I've said this in the TG community. And I'll make this clear here now.
Listen. I'll be damn clear about this guys.
From here on out if you are including my name in any votes or whatever, please ask me, because I will say no 90% of the time.
There are people that hate me and can't stand the sight of my name and there are people that dearly love me in this community. So when you pitch my name against someone like Darkstar and low and behold I get more votes then people will think I am pulling in favors. Which is absolutely bullshit and wrong.
I do not want such drama with me because we Indians are like crabs, if one succeeds, other one pulls back. Please keep me out of such shit in future.
This was my original message.
I had no idea my name was being thrown around as a potential manager or escrow. It was only when someone informed me, I came to know about it.
I did vote in it and I voted for myself. At the time I had 0 votes.
However the voting picked up speed and at a time my votes equalled that of Darkstar or it might have even surpassed it.
This might have stung some people, how could I get enough votes to match or beat Darkstar at anything.
Before I clear that, I must bring your attention to this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5191613.msg53004997#msg53004997Think I have voiced my opinion on this before. Thanks for the consideration. I don't think anyone could be a better option than Darkstar_ here because unlike me, he is really trusted by many people on this forum and he has proved his mettle.
Though this is no endorsement, just my opinion which is unbiased despite him helping me in my time of need.
I was already supporting Darkstar for the job, and if I am not wrong, by the time I posted this message, Darkstar already had the job of the escrow. Correct me if I am wrong.
Darkstar and I are in cordial terms with each other, he has lent me money in the past and part of that loan I am still paying back. There was and is absolutely no doubt in my mind about if Darkstar is the right guy for the job.
Then comes this troll Rotten Egg or whatever his name is. He starts throwing allegations that Darkstar is favored because someone wants to get on the DT by being on DS' trust list. Darkstar does not hand out trust like that and I am no one to tell you how Darkstar hands out his trust, he'll be the judge of that but he does not get manipulated like a pleb and a mere few hundred dollars worth of escrow job would definitely not get you in his trust list.
Regardless, today I saw theymos posted here because someone asked for voter's names. My question is why? Is it because I was involved and I got so many votes? Or was it because Darkstar was given the job despite not being Indian?
Whatever the moot point is, it does not matter and it is a total time waster. Either way, I never wanted the job and whether Darkstar is chosen or not is the sole discretion of whoever the money belongs to. Why is the unnecessary drama being created here with my name?
Here on out, if anyone of you is putting my name in any voters list without asking me, you would be instantly blocked and distrusted. If I had to do politics here I would have started years ago.
Please keep me out of such shit.
