I don't envy the moderators who have to keep our discussions "legal" according to the rules of this forum. It must be a very difficult job and I applaud them for their hard work.
I’ve been on this forum fo almost eleven years. For many years I spent some time every day perusing and posting. The site was, in general, light hearted, positive, and informative. Much like the country as a whole it has become combative, nasty, divisive, and uninteresting. I come on here fairly seldom anymore, as I love TV and things of specific interest to The Villages and Villagers, but find less and less of that these days.
