I was in Phoenix the other day an run all the lil roads comin up to Portland yeserday so hadn't gotten back to anythin round here.

First thin I've gotta say is I know sumthins up, I know Lena has had a problem bout the rules wit the guys/gals thin an I know Deb said the staff was workin on it an the like, cause from what I understand, Lena has gotten bent out of shape an it looks like sqaut did to but I thought he was playin, my biggest questions go to Lena. Is everthin ok? Are you ok, has sumthin happened that you'd like any of us to stand wit you in prayer? Sarah tells me you haven't been on-line this weekend, why? I donno, but I hope everthin is ok. Now if I've done sumthin to upset anyone, I would always rather folks come up an tell me, I am not a mind readier an I cain't figure thins out, I normally fowl them up when I try an figure thins out, so I cain't fix anythin if I donno what's wrong.

Now alos, the other day I started a protest an I did it in play, an I waited til I caught a sucker, String, I was only playin, so if anyone thinks I wasn't please know I was only playin wit only postin in the mens area, I did it on purpose to hang some unsuspectin gal, an thanks to String she was my first victim hehe

My other really big question is, what's brought this on? I understand the rules, but we've always been close nit enough that it's never been a problem, this topic was rasied a year er so back an kinda died off by the way side I had thought. The biggest thin that sticks out to me, I've read many of the threads in the womens forum an I've always used my judgement, is it a light hearted thread where I can pick an poke on folks? Is it a serious issue that requires only womens involvment? The thin I'd like to know is, has there ever been a serious thread in either the womens er mens area that the opposite sex has ever come in an screwed up the thread er topic when it was sumthin serious er important etc? So far as I can tell (an ya'll can take that for what it's worth) I've not seen someone take a serious thread IN THE SEPCIFIC men's/womens area an tank it. It seems to me we're all adults an have not had a problem screwin up someone elses serious thread in mens er womens. It happens in other areas but we've always seemed to manage.

One thin I would hope wasn't happenin was a division between both men an women an staff an user. If we are a community, then let us be a community. If it's decided that men should only post wit men an women should only post wit women in those areas, so be it. The only thin I see happenin er is liable to happen is a segragation that I jes wouldn't want between any of us. Since I don't know everthin that's goin on an cain't see everthin I'm shootin in the dark here. But specifically, I think the reason of 'why' needs to be contended wit before anythin else. An if sumthins gone on er happened er the like then let us as a community help wit that if at all possible, at least let us pray wit whoever er whomever etc.

What a guy! :thumbsup:

I thought you'd been gone because you were mad!! B)

We'll be posting a thread that'll open this whole thing up for some discussion....FHL IS a community and the moderating team wants it to stay that way.

So, that thread will be an opportunity for us to propose a new idea (or a new take on an old idea, I guess) and for everyone to talk about it and come to some sort of agreement.

Howzzat sound??

Yah.. thanks to the break down in communication.. namely worthless good for nuthin CA an ther insanely stupid mountains an 55 mph state... took me 18 hours to git the 900 miles up here an I jes didn't have no service so couldn't do nuthin since I left phoenix, but I'm not mad, I am concerened but not mad. I would have had Sarah mention sumthin but hwo do you do that? Start a thread an say Louis is jes out of service right now? ya know? That an she's jes not really very good at adlib. I can tell er to say sumthin er nother an it winds up bein a 30 min discussion on how to start sayin whatever it was... go figure... englanders....
