Yeah, it's becoming more centralised and more corporate ethics are coming to the fore almost every day. At least with a traditional company on a stock market you can have some input at an AGM, here it's all back room negotiations that I'll never be privy to.

It seemed like such a good idea when I joined but it's turned out to be mostly based on bullshit (SMT's anyone) and it's still in a beta form that new users find so unworkable that most of them just leave.

I'm just about over it too, they can take their bat and ball home and keep them for themselves.
