Charles KrielCommunities needs diversity in order to thrive and grow. But if an 12-year-old and a 65-year-old are trying to have a conversation with one another, not knowing how old the other is, having no context of whatsoever. The 12-year-old will react like a 12-year-old does and the other person will react like 65-year-old does because there are not enough gestures there. With twenty people in a room you can modify your behavior and that is part of how communities work but that doesn’t happen in online forums. There are just not enough ways to project the complete person I am to you. Neither for me, nor for you, nor for the community.” - Charles Kriel, artist, producer, DVJ
