RE: Steemit is Free, But Your Witness Vote Determines its Future

in #witness-category7 years ago (edited)

Yes we do indeed know rather little about the witnesses. I wish the witness page itself would contain more details, not only about the technical side of witnessing but also about their personalities and ideals. Many claim to be good people and have grand plans, but few explain the details of such things to the rest of us.

Some people shouldn't be trusted with any form of power either. There are already some witnesses that I simply will not vote for, even though they are really good with the technology and mostly publicly appear quite jolly and well intentioned in their manners.

Sort:  

Thankfully, the amount of damage that any one bad witness can do is limited by the protocol.

Limited in terms of what one witness alone can do directly to the protocol yes, but not eliminated.

The people I'm speaking of are highly manipulative and already do plenty harm in the community from time to time. They don't need to spend their witnessing money or efforts on directly harming the protocol, or even intend to do so, just to make a dent.

Thankfully we've got people like you though Luke and a great community overall! :thumbsup:

a great community overall!

Agreed!

Thanks.
