Apologies to the operators of the future DEC discord

avatar
(Edited)

this appology goes out to @jitbag and @blueleader03 and all the operators of their discord channel THEFUTUREDECSCORD that does an amazing job raffeling all sort of cool cards and even VOUCHERs.

What Happened?



So a week ago I saw a post of @blueleader03 I will link it here and you can read all the comments that have been made too.

A free Llama Kron and a simple link to a discord channel made my alarmbells sound. And then I found this post of @revise.spt where he also questions the legitimacy of the post. And asking for more info.

We both kinda ignored the green flag since one of the #oneup curators @master.splinter had curated the post with ONEUP tokens.
We discussed the post in the community discord and it was confirmed that it is legit.

Then we had a comment by @riandeuk this is a screenshot from the conversation under revise's post.

Further on it got confirmed that the card had been sent by the guild leader @jitbag to the respective winner.

The aftermath

I had a conversation with everyone in the channel including @jitbag who did not like me trying to get together a pool for CL purchases (that I apologize for again) You can read the conversation by joining the Discord it is all there.

After the dust had settled I decided to give the raffles a shot.

Trying the game

I went to explore the server and what they have to offer. I participated in the first raffle I liked and because I like Alpha cards I went for an alpha card the crustacean king on level 3.

To participate you check how many tickets are available and buy the amount you want to have. I settled for 3 tickets and paid 816 DEC to the account on the screenshot.

After all the raffle tickets had been sold and payments confirmed the raffle took place and I got lucky and won my first card.

Minutes after the raffle I received the card in my account.

This was the point where I thought I have to do more than just apologizing for being a "fish hunter" and I had a private talk with Jitbag.

So here is my official apology I owe to the guild of Future DEC bagholders and all their members working on this great server. I am sorry for questioning the legitimacy of your project. I am sorry for shilling in your discord server 5 minutes after my arrival. I am sorry for sometimes being an asshole.

I sincerely hope that we can set aside our bad start and start over fresh.

And now everyone go and get yourself some tickets everyone! I will occasionally play the alpha raffles. And I might enter the Gold Foil Summoner raffles as well.

See you on the discord! Or on stream!

Grats on winning that card, being vigilant isn't too bad in crypto really. Not blaming you.. wouldn't worry about it. Good to see you onboard and enjoying the raffles :-)

Thanks, and yes sometimes I am over cautious. But my very first contact with crypto years ago made me be super vigilant. It is the reason why I am so late in the game. Always extra cautious with peer to peer stuff.
I really enjoy the raffles and I am going to do a lot more of them.

Better safe than sorry, enough scams around to get hurt badly! We're not late we're all still early ;-)

Thanks Yeckingo,
I try to be true to myself, if I make a dumb move I try not to repeat it.

Hahaha, Sol, you're one of a kind, one of the good guys, really! Sometimes you write like you speak and like you think without considering how you sound, it just comes out with no filter - it is being you and we and your guild love you for it 😁.

Joining the server now to see if I can warm up to the idea of these raffles as well.

Happy to have you there and on our server. It is weird and maybe geeky to say, but you bunch of crazy summoners are so close to my heart as if we would be friends from long ago. And I haven't even seen one of you in real life!

I'm really impressed by the humility and ability to question preheld beliefs that lead to this apology. This is one of many reasons I really respect you Solymi. I had been on that server for a long time, and I can confirm that Jit and crew run a really awesome operation. Thank you for being awesome.

Thanks for this awesome comment Sketchy, I always try to be as straight up as I can and sometimes I end up doing harm with it. This post is just a humble try to make things better. Thanks for being so awesome to encourage me.
