You know, this has been grating at me for 2 days.
Folks here aren't mad at Admin, Mods, or Coords.  Folks are mad at the company.
Just who the hell do you think the "company" is?  Some evil overlords in the dungeons of Nashville, with 3-piece Armani suits, budding horns, and reddish/burnt skin with yellow eyes, plotting each and every move to maximize community pisstitude?
You want to know who the "Company" is?
This is the Company.  That's right.  The very people who are lambasted on an almost daily basis because everyone on Earth is too used to Burger King's "Have It Your Way" mentality. 
Yes, as a company, things are done that individuals might not agree on.  That happens with every company.  And, yes, there are those of us behind the scenes who do raise our voices when things are brought out that we don't agree with.
I currently forgot where I started with my point, as I'm currently being heavily medicated for abdominal pain, and the medicine makes my head foggy.
But, don't, for one second, think that by distancing yourself by saying "I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the company" isn't insulting.  We ARE the company.

nicely said. i know when i complain about the company i usually mean those who like yourself and other admin who i think have cocked up. no good saying anything else. excellent to see you speak your mind. i mean it sincerely when i say i think in the main you all do a good job.

sometimes it's too easy for us to turn a complaint into an attack, i know i've been guilty of it before now.  i think mods and admin (wrongly) have an inherent target on them. we tend to think our complaint gives us rights that don't really exist. we get carried away by our own verbosity. i dare say i'll do it again should the occassion arise but i will think two or three times before i make it personal again. none of you who work here deserve that. nice post morrigan
