You know? I have seen pain, misery, heartache, true, true, great comradery. In the two forums I spend my time in.
Yesterday, I saw a lady and she is lady begin a thread in the Internationals, about forums, the other forums. Purely out of curiosity and her natural effervescent way of posting as she does. That very lady came here to try us out, despite the slagging off the EU forums and I say the EU forums, when in fact it is the people that were slagged off, which is clear, Tainogirl came and posted and it was a delight to have the pleasure of her company.
I have never seen such nastiness in my 18 months here, displayed here today. Jealousy, wild accusations about 'banned members' who are 'trying to fit' in, threads that are three months old, that was an enjoyable thread, while it lasted, raised in the very thread I discuss, that it was not takne seriously, when there were seven pages of discussion around the topic.
You are absolutely correct in all you say, Ginger, from my perspective.
We don't need it, we don't want it. We don't deserve it.
I hope that the people who have this issue with the people in the EU forums, have now had their fun, they may feel they have made their point, I for one will never see it, still, we the people now know what they feel.
I think it is time to return to what we enjoy doing now, don't you?
Vinny is not a 'newbie' I never describe people as newbies. I hate that term, like I would not describe myself as an oldie. We are all members.
I think you will find Andy, that as in the past, there have been less than a handful who have kept this place going, that many people are protective of the people in here.
If you find my phrase bad, then that is up to you. I cannot own your feelings.
I think in this thread, opened by Vinny, he was treated with care, courtesy and respect by all people who responded.
You have not responsded directly to my questions, therefore I am assuming you neither have the time or the inclination. I do not see that as rude at all, or that I am being ignored, I see that as your perogative.
Did Vinny understand? Read the whole thread and look for yourself, if you have the time, if you don't then you need to ask him. Not me.
The regulars 'monopolise' the forums? Should the regulars not post any longer, to make way for other members? Is this what you would prefer?
Isn't there any longer a right to choose who we as members respond to?
I am not responded to sometimes, but I don't feel that people should respond to me. I don't flatter myself with expecting people to respond to me. If they do, they do, if they don't then they don't. It never troubles me.
Also, as a note, what about people who have to run and do not have the time to respond directly? Should we announce that we do not have time to respond and we will later?
And why cannot people be protective over their little space? Doesn't mean that people are not welcome.
And yes, Vinny, you and all people are welcome, it is a public forum and belongs to CS. We have the priviledge to post, all of us.

RE: It’s a good feeling to miss someone
I got it right the first time. It is beautiful. And you are right, it does feel good to miss a person.I do it all the time and I feel good.
