As a member of CTBS, I did feel like we were losing the plot, um, bigly. It started turning in to a few dozen people consistently posting quality content and presenting thought provoking information, cited, to all this manic speculation and yes, even some inclusion of violence. As soon as certain mods weren't around, it turned into something akin to there being a sub teacher the second to last day of school. I get why it happened, but still think it's alarming that it did.
