Revoking my witness vote for @jerrybanfield
I did cast my witness vote to @jerrybanfield quite a long ago and today I revoked it. He also revoked his vote from me right away so I lost 1.6 GVests. That took me down from the witness rank but I can live without it.
At the time I voted him, he was not in the top 20, and I thought his unique approach for promoting Steem could have brought in some positive impacts that cannot be done by anyone else. But I have seen his activities and campaign going opposite to where I think right, and eventually posted an offensive video on Steem blockchain. I wasn't aware of the post until @arcange pinged me with the link, and I lost quite a big chunk of witness votes as well as a result.
I want Steemit to be good and healthy service for everyone including my family and friends. I am building SteemPay dreaming that Steem Dollar will replace fiat in near future. I want to be proud of myself being the Steem witness. What @jerrybanfield has done exactly vandalizes all of these.
I will continue working on the projects I have been working on as usual.
Thanks for reading my note.
I want to support you in your SteemPay project and casted my witness votes to you. Do not worry more people vote you because of the value you provide. I do not know Jerry has posted offensive video on Steem blockchain, can you share it here?
@hiroyamagishi thank you very much for your support. Arigato. I wish all the best for the Japanese Steemit community.
About the video, it shouldnt be shared. If you are really curious, visit jerrybanfield's blog and scroll down a bit then you will find it.
Thanks. I already made a video to promote the SteemPay, I hope you will love it. This great idea needs to promote and support.

Don't worry, his biggest supporter removed his proxy thru jerry, it was 1GV. You would have lost that 1GV anyways, like many have, if you noticed today's perturbation in the ranks.
Oh well, knowing that it's not that hurting now. Thanks mate!
Kudos to you for making a difficult albeit a right choice for this platform. It will hurt you in the short term but I have no doubt your brave actions and words will benefit this community as well as your position within steemit in the long run. Keep it going sir. A lot of people cheering for you.
@menerva appreciate your kind words as always!
I think that is a good decision based on steps he took in the last weeks. Keep up the good work with steempay and we will see all together a better future.
Cant agree more. Thanks for your support!

Thanks @ganzi bro!
I believe that it was not an easy decision to make. You acted according to your conviction and did not hesitate to state your action and reasoning behind it.
You will be known as an independent, courageous witness to the Steemit community. As one of the users who assigned you as a proxy for the witness vote, I am proud of it.
Thank you for doing something that you believe to be correct.
Thanks for wording this nicely. I still think some witness with business or marketing backrgound can bring in significant impact into Steem, but Jerry is certainly not the one. Thanks for your kind support :)
Do you mind sharing what the link is about? Or the link?
I also want to be careful in making my witness votes as well.
That shouldnt be shared across the blockchain ;) you can find it in jerrybanfield's blog if you are curious enough (NSFW)
Ah! I found it. Thanks!
I am glad to have run away from him the exact moment he joined Steemit

You must have foreseen the future mate!
Yep
Like you, Jerry used to have my support for all the promoting he had done for steem. His actions of late would make it embarrassing if he were still one of the top 20 witnesses. Kudos to you for making the right choice even though it has cost you personally.
Thanks for your kind words @novacadian I hope we will have a proper and genuine marketing person soon again.
