I thought my recent was long at about 1200 less words, yet I probably could have wrote 5000 more.  I know the feeling.

And when it comes to giving or taking away in a world like what's being created here, the more minds in on the decisions, the better.  The more straightforward of an approach that removes the canvassing, politicking, drumming up support, etc.; the better.  That's why I like that proposal system.  The option is simply *there*, and those wishing to take part can simply do it without being pressured.  You wouldn't see the abusive types who enjoy harassing others succeeding in getting downvotes muted by being pushy; just like don't see folks asking for development funds trying to get them by being pushy.  *But I'm not trying to sell this idea.  Just thinking about it openly.  Already wrote a book on it, stashed away in some random comment section out there.*
