Re: EvC Forum Future Directions

Late November witnessed a major blow-up over yet other philosophical differences and resulted in the departure of Jar, Nwr, Omni and Ringo.
​
Just to clarify:
​
I didn't follow the Percy/nwr fracas at all - didn't read any of the thread - and I have little or no idea why jar, nwr and Omni decided to leave. I pulled the plug because of Percy/Admin's comments after the fact, regarding his "vision" for the site.
​
The elitist/populist "division" clearly describes my position: I don't feel that I have anything to contribute to the site as you conceive it.
​
(Not that anything is carved in stone. )
​
Best wishes.

Nonetheless, Dr. A spoke the truth.
​
Before there even was a Showcase, I got away once with calling Randman "the village idiot".
I assumed that I wasn't suspended for it because it was so blindingly obviously true.
​
It needs to be said once in a while, for the benefit of newcomers who might otherwise think the lunatics are running the asylum.

... I fail to see him as despicably worse than some of the rest of us here at EvC.

It's seldom a good idea to cite your own failings.
