It's not that we want to literally disallow users who just want to socialize; there's few who do. It's just that this is not the place for socializing like that. That is why there is "Facebook" and "Twitter". If you want to socialize, go there. If you want to contribute with a community solely based on what you love, then stay here. Simple. Whining like this is making the end result worse on you, and it's making you look iresponsible and immature. It is not going to get changed.
