sgallan Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I guess this board is in "edit and moderate everything" mode. I guess there were too many players and opinions. Something the long time regulars have always freaked out about. They rather like a slow board with the regular "dance like" posts and posters. Heck even a TBM was chased off in Syble. I don't get it, as the site even advertises me with spam like e-mails from time to time. Why? If they are not really interested? I never stay away for always.... but I had become a regular poster again, and that hadn't happened here in awhile. I actually liked the place. Anyhow, it was an interesting board for awhile, but if I spend time on serious and heartfelt posts, that in the case I am thinking about were not offensive in any way I can think of, and they are taken down, then there is no point in posting or staying. I guess Unorthodox was right. So for those of you who know me, and are interested in keeping up...... email me, I am real good about answering. Take care.

Take care.Hey sgallan, I consider myself one of those long time regulars and I don't freak out. :)My analysis of the sometimes sensitivity of this board is that it comes and goes. At the moment there seems to be just a couple of overly sensitive posters. I find that a little patience comes in handy because I usually have more patience than the overly sensitive type. Check back every so often, chances are some old regulars will still be here and some newbie posters too while others will be gone.This board has been here for years, it's been renovated a few times, posters come and go, discussions sometimes come to a stop and other times the atmosphere is quite vibrant. It's just the natural process of 'board' life.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winnie G Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 sgallan I have been here for years, and I have been ridiculed by the best. I have been made fun of due to my spelling and out side looks at my own country and politics. I been told my opinion does not count and so on. At times I skipped out and go else’s were but I come back because I know the true spirit of the managers of this board have their hand full and in all what others say don’t count in the long run. I know I am allowed my opinion whether those around me would like to hold me down by my neck with their Bush polished boots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the old LDS board before it closed approx. 5 yrs ago, so I remember people like Ben, Josie, Palerider, Pam, and Mondo...amongst others. What I've learned from the internet is to stand up for myself when people attack...with their Clinton-polished boots! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pushka Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Scott, I hope that you can change your mind, and at least revisit the site from time to time...same with Unorthodox! I love the diversity of opinion on here, and must admit to having a giggle at the arguing sometimes!! People!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
