I feel like Karmashares is the rich uncle who just died and most of the family is wasting time over why there was nothing in the will for them.

Indeed, we're wasting a tremendous amount of time focusing on things that aren't related to adding any value for Karma.

It was 7 days ago that I announced Karmashares was shutting down, 6 days ago I was essentially banned from participating in team chats and asked to remove myself as moderator of the KarmaTeam subreddit, and 5 days ago that I announced I will no longer lead Karma

But it would seem that I have learned 4 things over the past week

1) Karma has a great name

2) No one on the team is interested in keeping core services running (not even responding to the post)

3) We continue to 'volunteer' ourselves as a community, but there is very little actual productivity

4) Despite the many complaints about shutting down Karmashares there was not a single viable alternative offered

We've squandered a lot of the extra attention that we've received over the past couple of weeks arguing over insignificant details.

Out of these ashes a new community will arise, hopefully, of people who actually need Karma right now.
