I don't think he ruined it, I think he ruined himself. He thought it would be all sweet, come in and do what he wants, and he's been met with actual challenges now. I don't think he's invest in something just to let it fail. I don't know him, but it doesn't seem like he'd be where he's at right now with whatever he's done, if he had no sense about him. I'm willing to give this guy a shot, but the outlook so far is not great. I need to see some real action, some real care, some real willingness to take the new challenges he has head on and pursue a better Steem. Will he do this? Who knows. I can't give up just yet tho because the time he's been in control has been so miniscule compared to other regimes. We have no idea how he'll respond, in time, to the community and it's actions. I think a lot are being presumptuous, based off of prior behaviors of his... but the thing is, he's never dealt with this community and this community obviously isn't as simple as anything he's dealt with before. I want to see what the man is capable (or not capable) of. I say we accept that division can be a good thing and healthy... but also that it should (and hopefully will) cause people to have more introspection and grow to match the new challenges they are faced with. This guy doesn't sound like someone who wants to lose, so I think he'll try to win. The community is going to let him know, very clearly, what is successful with them and what is not. It's all about what he does with all of the feedback, that ultimately defines him here. People make poor decisions, he may have here already, but that doesn't fully take them out of the range of redemption. Changes of heart and mind take place daily and sometimes in those you least suspect. Ruining something only happens when it consistently fails to change from a state no one wants it in. As long as change is present... I don't see something as ruined. It may need to adapt over time and if it's not what the people want, it'll ultimately fail. Those who don't wish to fail tho, won't ignore the people... Not for long... lol
