LOL that's absurd. The witnesses are mostly a bunch of low-paid volunteer community members (though a few are successful business people or investors) and Justin is supposedly a billionaire with a vast empire who thought he could make a deal with Ned and then command Steem to his will and all would obey. The witnesses are the courageous ones to try to stand up to this guy and his underhanded scheming.
If there is any bullying going on here, you must have been looking at it through a mirror.
SPS pay may be more, for specific non-witnessing tasks, split up between multiple people. Also, almost half of total SPS funding is for @sbdpotato, which is to be given back, so not really "pay".
But that's largely irrelevant anyway as most witnesses aren't receiving anything from SPS.
Top witness at $0.20 STEEM makes about $19000 per year gross (before expenses, taxes, etc.) and backup witneses (including some involved with and contributing their time to this whole 'takeover' issue) make 1/4 of that or less, in some cases much less.
The ones acting petty in comment sections are not the ones sitting through meetings trying to sort these things out.
I hope this man is smart enough to sift through the nonsense. Not all voices here represent all minds. Some of these voices just want to speak for attention. Others want to speak the truth. The majority wants this situation resolved, like now.

Low-paid is a relative statement, care to back that up with actual USD numbers? The SPS is currently funding over $250,000 USD per year.

There have been plenty of moments of unnecessary bs on both sides and overtures on both sides.
Maybe at some point they will line up at the same time.
I am fine with the current stand off, good for a cool down period.
How’s that commie dick taste? A little putrid?
Sorry to interrupt, but did I just heard "dick"? Can you give more information's please? It get's so exciting again!
Too man aggressive people.
I agree. It would be a lie to say only one party made mistakes.
The solution is always easy when you're not the one making the decisions.
Isn't patience fun?
To be fair, I've lost my patience several times.
To be fair, you’re a dumb cunt.
I'm trying to keep my chin up. Sometimes failing at being the better person. Still haven't hit the bottle yet though.
I also agree about the stand off allowing for a cool down, Justin could remove some of his witnesses to show some action. Only time will tell.
