Here's my take and perspective on these key folks in MI world over the years
Thanks greatly for that anchak. And these compliments do not include the vast credit to many others here that produced the culture from earlier on, for example I already pointed to Elan on my second post, but there are many others either lurking (and some on holidays that disappear but then work their way back*).
Getting the culture right is extremely important. I believe the MI board is able to work this out itself, as it has done in the past. However, if anything gets out of hand, please let me know and I can act upon (within reasonable or common-sense observation) the consensus!
My own advice for the board: Please also remember to write your posts, at least sometimes, in as *complete* a manner as you can; for example explaining terms, or including an introduction if it isn't obvious what you are referring to or continuing from. As a heuristic, imagine someone reading the board for the first time: Write for them as well sometimes, along-side the 'insiders'. A club mentality is necessary to extent just for sheer efficiency, but please - as mungofitch does exceptionally well and others are perfectly capable (regarding this specific point about audience) - please write sometimes for a broader (maybe less informed, but what is valuable - curious) audience. It will benefit not only the community but in some cases even useful even for yourself in the long-term.
