I probably lean support, however I am still fairly new here. Not only do I not know people well, I don't know all of the layers of management/responsibility.

As to sado, I am not swayed by him. I tend to read the forums, even when I am not actively commenting on a thread. Sado, in anon guise, had been way over the line. PP's response was inappropriate, but there also seemed to be a bit of a misunderstanding. PP was called on her statement by other users, which contradicts sado claims of cult mentality. Sado, to me, seems to be some long term user who turned bitter at some point. So, I am willing to hold his charges against her.

What is actually making me pause, and withhold support, is who the other neutrals are. Several other mods and admins have stated reasons for being cautious. To me, they seem to be the ones in the better position to gauge when a position needs to be filled.

The thread will be open for long enough that I may read an argument that sways me to either side. As much as anything, I want to ease into formal participation on site matters.
