Going Dark?

LOL I actually think that there is more leeway there.
Now, you may get piled on if you have a different opinion than the majority so you need to have a thick skin if you're going against that. I DO have a thick skin so it doesn't bother me. It does make you think and consider your stand though. You have to know what you know that you know.

That's why I wouldn't fit in there at all. Most of my views go against the majority, and I would get piled on too often. I get enough of that here, LOL!

Once again, another member has gone missing. Samuel Adams..... Anyone know?

I bounce back and forth. The two make for a complete look on the world. To call one better, is an "on any given day" reality. The Tree has a better Christian focus from my perspective. Too many poo poo it at the bomb.....to some degree.

There is tremendous intellect and knowledge at both sites..... making them both so valuable. Not to mention the love. It too oozes from both sites.

The reason I ask about missing members is that I consider all members here as TTOL family. When long standing members suddenly disappear, I worry that something has happened to them. That's why I ask. Each member has a unique personality and outlook that is surely missed.

I have been here long enough to remember people like INVAR and Chicom and johngaltfla, and I miss people like that. Seems like there used to be more diversity here.

I am a member over at tb2k, but somehow I always seem to stay away long enough to forget my log-in, and it's a serious hassle to get checked back in, so I never go there. There are 2 other prepper forums I've been on, but they both changed leadership about the same time, and that made me suspicious of who was running things and I haven't been back.

Don't know, though, where Meemur went. Maybe she just got sidetracked with holidays and family. I'm glad you and CaryC are still here, though.

Thank you, grower! I would definitely miss you if you were to leave! I really enjoy your Christian perspective.

Lack of activity, I think, is the major reason why people are leaving, but don't know that in every case. There isn't as much activity as there once was. We get new members all the time, but they never participate for whatever reason. Old members don't participate like they once did, either. I like things more active, too. I'm always thinking about ways to make TTOL more active and appealing to a larger crowd. I think our topics are pretty diverse already, but parts of the forum aren't active at all.

We are all in this together, folks. As much as HouseWolf needs our financial support, he also needs more participation if we all plan to keep TTOL alive and active, I think.

Purty good thinkin ... I think.
