I agree that it’s useful to make this more visible here, thank you!
[Flagging that I only know my own very limited perspective, and I don’t expect that Lincoln has done anything wrong, it’s just that I don’t see much from where I’m sitting] I found that statement a bit confusing, because as a person who works at CEA, I barely knew that Lincoln was on the EV board, and I have never heard about him interacting with anyone at CEA (though it seems likely that he has done this and I just don’t know about it). I feel like this is complicated because I don’t know what the best practices are wrt how involved a board member should be in the details of the organization; I could imagine there might be good reason for board members not to be reaching out to individual employees and pushing their pet causes. But he specifically said he was “worried about the EA Forum” in his comment, and yet I do not know what any of his views on the Forum are, and I have never heard of him sharing any of his views on the Forum with anyone on the CEA Online Team. So I am left feeling pretty confused. I’ll just say that I have directly reached out and offered to talk with him, because as you can imagine, I am very interested in understanding what his concerns are.
