Using my voting power to fund development for this blockchain is the exact OPPOSITE of "greed" and eventually you're going to regret your decision to prevent it.
That's what the witnesses are for. Nobody has elected you Project Manager for the steem blockchain. Instead of finding new ways of directing funds your way, perhaps you should consider educating your followers on which witnesses to vote for and why. Maybe that way we can start getting some apps made by them.
I know you don't really pay attention, but I've actually been doing far less flagging lately than ever before.
Your recent downvotes to @heimindanger is what pushed me over the edge so don't act like you haven't been flagging people willy-nilly ...
Development is not and should not be limited to witnesses. The same way it should not be limited to Steemit Inc.
@heimindanger is a pompous douche when presented with information about dtube voting favoritism, he chases someone off the platform by calling them a cunt, bitch, spy, greedy, and harassing her until she left. He called me a nazi and posted pictures of Hitler because I blacklisted Trevon James who has lost people millions and was abusing bots.
He continuously harasses me sending me creepy messages like he will find me in Fortnite and kill me when I streamed Fortnite. @heimindanger pisses off almost everyone who interacts with him if he is your poster boy for this fight... oh boy we are fucked.
I agree, but also don't want Bernie, who can't even get his price-feed working on his witness to be in charge of some "development project." Not only does he want to redirect MORE steem his way, he wants to punish those that disagree with it. Just look at this ruckus he's causing for my dissent. He is not an example anyone should follow or promote.
@heimindanger has done much more for steem than narcissistic bernie
@berniesanders has arguably done more for Steem than you have. And the fact that you suggest that witness earnings are the main provider of funding for development makes me think you are fucking delusional.
You have several top 20 witnesses that don't do a fucking thing for development in any sense of the word, and I believe you removed your vote from me, one of the active developers.
Your words don't coorelate with your actions.
Starting a publicly visible account with transparency hardly qualifies as "redirecting MORE steem", quite the opposite in fact. Your ignorance as to what I've done here is starting to show, please, keep it up.
Regarding my price feed, it doesn't matter. My witness produces 1 block/hour. I've run a witness FAR longer than you've even been around. Good try though.
Let me remind you, you are the one who started with the flagging. I'm just following your lead. Now who is acting like a child? I've also suggested multiple times that we chat, you know how to get ahold of me.
I'm not going to stop doing what I am doing, however you want to use your stake is up to you, enjoy wasting it.
Also, you're the one who believes the earth is flat, not me.
Flat earth? I've noticed that younger people tend to be prone to these sorts of ideas. But because I've studied mathematics and physics, flat earth logic is a mental contortion that won't let my software work properly.
@stan has an excellent video on rocket science that pretty much proves to anyone willing not to stick their head in the flat earth, that the earth is not much different from Mars, Jupiter, the Moon, etc... We can see that they're round, why should the earth be any different given the universal laws apply the same everywhere?

Bid bots need zero promotion, there is more demand than supply. The blacklist costs me money as I turn down the best repeat customers. But by all means, continue to slander me.

Mother's hide your daughters, Hymendanger's coming.
Hmm...it IS a bit creepy
You are a creepy troll. But also an ass.
No it isn't. The role of witnesses is to sign blocks and keep the blockchain secure, control witness variables (such as price feed and now the budget for subsidized accounts), and vote on hard forks. Anything else that witnesses do, especially if expensive, undermines security by reducing the cost of getting voted out (if you spend much or all of your witness rewards to get votes and/or doing things that witnesses are "supposed" to do then there is no economic reason at all to care about getting voted out).
Development is a community responsibility. Steemit has largely taken that on by virtue of having launched the chain in a manner that gave them a dominant portion of the stake, the most funding, and the largest incentive to develop. Still it is absolutely positive if others contribute to development, not just (or even especially) witnesses.
I do think that people who want to fund development using rewards should show evidence of the value add and get widespread support, not just rely on self-voting. (And conversely, rewards being paid out without evidence of value add are fair game for downvoting, self-votes or otherwise.)
Ehhh, with all due respect,
There are only individuals (private) that have stake. There is no steemit inc. with a stake. Because if that was the case, steem would be a security.

With the new HF20 you can edit your posts as many times as you want.

PS: Good work, keeping that SBD Debt Ratio in check!!!
This is incorrect. The steemit, steem, steemit1, steemit2, accounts (and probably others I'm not thinking of at the moment) are owned by Steemit Inc. Some of the ninja-mined stake also went into individual founder accounts, but not most it. Whether it is a security or not is a question for lawyers and/or courts, I guess.
And that is the plan.
Another Hard Fork? The Bernie Sanders Social Network?
If you are supporting valuable development that is excellent. Please let us know what you are doing so we can vote for it.
I also got downvoted by berniesanders and he upvoted his insults to top comments on my posts. I can see that you downvoted him, thanks.
Anyone who's interacted with @heimindanger knows he works hard for downvotes. I have no trouble believing he deserved it.
Sounds fair to me!
Awe, cute.
This shows EXACTLY how naive you are. Our witnesses have not done anything significant for this blockchain in the past 2 years. Yeah, let's keep relying on them...
@heimindanger deserved the flags he received, it's cute you're sticking up for him though.
Everyone can now see the real @fulltimegeek. Nobody is going to care about you flagging me. Enjoy being another nobody...
Whatever
