Contemplating to leave for good...

You have to do what is right for you ...

I have noticed that things are getting very quiet around here, and many people seem to have left or are visiting less often.

I hope things go well with you, whatever you choose to do.

Viele Grüsse nach Deutschland!

We do seem to be losing more and more of the members whos posts I enjoy here.. probably why I keep coming less and less myself. But hey, we've all got to do what we feel is best.

Good luck with your situation, tocis.

Just so you know... should I suddenly disappear, it's probably not that disaster struck or something. But if you get the feeling that remaining here doesn't make much sense anymore, it's time to rethink your options and decisions...

Hi. That is of course your decision but may I ask if there are other boards or forums you post on and how they differ to the one here? Thanks.

Psalm 69:10 When I wept [and chastened] my soul with fasting, That became my reproach. 11 I also made sackcloth my garment; I became a byword to them. 12 Those who sit in the gate speak against me, And I [am] the song of the drunkards. 13 But as for me, my prayer [is] to You, O LORD, [in] the acceptable time; O God, in the multitude of Your mercy, Hear me in the truth of Your salvation.

I think we all need a breather once in a while.
This forum is losing ‘good’ members and I cannot say a word about it.
I am also slowly fading away.
If you have meet some friends, collect their IMs and take a vacation from forums.

...nothing definitive yet, but...

...it seems to me currently that my understanding of the rules of this place grows more and more different from that of the mods and admins. Maybe it's just me, maybe it's... I don't know what (and I'm not trying to assign any guilt to anyone here!). I'm currently waiting for an explanation from one of the mods, the reply may well decide how I'll go on from here.
If it seems like irreconcilable difference are building up, chances are that I will leave of my own accord instead of risking to eventually be banned.

Hi. I understand where you are coming from. I "cringe" with fear of receiving a warning for any post I put up lately.

It seems with so many religions, non-religions, denominations/sects within religions, it is almost inevetible that someone is going to take a post in the wrong light.
I will probably disappear soon myself as a lot of what is discussed in the forums and boards appear to just go in a circles.

It may be just me though, as I do love the LORD and His Book, the Bible, though I do admit I sometimes may get a little over "zealous" in debates, but I do attept to try and respect others views, beliefs and personalities, as they are as varied as the "stars in the heavens". LOL.

Whatever happens, may Peace and Joy follow you.

Hebrew 11:8 By faith Abraham, being called, did obey, to go forth to the place that he was about to receive for an inheritance, and he went forth, not knowing whither he doth go; 9 by faith he did sojourn in the land of the promise as a strange country, in tabernacles having dwelt with Isaac and Jacob, fellow-heirs of the same promise, 10 for he was looking for the city having the foundations, whose artificer and constructor [is] God. 11 By faith also Sarah herself did receive power to conceive seed, and she bare after the time of life, seeing she did judge Him faithful who did promise; 12 wherefore, also from one were begotten--and that of one who had become dead--as the stars of the heaven in multitude, and as sand that [is] by the sea-shore--the innumerable.

If it helps the straw is also extremely thin for me.

It isn't you guys but the mods and seemingly their moods. I've never changed, always been nice to everyone and think of others before I post. This used to work, being a nice person but the place itself is changed due to thin skins and people palying cop
nothing is fun here anymore
I can't even talk to friends in posts anymore
I didn't use to log on and have a post or 2 or 3 deleted everyday or the non ending boring questions I must answer in PM.(not that many Mods will answer back if you are right or just switch to robot mode on you)
it wasn't like this when I signed up and going back over all my posts I see Im acting no different
face it, it seems the majority of the board is sick of it
most of the people I liked or banned or quit anyways and I don't remember the last post I made
personally I couldn't care, really it's a message board so don't let it bother you lol
there will always be there types and I'll never suffer them or hang out with them
that said, Im outa this regime
mods, pick whatever offends you most and consider it written here "___________________"
A fookin Men!
