As for myself, being called a liar *is* a big deal. I love Mobile Reads, I love the moderator team, and I like you, so I'm hoping this doesn't come off as harsh, but my concerns feel genuine to me, and I would prefer them not be dismissed as a "fit". Since you brought up respect (and rightfully so) earlier in the thread, I hope you can respect my concerns as I do your opinions.

I wasn't referring to you. Sorry if you felt that way.
I was referring to the posts I've seen in this thread that are expressing "screw this, you all suck now and I'm leaving the forum"-type sentiments. That kind of over-reaction helps no one, and as far as I'm concerned we're better off without posts like those. What's needed is to have concerns expressed in a clear and concise manner, with constructive suggestions. So your posts are actually the very opposite of what I'm complaining about...

...like this.
And those kinds of links are of course where the problem is. Me personally, I would post those links anyway, with the disclaimer "I tried to remove all affiliate tags from this link, and if i failed, I apologize".
