Too much contention, too much personal provocation and insults, barely anything related to actually designing and building lately. No wonder they're gonna shut it down. At least if it's on Reddit, nobody can say they're sponsoring the idiocy, sexism, racism, pedophiles and stupidity.
Frankly, I'm kind of relieved.

I notice a LOT of the tension is centered around the fact that I took the time and effort to ask about seed-funding and have been actively working at getting an Incubator Site for people to come build/launch/repair...

I dunno, there's been a lot of unnecessary tension and bickering for years....

Yes, I agree, but by and large the latest spiteful round went ballistic when people suddenly attacked after I emailed TSI and set up the sign-up thread.

Does not surprise me. From experience with other "community" projects, anyone setting up in "competition" to their chosen cause is created by the spawn of Satan...
Sheep will flock together to protect the flock, even if it means running off a cliff. The herd mentality is something I do not understand, and is one of my driving forces behind my pursuit of a self sufficient semi-nomadic oceanic life.
Don't get me wrong, I'll help others anytime I can. But... I prefer the nearest human to be 1000 miles away (the wife is the obvious exception to the rule)

Must admit I was a large part of the problem, after Wil Ellmer tried to charge me for something he offered as 'free'. I tried, repeatedly to make peace, but he refuses to tell the truth about very much, refuses to accept documented fact in his demand for 'scientific debate', claims things that aren't, like the nuclear waste containment dome in the Marshall Islands as a floating sphere, floating structures built afloat, despite being built ashore and launched,... It goes on and on.
