Either way you read it, I meant to say -- simply -- that without updates, we should not keep focusing on the reasons behind BT1's continued downtime and no updates. Vent in ONE thread and move on, because the minute BT1 comes back (if it comes back), everyone will know it!

Wild speculation on the causes, reasons, motivations, etc. -- while in many people's human nature -- can only go so far here. I'm kindly and respectfully asking people to focus on expressing their own emotions about the situation, and leave the speculation elsewhere. I think everyone's had quite enough of it.

Thanks,

Praise be . Live and let live. Move on. It's time. I'm doing my best to keep a positive outlook toward this new "set up" yet... it really is as User Name / Linda has stated: The positives are just being so drowned by the ... vents? speculations? whatevers? about BT and JL that the positives that, otherwise, could surface here are being squashed (or, if some prefer, buried or nestled so deeply within threads that have been hijacked).

Thank you for your posts: DocJohn, ZombieS., User Name, and others looking forward to also looking ahead .

(... and sorry that I've not replied to personal messages - PMs and E-mails - very much lately ... I've been on vacation and am doing my catch up reading this week, I promise!)

Can people just do as DocJohn politely suggested, though? Really? I do believe I have given to the BT community - more than in terms of monetarily - and I am so weary of reading even more innuendo about BT, JL, its moderators, and so on. That type stuff is not "support," in my estimation.

Tell me to shove it, or whatever, but... it is time to move on and make the best of the venue DocJohn has offered all of us . Venting is one thing, but "beating" a subject or person to ... well, that's another story.
