@Argon31 is a known troll in virtually every thread he participates. He's only been "participating" since February and showed up out of the blue being rude to everyone and ignoring any questions about himself and his behavior and stake in Dash, something about which I've perpetually accosted him. Most of what he says can thus be summarily ignored, don't waste your time responding to him.
As a MNO myself and someone very active across multiple platforms, I've seen several members of your team actively working and providing updates and corrections and other kinds of valuable information on a regular basis. More than that, what has impressed me about your work is that you've done so in a very objective, unbiased manner, providing information without opinion. What you do is a huge service to what the rest of us do, and given that and how you plan to alter the scope of your service, I think your asking price is fairly reasonable. I would urge you to wait until the next budget cycle, of course and to submit early to increase your chances of being funded simply because of the carry over this month from previous cycles and the fact that the beginning of this cycle came at a low point in Dash price. Next cycle should hopefully have much more room, but other than that, you will have my support. I don't mind that your workers are paid generously, just try to keep your costs from escalating too much the way some proposals do, and keep coordinating with and adding value to the other proposals we fund and I foresee a long-standing partnership.
