I'm one of the guilty, I suppose, since I just got here right about the same time this site went to pot. Sorry I screwed it up for you- really. This is a really cool place and I would be upset, too, if it were taken away from me.
But I deal with this every day. I work in local government. Every week I hear citizens complaining about the growth in our City (#3 in the country- #1 best place to live). After hearing them vent, I'll ask the group "how many of you were born here?" Often times, its just me with my hand up. The point is, were all new to this site at one point or another. There is a culture here that is alive and dynamic. New people will come, old beloved friends will go, the student will become the teacher, and we support one another and our common bonds, while gently pooping in the shoes of our rivals.
Stick around, man, and contribute. You cannot affect that which you do not participate in.
Cheers~
