@edicted that's a great response to this post which definitely does strike a chord with the small accounts that attempt to be engaging and informed.

I definitely consider myself to be in this category and while at times Im frustrated and full of piss and vinegar I do not fail to realise that there are influential accounts and witnesses that are not arrogant tossers. Seeing replies like yours and @steemitcommunity are reassuring and greatly appreciated.

That being said it is kind of lame seeing the bandwagon of I promise not to posts, as there is nothing binding about that so it's frankly just absurd. I know I'd never risk my investment because of a, trending pact on the blockchain. And yes, I get that everyone with any brain realises that this scenario would never play out as it would clearly destroy the blockchain if disagreeing was grounds for forking people over. What's remarkable is the lack of faith in the consensus of what the core principles of blockchain are that has been exposed by this drama.

Thx for expressing the views of the little ones @nathen007 and I think we can all agree the growing pains are here to stay...
