curious what the community thinks about this since its a sentiment i see pop up now and then my off the cuff take is that old/current nouns voters/members generally struggle to see new influential voters enter, its a power shift dynamic that is built into nouns but can feel uncertain and unpredictable* insofar nouns is a train that is both built and wrecked at the same time (h/t mikegood), the status quo feels 'safe' and 'steady' and in some ways its 'the mess we understand' i wont pretend im fully immune to the feeling of uncertainty, but i think ive learned to embrace it over the years. and i think you can make a case for this cyclical nature of nouns voters/power blocks being 'a very good thing' since it naturally combats stagnation which is a common poison for any org and, honestly, would probably kill nouns rather quickly were we to shut off auctions or otherwise ossify the voter base (note: not focused on or against mikegood, his comment is just what sparked the thought)

I know we talk about ⌐◨-◨ not being a co etc. but the path of hi spend dreamer builder -> transition to a more serious. Long term operators. The classic. VC /Founder. -> take public -> bring in new management (Most founders, give a long enough opportunity, would kill their company) New blood. New perspective. I think it’s all good. Have to tear muscle to build it.

@mikegood
so you think if nouns turns into lil nouns, with 1-2 large groups controlling everything that is done.. its "all good?" maybe.. but i feel like you basically rage quit lils because of this same thing a few times. So as long as Nouns is ready to lose folks who dont want to deal with mega-blocks.. than ya, i agree with you. 'You have to tear a muscle to build,' but what happens if you break your arm lifting weights? lol
