RE: Help Us Launch The First Steemit Marketing Initiative That Pays You To Refer
It's simple really. I know what I'm talking about. I know the massive things Michael and I are working on for the benefit of BitShares and Steemit and I know that this is not a scam.
I understand your guilt by association theory. So I am putting my reputation on the line to counteract that unfair behavior. Now you have two reputations to try to smear.
He already threatens my reputation: "And I say this to you too: By defending a scammer you are ruining your own reputation."
"A demagogue /ˈdɛməɡɒɡ/ (from Greek δημαγωγός, a popular leader, a leader of the mob, from δῆμος, people, populace, the commons + ἀγωγός leading, leader)[1] or rabble-rouser is a leader in a democracy who gains popularity by exploiting prejudice and ignorance among the common people, whipping up the passions of the crowd and shutting down reasoned deliberation.[1][2][3] Demagogues have usually advocated immediate, violent action to address a national crisis while accusing moderate and thoughtful opponents of weakness or disloyalty. Demagogues violate established rules of political conduct. Most demagogues who were elected to high office changed their democracy into some form of dictatorship."

Stan, with all due respect, it's not as much your reputation that we are caring about as much as that of @dan, @ned and Steem/Steemit. I've been following Dan's work since the very beginning of Bitshares. I'm a very senior developer myself, and I have to say that I am humbled by what Dan and his dev team have been achieving in such a short time. And at the same time I am totally underwhelmed and at times sickened by the very poor marketing of his projects. There is no question that Graphene is a software chef-d'oeuvre and Bitshares and Steem mind blowing social and economic experiments. It really makes me sick to see the otherwise stellar reputation these projects could have be tarnished by getting associated with the type of crappy marketing ploy and sketchy individuals we are discussing about here. As Dan's father, I wish you cared more for your genius son's reputation than that of your sketchy friends. Enough said.
You know nothing about mass marketing appeal. Sorry.
Wait and see.
