Hi, Brain!

Well said, and let's leave the old behind and celebrate the new.

DocJohn is my hero!

DocJohn - Thank you for the welcome and reassurance.


Fellow Exodites - Let's leave the past behind and be glad we found this wonderful site. (Don't make me get all sentimental again)

Thanks DocJohn for the welcome!

I think we're still in shock over what happened there and still trying to get past it.

Lot's of things were left unfinished for us. It's tough but we will get over it

This place is utterly fantastic!

Thank you for the warm welcome DocJohn.

I, for one, and ready to move on. Dwelling on the past is not conducive to moving on - so let's just push past it everyone and enjoy this new community that has welcomed us so graciously.

Now....I'm gonna have some icecream for breakfast to celebrate!!!

Glad to be here for you and everyone... One of the things I try and remember to keep me humble is that I am on this earth to serve you. So if I'm ever not doing my job, please let me know.

And Moose, I'll let ya know if the need ever arises!

DocJohn

That's all we wanted, just a warm place to sit and talk, cheer each other up - these folks have always been so good at that. We're family.

We had a nice home and things got weird there, sorry to vent about it here. They basically said no off topic chat. They couldn't afford it and the sponsors were getting restless.

We are just concerned, as many of us as there are, we could wear out our welcome with all our gabbing here.



Let us know if things get out of hand and we'll tone it down.

Thanks again for having us. We'll clean up after ourselves - won't we Moose?

I was telling my DH (MR. LOGIC) about the other place closing the Cafe and stuff. He said "so what difference does it make to the sponsers".. Wouldn't they just want people to be there to see their ads?

I mean how many times can you post about their product. I think things would end fast if thats all that was talked about.

We oldies pretty much know about all the DMD's and the sites that are offering trial opportunities. The newbies could find all kinds of answers at the forums dealing with specific MS symptoms or drug info, etc.

The other sites are enjoyable for taking ones mind somewhere else. Playing, laughing, creating and general stuff.

There were many other forums for tech info and medication stuff, or symptomology.

On this site I enjoy going to all the various communities. It's great.

So, you also had a thread never "approved" and posted, huh? I also have an e-mail into them for 2 days with no response.
I also took it to read that "they" were concerned about keeping sponsors happy. I did not quite understand the logic. I also e-mailed my concerns and opinions but, like you, was absolutely ignored.

Like others have said, it may be best to drop the old and embrace the new.
