I appreciate the feedback, huhtenberg. Can you describe what you mean by "blunt and obnoxious"? Maybe we can improve our /about page copy or something else?

On a related note: we just started handing out recommendations to give people in the community the ability to invite others to join the discussion. This way we can enable the community to help grow itself without opening the floodgate entirely. The site and team simply aren't prepared for it.
- huhtenberg 12y agoBlunt and obnoxious means that you don't bother with a basic reply when contacted for a feature, but then become suddenly one's biggest fans and friends, all forthcoming and excited once the product somehow ends up on the site. This comes across an exceptionally cynical, disingenuous and high-brown attitude. And, tangibly, the only benefit of joining in is the exclusivity of becoming one of the cool kids. But that's of a little value if one doesn't have any SV peeps to impress.
- richardburton 12y agoThis seems a little blunt and obnoxious. Ryan is trying to help people get their products out there. I'm sure he has a lot of inbound email and may struggle to reply to everyone.
- chancefeick 12y agoThe site and team simply aren't prepared for it. I'm a fan of PH, but I don't think it's okay to change course on your answer here. Originally, it was closed to build a community with quality content. Now, it's closed due to scalability? Seems like your angle is changing due to pressure.
