I have deleted the "How many identities" thread. It has gotten out of hand. This site is designed to give Villagers their say without hindrance from any outside source.

We think we have achieved that, but we see this thread as counter productive. It has descended to apparent personal attacks and we don't want that. If you want to take somebody to task personally, there are private means to do that.

We want all members to be comfortable and not be reluctant to post. This thread does not achieve that goal. This site is intended to let us all hear from anyone who wants to post unless it gets personal.

Describing how far we will let it go is difficult, but I think the preponderance of us can recognize when it has gone too far. The administrators have seen another forum, unrelated to Talk of The Villages, collapse because of this kind of posting. We will not let it happen here.

I hope you understand and agree.

IMHO, the subject was beaten to death; I feel the same way about the buffalo and said so....

[Russ_Boston]

Yep!

[Just Susan]

I agree.

Tony, we bow to the wisdom of the Admins. :bow:

I know that we all appreciate your hard work and the tough decisions you sometimes have to make. TOTV has brought a lot of joy and new friends into my life, and I want to thank you. 024

I have no idea what the subject thread was about but I ,too, have seen forums suffer from the lack of control by the admins.

And I say, "Thanks Tony". I have participated in numerous forums and this one is by far the best.

I had never been a part of a board before I showed up here last winter. And it took me a little while to begin to do any writing. Now I can't seem to stop. I watched this place for awhile, until it felt OK. When it did, I started to participate. And I am still here. It's a nice place.

Thanks admins, I know it can't be easy to keep up with all this and make those calls. And now, we are growing by leaps and bounds.
