I mean, honestly, it's kinda open to interpretation. What I took from it, is that this platform isn't at its essence designed for avid readers or people that are looking for ground breaking material or creative intelligence. So you are deciding to step away. I think your time definitely isn't met with the proper audience because of like I said, "all of the dick sucking/yes men strategy going around, due to the governance of this community as a whole. It's not really important if you fucking absolutely hit the mark with the best you have to offer. It's not really about the content. It's about who's ass you kiss, or the people you know. There is an old saying of, "never outshine the master". And that one quote alone, comes with tons of wisdom, know how, and an understanding of hierarchy/pecking order, before it all makes sense, and then you can move properly, without upsetting the powers at hand.
If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
I attempted to answer what you asked, so with due diligence attempt to answer my last remark. Although I do recognize the uncalled for backhanded compliments, I don't take any of this shit personally. And I will only show love, especially when I don't have a bone to pick with you.
