What happened to our forum?

Am I crazy... did we just lose like 90% of the people in here?

Maybe I'm losing it...

Well how do they say at our meetings?


We are all here because we aren't all there.


Maybe some of them are there more than they used to be?



Folks come and go...sometimes in waves. Also, with all the down time forced upon us, some may have discovered a way to break away from this damned addicting computer (yeah, yeah, ANOTHER addiction, but I am NOT willing to work ANOTHER program right now! grin).

But I'm here... most especially when I am not all there... (((hugs)))

Do you mean that you just don't see as many people on here anymore? I haven't noticed, but then again I haven't been coming to this site for much more than a few months.

Yeah... there used to be like a hundred people viewing... now it's, like, seven. I noticed it immediately after all the problems with the forum. Plus, now there aren't nearly as many threads to search. Guess they aren't going to get them back. That sucks, because I was wanting to see my "first" post the other night.

Aw well.

We crashed and the threads in this forum were all lost.

The recent backup was corrupt. We could install an old backup, but that would wipe out everything in all the forums from the last 8 months. It was decided that it would be better to leave it this way.

We're all pretty sad about it, but we just have to move on. A lot of the guests that were viewing were the search engines. Now that all the threads are gone there will be a lot less traffic from the search engines and guests on this forum until we build it back up again.

........

I'm still here every once in a while but currently

I tried a link somewhere up there in the verbal/mental abuse thread...and I liked that place and find it more helpful to me regarding a lot of the stuff am currently dealing with.

So, I'm more there than here...although I still pop in here every now and again and read and such.

I thought it was just me, LOL! We have seemed to down sized a bit but hopefully, that's because the others are doing so well in their recovery.

I'm here, Tryin, but not so much...very busy with work, had to travel recently and my laptop just doesn't do well any more and, well...just in a place where I am a bitquiet and feel I have little to say. I know that will change, and it's okay now or however recovery changes things in the next today. Lots of hugs

I agree with Greet. I have decided that if I really think a post will help I will post. If not, I just read and keep quiet.

Last night I kept quiet in meeting too.

Listening is a good thing, especially if I feel a little teeth grinding coming on or a head shaking... Oh time to just shut the noise door!.

I'm here! I go in waves where I'm busy traveling or need to work... but I'm here.

Today I'm REALLY here.
