I give up. The rules don't get enforced. The board tone is over all negative as hell. I am too old to dwell on negativity all day, it actually causes physical harm imho.
I will go back to keeping quiet and just helping folks where I can, when I can.

nooo! when I think of the work you've done over the years that I've known you to make my projects the best they could be, crazy what a tangible asset you've been to my business. more than any one single other person tbh and as you know a LOT of what I do is super-collaborative.
I'd have missed out on so much if you'd been a silent lurker and I never got a chance to get to know you well enough in public to approach you for more involved work
as to the biz thread about Nat's site, I think it's wicked. I see from the quotes in replies that a small handful of idiots have posted their typical crap, but so the fuck what? report and hopefully they get banned but if not ignore them. to me neither clips nor dv exist beyond the occasional quote here and there, and it's hella easy to just skip over quotes.
your thread is a perfect example of self-moderation. most peeps posting there ignored the plankton and some great ideas have been shared. despite the idiots with no skin in the game who aren't evolved enough to interact with peeps in any useful way.
they only have as much power as they are given-by us. we have the ignore function and the chrome extension and the ability not to reply to or quote idiots in actual business threads.
so for real, I hope you don't stay quiet.
besides, who will holler down the stairs at me to turn down my music if you go?
