I think of this as the customer satisfaction continuum where Satisfaction = I like you. Loyalty = I Love you. Affinity = I defend you. I think great communities have all 3 of these populations with frequent intrusions by those who "don't know you." Just a thought.

I think that it is too bad that there are <i>more and more</i> fantastic programs for people to use these days. It just seems like after a while the multitude of choices dilutes the purpose-interaction.
