I hope the OP’s (and therefore also my) question itself isn’t being taken as some kind of attack on Inkshares because it’s truly not - and I’m sure Adam (as a lawyer himself) and the Inkshares staff, when they get back from the weekend, won’t take it that way. 

Asking a question about a change to the legal terms to which we have agreed to abide should we reach our funding goal is not putting money above all else, or being ungrateful for all the other benefits of the contract and the site, or even being ’disgruntled’.  It’s just a question about the one clause that was changed. Had another clause changed, questions about that would be fair enough, too.  

It may not feel friendly or warm (like the rest of this lovely site) but it is our duty to take the legal contracts on this site seriously and do our due diligence and there is a level of transparency due us so that we can do that. Many of us thought we had done that due diligence when we joined only a few days ago and now the terms have changed, in a way anyone would consider material, and many of us did not get any notice, so of course there are questions. But they’re not offensive questions, or even heated ones - just practical ones. 

Inkshares have built a lovely community here - I’m enjoying it more and more every day - and usually that reflects the people who run a site, so I’m sure that when the weekend is over, the Inkshares staff will respond and put it all to rest  :)
