advocate for what you believe is right, in the correct channels!
i guess this is the channel for now (for vc stories and advocacy)!
Something had to be done, and this seems to be working so far.

Actually, the moderators wanted to nuke A&S completely, out of frustration. Then Joe and I discussed just locking it down for a few days. But I think he had suggested before (he is a pretty smart guy) making a subforum in A&S for VC, so here we are. If nothing else, admitting the problem exists seems to have done some good. My singular description of the forums is "Community". If we cannot share ideas and respect other's opinions, we have no community. And if the moderators and admins had a mission statement, it would be something along the lines of preserving, maintaining, and growing our community.
