I have to disagree. You're disrespecting people's reasons for leaving SFWA and attempting to shame them. You've going even further, and making it worse, actually, as far as I'm concerned. And this has nothing to do with the excellent work that SFWA has accomplished, but it has been a systematic issue for years, and people have been ignored, with both public and private complaints. Is it any wonder that someone might want to leave and see if things improve before coming back? But instead you punish them further, with your judgement. I completely understand that you feel hurt, but taking it out on innocent (ex)members, well, that's going too far, and doesn't help the situation. Instead we should be working together to make sure this doesn't happen again, make it a safe work environment, and see if we can't convince people to come back.
