I understand your hesitance, but I think it bears saying that you can be patient, persistent, and positive AND critical of how things are at the same time. Those concepts are not antithetical to one another. Part of being helpful and solving problems within groups of people, in my opinion, is being able to cast a scrutinizing eye inward as much as you do outward.
I understand why some feel defensive over this post and it really wasn't my intent to upset anyone, but I really do think people in the community are intelligent and can handle stuff like this reasonably.
