In reply to the discussion: Whatever happened to the idea of starting an antinuclear activism group? [View all]FBaggins
(28,678 posts)The current group works fine. As I understand it they worked collaboratively to set standards that they could all support and have done a great job. Despite all the childish whining about what some feared would happen, we've had not irrational bannings, no on-topic threads blocked because a host didn't like the subject. No picking sides and using the power of the office to influence the conversation.
In short, the earlier concerns turned out to be wildy misapplied (and potentially said more about those "concerned" than those they were concerned about). I for one wouldn't want to mess with that effective balance... particularly if it meant adding an element that formerly held the concerns and doesn't now recognize the error. It's reasonable to ask how he feels now.
You seem worried about the idea of "disruptors" being "spotted". Guilty conscience?
Not a bit. I'm well aware that there are a handful here who see disruption in anyone who doesn't agree with them. The only "worry" would be handing such poor character judgement the power to make it stick.
