Voting has been enabled and the forum lives. How many members continue to check this site and click on a few of the best comments of the day and that's all the time they can spend? Will there be interesting discussions with thought provoking comments? Hopefully, other people will post instead of just reading.
As time passes, events and issues emerge and we discuss them here. Some members have become disgusted with this site because of the constant bickering among ourselves, spewing disrespectful comments toward other posters. We should resolve to eliminate as much of that as we can. Perhaps we should all agree to try not to stinkle any comments, even though some comments deserve it.
Linking articles, videos, tweets, etc. make this a valuable site for the OWS cause. Thoughts and discussions can be interesting. Defending an idea during a debate is expected and we should all recognize there will continue to be disagreements. We the members of the OccupyWallSt.org. site will have to earn respect, something not possible if we only argue incessantly. Aren't we on the same team?
The points system has been criticized because of a desire to have lots of points. I suggest that when a poster reaches the 1,000 point level, further points are counted but not posted on the page. There is probably a better idea but the problem exists.
Yea JART! Thanks for continued care for all on the site, and your commitment and time! THANKS
