    Not sure what you mean by this. But I do feel the board is as good as ALL of the members make it, not just one person. As I said, I love reading the threads. You all...keep up the good work.

    Thats why we are here! Litacats, did you get the tale of the war, when the Major asked Send reinforcements, we're going to advance, and by the time it got to HQ, the message was Send four and sixpence, we're going to a dance?? :lol:
    LOL :lol: that's funny.

    I don't think they are locking out a person as much they are locking the message to let it die so it doesn't just keep going.

    that's it exactly! :thumbup:

    we've had a rash of ranting and raving again lately. that's very bad for the board so we're going to lock them from now on.

    there's nothing wrong with posting a legitimate, factual, substantiated consumer alert of general use and interest when it's presented calmly and logically.

    if you need constructive advice about how to solve a problem, it's ok to ask.

    suggesting mature, fair and realistic ways to solve a problem is good.

    just throwing a hissy fit for its own sake ... not a wise choice. you may as well stand nekkid in the mall. the results are the same. ;-)

    As much as we all would like to spend time every day here, sometimes life happens! I know we miss them when they aren't here!! :D :D
    Tell me about it!! For the last 3 days I've promised myself to get back to the quilts. But here I still am. I am now going to try not starting my laptop till evenings. :roll:

    Patrice ,,

    the bottom line remains the same, though. as long as you know you have done nothing with the obvious and deliberate intent of causing trouble, you have nothing to worry about. which means that 99.99% of everybody reading this has nothing to worry about.

    chillaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax.

    Well, my post just went away. I guess it is illegal to ask about certain past members.
