RE: TimCliff Witness Update 2018-03-19
Here is more info on my views on flagging/downvoting:
I flag a lot of things that I see as abusive, but there is a difference between being a "large stakeholder" and being a "witness". A lot of witnesses are large stakeholders, but not all. As a witness, I see it as my role to focus more on the platform level changes that will incenvitize the best behavior, rather than getting involved in disputes that I don't have enough stake to fix.
Ok, thank you for the link and the explanation. It makes sense to focus where we can actually have an impact.
Although, every though many witnesses are not large stakeholders, they do have a reasonable following. And so I'm wondering if there could be a situation where a witness would 'rally the troops' to 'help' fix a dispute with a combined stake.
Anyway, thanks for the 'witness-category' clarification :)
