    If you're a new member and don't see your posts appear immediately on the general Forum, here's why:

    Due to recent problems encountered with certain postings, the Administrator has found it necessary to put in place a system where new members' early posts will be reviewed and approved by the Moderators prior to appearing on the general forum. This does not apply to Premium members.

    Reviewing new posts can take up to 24 hours. Once cleared, they will appear on the Forum. Thanks for your patience!

    We certainly understand -- we all learned how one bad apple can sour the whole mix! :(

    Thank you!

    It won't catch all the poison, but it's a start.

    For myself, I'm making a vow to try to not get caught into the vortex of controversy and raise a red flag earlier.

    We've a fantastic forum and 99.9% safe (which is why I don't go to other forums anymore). I feel like I know each and everyone of the members here, at some level, on a personal basis....not just some anonymous poster. I'm committed to helping to keep it that way.

    Cheers!

    Thanks!

    Thanks to all for your support, and to Kelly for all the hard work she's done to ramp us up.

    As always, don't hesitate to PM or email us if you see something that you think is questionable. We need your watchful eyes too, and appreciate your help!

    Thanks so much for keeping this forum to the high standards I know it has and always will. Kelly, Ann and Shawn you do an awesome job keeping things as smooth as they can go. You hard work is greatly appreciated. This is also why I don't mind being a Premium member because I want this forum to be around for awhile. The people are genuine, helpful and just so caring. Thanks again !:wink2:
