"Interesting (and disappointing, but not entirely surprising) that many of you are hurrying to log-in (or re-log) with PI Alt"
==
Quas, that's one place that EVERYONE was aware of. No one went there to slight you, we lost our common meeting place and people wanted to know about re-grouping in some manner. I didn't have to"re"-log-in, I still have the hotmail account, it just gets so frigging spammed up I don't even bother to read it any more.
I have what I would have thought would be obvious reasons for stressing some degree of privacy (although some still don't get it),and I understand the desire of the group for wanting to make the "new" place as widely accessible as possible for diversity and interest. Not everyone who has access to that board has access to this one. I'm stressing my opinion there for a reason. I really, really, REALLY do NOT want to go through this again. I have had it, and as so many others have expressed, it is NOT fun anymore. I would like to see the issue resolved in an amicable way so that no more trash and burns will occur, yet enough posters and conversations will be available to make for an interesting and fun place for everyone.
And sassy, I'm going to post something similar at PIAlt for the reasons stated above. If you cannot understand that, I cannot help you, because I do not know how to make it any clearer.
