You want to know why people leave Misplaced Pages?

It's because of assholes who harass people at will, and admins who are too lazy to take action on it, or who agree with the asshole's political views.

It's a culture where the social media aspect of Misplaced Pages is more important than creating content.

It's an institution that is slowly dying, from self-inflicted wounds, from allowing children to be admins to allowing mindless obedience to rules to be more important than content.

It is an organization where the janitor is more important and powerful than the writers. Where the copyeditors carry more weight than the people creating the content.

That's why Misplaced Pages is losing both editors and admins. It is why it is going to continue to do so.

I'm done.

thank you

A Comment on Your Previous Racist Statements

@JordanGero: I'm retired, you moron. Go spread your revisionist history BS elsewhere. I'll also remind you that everyone in the conversation took the position I took, not yours, and will point out that I do not need your guidance. Come back when you've actually created content.
