| | *Well, Sid, I don't presume to speak for Andy or the kids, however logic would dictate that 100 users working diligently together, toward a common goal and purpose, is superior to 1000 workers constantly arguing and disrupting the work, debating forever the basic ideals of this site. You should do what your Heart tells you, do what your conscience dictates, in deciding if this is the place your ample talents can best be used. --~ [[User:TK|Sysop-TerryK]] <sup>[[User_talk:TK|MyTalk]]</sup> 21:50, 6 April 2007 (EDT) | | *Well, Sid, I don't presume to speak for Andy or the kids, however logic would dictate that 100 users working diligently together, toward a common goal and purpose, is superior to 1000 workers constantly arguing and disrupting the work, debating forever the basic ideals of this site.

| | + | ::Yes, 100 workers working towards a common goal is better than 1000 workers arguing. What you're suggesting, however, is to have those 1000 workers take their arguments to the 100 workers, and in the end NOBODY is working. |
| | + | ::To pack it into an even harsher example: You are basically taking those 1000 workers and telling them "Build a house." You and your 99 buddies each have a mental image of said house, and so do the 1000 workers. In total, there will be nearly 1100 different mental images, and then people go to work, with the 100 people running and shouting whenever they see something going TOTALLY wrong according to their personal vision. Will this end well? |
| | + | ::This site needs more than a "case-by-case" basis. Ever since this site attracted more visitors after the blogs and papers reported about it, people have complained about the lack of an openly stated goal (or, as others have phrased it: "Conservapedia doesn't admit its own bias."). Now this lack of a goal has effectively been turned into a policy. --[[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]] 22:11, 6 April 2007 (EDT) |
