This is awesome, man. I walked away a little shocked by the whole thing and the negativity that came out of it all… I always like to think of our community as super supportive but I got a really cliquey feeling yesterday from all of this.

I engaged a little bit initially trying to get some better feedback out of some people, and may not have made my position clear (partially because I’m like you: young and a kiss-ass lol). Overall, however, it was shocking and I really appreciate Marissa and Tanner for their efforts to help nurture a better community for us.

I could go into the overtones and undertones I gathered from the whole thing, but I’ll take the positive road and not go there.

tl;dr I was a little stunned by the reaction, and I think we should honestly ask ourselves where we want to be as a community.
