*Sigh....and therin lies the problem....
I can only presume that Bob means well, but there are times when he just SO does not 'get' stuff.
He seems unable to do so.
I do not in ANY way mean this to diss Bob. He is human like the rest of us. He must have his own issues, all do.
But it does cause problems IMHO when he is the last ultimate authority, and therefore he is like a god or something on this site. He can make any descision he wants, off the cuff, or deeply thought out...I do not know. He seems to be a busy man at times. And once he has made a descision....he sadly rarely will change his mind, despite entreaties from many other posters :-(
These are problems that I see.
Bob is Bob, I just wonder if somehow he could take in more input regarding some of his descions, and I wish he could be a wee bit more flexible.
Maybe meet w/his deps a little more frequently in chat? Maybe he does, I don't know. There needs to be better more consistant regular communication amongst the admin people I am guessing. Mebbe meet 2-3/month at a regular time in chat? Maybe the logistics are not there. They could try.....
To give him some credit, he HAS been more lenient in general than he has been in the past, but yes, there are definately cases recently that I do not agree with.
Its unfortunate.
I wish I could explain it better.
