That's great! So glad for you and your Mom!

~*deep breath before getting into Budo's thoughts, has to consider an answer to that*~

LOL

That long postbofbyourscwas opinion , no bproof.
That guy has an opinion, OK, does he back it up?

~*reads over your comments as well and thinks it well put out there and has much validity*~

"I have been here a long time, I have seen the harassment, have been through some seriously traumatizing harassment, but it never stopped me from coming back to play eventually. I agree that has been, is currently, and will always be a problem. because human nature seems to be less kind than some of us wish. I feel as players it is our job to nurture new players, help teach them should they want to be taught and if we can not palate them if they do not wish to learn then we have the ignore button. I can not say I have not harrassed someone, I mean I never set out to do that sort of thing, I try very very hard to be patient with folks. But we are all the hero in our own stories, and maybe I don't see what I"m doing. SO, if I have ever come off in that way to anyone I am very sorry. I do not mean to be, and I seek knowledge, even about myself...please be gentle however, self realization is difficult for some"

~*laughs a bit*~

"I have pointed out to others who have been bullying toward me or others that I play with and it is usually met with the thought that they are not in the wrong, that they are doing the "good fight" or what is "best for the site". It always seems to boil down to these folks are often thinking/believing that they are making the site better by getting rid of 'those kinds of players'. I remember once when i was very.............very .........new to gor, I served a man I knew from bwr. He asked for something that would not exist on gor. I don't know if he knew that or not. HOWEVER, it had been drilled into me that the Man was alwasy right and you didn't question you jjust did it. So I did the bestest serve my little newby heart could and I was bashed in whispers, in the room, and the male that may have come back to be an awesome writer and a great addition to our world, scooped me up and took me out of the room and back to bwr where he felt we were safe. he never came back to gor for as long as we knew one another. because that first taste had been so bitter."

~*blinks*~

"sorry got off topic kinda. I do agree that fewer rooms won't fix it, but with the few amount of people we have...it can't hurt mcuh more than no people and more rooms is doing. "

Cork power is real.
So glad to hear good news.

My room? Not in shsrpark.

Where can I find this proof you speak of?

I read the first line, had to react, then went back for the rest

Until you get your eyes fixed it's hard to explain how different things are. I wore glasses from age 5 until this May. It is an adventure now, to see things that I actually never saw my whole life. Places down at the creek, things in the woods, birds, leaves far away on trees. She now can see the world in a way she never could. Take her for the drive, there is a lot of new stuff for her to see FOR THE FIRST TIME, all over again.

Sorry, believe my comment was misconstrued.
Will be civil.

Do you know how to flip,over every sheet in a pile of paper 3 feet high, lining them up so the flip side could be printed in register. I do.

Lol ya cant try and baffle me with your biggy cluttering important sounding words. Proof right there posted in big article in your room
Why am i not shocked you only read 1 line in my posts?
Possibly because you know im correct on this topic??😄🙂😀☺😆

~*wanders back in here and chuckles at Cuchulainn, wishin I had seen this sooner*~

"way back in the day, this was a discussion room, where you would post and then wait here and talk to others about your answers, or their answers and have a discourse. I am sorry that I have been just drop and run with my answers.
I would like to say to Mr. Cuchulainn that yes, my answer about men drawing men is completely gorean and completely Gor. None of that goes against what I said. If Men don't play women won't come."

~*blinks, coughs and keeps goin forward*~

"as for couples play and family play. I didn't mean to imply that the couples are being openly hostile or unwelcoming to new players. They often aren't even given the opportunity to be welcoming or unwelcoming because people see them on the hotlist or on the see all and don't bother going in because it's been the same couple doing their thing and for whatever reason people don't go in. I did not mean to imply you shouldn't have couples play cuz I absolutely didn't mean that. You play what feels right for you to play. ENJOY your play, it is yours and no one should dictate to you that you shouldn't. There is simply a perception of unwanted addition that is the problem. Not sure how to fix that other than keep inviting men to come play to grow the group and lure in the women."

~*laughs cuz keeps hearing Admiral Ackbar*~

"there are so many reasons that Gor is empty, and it isn't just here in jag, it is internet wide. The fan base is getting older and there isn't as much interest in the "outdated" thinking, and the political climate of the world in general doesn't really have a huge space for Gor. there's always been a distance from Gor and "normal" BDSM. and the younger folks aren't really playing on line as much as they once were. Gotta start luring them in or gor will eventually die off..."

~*shrugs and leaves a couple more pennies of her jumbled thoughts*~

Smarter, not harder, that IS certainly the way I work, in the shop the guys would watch to see how I did things. Better, not cheaper is another of my axioms. What you call Busywork is making it better.
