I don't know, but Mahbod Moghadam had or has a brain cancer, and I fear that's the real reason he has resined. Nice guy by the way. In general nice guy's. But about that WMF SB's (Shit Buckets) and that IQ's. I liked the idea of a crypto reward on EQ, I had that idea before on Guido den Broeder his Trollosage. I had published there the idea in 2016 and the people on EP where extreem friendly to me. Special Paul Bedson, but the rest too.
But there where many factor's.
First, Paul Bedson and I agreed the Dutch section had to be complete rewrite because with article13 on it's way we all understood in that time the Pirate Party biased junk what WP-NL is was not suitable. It is complete Mdd/Romaine rubbish, worthless bullshit or not even.
So, there had to be created a complete new Dutch section. And if I had been twenty years younger I had loved to do that, but in this periode of my life not anymore. And there where a few practical problems for me. The software of EP is not compatible with the Wikimedia software, and to complex. And I had a different vision on crypto money in mind, I am convinced you have to give the people something back, but I was thinking about a kind of Air Mile system, A Wiki Mile system, Because there IQ system made everything extreme complex in my opinion. My plan was to start with that "Wiki Mile" system, and if it was a succes to try if you could connect it to a other crypto money. But they are fine, extreem nice people, and Larry too. I spoke once short with him.
And, you should have to compete with WP-NL what is extreem powerful thanks to Google and the WMF money, a battle you always would lose. But in Asia they seems quote succesfull, but in Europe I didn't see much changes.
But much more important was I found out in that time my world with decoration, crazy dolls, photography, LGB trains, vacuum tube amplifiers and my garden attract me much more than Wiki's in general, the same conclusion I draw in the first class of the primary school about what you should concider as intellectual things.
And, I had written what I wanted to write and what was important to me. Articles about my fathers friends, long forgotten professors, about the huge crisis in Greece and some other nice things like a windmill and so on. Klein gut we say in Dutch. So there was not so much for me to write anymore, the last article was about vacuum tubes on Guido's trollosage. It was fine for me, it was ok, it was finished, I said to Guido, just use my articles. A said person like you can use some help, like you gave a tramp a nickel.
And if people there highest goal is to pay other people with shit buckets and are doing a really great attempted to end up for years and years in a European prison (mark the words of Alex Voss and the support of Frans Timmermans), how am I to say don't do that? It is what I am telling them form 2009 on, but if they don't want to listen.
But I don't concider it as my problem.
If they want to spend the coming 15, 20 years in our excellent states facilities be my guest. I my only hope for them is there girly's will take the trouble to let themself check in every private place several times and want to wait with a towel and clean sheets in there hands for 30 minutes fun in a small room. But for the rest it is OK there. I told it before, you have a TV, reasonable food, sport, social work, a small but absolute cozy room with a other guy, so great company, work for 2 euro a hour so you can buy a chocolate bar from time to time, no internet so you get rit of your wiki addiction, so why not? Tramps really like it there, it is warm there, you get food and drinks and coffee, people look after you. No, it isn't so bad there. Believe me, it is much better place here in Europe than in America.
I really have to make a video, because it drives great! With light in the wagons, really, it is great. And all build up out of old junk.
