For a long time I have believed that content is what will bring value to HIVE.

For as long as it has been said, it never has. The majority of people don't like the stiff upper lip approach. Instead of learning from the errors of your ways, you dig your heels in and create a way to further alienate people who don't write as good as others. You literally suck all the fun out of posting, having fun interacting, and drain hive of it's potential growth.
