So "playing with" a handful of us who may actually be more frustrated than the average poster here is fun?

I have to seriously wonder about the mentality of anyone acting with that motive.

But yeah, I'll just relax. I have much, much better things to do than spend time addressing this idea of "fun".

Thanks for your compliment, and I actually agree with the sentiment you and others have expressed. Does any one attacking the council (or the concept) think any of us are happy with outcomes this year? Seriously?

Come on folks. Think.

This post, and I'm shutting up:

You're welcome.

Ok, won't ignore it completely.

Texrat.. this is my one comment:

Look, there you are *sticks out an e-finger and pokes you*, see? I see you, you see me.. you TALK to me..

It's MUCH easier to criticize you.. than that ghost over there in the corner. See him there? No? me neither.. he never talks to me. I sit for hours talking to the corner and get nothing..

But you.. you talk back. Then you get all red faced.. it's soo cute!!! I think I'll focus on you.

(please see the unnecessarily extreme amounts of sarcasm in this post...)

I for one is happy that I can provide a degree of consistency in this time of turmoil.

Consistency here, for sure. But not in general... darkbulb.

You're a fantastic moderator and your sense of judgement is impeccable.

Not to mention insight. My moderator access is more limited than you assume.

I dont blame Council members and what I wrote is of course Nokia's fault. I appreciate everything you guys are trying to accomplish. Sadly its Nokia who fails to listen and makes you weaker...

I'm pretty much done indulging the bickering and bashing tonight, but I have some serious questions, and not just rhetorical:

What do you want?

Does anyone want the current council to disband? Do you want more visibility of process? An accounting of effort? A token victory?

I'm completely serious. If I/we are going to be attacked despite making every possible effort in every way I/we can to support this community, then I want to understand that attack better.

What do you want?

Is there even any sort of consensus? Or should I/we simply ignore those complaints of known malcontents, and focus solely on the remaining few with constructive criticism?

What?

I am not on this council bandwagon deal but I do have a suggestion.

What if you made more of your "fights" public to the community? This would show "hey look we really do things here".

Again I am not bashing, nor do I want to cause problems just a suggestion is all.
