# We've All Seen the Circular Conversation Over the Last 9 Months It goes something like this: Community asks @haejin to stop the 100% self upvoting with his accounts ( @ranchorelaxo & @haejin ). He responds by saying the self upvoting is because of the downvoting. ![Screen Shot 2018-07-02 at 11.42.21 AM.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPE7UMjFbnXTiBSRHJVsY8AziyjJUTSgZGTDvabFgEHn1/Screen%20Shot%202018-07-02%20at%2011.42.21%20AM.png) ***You can see the whole conversation [HERE](https://steemit.com/charity/@lyndsaybowes/i-will-be-donating-my-sbd-from-post-payouts-indefinitely)*** # I Thought of a Solution: Olive Branches I will pay for the downvotes he receives if he starts 'redeploying'. Basically he starts to do what he wants to do, but can't because he is being held back by because of the downvotes (his olive branch), and I'll raise funds/pay from my own pocket to nullify the downvotes (my olive branch). # I Wanted To Believe... I really want to give @haejin the benefit of the doubt. It's looking not good though. It was 4 days yesterday since I shared my idea with him, and no answer. I went back yesterday and said: "4 days no answer, I guess I will take that as a no." And still there is no response. I don't see any other way to test out the truth of his words, that 100% self upvoting with his accounts is only due to downvotes. You think he would be jumping at the chance to see me have to try and pull his lost STEEM and SBD together from the downvoting, while he finally gets to "redeploy" to all of the people he's been wanting to help but can't because of flags. ## His Stake, His Choice Absolutely he has every right to 100% upvote himself with his accounts. And absolutely the community has every right to disagree with the *potential rewards*. # So the Stalemate Will Continue Indefinitely I'll leave off with a quote... >"George Bidault once said that a good diplomatic agreement was one with which all parties were equally dissatisfied."
