Edit: It's also somewhat ironic that the guy who tipped off massivelyOP about this Open Letter was a signatory of the previous Open Letter that caused IIs and CGs to be cancelled and this was a cause of the current Galnet emptiness. something something careful what you wish for...
Quite. Also, while i casually read massivelyOP, i wouldn't put too much value on it. It's a site run by a small number of people. That makes them very vulnerable to manipulation, not to mention that it became visible several times in the past, that some of the writers also use the site to push their own agendas.
So actually in case of ED, the site up to now did much more harm than they could do good still. (That's completely disconnected from this thread and the idea of reviving GalNet. I would really appreciate this. This posting is only about the impact of the mentioned external site. )
