Just because most anyone can post...
doesn't make it a PUBLIC forum. It's privately owned therefore they make the rules. You can always go somewhere else.

Talk Host had come to a Villages Computer Club meeting in July of 2007 to get people to join Talk of the Villages. They even had a lottery with nice prizes if you signed up for TOTV. I joined them and started posting and going to the weekly Crispers mid-afternoon meals on Fridays. Some of the people I met in these dates do still post on TOTV but some have died, some moved away, some went to just Facebook or some other kind of message board, and others I have no idea where they went.

As for "contacting moderators" over the years I have asked 2 or 3 questions of them from their "contact us" form but NEVER have received a response.

Cool !! I was a Compuserve "BBS FORUM" moderator back in the early 1980's TRS-80 days. Then had my own dial-up BBS (one of the first public BBS's with a hard drive (5 MEGAbytes!!) in the US and then first with a Hayes 1200 baud modem I was field testing). Those were the fun days.

Not fun today for sure. I'm at the point feeling social media is causing far more harm than good. But that is a different topic. |

I was on Findlaw from around 2002 through 2007 or so. Tried to help a man who was in hot water in Northern VA. Travelling to many of the Tampa Bay area academic and law libraries to help this man with his pro bono case. You could just make up your user name and change it hundreds of times if you so desired back then. The cyber bullying was completely out-of-control and I learned near the end that the worst one I had posting many personal attacks every day of me turned out to be the person I had been travelling all over the Tampa Bay area to help with his legal research.
I could not wait to find some other place online. And found it with Talk of the Villages. I only look at Findlaw every so often now. Last edited by Taltarzac725; 11-07-2022 at 02:31 PM. |
