Obviously, what Hive account@jpiper20 did was wrong.

Obviously he got caught.

Obviously, when he was called out, he confessed and asked for forgiveness.

What I find remarkable though is the willingness of so many within our community to forgive him, encourage him, and support his honesty in this matter.

Though Hive account@jpiper20 deceived many of us and has broken our trust, yet, the community seems to be willing to give him another chance.

Though I have never followed him yet, or ever upvoted one of his posts that I aware of, I have just now clicked "follow" on Hive account@jpiper20.

If he is willing to be honest, repent, and stop his deceptive activities, then I am willing to forgive him and allow him to have another chance.

How about you?
