Keep in touch <3
Forum drama happens. It can and will be stressful for some people sometimes. Everyone has different opinions on how things should run. Emotions get high when things like privacy, harassment, and rape are thrown into the mix.
I'll say this for whatever it's worth and for whoever wanted to know. While there are obviously disagreements sometimes I think everyone on staff genuinely cares about this community and what is best for the forum as a whole. The disagreement is generally a good thing because otherwise there would never be change and change is important sometimes. If anyone feels the forum is being run wrong I for one welcome your complaints on it. I don't even mind if you say we are all shite at our jobs. I do think it should be done in a different thread though as that's not what this one is really supposed to be here for.
It's good for us to know what bothers whom and why. It doesn't mean we will reset the rules just to please you but we are paying attention.
I'm just babbling on. I only slept for like 20 minutes last night. I'm pretty sure I made a point or two in there.
Things are going to be ok on AF. Just because we don't change the rules when members demand it doesn't mean we don't care. I think a lot of people really don't understand what they're asking for. I don't mean Rob, I think he had some great ideas and it's a shame he didn't feel he could compromise on them but I understand his position. Sigh. I think it would be good for everyone with an opinion on this to take a really deep breath and maybe even try to put it out of your mind for a day or two. Keep reminding yourself that there isn't necessarily a right or wrong between two disagreeing sides.
