announcing things so far ahead and then missing announced deadlines then saying they're coming but when they're ready isn't the best way to rally the morale of the troops. :)
