Hey wolo, thanks for the response.

I guess you could say I was burning out at the time. I was more frustrated than anything, being unable to do much that I usually use to keep me sane. I'm usually fairly good at tiring myself out to the point that I just need to sleep but as the community has seen, I've hit a different and slightly embarrassing type of bump. i.e I can't really sleep no matter what.

I don't know if you've experienced something different or something similar, as interesting as kleinbl00 can be, I refuse to follow him and some other extremely notable members of the site for his own reason; he is essentially a power user of Hubski. If he wanted to, he could pretty much collapse what makes this site a third place by overloading it with information that he decided was true due to his large amount of followers. That's why I follow the chatter feed and the global feed. I also have a strong respect for him for not abusing this power and allowing Hubski to fix this problem within itself, and I'm entirely sure kleinbl00 is in contact with mk and thenewgreen as well as the rest of the admins with solutions to the problem.

Kind of side tracked there, but I figured it was worth it I guess. I respect kleinbl00 as well as how he contributes to Hubski, but a lot of people see him as some kind of deciding figure on the community despite being not a moderator. He has strong, supported opinions, but don't forget about all of the other great users on the site is I guess what I'm trying to say. He might be a warlord within internet arguments, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's always right, no matter what.
