I think it a shame that you guys would consider halting the modus operandi around here. Its good to see you guys criticize and the reaction of outsiders to your way of doing things here shouldn't change anything.
At the core, you guys have your reasons (though on the surface you appear, and pride yourselves on, as being a bunch of asses). If others can't find anything useful in what you do, its their own shortcoming, not yours.
As far as revolutions are concerned, thats probably hopefully dramatic. However, I think some reasonable improvements can be realized if the criticism is acted upon in atleast some small way (within the concerned's realm of control atleast).
