this is a moot point since you speak for both karma and karmashares and since any action taken benefits both.



your signature, past actions and comments.

maybe you don't want to be the leader any more, and that of course is your choice but I am sure you wouldn't have done all that you did if you didn't want to take charge.
 
you put yourself into that role and set up a for profit company.. nobody made you do it.
you made commitments and built up the expectations of your investors and now they are being critical and dumping because their expectations haven't been met.

am I saying this is all your fault?.. of course not, the community should take more responsibility for building projects and starting more companies of their own and not just rely on one small company to do everything.

you have done more that your fair share of the lifting by far and your investors aren't expecting you to do everything on your own, that is why they gave you all that Karma so that you could use some of it to grow your company as the flagship of the community.

Chargin made a very good point that if you build up expectations then you have to deliver on them otherwise you will get punished by the market.

I am making the very clear point that if you set up a "for profit" company then you need to run it like a for profit company and not expect everyone to help you and continue to donate their time like it is a charity.

I have always lived by the idea that it is better to under promise and over deliver, than to over promise and under deliver.
This recent round of dumping is exactly why I do not make grand statements and price predictions and it is exactly why some people are reluctant to get more involved both with Karmashares and with Karma.
