Risky? The Out-Of-The-Box Winners!

in Freewriters2 months ago (edited)

I thought about

starting a bookclub. Not the average one good for tea and cookies since we know how that rarely works out well. We might gather around the table for some entertainment but only one or two read the book and the rest pretends just like those famous 3 monkeys. 🙉 🙈 🙊 How hard is it to have a closer look? My experience is that once you start reading it's hard to stop. Unless the book is boring. I doubt it is if I tell you what to read.

Even if we don't like

books our day is full of letters and numbers filling our screens. An idiom popped up as I ran into something, after a cry for help, that I rather had not read. I was asked to ignore it again. Again?


Liegen is ook een vak
Of
Liegen is een kunst apart

Lying is also a profession
Or
Lying is an art in itself

The Art of Lying

is the Dutch title. It's a fact that lying can be learned and it starts with vocabulary. I have proof if one gets away with a lie it's a sign to continue. It's the same for scams and politics once at the top lying is called a skill and you get well paid for it.

I wonder if there's someone wiilling to take the risk? It will be me and no Nordoff-robbins music therapy will ne used to find the truth. I wonder is lying and cheating visual arts?

Thanks ma’am.. for the steem

Thanks!

Thank you very much Mama Kitty have a good day, and don't push yourself too much

Thanks Kitty! Also a book club sounds like fun. Usually I'm not cool enough to get invited. Have you thought about the format? Dedicated thread? Discussing chapters?

You are invited for the bookclub so super cool. Can you read the message?

I think the thread is worth trying. I answered you.

There's messages here? I'm a bit confused :-) Only saw you replying.

It's in the text - the bold words

Heh, fair enough. Thought you meant something else. This probably was just my undiagnosed dsylexia flaring up.

So you could read it. Everything is possible if it comes to creative writing. 😉

The answer is yes, I love both books and puzzles!

I've been trying to find this book you posted here by Alan Bradley, but I can't find it...

I'm a little lost, sometimes I understand things literally, but I'll wait for your answer😁

It is literally but also a message. I like to have information about something because it makes me uncomfortable and I can't lie. Can you read the bold printed words?

The book is part of a series (5 books), this is #3

@inspiracion @the-gorilla see 258 steem

Screenshot_20240820-191231_Samsung Internet.jpg

Hi @wakeupkitty,

Those 258 STEEM have been transferred to @sahar78's Binance account.

Presumably, she's intending to transfer 258 STEEM to all of the other Admins and Moderators in due course.

Alternatively, she has decided that Knack4Buzz doesn't require @steemcurator01 support or SECs any more.

It would probably be worthwhile you, @khursheedanwar, @chasad75 and @yancar discussing why the communtiy account exists and your joint expectations of how it should be used. Perhaps @sahar78 would also benefit from understanding the Steemit Team's expectations of a community account too.


Sorry for not replying to your other mentions / comments - things have been rather hectic recently.

Hello dear
@the-gorilla
I have seriously take an action at her act.This is true that she is co-founder of community and she have access to wallet also but this act is shameful to transfer STEEM to her binance account without discussing with any team member,not even with me.

I asked her to transfer community account STEEM back to community wallet as soon as possible.

Secondly, I want to say sorry at her act because due to her mistake,I can't afford any risk with my reputation and community reputation.She also apologize with me at her act and said that she wouldn't do any important thing without informing team members next time.

Hopefully, knack4buzz community dignity and reputation wouldn't affect due to her mistake.

Wishing a good day to you

What do you mean? You two are always in touch and post the same contests. You both rarely moderate or engage since you started this community. Not even as you confronted us with the SEC. Your excuses were that you were busy but you two had time to post and be active in different communities.

Actually, I already have idea that community account growth is important and we should be focused on all steem power ups but honestly speaking I was unaware that transferring a little portion of steem can be problematic thing for community.

I admit I am not the smartest kid in town and if it comes to maths..

500 + 258 that makes uh... 🤔

First thought? @sahar78 your little bit was 50% at the time you transferred it.

You have more than one community, dolphins, accounts and start more communities and say now you didn't know and it's just a small amout (50/50), no powering up because you have no idea that a community should grow but you know how to find your way to ask for SEC and how we should be a curator who to join and so on. I must say it baffles me you know everything but not how to powerup. I guess you never did and the dolphins just showed up one day.

@khursheedanwar I like to know what makes you think your reputation is good and it does not matter if we, the moderators, take the fall .
Yancar is for sure a poor bastard with a bad omen he always seems to join a community that doesn't know how to handle the finances.

But hey, it's good to see the community powered up and the next step is?
How about an interim admin and @sahar78 steps back and only moderates and comments so she has more time to get her newcomers certificate after she did some achievements.

🤔
@the-gorilla she wanted you for moderator how about being admin or the keyholder?
Or @mikitaly perhaps for a test period?

Thanks for the info. There's no sharing, no support, no moderating from the Admins side. We know nothing, are not informed, and whatever we say or ask...
Thanks for answering - the mods do their day and if you have a look you see many posts are not moderated not even from the last SEC contests.

