Good article. I am somewhat aware of who @stan is, and have a little knowledge of Bitshares, but not fully. However, I never saw anything from him that would suggest malicious behavior.

I, fortunately haven't delved into the depths enough yet to see this gang mentality here, but I'm sure I will. Like many, I think, getting away from that was one of the many appeals of this platform. This is a great place to practice kindness and understanding, and it sucks some people just use it to be assholes.
