I've seen so many of these blogs come and go, and the fact that hardly anything ever comes from them is upsetting. You're not the first, and truthfully, I doubt you'll be the last. But I am in agreement. As someone who was and is on the team, lately it has become an even more transparent fact: respect (and trust) is running low. I think, a lot of the times we're disrespectful towards one another, we don't even realize we're doing it, which I really, really think is where most of the problem lies. And when it's pointed out, we - myself included - don't usually like that fact, hence why we don't do anything about it. I'm really looking to change this, though, especially now when users are stepping down from the team and considering - if not leaving - the wiki as a whole. I think it also boils down to this happened a while ago, and now I have this opinion on you I can't shake, which has affected the way I address you and everyone that supports you (i.e the person in question & their clique).

The wiki has a lot of team-building exercises to do, but I'm hoping that at the very least this blog opens up communication between the userbase, the team, and one another. What can we do to improve? How are we, as individuals, contributing to this problem? Because by now, I think we can all agree we really need to take some form of action; but what can it be?