Interesting word "team"

I know enough... think it's time to start two more communities. Take it easy, you responded just in time.

As joint Admin does @khursheedanwar have the keys as well?

Hello dear @steemcurator02

I have access to all keys as an admin or founder and @sahar78 also have access to all keys being a co-founder.
Remaining moderators of knack4buzz only have access to private posting key.

Wish you a blessed day 💕

Communities :( ...

Alternatively, she has decided that Knack4Buzz doesn't require @steemcurator01 support or SECs any more.

Hello @the-gorilla !!
Hope you'r doing well

It's my fault to not discuss with team about 258 steem withdrawal but it was not for any other purpose.I withdraw some of STEEM for using to give rewards to winners of community contests that when I have to give rewards to winners then little by little I will transfer them back that's why I have transferred a little amount.

This is my mistake to not inform anyone in my team about it.I apologize to every team member for that.

Remaining steem I powered up and just some are still in their liquid form in wallet.I know that Steemit team wants community account growth and we'll remain focused on it and I wouldn't withdraw any single steem from community account from next time.We always need support from @steemcurator01 and @steemcurator02 as well because without their support our community is nothing.We want to work for it's betterment and for it's growth.

Hope you understand..!!
Thanks a lot....!!

And why do you have to transfer the STEEM to Binance to give rewards to winners of community contests on Steem...?

#confused

First again I want to apologize sir 🙏

Actually, I already have idea that community account growth is important and we should be focused on all steem power ups but honestly speaking I was unaware that transferring a little portion of steem can be problematic thing for community.

I thought at that time that 258 steem are enough to distribute among winners for contests of one month so I transferred them at binance so that every week in time of need little by little I will transfer in community account wallet for transferring them to winners and remaining all tokens that will claim later I will power up and I did the same.

My fault is that I don't told any one about my action but I make sure that next time I will not transfer any single steem at any address and will not take any decision without asking from community team.

Well!! For now I have strict instructions from @khursheedanwar to transfer that 258 steem back to community account wallet so I am transferring them back.

Hope you will accept my apology and give me a chance to prove myself as best co-founder of this community.....

Thank you....

Hello, as a MOD I only have access to the public key to do my MOD and curation work.

I am completely unaware of the movements of the community account wallet, I am surprised that this withdrawal will not be reported.

I hope that friend @sahar78 has her appropriate words to explain it.

Happy and blessed day.

Hi @the-gorilla, I hope you are doing well.

On 20th August, I asked @wakeupkitty about why Sahar didnt set beneficiary as me in winners posts and only set 2 other mods. She said there was some issue in setting beneficiary more than 2 so I asked sahar about this. She said she will transfer it to me later. After that I just open the Knack4Buzz community account to check the transfers.

What I saw was 258 steem withdrawn out of the account. I talked to @wakeupkitty about this matter and she also saw it few minutes before me. I talked to her on telegram which I can only use with VPN connection as it is blocked in Pakistan.

Sahar didnt tell us about this transfer and we mods never ask her to send us steem because we know it is for powerup only. You can check my binance transactions below.

Capture.JPG

You can see I got no funds since 6th month. I talked with Sahar as well on Whatsapp about this withdrawal she said that she did only this time and will not do it again. She also said will do powerup of the remaining steem. So I didnt asked her anything further because we are mods and its their community. We are limited to only moderation so I asked her to not do again it will affect the community and not only community but also our reputation.

Below you can check after I saw the withdrawal, I immediately cancel my delegation for the community. Because I know this withdraw will affect mods as well even if we did nothing and not get any steem that was transferred from community account.

Thank you :)

It took me hours to get this link. Twitter has a new face or?

Por lo visto el libro no está disponible de manera gratuita. Sin embargo, creo que leeré algunas reseñas, y me lanzaré a la aventura de mentir, jeje.

Creo que eres una señora lista y ves las palabras gordas impresas. Construyen una frase y dejé pruebas en la sección de comentarios. Creo que un admin robando una nueva comunidad después de la primera SEC debe ser expuesto.

Si un niño puede resolver un asesinato ¿qué hace que los adultos tan ciego y dejar que los ladrones son curadores? Escribiré sobre ello hoy en SCB.

Si a steemit no le importa, no hay necesidad de mantener mi boca cerrada y encubrir lo que creo que es un comportamiento injusto y rastrero, casi criminal.
@inspiacion @mikitaly @pennsif o al que le importe - da la sensación de que a nadie si llega el caso.
Que tal si empiezo mi propio SDB como Agatha Christie hago punto y resuelvo el caso @steemchiller ¿que te parece?

I can write a detective horror free to read 🤔

#cmment #steemit #comunidades #curadores

These are always unpleasant situations, especially when an administrator of a community behaves this way, making it difficult to regain trust.

However, Steemcurator02's intervention is an important signal to continue trusting the entire system.

I hope that in this case, it was merely a mistake due to carelessness, but when dealing with the funds in a community's account, one cannot handle them lightly or without consulting the other administrators.

Every team managing a community must have clear and precise rules regarding fund management. No one should take initiatives without consulting others.
It's a matter of trust and respect.

