To those who have chosen to attack and criticize:

Conclusions that some have made about my motives and who and what I am when you have never met me and spoken to me are quite amazing. Until you have run something like this, until you have run a venture of this size (including the main site) - I think the saying applies that you can never judge a person until you have walked in their shoes.

No doubt we have made some mistakes - as with just about all organizations, there are growing pains, changes in policies, improvements, attempts at improvements, etc. We are always happy to have those here who have a wide breadth of understanding and realize that most are here to learn, teach others or both and that their motives and mine are good ones. We are also happy to have specific suggestions for improvement.

Some posts I don't answer because it is not clear to me what you are suggesting be changed - only that you don't like how things are. Other times, I am simply too busy with other work - artists waiting for their web site to be updated or planning the SOG dinner at the conference.

For those who have concluded that I am a snob, I can do nothing about that - but, do you really know me? I have seen time and again on the web that people easily make inaccurate conclusions about others. Perhaps a better approach would be specific constructive suggestions without attacks.
