The thing that quite visibly that happened is that some folks don't
recognize that their actions affect others and take responsibility for
those actions. I have learned much to my dismay that there is a certain
percentage of a group that will not follow the intent of the group
despite any amount of support given to them.

Asking this question dismisses all the hard work that both Mike and
myself and many others including some very committed operators have put
into this space.

Some folks just will not respect other people's time. To pretend
otherwise is a huge dis-service to folks trying their hardest to support
those worthy of the support.

I'm really disappointed that there hasn't been more support for Mike in
this process. I can see how everyone thought I was the problem last year
when I had to endure this kind of treatment in Neutron, but I would
think after seeing the exact same kind of behaviour a second time folks
might be starting to see the pattern.
