REVOLUTION!!! We will fight the control!!!
~is turned into pile of goo~
In all seriousness, I do like Tefka's approach. It's not suppose to be the best, but it is suppose to be better than a lot of other things that it could be. The point isn't that it's ideal; it's that it works. Maybe not efficient, but it works, which is better than what we had before I'm sure.
I can say that I did butt heads a few times, at least from my point of view, with some of the members here, but looking back on it, you don't get the best impression from someone from just one encounter. I mention this because some of the people I butt heads with were mods for one reason or another. It's not the point that I get along with them, but that I can be civil enough so that they can do their job properly. I will be among those to say that, honestly, I have next to no experience running a site. I've created my own boards, but they unfortunately never got off the ground. I have experience in face-to-face situations, not something over a computer. So what little I do know, I'm still learning in applying it to a setting in a form appropriate for it.
My point: we're all learning from our mistakes. Let us hope we learn from them sooner rather than later.
