The above... they're seemingly busy establishing themselves in a community as an outstanding individual that once you disagree with them, they'll state whatever they want, in a way that's not becoming of their station at times.
This. Seriously, this. And to be honest that's also one thing why i do not apply for anything council- community- etc. related: some(many) people would disagree with me or my tone; i'm not the coolest-headed, always civil or the like, so i definitely should not speak for community, and so on. Seems that others handle this differently.

(IIRC It was even stated in the application of one council member that a certain communication channel in relation to Nokia / a 3rd party involved should expect a quite different tone once he is voted in)

But you have read it; there's not much interest in this thread / topic anyway so we "kids" should go screw ourself
And as this came from council members it's official; no other opinion allowed here.
