I really, really appreciate this tidbit, and how these publishing standards create space for us to discuss the diversity of experience and perspectives that is so important to share.

I guess I just want to say thanks for making quality rules and sticking with them. Following them may at times require extra work and attention, but having a safe place to discuss these things is priceless.
Thanks for the time the staff takes to help us when we need to polish things up a bit.
And thanks to all of you over the years who took the advice, kept posting, got better, and have consequently left so many stellar examples for the rest of us of what makes a great permies.com discussion.

Edited to add a missing word.

I spend a couple days with low internet, making apple juice and apple rings, and trying to figure out what to do with this years harvest, and come back to permies to see we had some excitement.  Although most of it was removed so fast it wasn't visible.  

Apple processing is fun but it chews up a lot of apples.  It reminds me of the apple press here on permies.
