I used to, but I will admit you can do some pretty incredible stuff with Flash and Flex, so long as its not gratuitous. LOL!

If they'd open up their player and let people work on it that actually care and actually have skills things may change, but for now it's a burden, especially if you use Mac or Linux. Maybe if by default you could set things to be low-quality (ie, not run 100% CPU for no reason) it'd be different. Resource's not-so-flashy site is nicer, that's for sure. Anyone can make a site that's all flash, and in the same sense can make something that really, really sucks. If you can make a good site without flash you can do just about anything well.
