<p>I also have a question, why all my CR were approved with a 99% threshold? Why are you trying to block all my contributions and requests only now?</p>

<h3>Cycle 8</h3>
<p>I called you out on some strange items <a href="https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues/416#issuecomment-559582652" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/bisq-network/compensation/issues/416/hovercard">in your very first request</a> back in Cycle 8.</p>
<h3>Cycle 9</h3>
<p>Although I never publicly commented it, I rejected your <a href="https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues/463" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/bisq-network/compensation/issues/463/hovercard">Cycle 9 request</a> in the DAO. The numbers were flat-out ridiculous for anyone familiar with web work. I've built and run a number of digital properties away from Bisq, so I know what I'm talking about. One doesn't need to be an expert in digital marketing to see that asking for 100 BSQ to update the copyright year of a website is unreasonable.</p>
<p>Perhaps contributors would like to know that this already-extreme Cycle 9 number is <strong>half</strong> of what you were going to originally request.</p>

<h3>Cycle 10</h3>
<p>Despite all this, I again allowed your request in <a href="https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues/479" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/bisq-network/compensation/issues/479/hovercard">Cycle 10</a> even though I knew it was another extreme one...2000 USD for a domestic trip for 1 day? Crazy. Why did I do it? To be professional to you since there was no prior discussion on trip expenses, and I didn't think rejecting it outright would have been honorable on my part (I noted these concessions <a href="https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues/479#issuecomment-586314620" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/bisq-network/compensation/issues/479/hovercard">in my approval comment</a>). Most importantly, budgeting was just going into practice at the time, and I knew nothing like that could ever happen again.</p>
<p>This isn't a new thing. Your contributions have been suspect since you started contributing. Hindsight is 20/20, and DAO stakeholders feel ripped off.</p>
<p>I will reject this request, and I hope others do too.</p>
