I subscribed to KP over 7 years ago. Initially it was a great place to pick up new knitting techniques, chat with virtual friends and share finished masterpieces. The site was well moderated and the majority of subscribers were pleasant. Unfortunately a perfect storm hit this site — it was sold to people who don't care about moderating and a group of nasty, disrespectful bullies took over nearly every conversation. So—is this worth your time? Maybe, if you are willing to sift through political tirades, reposts of political articles, and mounds of conspiracy theories. Almost any thread on any topic can start a firestorm or personal attacks if the bullies fly in. Sadly, this just isn't why I read crafting sites so I only check in on the mayhem every 3 months or so. Bottom line, if you have extra thick skin or you like tangling with argumentative people who sometimes craft…go for it. It was interesting to note that the 4 or 5 positive reviews on this site were written Aug 13,14, or 15. Hmmm…. Wonder what conspiracy prompted that group effort? Hahaha
