Did it motivate you to contribute to D? Did you write a DIP for
class private?
How exactly did Dennis motivate you to help D? You seem motivated
to post in the forum but little else.

You like Dennis because he gave you what you wanted. It doesn't
take a psychology degree to understand that.
And why put 'community' in quotes? That makes it seem derisive or
sarcastic? Is that your intent? Because it's a naive thing to do
if you want people to listen to you.

Why should anyone do what you say? You're nobody, just a random
lurker in the forum like me. I don't expect anyone to listen to
me let alone do what I say.
The people doing the work can do what they want, organize
themselves how they want. It's mind blowing to me that you see a
bunch of people working on something and you expect them to just
do what you think. Like you are so enlightened that everyone
should listen to you.
Just to be clear I have nothing to do with D officialy.

Why would you get a vote?
