The people skills comment wasn't meant to be offensive. Just an assessment, based on years of experience. Our group as a whole needs to accept and address our shortcomings if we expect to grow the hobby. In my experience I've seen a lot of shortcomings at the club level. I know of some local clubs in my area where one has a waiting list and the other has it's membership down > 25%. What's the difference? Networking and recruiting efforts by the membership.
It's unfortunate some feel the need to start every day on a sour note.
