Stop being so negative.
You can post your concerns here, in detail. The community will discuss them, and the rules will be amended so we can all meet half way on something we can all somewhat agree on.

That's what I'm doing. Unfortunately, instead of being constructive as you assume they will, some people are just telling me to stop being "negative".
