After negotiations settled about her pay

@MagicSmoker, Your merits gonna explode 

Captain, I appreciate your apology and personal approach to the situation. However, I still feel --Serena--'s actions are wrong and unjustified and would like an apology from her.

I do know she is paid, she commented here back in February about how she was leaving as community manager because you were not paying her enough. Then came back when you reached a resolution.


Also, I would PM you via slack if my account was not permanently banned. That was the start of all of this.

@cpmcgrat, Stop and finish this here.
Don't comment on any issues on which you don't have any info like whether Serena is paid or not to manage the community. It takes more than technical knowledge & pay for her efforts and support to the community.
Check my post last page or so. Already apologized for any doubts/errors/mis-understandings.
My team and their respect will be top most and above everything. Believe and follow what kryptoid said above.

Its just wrong time wrong place, nothing more.
Pm me here/slack if still any issues.

My point is that should not be happening in the first place. I have apologized to the team for any misunderstanding that may have occurred. It does not matter whether or not I deserve it, it is he-said-she-said at this point and I cannot prove or disprove what occurred in PMs without access to my account.

It is concerning that you got a ban as well. How many people has —Serena— banned because she didn’t like the contents of PMs? That does not seem right at all. I have seen you around here for a long time contributing to this community and are close to the project. It is my belief that blockchain projects should be egalitarian on all fronts.

However, I would like an apology. —Serena— is paid to manage the community. How many paid employees of a companies you have interacted with have banned you from communicating then slandered you? I know if I received treatment like this from a company, whether retail, corporate, or otherwise, I would be furious and make sure it was known how that organization treats people. I don’t know why the expectation should be any different here. I have invested a lot of time, money and energy in this project.

With all due respect, I'm not going to back down from standing up for what I believe is right simply because I'm expected to.

try this:
in an elevated CMD (Run as adminitrator)

net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:pool.ntp.org
w32tm /resync

If you aren't already on Slack or discord, join and ask there. Mojo, Serena or the community will help you troubleshoot.

I was personally banned for things that happened in PMs and I totally deserved it, especially in hindsight. My advice to you would be to take it like a man and apologize instead of demanding an apology. You're only digging yourself a deeper grave as far as what's left of your dignity. Also, I didn't flood the ANN with my rebuttals and I would advise you to do the same if you intend to keep any respect from the community. You did something out of line and there was retribution. Deal with it.

Last note (just from a personal level) I'm sure you deserved it so, stop playing victim. Like I said, I was mad at first but later realized it was justified. The same realization will probably come to you.

I try to start test derod, but it have system time problem and not sync anything. Despite that my pc synced with time.windows.com.

I have previously as well with other issues I have encountered (forking, payments, etc) found her to be friendly, helpful and professional. I am making sure to honor my previous assessments of character in every post I make because I am in as much disbelief as anyone over how this current situation has been handled.

Looking backwards at my history, I have been supportive. To your credit, there are posts about the ASICs and Auditing that I feel needed more attention and explanation as to why such an uncoventional path was being taken. Like I’ve said previously, my tone can be standoffish, which I’m well aware of, but I discuss that here because I care deeply about this project. If you remember the audit thread, I was not asking to personally audit it, I was asking to have it audited by any third party. It was not my intention to gain any competitive advantage, only to strengthen the project by addressing issues I’m certain other people were, and are continuing to, think about.

I desperately want this project to be successful, and am an opinionated person by nature. I would not be spending so much of my day on this point if I did not care deeply.

For this point I feel the issuance of bans based on non-publically available data (PMs) with no proof offered to the community other than I was rude is defeating to the vision of Dero to provide the world with a private, secure, decentralized platform. By definition blockchain, and especially private blockchain, is supposed to be among the most democratic and free systems of information flow there are. I wish this was all different from the beginning and never happened, but I cannot let it go for that reason alone.

I know there are two sides to every story, but your side is looking worse and worse with every post you make. I've exchanged a few PMs with --Serena-- over the last few months and I have always found her to be honorable, truthful and professional; you, on the other hand, wrote this on April 22:


That's not exactly what I would call "being supportive of DERO" as you have claimed to always be. And let's not forget your demand to audit the source code, which could be construed as quite alarming if viewed from the prism of competitive advantage. My advice - worth the price paid - is that you take a few days or weeks or whatever to cool off and quit posting knee-jerk responses to every slight, real or imagined.

--Serena--, I do not know why you continue to be disdainful and disrespectful towards me. As a paid community manager I would expect you to be able to accept some constructive criticism, comport yourself with more professionalism and work with me; not hand out bans because you do not like or cannot handle what you are hearing. Especially over PM. In the public channels I was sure to explain my position and apologize for any affront or miscommunication of tone or otherwise that occurred. Despite what you and others may believe at this point, I do strongly believe in this project and do not want to harm it in any way.

I not once attacked you or Mojo as people, to the contrary, I’ve come to like both of you a great deal over the past months. I only offered my anecdotal opinion about how I believe the community could be improved based on the chain of feelings I experienced following the initial exchange. I did this in a PM because I have found you to be quite effective in the past, and have been vocal about that. However, at this point, out of principal I cannot and will not let this go if that is your final position.

You're of course welcome to continue as you please. However, my position on this is final, and I hope that you're able to move on in your own time.

I understand, and for months I have been active supporting this project both technically (through mining and technical support here and over slack) and my promoting Dero over other channels. If you look back through the post history you will find I’ve been around here since February supporting this project.

I believe in this project and have quite a large amount of the publically available supply of DERO, and I intend to keep it that way moving forward. However, I feel personally affronted by the team and will use whatever platforms I can to get my message out there until I feel —Serena— and the team has made it right.

Would be nice.

Can you go cry somewhere else? This forum is for Dero, it's technology, and what it is bringing to the world. Not people banned for being rude and then crying for attention. Thanks,  much appreciated.

To be honest, at this point for me to feel welcome, I would need my Slack account to be reinstated and a sincere public apology from —Serena— on the general channel where I was, and continue to be, slandered.

I’m willing to admit my tone may have been standoffish, I may have been a little harsh in my emotional state and I’m sorry for any pain that may have caused. That was not my intention in the slightest and I’d hope my history with this community would help attest to that.

The narrative in Slack being pushed is still being justified by telling the community that my PMs were rude enough to justify a ban without providing any evidence, despite people questioning yours and @Mojo's behavior @--Serena--.
