Having been here a while, I can say that we've apparently lost site of the roots of the community that originated on the subreddit, and while I don't see a way to reverse this decline, I think it's at least worth talking about.
Essentially the level and tenor of the discourse has altered dramatically; I've gone ahead and listed out the type and style of the high quality content we saw back on the day on the upper half of this diagram, and done what I could to contrast it with the sort of typical content and user type we see now. I think any objective observer will agree this is a downgrade.
Most of the users alluded to do not exist, which is to say, they do not yet exist temporally, but may be concluded to exist atemporally by the necessity of their future existence. That is to say, you're too extant to bear mentioning, despite your storied place in the Lower Aeon Pantheon.
