When push comes to shove people will only think about saving themselves. You think the members on here would have been a consideration when it came to selling out this site but we were not. Remember that in anything in life like someone you think really cares for your well being (therapist). They care up until they need to save their own *** and your *** is in the way or there are no consequences to dropping you like a hot potato.

I was thinking this, too. It kind of reminds me of when I rent apartments from big conglomerates. On the way in it's "Here's a special key chain," and "hope you enjoy your new home," - but on the way out suddenly you are a stranger...even after renting for four or five years! No one even waves goodbye.
I have had a few online communities I love sort of melt away. I always think I am prepared for it...but I never am. I always felt Psych Central was the exception...that is was a safe place...forever. That was probably naive.
The lockdown has kind of made me sick of the Internet. I don't want to feel a part of something important online and then have the rug pulled out from under me.
I feel sad.
