For some reason
The forum will not let me vote, but hell yes I'll attend a 12 step meeting with you guys. I think an organized chat would be a great thing for us.
Sorry to start a new thread, but it wouldn't let me vote and I had to exprress some excitement.

It wouldn't let me vote either, but it would let me send a comment.....lol I believe online meetings can be great, but there's just one problem...for me, anyway......I REALLY don't like 'text' meetings....I waaaay prefer VOICE chat meetings.
I belonged to another recovery site that had online 'text' meetings, but when I suggested trying 'voice' meetings by using/creating meeting rooms on ..... paltalk.com, or somewhere like them, their response was they felt it might be exclusionary....for folks who might not be able to afford speakers and mic.....and this from a site that charges $180. a year for membership, I asked....? Heck, I haven't seen a laptop or a monitor for the last, almost, 10 years that haven't come with speakers.....and a mic can still be bought for about $10......
Ah, but I digress.....lol.....I would love to see more online recovery meetings, but if they're text....?....I might have to give them a pass.....it's just too hard on these old eyes, and tweaking has never been my forte.....lol
Trudge on y'all------------
