Impermanence
The saying goes "The only thing that never changes is that everything changes." And so it goes in the online world as well.
Last night, I withdrew my membership at the Garden of Ithilien Writers' Workshop over my disagreement with the way the admin there handled an issue. I won't go into the blow-by-blows, but the upshot of it is that I walked away from a group with whom I have felt more online kinship than I've enjoyed in a long time.
Standing up for principles hurts, folks. It's necessary, but it hurts like hell.

Standing on principles sucks big time. But NOT doing it is not an option, at least for some. *hugs*
