If this is about the A**r crud, I've done my due diligence reading up on relevant white papers and forum pages as far as I can be arsed to given my educational background and emotional investment in the topic— there's a reason I get irritated when certain people or things are discussed here; I personally call BS and suspect under the table dealings with Pork Toppers, but those are all unsubstantiated paranoia.
That aside it seems to me you are genuinely someone who seems to want meaningful conversation, and I'm sorry it ended up with a HTWF thread with the usual ribbing.
From my inevitably biased perspective I cannot see how anything good might yet come from Certain Sources™, but I'm happy to eat my keystrokes if proven mistaken.
You could have private convo'd any of the staff here instead of going the drama queen route. Or just drop off like most people would do. Now you'll not only have your profile and everything left intact, but you'll have the added pleasure of others ripping on you.
Whoa! @julian67, just tell yourself to take a week off. After that, decide whether the deficiencies you perceive here in SBAF are worth leaving. Don't just stomp off in a huff. Even if the huff is inevitable, don't burn bridges. Just stuff I learnt in my years on the internet.
I'm still a member of the forum I walked away from because it is full of bullshit. I don't intend to go back and participate, and they know it, but... still I got nice enquiries and support when our city was flooded. And still people say hi sometimes if we meet. Better bridges than burnt.
(Not Headfi. I guess I still have membership there too, but don't care.)
