Questions about proposed changes

[Kaden]

My responses earlier were ones of frustration. I feel like there's a perception that we don't know what the current problems are, don't care what the current problems are, can't fix what the current problems are or some combination of the above. I understand that that may be an unfair perception on my part and I understand that people are only still here because they like the site and care, but emotions are stupid like that.

I do spend a lot of time thinking about the site and, honestly, expend a lot more energy on Chubbs than I generally feel is worth it (sob sob, poor me). I don't and won't communicate every thought I have about potential changes (that would drive everyone insane) and, honestly, I don't even like presenting the ideas that I think are good and worth pursuing. Most of the time presenting an idea publicly just ends up with it getting picked apart until it feels like "well what's the point?"

A lack of constant communication, though, shouldn't be seen as a lack of interest or effort and I feel like that's another thing that's happening. Stuff's being worked on. What we want to do is a lot harder than just making a new system. We want to take the current one, with the current players, and make it more viable within the technical constraints of our coding.

I guess the short version is I think people on both sides of the aisle are perceiving things incorrectly. This struck me in a particularly bad way today and I responded poorly.
