for @themarkymark

I like that you have made the decision to retire your bid bot account and said as much on the relevant post. That is worthy of respect.

However not everything we do is worthy of respect.

Here is the link to your comment.

Your opening gambit is to claim that I am ''full of shit''

Given the context, I take that to me mean that you disbelieve that I sent you two polite inquiries. Below are the links. The first was to Hive account@steemcleaner which I believe is one of your accounts? (I mistakenly believed that both comments were directly to your Hive account@themarkymark account, I apologize for the error) :

The second polite comment was directly to you and includes an apology for being off topic:

You also provide screenshots and allegations.
Here is a link to the last full conversation for context. Conversation between myself and Hive account@enforcer48 resulting from a comment I made to Hive account@preparedwombat . You will find my initial response to Hive account@enforcer48 at the bottom of the page. Not very Troll like is it especially for an asshole troll like me!

The conversation with Hive account@savetheturtles is a real challenge for me. His comments have become inaccessible to me. So I can only provide the links to my part of the conversation.

Your claim is that, it was those two comments/conversations were what initiated your attack against me. However if we look at when those conversations occurred and when you started your campaign, your story just falls apart. You did take a short break, I will grant you that.

This is when you re-started your campaign with 3 accounts Hive account@aicurator Hive account@roomservice and Hive account@themarkymark 19 days ago at the writing of this post. Way before the two conversations you claim were the problem.
If you claim that the other two accounts are not yours, I don't have a problem with that. But what you find offensive about this comment is beyond my comprehension.

Hive account@savetheturtles made that claim about you having 1500 + sock puppet accounts not me. And bernie openly told us, he has thousands of accounts. That is a problem for the platform.

Have I been over the top ? YES
Would I do it differently ? Yes
Do I have regrets ? Most certainly.
Will I conduct myself differently from now on ? Most certainly.

On a practical level what does that mean? It means that I will be more respectful while reserving the right to speak up about things that I believe are detrimental to the success of Steem.

If New Steem is going to work, things need to change. So lets get on with it.
