What exactly constitutes a viable post?

[Chaitai]

as far as i am concerned, just ur precious avatar and screen name, and having an idea of whom u are, are good enuff for us.

of course to obtain the 150 posts, as a member, u can contribute in many ways. scientific data. things u have seen or experienced in this world.

and then because many people need humorous smilies or word games cuz we want to stop thinking so intently all the time, adding music or wee games are equally impt to those of us whom are homebound and alone mostly, because we have a place to come. relax. and not worry about illnesses and LEO statistics. Just some peace for a bit.

So, having ur company is cool. a game is cool. ur wisdom is cool. If u see someone in need, PM me and i can counsel them or get to the heart of the matter.

Technically u owe absolutely nothing to the group. But, when we feel safe enuff to share, and we know most of this forum "Gets It" its gonna be nice to see what u think or feel. U never know what words u felt compelled to share, will make a major difference in anothers life.

The Best thing to do for us as a group to contribute? Ok, follow rules, but just care. Because behind every post we see is someone's suffering or joy or fear, and a nice comment in the rating to their post helps. Sometimes a quick PM helps.

The one duty is to show respect, help where u can, and be honest.

And, to date, u have exhibited all the qualities already.

Some people Had entire areas about emotional pain, physical pain or such. Some put up music they know will pick up the spirits of another.

But mostly, be you. Giving of yourself in a rating or such, is enuff. Those of us whom began this place could not tolerate the lying beasts of some vendors. And at last ioplist, before fifty of us were banned at once, well we had to provide truth to the people. Esp the newer people cuz many go after them.


You are family. As life changes in this world, comments are good. But just be you.

I am a fine example and completely agree completely, aside from read material, knowing I am not alone with my issues/problems, etc. Gives me amazing hope. Ever since I became a member my outlook on life has changed, I have become more independent, I also was able to start my own life, and not have it revolving around others, and finally once again I was able to get away from all of the lies, and greed.
even your post gave me more insight into: what I should or should not be saying, so just know that every little thing you do - does make a difference.
Just like a rock being tossed into water, creating ripples.
