yes i agree completely, especially with what you said about Hubski having the tools to make it what you want it to be. I think a lot of the problem that some people are having is that, like pablo said, people in effect treat the site as " MY Hubski," and their concern, i guess, is that eventually all the things and people they don't like will invade their little slice of Hubski that they've apparently claimed ownership of.

i think having people who can connect to the site like that is a good thing, but what i don't understand is why this proprietary mindset automatically means a hostility towards new users. Maybe i see things differently as one of the new users, but if a site is designed to expose you to new ideas and information, why would you want to restrict yourself to the same handful of people and thoughts you're already familiar with?
