Actually, it reminds me of people thanking other members for help, surprise pkgs, advice, patterns, etc. Also, of comments re' good customer service at fabric stores and on-line. Of sharing interesting web sites. Pic's of our accomplishments and families and furballs. Of telling us about pretty new lines of fabric being introduced. I'm willing to bet most of the above mentioned can be found in the last wk's threads on this Board. Personally, I love this Board as it is, and hope it doesn't change.

There are plenty of thread where people give kudos to others, and the moderators work very hard to keep out the ones that are ultra negative. And it was good for froggyintexas to vent also. This is a wonderful site and I am very thankful to all that participate.

and this one..

and what about this one:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-155132-1.htm
There are 100's of good positive stories on this board. But then people only see what they want to see. Be postive yourself and you will see positive in others
Just a thought...

There are many generations on this board. and over the generations, acceptable terminology has changed time and time again. not always easy for everyone to keep up.
Let's try to assume the best?

I must not be reading what you are. I don't think I've seen that negativity but maybe I'm just not looking for it. I have a wonderful time where ever I go and if it doesn't kill me then the experience is either a learning one, a forgiving one and just a moment in time. This too shall pass is my motto!

I don't find a great deal of negativity here. But if we can't vent to our friends where do we vent? DH already gets enough of that. If no one ever complained I would think I was the only one having a bad day. If you don't like the complaints, don't read them. The nicest people on the web are on this board and this is the most friendly, supportive group I've ever been a part of.

Sometimes it helps to carp a little to people like us who understand and on many occasions have had a simular experience. It keeps peace at home, and usually DH doesn't know what you are talking about anyway. If it gets too heated, you can always move on.
