Smile ~*~ Gentle Reminder on the Purpose of SOS ~*~

Survivors of Suicide
Quote:
Alffe:Who are we? And why do we hang out here?

Some of us have lost a loved one to suicide...some of us are feeling so crushed by life that we want it to end.

We come together for support..we count on each other to pick us up, dust us off and give us a reason to try some more.

We don't judge people in this forum and we ask not to be judged ourselves.
When you share here, we promise to listen with our hearts.

All are welcome....especially lurkers!
First of all we are here to offer and receive support. That may come in may different avenues.

Straying from the main purpose of the forum once in awhile is fine.

We all need to keep in mind of the people that are reading here for help. Most will never join, but do get help from what we have posted.

I am gently asking that SOS not be used for so much OT, but that those posts and threads be made in the appropriate forums.

this is absolutly not about you or anyone in particular.

doc made the other type of forums, like social and emotional support, so the forums don't end up with too much OT. going OT is fine. we just need to watch how much we do it.

I agree...so thumps to the head and earpulling at the same time to moi....

my apology IS sincere...I DID go overboard...no excuses...

so, I hope a lot of lurkers read here and know that they are SAFE to come in here and talk about the TOPIC...SOS...

and yes, I KNOW it's not about moi...LMAO.....

well, I will bow out gracefully before I put anymore foot in my mouth...

I will see you all when I can "calm" down.......

oh...i forgot to add..

it does help if the off topic threads are title with an OT. that will help those not wishing to read OT threads.

the wonder threads don't need that.

don't forget to put a link inthe wonder thread to other threads you make in the other forums.

Thanks yappa for reminding me... I swear I wrote very close to the same thing on someones postie that went in mail today... or was it my hand lol.
I dont understand about putting link in wonder thread to other posts we make in other forums...like I post in T.N. and creative corner but I never
leave a link...I figure one can just stalk my posts and find all they wish .
so back to seriously ..not using s.o.s. as fun and games cept for every now and then...got ya
I wont say I am sorry (but bmw is) ..... instead I will just remember and promise to stick to the gentle reminder .
THANKS . hugs to everyone and ....of coarse...
PEACE
BMW

what i mean is like when cheryl mentioned her thread on stumble inn about the portland trip, to include a link. or if other ot type of posts are made on social that you want sos members to be included or know about.

I thank you for the quote to Moi, I didn't see in there anything about a particular thead, hence the reason for my asking.
Just wanted to make sure
Abbie that is a GREAT idea! I wonder how we can get that set up. I didn't see your post when I wrote mine, but that is just what I meant..... I want to share with YOU GUYS, something like that would be perfect. Your so smart

I saw what you said about not being about one person or one particular thread, but just the same......... If I've done something wrong!

If opening the Sleepless Thread was the wrong thing to do, then please accept my most humble apologies.
