RE: Ahead of @ned's live stream today.
I like a few of the guys, Steve, Slobbers, and Enforcer here, but I seriously distrust some of the backers of that project. About 9 months ago I caught one admitting that it flags on request, suggesting that it does not work independently, but actually is an errand boy, or the "face" for a larger whale or group of whales. (not a position I would want to be in because I would also have to deal with the fallout)
If the abuse was bad enough and the abusive account to big to handle; why were project backers flagging each other instead of going after serious abuse? Could it be that it doesn't really matter? Why aren't they doing it now that they stopped flagging each other? It certainly was entertaining to watch but provided nothing of value other than a distraction from what was happening elsewhere.
Like I said, I have more questions than answers at this time. I'm looking for a reason to trust but not finding one.
I understand man. I understand. I don't ever get that deep into it. I just like to screw around here and there. :)
Delegation is like passive support you'd give to charities. Not all delegators feel compiled to be active in the projects they sponsor.
It's no different than people tossing change to Salvation Army instead of participating in their activities.
Yes I agree that is often the case, but in this case, the delegator's own comments and past actions would suggest that getting involved is exactly what he would do.
