[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I subscribed to DCUM back in the listserve days. It was smaller and more of a community then. When things get bigger, the thoughtfulness goes away. Even though it's been anonymous for a while now, the increasing size and accessibility make it seem even more anonymous = less thoughtful and more mean

At the same time, I have long thought that this would be a GREAT site for Russian bots or other intelligence services to target -- lots of high powered zip codes represented here, and an ability to plant discord, stir culture wars, etc. seems like it may be pretty unmatched given this is a plain old parenting site.

I don't live in the area any more and can 100% say that the idea of returning to DC is less and less appealing given what I read here. Even the non-nasty posts validate all my stereotypes about the DC (where I grew up!) as power hungry, status obsessed, rat racy and overly Type A.

I grew up in DC too and the idea of ever returning makes my stomach turn.  Aggressively competitive, conventional, humorless hall monitors dominate the scene.[/quote]
