    Re: Wow

    I wish everyone would take a break from this. Your opinions on the matter are now public record and DO matter. Please let Tom come back from his Labor Day gathering and respond. It is his forum.

    You know, I started the Geek Forum back in December. It is not diet related but so far we've had some fun sharing ideas and educating members on their computer issues. I think a Lesson forum has some merit. Personally, I won't join the Poker room because I have no desire to learn Texas Fold 'em - although I should because my youngest daughter beat me pretty handily when the family played while on vacation this summer.

      Perry, I would take a break from this. Except. I was dismisssed. And apparently my opinions dont' matter. Tom was here earlier. He chose to write me off. It is his forum, I respect that. However i chose to support this board, and as such I expect to be heard.
      Being dismissed to another forum where my posts have no relative meaning is insulting. And I am insulted. I had valid questions and objections and was simply relegated to "chat". That is wrong.

        Well can you teach something ...
        Can anyone ... lets start up something different.

        For me I like games. I can teach chess too maybe later on I will put it up there. Anyone have other things they would like to teach?

        How about home repairs? Has anyone done some things around the house that they can teach others to do?

        How about any of the following:

        Web site design
        Home repairs
        Knitting ( although it is addictive )
        Arts and Crafts
        Languages ( Spanish , French, German, Japanese )
        Math ( How to keep up with your childs math class )
        Legal issues ( How to write your own will, what to look for on contracts )
        Other games :
        Chess
        Backgammon
        Bridge
        Crossword Puzzles

        Travel ( How to look for bargains )
        Coupon cutting and refunds ( How to save $$$ when shopping )
        The educational system ( How to get more involved with your childs education )
        Maternity, child rearing etc ... My wife read like 20 books on this stuff I am sure there is tons of knowledge on this board )

        Whatever else.
        All we would want is some sort of commitment from someone to at least post 10 - 20 lessons on the subject over time.

        But if we DO need a lessons forum, why poker to start with? That doesn't give ANYONE a taste of "what is to come", if "what is to come" is about auto repair and bulb-planting.

        And I agree about the gambling addiction issue.

        I'm becoming just a tad concerned about what is going on around here. Moving threads from forums to the chit-chat area, setting up poker lessons, having weight-watchers discussions, and asking people to pay for boot camp.

        I have been a mod before on this board, and I do not ever recall these types of decisions being made without checking the pulses of the other members.

                        Sorry Barde, I didn't mean to highjack your thread. I am in agreement. For the powers that be to just move posts without telling the owner, banning folks with out sending them a note to tell them why is just rude.

                            OK. Now I'm going to shut down this thread.

                            We've gone from fighting, to being nice to fighting again. Sure, we had laughs, with the wind-breaking incident... Still, it's like I went to a hockey match and a poker fight broke out.

                            Remember the jist of the discussion as being pertinent, with both sides making outstanding points on the subject, and let's move on.

                            Emotions are high right now with Katrina, Labor Day weekend, and I know I missed the latest new episode of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and that made me a wee might cranky.
