I half agree with OHF, and I half don't. I think we need to stop trying to justify whatever we're doing that drives new users away. Clearly, we're doing something we aren't even intentionally meaning to do.

I feel like this because I remember when I had that big blow up about "the social pyramid", and in that rage I realized I was doing a lot of possible hurtful things I had never noticed I was doing.

And Mika, just to let you know, if you're leaving because you feel ignored, that's not a good reason to go. No one here, (I think), is ignored just because we don't like them, but because we tend to get clingy to a subject and then basically ignore everything else around it. It's nothing personal, happens to lots of users all the time.

I just think sitting here going, "Wow, we did it again," is helping, (and I know I had just said that in my last comment, xDD), because it's an empty statment. We're not monsters, we don't know what we're doing wrong.
