Default Open letter to members that intend to leave.

Today, may 17, Norway's, birthday or day of independence, I think I have been a WPW member for exactly 2 years. I have had my relatively small conflicts with other members and moderators, since I often write what I think, but not always.

I see that some valuable members intend to leave WPW if / when the rating system is implemented. My advicve.
  1. If you do not like the rating system, shut your eyes, read and write. Should there be an ignore (on/off) button?
  2. If you think it is very biased, comment on it in the breakroom or in this subforum.
  3. Remember it is always up to the editor of a newspaper to edit it. (S)he may have the last responsibility for what (s)he allows people to write.
  4. So if you intend to leave, sleep on it. What is the alternative? Is it sure that the alternative is better?
  5. May be the rating system may have one positive effect, more members will think before they hit the carriage return. The negative is that posts that would have been written without the rating system is no longer posted.
