fury, I know what it's like to feel like you've been beaten. And if you recall, I have spoken in defense of the admin and mods of this site more than a few times when they're slammed for making decisions. And if you don't remember that, there's nothing I can do about it; I'll only know in the future that it too falls on deaf ears.
But when speaking in generalities, there's no good answer or solution. If your attitude about the board and it's people makes you give up entirely on everything, you already know what I think about that. I look to you for leadership, and if this is what you want, I'll look to someone else. But who ever is running this place shouldn't turn a blind eye to what is much much more than 'a few attacks aimed in your direction'.
Let's not even get into the subject of how easily people give up and how they're 'pussies' if they do. Everyone has a different level of shit they're willing to put up with-as do you and me. Again, something we have discussed in length elsewhere recently. The people who are willing to dish out the shit are always the ones who survive because they are relentless.
I don't want to beat a dead horse (again). fury, I just wanted you to know where I'm coming from. I understand how you feel more than you think I do.
