The Reports from the Witnesses 2018-04-01
The Reports from the Witnesses aims to provide the community with a summary of what all the witnesses have been up to. Every week, I collect all of the reports from the individual witnesses and assemble them into a single aggregated report. New witness announcements and witness suspension announcements are included in the report as well.
Witnesses can continue posting their posts to the witness-category and/or witness-update tags, and I will assemble everything I find there. If I miss any reports, just let me know and I will correct it. If you want to direct message me a report via chat, that is fine too.
Historic Reports from the Witnesses can be found here:

So without further ado, I bring you the sixty seventh edition of 'Reports from the Witnesses'!

Some Notes:
- Many witnesses do not report every week, and prefer to only report when they have updates.
- I recommend that you include communication as one of your criteria for evaluating witnesses, but keep in mind - it is not the only criteria. There are some witnesses that prefer to work "behind the scenes", and do not do much as far as reports.
- For witnesses that are not currently posting any reports, I would encourage you to provide the community with at least some insight into what you are currently working on :)

Is there a difference between rewards on threads and rewards on comments?
I noticed that on a thread, the author can self upvote immediately, but not on comments.
I saw a claim that there is a difference.
If a thread or a comment bears rewards over 0.02$ 7 days past its posting and it gets deleted, does its author get rewarded, or not?
What if it is a reply to a thread or a comment that got deleted?
I saw a claim that some services/"applications" charge fees on posts not made through them.
For example, if I give busy.org or ChainBB or dmania or dlive or dtube or dsound my active key (busy.org no longer accept posting key like they used to), but I post through steemit, are they still able to tax me?
Someone claimed that he was answered that it is impossible, but the code of it is long.
In this case, is there a difference between a thread and a comment?
What is "comment_benefactor_reward"?
The operators of the STEEM blockchain are called witnesses and are paid by the blockchain.
Who are the operators of the steemit blockchain and what pays for their costs?
What is a steemd node?
Does it mean that steemd.com became decentralized too?
If so, will it appear as comment_benefactor_reward in a blockchain explorer when I get rewarded on a post not posted through their service?
It starts with a 3, but steemit/STEEM is so wonderful you can not even read it correctly, and once edited, not through a blockchain explorer either.
I read that it is is a decentralized platform/website on top of a decentralized blockchain.
I do not remember the exact quote or its source.
This concept is even worse than I thought before.
The STEEM concept is nothing than a blockchain, that being unsustainable as a blockchain aside, is also destined to tax its users via obligatory interface services to it.
Dan threw whomever bought his STEEM or SBDs and did not sell on time under the bus.
Yes, I know he is not an official here anymore, and it does not reduce from the correctness of what I wrote.
He could have made steemit maintenance a part of STEEM maintenance.
He just preferred not to.
Steemit.com is run by one company, but the code is open source.

I read somones post where he was asking what exactly the witnesses are doing other than just raping the reward pool and I simply told him to wait for your next update on the witnesses to get schools. I hope he has read this coz this witnesses are really doing a great job. Kudos.
He actually wrote that, lol, thats funny...
Thats good post keeping an eye on witnesses. Thats called well maintained platform. Keep it up
Waiting for a @timcliff post with some feeling, i’ve seen them in the backlogs of your steemd, can we get some OC tim up in here soon, recommendations and ideas, things you’re excited about. We need this while steem is low, lets get the newcomers excited and revitalize the earlier adopters. Much love
A lot of my time these days is spent working on things behind the scenes. I will try to get out and post a bit more :)
I know. You’re one of the whales holding the witnesses accountable and keeping steemit all that much more transparent. Its my respect for u that makes me want to read your content and see tour creative side come out!
Wow, I am here as a witness, thank you for doing such a great job and making this regular updates for all of us @timcliff! I have never regretted voting for you as witness. Keep on doing what you are doing!
I will always commend this act of hardwork from you @timcliff. Your hardwork will never go unrewarded. God bless you.
@gtg will always be my favourite
I thought that the first twenty witnesses were the most important.
howcomeizit we seldom get reports from most of them?
You should ask them. Personally I try to post a witness update once a month, unless there are urgent things to discuss.
I'm just a fat minnow...I can't imagine leviathan speaking to little old me.
You are indeed doing a very nice job buddy ,Thanks to you for keeping us updated !
Like your Note part !
Remember when bernie says "what do witnesses do"... well just keeping this weekly summary is a boatload of work, and I thank you for doing it.
