You can meet her anytime you want as she is always up on stage at exercise classes. As a matter of fact you can also meet her in the Horsen'Around club, Polo Club, Rainy Villa club, Teaching English as a Second Language, Helping the homeless etc. She loves the Villages and has tons of friends here. Read all the well wishes on helping hands as she had surgery in July. She was banned but so were many others.
Again...please don't make any assumptions!!!
Hi Alex,

I sent you a PM on this and I am quite confused. I never meant to in any way criticize her. Maybe I have made (dangerous) assumptions. But it is my understanding that the censorship on this site has been primarily due to hostile/unfriendly comments by posters.

I may not always agree with their posts (as TH will tell you), but I don't think they are deleting posts that are critical of The Villages. I know people who are no longer on this site that are good people. I don't know if the admins were "right" or "wrong" in banning them. It is not my intent to judge. As Boomer pointed out on another thread, it is not always easy to control your tone as you type as opposed to as you speak.

My point, if I was unclear, was to tell Senior that the admins did not censor posts that were anti_TV. From my understanding of the Sticky Enough! thread, they censored posts they felt were meanspirited.
