Because people take it so seriously that they edit

the project over it, as incomprehenible to me as that is. It's as if the
result of this battle over userboxes will have any direct impact on the
quality of the articles. It won't. Whether userboxes stay or not, I really
wish we would all just let it go and write the fucking encyclopedia already.
The fact that some people spend so much time on the mailing list trying to
ensure that they get their way in this shitheap of an "issue" makes me
wonder what you are all really here to do.
I don't usually agree with Ryan Delaney much, but let it go on the
record that I fully endorse this particular viewpoint. Can't the whole
userboxen issue be let go? We have a CSD and people are enforcing it.
The bitching is slowly ceasing, so let's not do anything to provoke
another full-scale riot, huh?
