We'll you know....It's the internet!!! LOL, Just Kidding!
I agree with you 100%. You have to know when to be serious and when it is time to play.

NOW I'm upset folks, Michael's on the phone and he's just called me one ugly B***h when he saw my inner beauty

<============ He's says the wedding's off and to forget what he said about lokks not being important

I think ALOT of people on here may view SOMEONES
post as BAD so THEY didn't like it BUT then the next person to look see's that its been put up for deletion and JUST JUMPS on the band wagon W?O really READING the post....

And as far as TOPIC of a post,,the POSTER has there JOB to do to MAINTAIN there direction to how and WHERE thEIR post goes in
conversation,,,and MANY start one then LEAVE it, so no one is really watching its direction...

This is what I have seen, But I am sorry about your deletion MG and You are right as to GOOD and FUN,,,and PLAY and who cares???

try shaving the facial hair Bonnie then he will see your shining beauty come through............

its' hard to keep myself serious
even when i start a thread that for me is serious
when people i know come along, and start being playful.
shame on me.

Snuggles, that hair keeps me warm, I am sooooo attached to it
Walker, you a thread high jacker too, we are so going to get into trouble

I would like to add a train of thought..and I know the old'If you don't like it, don't go there' comes into play.

Life is serious most times...people's lives are filled with major stressors...with or without their professions coming into it.

I know may paramedics, doctors, nurses, fireys, emergency trauma workers, counsellors, people who work in humanities, that have such intense jobs.

When they come home, they dont want to watch nasty traumatic stuff on tv, they dont want to think about it for an hour or two..they want to blow off steam..and have a laugh...

and if they do see it, in their time off..will often try to lighten the atmosphere, with a one liner, a joke, a silly comment...to break the tension.

We are all expected to follow forum rules, as guests here on this site...but the whole site in it's entirety is owned by two people...if 'Stay on topic' was to be mandatory, it would be included in the forum rules..

I think the first mandate of furum rules is be respectful... says it all, in any post anyone makes.

Very TRUE Jess, but also would THAT respect mean to SEE or say hello to the ones who speak?
I have seen many new pps say something in a thread and get over looked, then they get withdrawn and lose interest in posting?
But no forum rules state that we have to say HI to EVERYONE who makes a reply to a post..
But hell, Respect is always what we ALL would like to have, but DON'T get much of it?

Terry, you show it, you give it, you get it, from those that recognise it. (Aretha Franklin..sing it...R..E..S..P..E..C..T)

I think the basic protocol is not observed here sometimes, we all agree that some joviality is sometimes necessary. I do not want to go into too much detail here Jess ( will send you mail )

I tried to help you Bonnie in hijacking Michaels thread......but it just didn't work

Hi JSH,

Here's what I'm finding interesting so far. Do you see what I see? The "Thread Killers" are not posting yet on this thread.

very telling

michael

Bonnie....

WHAT the wedding is OFF....

OMG...how can he do that to you??? Why would he not want to marry you....You might have MORE hair than him
I thought that he LOVED to stroke all that hair on your CHIN

I posted...do I not count all of a sudden?

LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT. don't be coming on to JSH and tell everyone how to do things. i have had some people get me flustered HARDCORE. now i BARELY post on here anymore due to the fact that i drive taxi and i barely sleep. instead of being on here replying or joking around i am trying to sleep.
so quite simple i remember about 6 to 8 months ago someone else tried to "control" how threads were. that person is no longer on here due to that fact. last i had heard from that person they were banned for "inticing an arguement over a thread". so mg1959 i would watch what toes you step on on here. to all of the gals that are on here these are for you.

HEY DAMNIT,,I read you and I see where YOU are coming from,
and Their are alot of pps here who will agree to the same reasons as you..Some can't or don't want to go very deep into ANY threads as it takes them out of the FUN or NICE thoughts and MAKES them go into SOME bad lifes experiences, that make it
NOT A GOOD TIME....
But to m, we have FUN threads and real threads, and very sad threads, and WE ALL have the power to REP:Y to ANY or ALL that WE feel are cool or one that we just want to vent a little in but NOT maintain being ALL the way through it..
Nothing wrong with any of that...

Hello Cloudy, of course you count lad
Now Mr Joel, had you been following this thread VERY carefully you would have gotten the jist of it. No one is instigating a riot or has any intention of instigating one................See, this is where being an " adult " comes into play.......................................

Hi Miguel,

Sorry I missed you in Vegas BTW. We'll hook up in time I'm sure. Bonny and I am looking forward to it.

JSH,

I'm glad that you are voicing your opinions. It's good to see where people stand on things.

peace,

michael

Hi JSH,

Sometime you might want to do a little study on threads in the past. 5 months ago you could engage in a topic for 5,6, or even 7 pages with intelectaul stimulation. You could at the same time jump to a thread that was full of laughter, and nothing but. I enjoyed doing both (it's what attracted me to JSH). Now it's not quite as balanced.

I decided to put this thread up to see where JSH is at. I'm still wondering. It's good to have a mix, but what I wanted to know is "Is it a good thing to mix it up?". Mike, and Van have added new forums. This says something to me. They are building a site that allows people to have more space. This is a very good thing. It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out.

Here's what I recommend. Thread killers, give JSH a chance to develop into different categories. In the long run you will see that there will be a very nice balance, and a place for everyone, and every mood. I for one am looking forward to seeing the internet as a whole become more balanced. On JSH, we can work together to make this special place always stay special.

Michael...

BRAVO!!!
