Default Re: Some facts - not false news.

Some people here approve of the Trust, and others don't. It's like everything else on the planet, be that the weather, politics, or the price of fish.

However...

There are some on here who's opinions about matters are expressed in a cynical and unwarranted manner. That applies in particular to those who argue against the Trust. Note, ARGUE, not express an opinion.

I doubt that many sane individuals who enjoy peaceful evenings at home after a hard day's work would willingly volunteer to be verbally abused by those who think they do a poor job but who aren't prepared to explain just how they would go about producing the better results that they are looking for.

That's not a "put up or shut up" request. Ideas are welcome, but shooting people down with little or no knowledge of what they do in their capacities in the Trust is a route to putting people off from volunteering their ideas or services. It smacks of the playground bully - the ignorant one that had plenty to say until his victim clacked him one. As has been said, ideas are welcome, and so is criticism where the problem can be identified and an alternative put forward. That applies equally to personalities as it does to plans that fail to provide their objectives.

Debate is fair enough, and RP is well known for providing it in spades. No-one is saying that debate shouldn't continue, but let's not put some people off the idea of making positive contributions for the (justifiable) fear that they will meet with criticism as soon as anything fails to meet a few fans' unqualified and possibly impossible expectations.
