    Debbie and Mad,

    I regret having read some posts by new members meaning "dont come here anymore" . Opinions have always been wellcome and rudeness would be treated personally as a non desired atittude by a moderator.
    Its upsetting that unpoliteness may compromise the good
    relationship we developed on the Board.

    Now that QB is just business, the original might soon be gone.
    My 5 cents.

    Since QB was sold I realize people who used to take strict care of it
    have been quiet. We just love to be here but with 27.553 members it IS a company business.
    That Gorilla made a good job and we miss his administration.
    Lets enjoy the board while it is not too bad. Yet.
    I think those of you who have been here since the get go, and some of us over a year, know what a great board it is and are giving it time to "heal". What company that is bought out doesn't have changes? I still think it's the best. That's a lot of people. GOsh.....

    Since everyone is putting their two cents worth in I will too. As I have said before we all need to have patience with the problems on the maintenance but what makes me sad is some make really snippy comments about other member's problems. Yes they are suppose to email the board but maybe they did and just were trying to double check to see if it was their computer having a problem. Patience should be shown both ways. I personally haven't noticed that much of a difference however I am sympathic to those who did. I too do not like to hear the complaining if it is not productive. We all need to be tolerant of each other and more kind words and less critical if others don't meet your expectations. If you don't like reading about the problems others are having then move on to the next subject, I did. What the world needs is more love and kindness, there certainly can never be too much.

    Thanks for speaking to just being patient! Although some act as though this board is a life or death thing and "wouldn't be tolerated for more than 24 hrs", it is not. We pay nothing to be a part of this community and pay nothing for the people who maintain it. I believe your plea for patients and discretion is very much in order! Thank you

    I think if the complainers were charged with administering a small family newsletter board they might be more sympathetic to those with over 27,000 family members. I'm just grateful someone will and, as someone said, "You managed to get on here to complain." Lighten up or, "If it hurts, don't do it."

    All I know is that 10 years ago, I would have to pay to get as much wonderful information and help that I have received on this site. And 20 years ago, I would have been on my own to wonder what I was doing wrong in any given 'quilting' situation...my grandmother passed away when I was younger and left me a beautiful handmade quilt, but not the knowledge of how to make it. Also, in today's age, 'slow' means something totally different than it did before the computer era. I am so GRATEFUL to this site, for I cannot afford classes, I wouldn't be able to meet so many other wonderful people who share an interest and are willing to give so much wonderful advice, and I have even learned a little bit more compassion and understanding. :)
