> >Well technicaly Ace has no buisness claming he is a "Nardil Champ" this in my OPINION mocks something as serious as taking medications,it`s not neccassary and should be on a social board,again in my OPINION.
> > But Ace posted here long before you and has deep connections here and is thought of with affection and concern by a number of prominent longtime Babblers. His Babble bona fides exceeds that of almost anyone else. Willyee, NO ONE would be in a position to suggest that Ace is not in every way a part of this community, no matter what his current posting frequency or content.First again i dont see the urge for you to use caps,but putting that aside even if you spoke for 99.9 percent of the people here,you still are not in a POSITION to say everyone yourself,since you OBVIOUSLY can not speak for everyone,know what i mean.
> >
> > So perhaps you wouldn't apply your objections to someone like Ace? But even if some other poster were not held in such high regard, nevertheless NO ONE would be in any position to suggest that she should not report her current success with meds on Babble or that she should temper her language in doing so. Also, NO ONE should discourage ANYONE ELSE from simply popping back in to say how she's doing. Just because one person may not want to read it doesn't mean that others aren't very interested to get her updates.
Are you stating your opinion here,or telling me a fact,your cap use again and again confuse me to whether or not your speaking on opinion,putting that aside yet again,i believe im entitled to a general opinion,i did not state aces name,now if you want to place Aces name there and how he constantly claims to be a Nardil Champ,and assuming im refierring to him,well thats your assumption,but these words were not typed by me so i dont see why your mentioning it.
> >
> > For example, when he's been gone from the boards for a while, *I* have privately been asked how Ace is doing! No one has yet asked me about you, nor do I imagine I would know what to tell them, but if you stopped posting for a while, shouldn't you be free to return just to give an update — without having your participation challenged?!
> >
Ok,i have been emailed by members here,i have been asked by members here to turn on my babble mail,i have members here i speak to on personal instant messages,just because i dont post the people i associate with here on a personal level does not mean i dont,this would be my reply to what seems to be,oh and i could be mistaken,but an assumption that well no one cares about me and definatly not as they do Ace?> > I'm sorry, but on repeated careful reading, I could not understand what you were talking about in some of your other paragraphs.

Ok ill admit i should have made it clear it was soly my opinion of this,having said this now,again im entitled to my opinion and again lol what is up with the constant caps,are you ok?> > > ,but i dunno i kinda see it as a bad value to only pop around soley when u need to post information on yourself

> > To my ear, feeling filled with joy doesn't perfectly accord with suggesting that people are not part of the community, that they don't post frequently enough and with the right sort of post to belong here, and that they should not freely share their current experiences.
>Ok youre taking a term i placed of my opinion,and pretty much repeating it,second i did not state no one should not post here,and i CERTAINLY did not post they should not share successes......please dont spin my words to things i clearly did not say,what i DID say actualy was i personaly feel people who are sharing there success should do so with the knowledge that many are not,the majority they posting too actualy,and that i personaly would use modesty knowing this when i do share my success.
My opinion of this is not as you mistakenly say i claim DISCOURGAING anyone from sharing success,i purposly posted this is a great thing for someone to do.
Im sorry you felt the need to use so many caps,but i did not post this to a specific person,and i did not state any rules or regualtions one MUST follow,i simply stated a personal opinion,i do so with respect.
I understand you feel stongly to my views,i dont however feel this gives you the right to fill your posts with caps all over,and personaly address this to me.
Im sorry if you are upset,but i really doesent change a single thing about how i feel,i again feel someone in remission or doing well should take note of where there posting,and be hunble and gracious in there sharing,and i believe im entitled to my opinion?
Im not here to be liked,i come here to share information,and get information,and to follow the rules as much as i can,as far as i know stating a personal general view is doing just that.
Im sorry you felt the strong need to use caps,any caps i used in my response were to show a relation to where i believe you mistook me.I do not feel the need to respond to you with caps,well because you are also entitled to your opinion,just please make sure you are not twisting my words,as in stating i discouraged the sharing of success stories when i clearly stated in my post i was in favor,total favor of this.
