Why on earth are people being locked out for expressing their opinions? People who have been members since inception of this site and avid aupporters. I am hurt and disappointed.

Blessed Be!

I've been a little distracted these past few days, but did I miss something? I'm not sure I understand what you mean....

I've learned that it takes as much time and energy to wish as it does to plan.

Since the inception of our forum, I’ve blocked probably half a dozen people. This is unfortunately necessary in the world of online forums in order to keep a chatroom from becoming divided and negative. Libbie, myself, MaryJane, Meggie, and others work very hard on a daily basis trying to keep our forum positive and upbeat. No matter how patient we are, some people just have negative stuff along with blameful personalities. Their posts and cryptic remarks affect everyone. We take our job seriously and sometimes we have to administer some tough love in order to protect everyone else. The nature of our two most recent blocks has to do with one poster who posted critical, negative personal comments about MJ, eventually saying she no longer wanted to participate in the forum; and the other has a history of being not only divisive online but slanderous and inflamatory behind the scenes as far back as three years ago. The fact that you even know about the blocks proves that. In the future, you are welcome to refer/forward those e-mails to me.

Keeping it positive!
