🙌The following could be thought of as a fundraiser post. In a way, I guess it is... but I am really just trying to share the love, and help someone out! Keep reading, to see what I mean!🙌

Hello, my friends! Like me, I am betting that many of you use Discord to interact with various groups, and communities. In the same breath... I am sure all of you saw the spam links that were being dropped in various servers; you know the one... free Discord Nitro. Since I am in 100 servers, I see all of the pop-ups, and this situation got me to researching... Why was someone dropping this link, in every channel, in all of those various servers? After finding out who was doing this, I realized I knew this person... so I sent them a DM. I believe in giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. So I wanted to try and see what was going on...

You want music, NFT, family VLOGS, wicked awesome photos, or information about Appics... then you should check out

Hive account@krazypoet. (Or Jason Arnold, if you prefer). I remembered him, having interacted back in the day on STEEMIT, then chatting about Appics. Always was a cool guy I thought... from his YouTube about description:

"What does this have to do with your post, Wes?"... you may ask? Well... he was hacked... Those links were not from him, and after I sent him a DM, I learned what had really happened. We chatted, on and off, and he told me he had been away from Discord for some time. Imagine his surprise to find someone had hacked several of his accounts...

I was not doing this. I just changed my password now and have setup 2 step.
I have been recently hacked on pretty much everything and had to change my passwords on everything I use. And I guess discord is now one of them. I apologize for the issue. But it had nothing to do with me.

I also had my metamask hacked and lost over 12k in crypto assets. So imagine how I feel with my life being ruined now because of this shit.

Profanities, or not... can you blame him? After we finished chatting, I went through the various servers I am in, and let other's know what was going on. That he was indeed hacked, and the links were not sent by him... but from the person that hacked his account. He has managed to gain control of those accounts, and is working on a new set-up (Pc) to be active again. So he hasn't lost his mojo. So... I am not going to rattle on, because this post is not about me. It's about another dear friend, who has brought a lot of valuable and positive content to our blockchain. I was not going to finish this post originally, as Hive account@thealliance has already provided a awesomesauce post sharing the craptastic events... You can check it out here.... But after chatting with Hive account@enginewitty, I agreed with his vibe; the more that share, the more help to offer!
