here's a bear for you, Mister M.

I seem to be much more forgiving of technical problems than ethical ones. When tribe.net was unfairly punishing popular users, I thought my head would explode with rage. I seem to find myself in sympathy with the current mgmt., even though they kinda seem to hate and despise me, and despite the whole deal with the one threat-making stalker that told more than one member he'd have their children taken away from them being allowed to return and enjoy protection as he now presses the envelope further, further each day, adding new lies to his repertoire and becoming bold enough to being terrorizing the *same targets* of his earlier threats...

I can understand their position, and am well aware of the logistical and financial difficulties associated with the enterprise, labor of love that it is, and so, despite allllll that shit, I'm grateful to them for pushing the boulder up the hill, and confused when people give them such acrimonious harassment for it - it's not like this or that individual mgmt person is the soul of the network. They're human beings. Humans suck and make mistakes and are habitually evil.

In other words, it's passing hypocritical for you to have addressed them this way, Unsubscribed.

My understanding probably relies on the fact that I never paid for a subscription, eh? I'd never give money to a business that wouldn't apologize to me for injuring me multiple times and openly practicing favoritism. That's just a matter of principles, not any obligation (nor any kind of absolution) for any individual in the current mgmt. organization at all. I have deep love and strong attachment to a few of the insane fucks on this network, and so the team has my gratitude. Pretty simple.
