"Low-Quality Engagement & Questionable Behavior"

Stop lying and falsely accusing me.

First of all, I apologize to Serpin for the misunderstanding. (The review should be edited.) This is not about backing down or groveling. I have to make some observations. This will be a long message. First, from the moment I noticed Ethos, I felt excited. I wanted to use, try, and test it. And for that, I pressed all the buttons, as I do in all projects. While I had no malicious intent, I might have pressed the wrong button. The issue is related to EthosAgent. From the moment I noticed it, I wanted to use it; I liked it. My intention was not to abuse it, and I still don’t understand what “abuse” means in this context. Later, I realized that with the “validate” or “save” command—I’m not sure which—side commands like “neutral” or “positive” could also be used. But I think the issue was that while trying to validate or save a post under X, my name appeared as a response to that post. As a result, it looked like I was giving myself a positive score, but I’m still not sure. Anyway, EthosAgent wrote on Ethos that I was abusing the system, but I didn’t understand what they meant. I couldn’t find clear enough content to explain it. Then one day, Serpin commented on X. They had banned me; I couldn’t use EthosAgent. The reason? Even if I had abused it (which I still don’t accept in any way, as that wasn’t my intention), I later had to change my X name for another project. Actually, I had to revert to my old name. I had entered Ethos with the new name, but then I went back to my old name. Then I noticed I could use EthosAgent again. I started using it. Now, it turns out we have a limit of 5 actions per hour, and EthosAgent was warning me about this—thank you to them. Later, I realized that even though it was the same X account, my old and new names (the one I registered with Ethos and the one I reverted to) appeared separately in the validator panel. I think this is a bug. I was planning to write to Serpin about this when they commented on an X post. They expressed a negative opinion and wrote that they had banned me. On top of that, someone unfairly labeled me, saying, “CZ is following me, it’s a scam account or a stolen/purchased one.” That was slander. Serpin also seemed to take a stance in that direction or acted accordingly. I was wronged. So, I wrote a review about Serpin on Ethos. I should have put a question mark there because maybe Serpin is a very good person, but their behavior—banning me without listening or understanding… I titled it “dictator and centralized structure.” Yes, I was angry; I was wronged and slandered, and I was fuming. Anyway, they probably banned me from X after that. I went to Discord and said I wanted to talk to them and their partner. Their partner said they had one second, or they’d ban me, and refused to talk. Then someone else came—apparently their employee—and I refused to talk to them because the issue was between me, Serpin, and their partner, meaning I needed to speak with someone higher up in the project. Anyway, they banned me unfairly. Then this person named Doğacan, along with one or several friends, organized people against me unfairly because of the negative comment I made. These people are mostly outcasts and malicious individuals in the Turkish community, dirty people. I don’t know Doğacan, and I don’t know if he’s like that, but I think those who provoked him by feeding him information are like that. I will continue my fight until my last drop of blood because I am right. There may be points where I’m wrong or made mistakes—I’m human, I can make mistakes. I accept them and apologize, but I will also continue to fight against lies and slander. I’ll post this message on the main post as well so everyone can read it. My goal is to use Ethos and EthosAgent properly. I’ve been in this industry since 2012. At the end of 2012, I received an airdrop from Ripple because I was a beta user. There was RippleTrade back then, and Jed McCaleb gave me 10,000 XRP. Only 2,000 people worldwide received it, and I was the only one from Turkey. Getting an airdrop, making efforts in that direction—it’s not shameful, sinful, or wrong. I love testing, trying, and using new projects. As I said, sometimes pressing the wrong buttons is part of the process. In conclusion, I’ll say this: I don’t take this “slash” or this person (Doğacan and their supporters) seriously. But there are respectable people among them who have simply believed these lies and slanders. I still believe Serpin is a person of good character. They say you test gold with fire and a woman with gold. Some people in this industry are like women—they sell themselves for a few pennies. Those who understand will understand, and those who take it personally can take it. I will continue my righteous fight, and in the end, I and noble people like me will stand tall. My advice to Serpin: Remove the ban system from EthosAgent. Banning doesn’t get EthosAgent anywhere. Write code to prevent abuse. Right now, having two names in the panel is a bug—both belong to the same X account. Merge them. Let everyone use the system fairly. I think we share the same view: we’re against dictatorship and centralized structures. We’re against miner mafias in Ethereum. Let Hyperliquid be our example—community first. No VCs, influencers, etc. Greetings to honest people, and thanks to everyone, especially those who support me, the fair ones, the brave, and the honest. I’ll always be on-chain, but some will remain off-chain. Respect and love to everyone. Sometimes someone comes along and lights the fire, like the Olympic flame. Let the torch always be in our hands.
