These threads almost never work well despite best intentions, so I don't blame Nutty for locking it, though I do enjoy seeing the good faith responses in these.
Nutty already did the line by line, so I'll simply add: PM/DMs. They're always open, and you will get a response. Anyone who wants to have this conversation with me, just find me there and I'm happy to have it. I don't think I've ever been too busy for it, even if it means waiting for a response or two.
One thing I didn't see Nutty mention: some of the changes in staff reactions over the years reflect policy changes handed down. Worth noting.
Wanna get involved? You know where to find me.
Thanks!
