Hi Austin, My wording was carefully chosen, but probably not obvious enough. I used "working practices on lists", I was not actually referring to *this* list where working practices are now, in my opinion, better than many others.
In fact, it would be great if you could spend time on the meta page previously linked, suggesting what good practices you use here that might help run other lists in a more mellow fashion.
