Hello. There is still a seed.cubeconnex.com:2001 seed node listed on status.steemnodes.com under your name. I assume this is no longer a valid node? I plan on submitting a PR soon to remove it. Please let me know if it should be kept.

@bitcube has been MIA for a long time now, since mid-September 2016. His witness server went offline and his signing key was shut down automatically after 24 hours of missed blocks. No transaction from his account since. He never logged back into steem.chat or posted a message on the Steemit slack after September 13th, 2016. I think he may actually have died.

That's too bad. I left a message to all the users who's seed nodes I was deleting, mainly as a courtesy. seed.cubeconnex.com:2001 as well as all of the others I never heard back from have already been submitted to the steem GitHub repository to remove.
