awwww, Gracie, I think MOST of us are about the same age. Please don't be discouraged. Hopefully the children will find people their own age to play with.
Sammie, you had good intent, then we followed suit. I don't blame you for being upset. Many of us volunteered because of the basic plan you put forth. I remember the day this all came together. We were all of pm'ing each other back and forth and it was a wonderful feeling.
If someone wanted to start another kind of thread, they should have and not bastardized Helping Hands. Just to help someone move is ludicrous. As I stated earlier, we would be swamped with requests and then fall into the moving business. Everyone wants help with that! And as Johnny rightfully pointed out, there could be liabilities attached to the heavy lifting of boxes or breaking someone's items.
I think the admins were very heavy-handed in this situation. They deleted threads and they blamed one person, Bright, and THAT IS THE WRONG PERSON!
Cassie, hit me with your best shot because I'm really p.o'ed over this.
Let's see how long this posts stays up!
