I too would like to believe that friendly atmosphere you speak of will not disappear. However, so far we are moving in a negative direction. Unfortunately your 1 story does not withstand a collision with reality, it worked a year and a half ago, but not now (only my opinion).

Today you can be rude here and don't even show respect to other users by creating quality content, and don't show a reasonable courtesy and good manners, not to mention the friendliness. If you have contributed a fairly good amount to your account here, as your hypothetical businessman, other users will still strive for you, hoping to get a fat vote, not paying attention to your manners.

it seems more important to me the fact of communication between users. Indifference to the content, to the thoughts and stories shared by the users and only a blind vote deals this place even more damage than rude and unfriendly. Lack of dialogue is worse than quarrels.