Now, the community and the knack4buzz team members will need to determine whether they still trust their co-founder or ask her to step back from managing the wallet to restore credibility to the entire Community.

@mikitaly

I have respect for opinion you have shared.
Every point is clear for me that you have explained regarding this whole matter.Without any team member consultation she take withdrawal but according to her she was unaware of taking withdrawal from community so I have finally decided to give her this chance because If it is really done unintentionally then she deserves this last chance.
Regarding my trust,it is still maintained on her and I think she is right that whole matter were merely due to her lack of awareness regarding withdrawal matter from community.
She needs to learn more so I want to just give her warning ⚠️,for now she apologize and also transferred all steem back to Community so there's no penalty for her now.Matter has been resolved almost.
I hope that she'll regain her trust through her honesty.

It's true, a second chance is something no one should be denied, especially if the action was taken in good faith and without experience.
Over time, she will be able to demonstrate her reliability.
I wish you all the best for your future and for the future of your Community.😊

Exactly.Being a human mistakes can be done from all of us.
Giving chance is not at all a wrong option.
Now we all need to prove ourself again one of most hardworking team for regaining trust of everyone in our community.

Thank you for understanding and for allocating your precious time here and for your best wishes.
Good day 💕

Not we all but you! It is your community and so far you didn't show your face. 🤔

You don't pay me I volunteer and paid for the prizes also twice the nominations because you are careless. Like I said from day number one: You started this and you are the one who should work himself to death!

Your job, your private life, religious celebrations are no excuse, you knew before you started this.

Good luck!

Next,no mistakes will be done in future,I assure you!One time I remember I pay you but don't remember about second time so I am going to transfer you 15 steem as these are yours.
Exactly whatever the problem is, community is first priority for me if I have started this.

Thanks for wishing good luck to me.I am going to make everything more smooth by your help.

Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to share your opinion.

Trust and respect - I don't think the admins ever trusted and respected the moderators.

🍀♥️

When there are problems, I think that only discussing them openly can help to improve the situation.

 2 months ago 

We discussed a lot but what if nothing changes?

The risk is there.
But even if nothing changes, at least we tried to do something and we don't give up.

That depends on the situation. If it comes to mods and they pull a car that isn't theirs why is it they are not allowed to leave? To me this is volunteering and it is my (free) time I invest. If it comes to it all I want is writing and reading stories. That was why I've been asked.

So my try is to help/teach writing which I would also do without being paid. The reason? To improve what is written or more posted. I am fine with one great photo and a few lines.

Hi there, your comment is interesting to read, keep up your engagement, you are awesome!

Creo que hay muchos concursos acá sobre valores éticos y morales. Las participaciones son tan buenas, que hasta se pudiera escribir un libro impreso con ellas. El detalle es la "disonancia cognitiva". No todo el mundo está dispuesto a actuar de acuerdo con lo que piensa. Tal vez por eso las sociedades vayan hacia un barranco. La pregunta es: ¿Tiene sentido ser honrado?

Desde mi punto de vista: Sí, pues no actúo para que los demás me valoren, sino de acuerdo con mis ideas y pensamientos. De modo que ser mentirosa y ladrona no va conmigo.

A mí me pasa lo mismo. También significa que no te quieren si dices la verdad y quieres que se respondan las preguntas.

Veamos qué más podemos leer. ¿Un poema por ejemplo? Podemos discutir una de las entradas de Artb& Writing.

😁

Jajaja. Buena idea.

Just now I just understood everything, about what you meant with the bold letters.

This situation is unfortunately not new, there are those who only want to be able to obtain instant benefits from the platform, without paying much attention to the objectives that the Steemit team has, for example.

And of course those of us who appreciate the platform care.

I will tell you that what I have learned is that just like in the world, I think that on Steemit there are more honest people than dishonest ones. And when there are lies, they are always discovered, just as you have stated.

At this point, I still wonder if these people really do this unconsciously, if they really don't realize what it means to be in a team, and to work as a team... There may be that level of unconsciousness.

I hope that awareness is greater among everyone so that these events are the exception and not the rule...

I knew you figured it out. How about lessons with symbolism, and hidden messages? It will help to look closer, study, and see details and it triggers creativity. Unfortunately, in this case, it is done intentionally and it started from day number 1. I don't need apologies but I like to see some change but that won't happen if the wrong ones are blamed.

I try to write more details for challenger tomorrow, you see me on Telegram.

Books are wonderful learning materials and I love them so much to the extent I began to write storybooks when I was in primary school.

I get alot of inspiration and I wrote 30 storybooks for years but I haven't written a book for a very long time now, it takes alot of time to write a book.

You can join NaNoWriMo daily writing in November. At the end of the month you have your novel.

Hmm by November I might be very busy.

Then start now or in September it's a habit about daily writing. You don't need an event for that. The freewriters joined for a few years and we used the daily prompt.

Yes os a daily something and I have been into the system for more than 7 years. I wrote more short novels during the 2019 lock down.

I haven't written anyone since the joined steemit so I don't really think I will have that chance again especially this period because am preparing for exams for next month.
