The bottom line is, Angelo and the current deviantART administration is able to neither address this community's needs nor allay its qualms - and they apparently don't want to, either. It has lost twelve staff members, including Scott, in a matter of six days time. 14% of the staff left immediately because of Scott, and I believe that as the truth becomes even more clear, there will be a few more resignations.

The bottom line is, the administration doesn't care about us.

Richard ($lolly) says the staff is "strong and united". You've got to be kidding me Rich. Losing 14% of any staff is a huge loss in the space of six days, especially when you consider the mass number of staff that have resigned in expectation of this during the past year.

Look at the rest of the staff, especially those explicitly hired by Angelo. What have 85% of them done? Anything? There is virtually no community involvement from any of the Core Administrators other than $lolly, and now only at a muted level. Angelo fired the head of Community development and then posts his recent journal commanding us to show community love? Come on Angelo. Are you a part of this community? We are showing the love - just not to you. Our message to you has been loud and clear; you've still got your earplugs in.

Look at the "Creative Staff" listed in my shoutboard. Other than ¢starvingartist, who designed v2 (though it should be noted, has done absolutely nothing while on staff) have any of this creative group shown any results let alone productivity? Mostly every member of the staff appointed by Angelo, especially those working at "deviantART HQ" have very dubious job titles; we can only hope they're getting paid for doing anything, because Angelo has kept all business matters secret, despite his claim that the administration "don't keep secrets".

Who is Angelo hiring on our subscriptions? What's going on at deviantART Headquarters? Why won't Angelo give us answers to our questions?

The bottom line is, the administration doesn't care, and they've said so clearly in their silence. Angelo has not only slapped Scott in the face, but now he's said we're meaningless fools who will forget what he did.

Angelo has lied to us. "[P]lease send me any questions at all you have about this aspect of deviantART, and I will be glad to answer them: we don't keep secrets.

Then open your mouth and speak, Angelo.

Update 1: As °euphoria has said, `twosilverstars has just resigned.
