Z,
I had typed this whole wonderful post telling you how great IW is. I hope I can remember all I put in it:
First off, let me say what a great site you have here. You run a "tight ship" in monitoring posts and members. That's a good thing. As a result of all your extra work monitoring we have a board without a lot of the crap you find on some other places on the web. By that I mean, in other newsgroups/boards/chat rooms, I've gotten called stupid for asking a question on a software issue. I've had people harrasing me and some friends while we were talking on a chat room for abuse survivors. Apparently some people think it's funny to yell at and abuse people who are already emotionally raw. Here, we don't have that. Sure, sometimes people's feeling get hurt unintentionally, but I think overall, everyone here tries to respect each others differences and feelings.
Second, I love the internationality here. It's really neat to me to hear how people that grew up in a culture other than mine see events that are going on in the world. Many times it helps give me a better picture of what's going on in the world when I hear views other than what the news here is showing me.
Third, I don't have any kids, but I'm old enough to be a parent of some of our members, and I have to say, if I had a kid, I would have no problem whatsoever with allowing them to be a member of this forum and I would even be willing to pay a small fee to let my kid be a member. I hope you realize what a huge compliment that is!
Thanks for the service you provide. Please tell the great Choc that I bow before his greatness [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
