The Town Hall on the new connect changes

[Marina R]

I'm listening to the town hall, as I'm guessing a lot of you are. 

The fact that we're not allowed a rebuttal to anything the speaker is saying makes the whole thing completely moot. 

The host responds with "Got it" every time she is done speaking, and she is never challenged on anything she says. He's reading off first level question and no followup questions are asked. 

This is not a town hall. This is just propaganda.

I guess if they allow freelancers to interact with them, we will have a lot of drama and fights , so it makes sense. They saw the feedback from freelancers in the community, and they know a lot of freelancers are against this.

Really? They don't trust us to have a civil conversation. We're not children. We should be allowed a rebuttal in a so called Town Hall. 

I've become so invested in this issue, even though charging for connects won't affect me personally. This is just kind of silly now.

The sound cut out for me, so for all I know they are promising puppies and bunnies to Freelancers who are Top Rated!

I hope so. Frankly, since I was never sent that mug, I feel I'm owed at least a bunny.

Marina R, why won't it affect you personally, if I may ask?

Also, why can't I figure out how to quote on this forum?
