A favourite site

As I look upon the posts lately, I'm wondering if I should remove About Seniors from my favourite sites. I noticed this morning that Tom has once again raised his head! This time about reverse mortgages - pity he doesn't also join the discussion group. I've also gone into the Q&A;. Seems there are a whole lot of people - real or manufactured there, who have a whole lot of problems. I'm not really sure I want to be where there is so much vituperate comment. Might just leave it for a while, visit every now and then just to see if it has improved.

Hi Bev I noticed Tom had resurfaced and like you I wondered why he didn't reply to the people who were concerned about him

I wonder if SM... or the latest Dino A will appear or if they feel they have done enough damage.

I don't know where the questions and answers are so can't comment'

Do keep posting BevG, you are a lovely person and I would miss you. Lolih

The Q&A;'s are at the top of the page - they seem to cover a whole lot of the questions asked, and even the questions asked by those of us who do post. I did feel that this was a site where I could post a few simple things - not major issues. Just how I was feeling today - the things that had happened in my day - communicate with others of possibly my own age group. Maybe we don't need to be so simple these days, maybe it needs to be drama and problems, I guess I'm just a simple soul. Must admit I wonder about the admin - do they actually look and see what is being posted? So many hurtful things have been posted. Not really my style at all. Thank you for replying.

Hi again BevG, I had found theQ & A before but found it rather boring, but helpful where needed, thank you for telling me.



Why don't you start a General Discussion which is purely for what you want.- Maybe called "Coffee Break" or something, I am sure others would enjoy that too, I would , sometimes it is nice just to say hello to someone who will say Hello back.

I have wondered the same thing Bev...........not one bit of moderation at all from them........clay

Hello BevG, I too agree with you. I come on this site for Relaxation not to read rudeness & arguments. I have not posted much for a while except for the odd request for help. I enjoy things like Phyls story site & Fweds, What am I. In short it is fun not unsolveable problems & Politics I enjoy. The Coffee Break is a good idea & I would participate.

I would start it up only I am Visually impaired & sometimes am not capable of much. Bring it on & lets hope it works.

General Discussion is pretty good for diversity though.

Bev. you can write anything in General Discussions and we will see them.

.......................

You have more sanity than a lot of us my friend and one of the few of

us here now from the forum's inception.

When we see a heading we feel we will enjoy we will read and

when it is a Bev. post we cetainly do read.



Have you completely settled into your new home now?

Boxes unpacked I would think, but dosn't matter if not

maybe before Christmas this year would be near enough.



Still glad you and your girl moved?

All the best

Phyl.

Tweety is there anything we can all do to help with your vision re posts?



I am sure you are not the only one with a bit lower vision so let's know if we can do anything

which would help in any way. I am sure if we could we would.



Your posts are interesting Tweety please keep them coming my friend.

Have a lovely day

Phyl.

Answering Clay - there don't seem to be any moderators. The admin seems to just accept whatever is written. We have to be our own moderators. Answering Phyl now - I sometimes question my sanity, but I guess I'm not too much worse than most. Lolih, you are a person after my own heart. I come here too, for a bit of fun - the idea of a coffee shop is a good one. Maybe now, I don't have to abandon this site. Thanks everyone.

Thanks for that Phyl, I manage very well as I have a Magnified screen on my Comp. & most sites have a plus & Minus text button. Glad to see the Coffee Shop is up & running, I wish it well.

Beautiful day here in Qslnd,though very humid,been down the beach with my hubby & had a nice walk.Byeeee.



About this Site, well, I have a problem with the News letter & have e-mailed Admin twice to no avail,seems a bit uncaring.I will put it on Tech talk & maybe one of you brainy people can help me :coolsmile:
