i dont understand why people are afraid of the chatroom ,its the same people who respond to your posts ,i dont get it .i spend a lot of time there and it is not some terrible scary place with people hiding and waiting to ambush each other. no one there would ever intentionaly try to scare or trigger anybody , but thats just me and i understand if its not for everybody ,its just that the chatroom gets to seem like a bad place with all the posts about bad things happeneing there,i dont see it ,for those who have progressed to the level that they can talk realtime it is a very healing place ,maybe not for everybody ,but its not a bad place at all .

I've had trouble in chat, too. It's like since it's live all the walls come down. For some guys it works. But not for me.

If the boards help, I'd use them. I haven't been in chat for a long time, and for me that works.

if we can't deal with the chatroom how can we ever deal with all the stuff out in the real world? i think chat is a stepping stone to being more open in our lives you know out there in the real world ,where nobody holds back and everything is realtime .

Shadow,

That's an excellent point. The chat room will never be perfect, just as the world itself will never be perfect. I just wish the rest of my live were as calm as the chat room usually is!

Much love,
Larry

Sorry to see you go Steven.
