RE: Splinterlands DHF Proposal
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
You appear to be discriminating against me cos I haven't blogged on Hive, but that isn't why I am here.
Discriminating? You dont need to blog. I havent seen you involved with anything. Havent seen you contributing to Hive. I dont know you. I dont know what youre capable of. You havent shown me anything you did or can do, yet you make big claims. How is that discrimination?
Furthermore it is frankly reckless and not a little weird to judge business plans by somebody's track record as a blogger.
Where is your Hive track record? What have you done so far? Again... you cannot expect anyone to take you seriously with claims like you make without having anything to showcase.
How is that weird or reckless?
I suspect if we count up all the SPL games I have played continuously for over three years, I have been on Hive more than you! Maybe we gamers should get some credit for that...
Ive played SPL since launch. Owned cards before there even was a game. So, no... you havent been here longer than me as if that matters at all.
SHOW THAT YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU CLAIM TO BE CAPABLE OF. Even a part of it. Go network. Deliver something to SPL, lets see if you can do something there. Deliver something to Hive.
You rode in on a bicycle and claim you can get a bunch of Ferraris here.
You need to beat the skepticism. Not call people that are reasonably skeptical unwelcoming and not open.
In which ways do you think I should contribute to Hive?
Indeed, which ways to contribute on Hive are there?
To me, it is primarily just the platform Splinterlands runs on. As mentioned above, it is only through the kindness and patience of others that I have come to understand Hive is more than that.
As to discrimination, you keep refusing to listen to me cos I lack hive profile. That IS discrimination.
The way to know if you can take someone seriously is you listen to what they have to say and decide if it stacks up.
You have not done that, you have made up stuff, hurled accusations, and basically done everything but listen!
Frankly, listening to me would have taken less time than this frustrating chat has!!
I have no literally idea what you are on about when you say contribute before you will listen. If you won't listen then I can't contribute.
It is by getting to know each other that we can build trust, not by some random blockchain data.
Telling me to go network is hilarious advice, cos I am trying to network with you and other hivers and you keep rebufffing me.
Consider this, if I am even halfway onto something, that is significant for both hive and splinterlands, and if, as I believe it can, this plan works out, it could be transformative for both.
Sure, kind of big claims perhaps, but what if it is all true and possible? You owe it to yourself, hive and splinterlands to at least find out, right?
Maybe it is you that needs to beat your own scpeticism....
Come on, man, loosen up and let me talk with you. I promise not to bite! Or suck!!
In so many words, that's all he's trying to tell you. Get out there, get to know people. Some will listen. Some won't. Some will be rude, some will be kind, and all things in between. That's life. If you have big plans, you have all the freedom in the world here to act on them. Some might approve, others might not. That's life. Your success is your responsibility. It's not up to anyone else but you.
Yes, you are very right!
I am doing my best to meet people, which is mostly happening on discord, where many hive communities hang out.
Community is very important to me and I don't want to act in isolation as some might do, I want to build a group that shares the vision and purpose of the new dao.
LB is both an OG Splinterlander and a Hive Witness, so I thought he would at least want to hear my input, as my plan can help support both the chain and the game, but apparently not.
As you said, some might approve. others might not, which is of course perfectly fine and to be expected. To be ignored and belittled based on an absence of facts is what sticks in my throat a bit though, but it won't remotely deter me. 😀
The most successful street performer right now is surrounded by a crowd of people enjoying the music. At the exact same time, that street performer is also the most annoying human on that corner, getting a lot of dirty looks. At the exact same time, that successful street performer is also the most ignored human in the vicinity. For every 1 that stops to listen, 200 keep on walking and pay no attention. That's what success looks like.
I like that, good one!
Ugh man.. Post it on Hive in an open forum. Make it concrete, ping me, ill read it.
It's always been my plan to do that, when the time comes...
However, as someone with not much profile, as you so kindly pointed out repeatedly, I was, indeed am, far more concerned about being voted out of existence by people I don't even know.
Maybe you don't see some of the aggressive upvoting and downvoting that goes on on hive but, as a noob who has only been here a relatively short while, it scares the crap out of me.
That is why I have been trying to introduce myseñf and the plan to people such as yourself.
I can do a lot but I can't do everything and building a great team, largely based on splinterlands and hive, is mission critical, as well as offering employment to people in our community.
Come on man. Someone will downvote your idea post. Nonsense.
Aggressive downvoting? What aggresive downvoting? The few scammers? Idiots working against Hive? No one proposing anything of value has ever been downvoted here for that reason.
I see it all the time and get told about other people's experiences too, and it really happens. You are possibly too close to the wood to see the trees....
My original comment here triggered many more words for me to read. I hope I'm not interrupting.
May I offer you some advice?
yes please
You'll never find the perfect world.
I realize that sounds like an evil fortune cookie, so I'll take your situation I'm reading here and put it somewhere else.
Let's say you have a lot to offer and you think Chicago is the place it all needs to happen.
Do you say to yourself, "I have so much going for me and such great things to offer this world. But since people get shot here in Chicago, I'll do nothing instead."
Sure, some people do get shot in Chicago. Majority are not walking around with wounds though. Why? And why are there so many others able to achieve great things in Chicago? Do they have superpowers? No. They're regular people just like you, getting shit done.
Now look around this platform. If you feel this is the place to get shit done, you're wise to be aware of issues, but don't forget to look at the majority not experiencing those issues and actually getting a lot of shit done.
Don't let your fears hold you back.
There. I turned it into a normal fortune cookie.
Have a good one.
Cheers!
I've been on the chain 8 years in just a couple of days. Over the years I've seen some aggressive downvoting, usually overblown egos having a pissing match. Often with collateral damage.
I've not seen a lot of that going on in the last couple of years so, I'd be curious to see what you claim and learn the story behind the downvotes. There is always a story, even if you disagree with it.
If you're not into blogging anymore, there is the option of using dBuzz and 'tweeting' to build a profile. They will show up in the All Posts section of your profile. If you're more into sharing pictures, there's LikeTu.
Hive is more than blogging.
