Please leave. All of you. The project is more important than your pride, and you are dragging it down; this situation is never going to improve unless someone walks away.
I understand the motivation for saying this, but I think you misunderstand the goals of the people attacking WP; they are not after individuals, they want the project as a whole to fail, or to come under their control in some way. If a dozen prominent Wikipedians leave, then the attackers will go after the next dozen, and so forth. Go and read some of the conspiracy stuff at WR; Jimbo's use of the term "lunatics" is not an exaggeration! Is that really who you want deciding what goes on at WP?
Appeasement is not going to work.
