Okey, no rum, some beers here talking.

• Trading votes for witness support ain't cool. We all kinda trade votes. I vote for things I like, and there's a high chance that the authors of such content would also like my content. Besides, there's the Czech community I naturally stick to. So we can be easily blamed for trading votes for votes. Nevertheless, voting content I don't enjoy just because the authors supported my witness account is not the path I'd take if I had a witness server. My two cents.

• Just like in the real (offline) life, there are environments and situations. Things perfectly that were perfectly all right when you were drafted to the army and went for a leave (I still think it was just a Halloween costume though!) may not be suitable for a few years older Bradley sipping his Scotch at a gentlemens' club in Deer Lake (is there such place?). And they will be totally inappropriate at a kids' day out on the bay. See my point? Snaps are a place for Hive OGs, people there are on Hive for like 7 years, and they are likely aware of your activities. Reminding them might feel like watching the same ad for the 50th time.

• The best way to establish yourself here is to build up your own community. I did so with the Czechs, and they still percieve me as the founding father, even though I am one of the yougest there (you fossil! - sorry, I couldn't help it). Go around the marvelous island of yours and invite folks. I've heard the Canucks are great chums. They might support you - it's always better when somebody else promotes you (and it is even better when you don't to pay them for that!)

Anyways, chill, man. I mock you, but I like you, Bradley ;)
