You know, if you look back a ways, it started out that way, and in fact remained that way (give or take) for quite a while. It was sometime earlier this year that things really began to go downhill fast, and .mobi supporters began to get much more defensive due to the relentless bashing of a few particular posters. In the process of being defensive, some equally ridiculous and sometimes "unprofessional" things were said by some.
While the blame can be spread around in many directions, the repercussions from what has taken place here will only spread in one: away from this subforum and on to greener pastures. It's really pretty sad -- for a while there, it was a great place for those of us investing in .mobi. Now many have left for good, others will pop in from time to time, but I think the spirit here has been pretty well ruined. But that doesn't mean that those who believe in .mobi's future success have changed their minds -- it's just going to be elsewhere that they pursue their goals.
