i think it is a good idea for people to act maturely on forums
otherwise we stop communicating and start screammunicating.

and that's probably the best reason for staying.
i think different people have different 'visions' for freebsd and are
passionately attached to their own. as long as they express their
viewpoint maturely in accordance with proper forum etiquette there is
room for the variety of visions.
i think you, for instance, have just done so in this concerned and
detailed post (that may be the second best reason for not leaving).
you've addressed specific matters regarding the image of freebsd.
whether others agree or disagree with you is not relevant so long as
they
1) express themselves maturely
2) justify their viewpoint rationally
