I'm not sure what the silent (except via PM or e-mail) members who are afraid to post in this thread think of the issue. However, if someone were so motivated, they could start a "online petition" thread asking TB to reconsider a particular section of the guidelines. All a member would have to do is post "signed" to signify their agreement. If the numbers are truly overwhelming, I'm sure the TB would take note.
