The standards we have here have always been the same. GD asks only that a poster be rational. It has never demmanded that posters be polite, or have similar viewpoints, or all talk about sex, or try desperately hard to be funny ...

When you're speaking about what you demand please do not hide behind the collective.

There are now and have ever been posters who endure a great deal of negativity without leaving. It seems childish to start worrying about negativity now.

Yes there are, thankfully,
exceptions.

The community has never been split precisely because it has never been joined.

There was once a forum where all the GD posters posted. Now there's two. Knock, knock.

The simplest truth is that people always return: don't they dear weeks. And they return because what we have and what we are can not be replicated anywhere else.

I returned because despite the elitism I like this forum. A lot of others don't. And a lot of others have stayed away. And that lack of diversity is detrimental to those who are not in the clique of GD posters.
Anyway, dear, sweet Yahwe. I'm going home.
