14. I agree with you even though I do understand the concerns being aired

It's great to be able to discuss it, and then see what we can do, and want to do, once we know what options we have.

Many people are in a protective phase where they want to explore safely.

In my case I really run too much from conflict and need to explore how to keep my center, and still deal with people who are a little disruptive. I have run away from DU more times than I care to mention, because of the negativity in other areas, so there are times I would have voted to Opt Out myself. For me, now, I want to figure out how to be in my world, and the greater world at the same time. Hosting, even in a safe place is letting me work that out.

As it is I'm happy to go with what the consensus thinks. We can always try one path and then another.
