RE: An Open Letter to @uyobong and @steemchurch Members
I sent a return memo to @crypto.piotr this morning, pointing him in the direction of the FAQs relating to Spam and Abuse.
I suspect most aren't aware that wallet-spamming links is on the list of donts.
@abh12345,
Thanks mate.
I've actually had substantial interaction with @crypto.piotr prior to this Contest and I believe him to be a good guy trying to do a good thing. Indeed, despite my obvious involvement with Power House Creatives (SteemitBloggers), I nominated him with mine and my daughter's account so that he'd have a chance at receiving 1,000 STEEM (the 19 teams that don't win the 20,000 STEEM Delegation still receive a 1,000 STEEM Delegation as consolation).
But I cannot condone his actions in this Contest.
In our numerous interactions, I wrote extensively about the deleterious effects of vote buying/selling upon the blockchain. Those deleterious effects Do Not disappear because you do it in the name of a noble cause. The ends do not justify the means.
That said, the critique in my Open Letter is not meant to be personal.

Hi
That's kind of you to support his nomination, I hope good choices are made by the contest owner and other voters.
Hopefully the words of encouragement from various parties will see a change in tact going forward.
Cheers

@abh12345,
Well said.

Dear @quillfire
I've read so many of your comments which are targeting my "good name" and discrediting me openly.
Would you mind at least backing up those accusations? It's really very painful that you guys decided to target me and few others for nothing else but sending mass memos.
I fully understand that this method of reaching out to people is not welcomed by everyone, but that is not reason strong enough to claim that I had anything to do with buying votes on this dpoll.
I really hope we can finally clear the air and move on. I regret taking part of this contest.
Regards
Piotr
Dear @abh12345, @quillfire
I received your link and it is obvious to me right away, that you do not want to be bothered with this method of communication. I respect that and I won't send you memos again in the future.
Personally I can hardly see the difference in reaching out to someone by sending memo (as this is very common here on Steemit, most of us are receiving few spam memos daily from bots) or mentioning same people within one post (like others did). After all in both cases result is very similar.
It would be great if Steemit would allow people to build their audience efficiently. But reality is that there are no tools that would allow people to become noticed. Sending memos is the only time-efficient way of doing it. That is sad reality.
Thank you again for sharing this link with me. If one day I will realize that witnesses and whales (using their bots) stopped any activity that looks like "spam" then I will follow their steps. So far they are giving very opposite example.
Yours
Piotr
