Hey guys,
I want to give my thoughts on how yesterday's meeting went. I know everybody hasn't heard it and it's a little long but you really do need to hear it. Here is the link: https://dsound.audio/#!/@sevinwilson/20180317t154518936z-steemsilvergold-march-16th-stax-town-hall-meeting. Thanks 
Ok so we had this meeting to figure out what was goin on with our community sweetheart Stax. This once robust beauty that the whole community has supported and thought of as our own. I gotta say going into this meeting I knew what the heavy questions were gonna be and to be honest I thought I knew the answers untill 25:30 when I asked Pheli directly. "What is this a community bot or his, did the community have a decision in this or was it his alone"... When I got my answer of No, Its Phelis bot and No the community didn't have a decision in it I was really blown away. As a business man myself I know that that decision was career suicide. This community funded that bot, Ray and damus funded that bot and he thinks it's his.....No, that is not right and he knows it. I even said later that this is a bad decision and if this were me I'd give up the bot but Phelis mind was made up.
So then we chat on and all I'm hearing is what he can do to pay back everybody that was "over committed" and didn't understand that this was Phelis and not the communities. I tell you what, I run a business and when you start handing out refunds it's because you know you messed up. I really think in his mind he believed he was gonna just hand out some reparations and call it a day....
I'm just hurt by all this guys. I really am. I'm hurt that we were all fooled and that one of the leaders of this community could do it to us. This type of stuff doesn't get tolerated by Metals Mafia and one of the major reasons I started this thing of ours was to protect the silver communities that we are apart of from the ones set to hurt them. We may be a bunch of lunatic silver pourers but we got morals. Family Honor Respect Loyalty and Community are things we don't go against for nothing and when somebody messes with these things we speak up where others won't. We act when others wont and we all back each other 100%
Metals Mafia stance:
- We will no longer support Stax
- We will no longer support
- We would like to push for reevaluating Pheli's roll as an admin in this community.
#3 is most important to me as we need people that care about this community and the greater good leading it. Ones that will put the community in front of personal gain.
I hope everyone isn't freaking out too much. SSG is strong. Our members are community driven and we will overcome this speed bump guys. Keep posting and do what we do. Stack shiny metals and act like pirates when nobody is looking....except for
