It is the cumulative effect of a number of people being attacked recently over objectively trivial (or non-existent) issues. Disagreeing with a policy (or lack of one) is one thing, having a go at individuals is another. And even then you should have some sort of alternative suggestion, however useless and impractical. Saying when things are going well is a good thing to do. I believe I have stated that I think CNCC has scrubbed up in recent years for example, it is now pretty optimal. I try to consider things from the perspective of a young person with not much money, which is when we struggled a bit.
Nobody is getting paid, it’s not a job. If anything there is a shortage of people willing to do the boring stuff. I retired rather than go to another meeting in my life.
If you continue to have a perspective problem, then watching the Detectorists will hopefully set you straight.
