Or we can just ignore that post I wrote alltogether, since it isn't all that profound. -And I agree that some more awakeness would be in place, and not sitting at work speedtyping due to to much coffee... :P

There is only one simple thing you must do if you want to improve your writing, in ANY context:
Reread what you wrote before you send it off.
Free Speech
Show
Free speech is the right to speak your mind without government censorship and without fear of extralegal retaliation like harassment or violence. That’s all!
Free speech doesn’t include the right to speak your mind on any forum anywhere.
The government may not prevent you from speaking, but private parties, like blog owners or corporations, aren’t required to let you use their property as your platform.
Free speech doesn’t include the right to be believed or to be taken seriously.
People may mock, ridicule or laugh at what you say, or they may reject it outright.
Free speech doesn’t include the right to be listened to.
People who don’t desire to hear your opinion can hang up on you, block you on social media, change the channel, close the browser tab. Free speech doesn’t give you the right to bombard people with harassing messages or otherwise force them to pay attention to you against their will.
And free speech doesn’t include the right to suffer no consequences whatsoever for your expressed opinions.

Worth and I still read the forums regularly and discuss a lot of what happens here internally. Unfortunately, we just have not had the time lately to communicate as much as we would like. I will see what we can do in the long term to improve communications, but I cannot make any promises in the short term.

Funny how many of us find the time during our work days to both read AND post on the forums

To be fair I think he does a lot of that on his personal time off the clock and the people on twitter are much more respectful to the WOTC from what I've seen.

So your opinion is that people who don't have something to gain wont be respectful? That seems rather revealing.

No, his opinion is that ppl who have something to lose won't be disrespectful.

I'd really like to just say "Oh OK" because that seems like the respectful thing to say here. After all as a master of psychic nuance and master of sarcasm I should bow to your far vaster experience. But I know people who risk a lot to be disrespectful despite the apparent insanity of their actions. In addition I know people who have nothing to lose (aside from their own self-respect) who will be respectful anyway. If someone is disrespectful when they have nothing to lose that indicates to me that they have little self-respect. I could be wrong but my experience has taught me this is so.
