No one ever gives anyone else the fuckin' benefit of the doubt on this
list. There's a lot of good ideas and good debates and reasoning, but
almost none of you trust each other worth a damn.
That strikes me as a less than good thing.
Just pointing this out...
<Elvensage>
I think everyone sees some "key" things that need to be changed within the
CoV to make it more functional. Perhaps we should have a scheduled public
chat too for just this reason. Maybe we can all work together to form some
plans to tackle our domestic problems. Just a thought.
<Kalkor>
And we will *ALL* continue to do so when you make assertions that start with
"no one ever"
I'd like to quote Jake for a moment... 30 Nov 2002:

Some have taken the route of emphasizing the virtues reason, empathy, and
[vision], and avoiding the sins of apathy, hypocrisy, and dogmatism.
Some have viewed this as an exercise/experiment in community building and
organization, in the pursuit of watching memetic forces at work.
Some see this as a place to exchange ideas and conversation with like minded
people, and find quality opinions as well as reliable sources of knowlege.
Some see this as an audience for their soapbox.
Some see this as a place to play with new brain toys.
Some are simply interested in the people here aside from the ideas.
Some indulge in a little hand to hand flaming, and others prefer to avoid
that.
It is by turns one of the more exalted places in the Internet, and by turns
one of the more depraved.
It is in its darkest moments strangely optimistic.
Love,
-Jake
