I still have not filled out the survey. They also could have local gatherings at the local rock gym. Other climbers there could get interested and want to join

The thought was to do exactly that, though with more voices than my own. One person squawking is an annoyance, but when a group has something to say, there is a better chance of being heard. A thread spelling out observed deficiencies and wants would speak volumes as some on the members of the AAC staff also belong to SP...
Sure, but I doubt an AAC board or staff member is going to come to the website just to see what's being said.
So obviously, no discussion should take place, right?
I rather like that Cookie Addict has brought this topic up for discussion prior to potentially submitting some ideas.

And yes, it would be great to look at your beefs but offer some workable solutions! Trust me when I say it would be appreciated much more than folks just wailing about issues.
C ya. I'm done here.
