With 200,000 SP, your account smells very preminer-fishy to me. I will be looking very close at your account history.

Why are all those minnow boosting accounts sending you such large amounts of steem and SBD?

You aren't gonna just waltz in and be a fancy whale in Calibrae without a really thorough investigation.

I recognised your name but don't recall it being a positive recollection. I checked your wallet and your transaction history stinks to high heaven.

So everyone else can see it:

I joined Steemit in May'16.  I wrote articles that did very well and bought Steem and have periodically bought more Steem.  At least half my Steem was effectively bought, maybe more.  

I delegate to the Minnowbooster project because several people I follow (like @lukestokes) mentioned it and I took a look.  [Here are the details on Minnowbooster](https://steemit.com/minnowbooster/@minnowbooster/introducing-minnowbooster-beta).

Nothing fishy here.

Additionally, I make it a point to use my influence to speak [Truth to Power](https://steemit.com/filecoin/@eeks/filecoin-problems-and-fixes-my-letter-to-protocol-labs). (and a month ago [on Tezos](https://steemit.com/ico/@eeks/beta-ing-the-tezos-experience-red-flags-for-the-ico-and-open-questions))

Ok, that sounds reasonable. I got into a financial position to be able to do this project, albeit a much smaller reward, by the same mechanism, by being favourited by some premined whales for a while. 

In any case, if you misbehave on Calibrae, high reputation accounts, like mine will be (I have decided that I will copy @l0k1's reputation, which contains  the bulk of my historical earning of reputation, that even had a huge chunk taken out early on by berniesanders, and it is higher than yours), so I will be amongst those who will have the reputation chops to put you in your place if you are misrepresenting yourself. I will be looking closely at the reputation effect and if it's biased towards stake that will be changed for sure. Reputation is a type of non transferrable, nonmonetary capital, and it should have a powerful influence.

I just skimmed that post you made, and I am happy if this is the type of thing that is normal for you, no, I am very happy. This is the the kind of ethical creatures we want as whales in Calibrae. This will ensure that pigs who show up with scammed cryptos and buy in don't get an unfair advantage.
