Unless the other moderators have a problem with the way things are going in the event folders, I think we will keep the listings the way they are. Civil discussions/questions are encouraged both before and after the event. Individual attacks on events or the event organizers will not be tolerated. People are encouraged to point out negative aspects of any event, provided it is constructive and from an actual attendee of the event. One way of putting on better events is learning from those who have done so and are willing to share their experiences.
I hope you find these folders informative and useful.
