This is a bit of a sensitive issue really Zil and I've been struggling for how to share it for some time now. As I said in my first post, no one is to blame other than myself and I put it in bold text hoping that everyone would know this is an issue I'm 110% responsible for.

If you come here to joke around and have fun Zil you must be supported in that goal otherwise we've failed you. The idea is to give everyone a vehicle here to express themselves in the manner they see fit. The problem is that the forums are overrun with fun and it doesn't help someone who's really hurting.

What we need to do is to put things in their place a bit more so people with real issues feel comfortable enough to share here. Serious issues demand serious discussion so turning all our content into a laugh in is not putting our best foot forward and is of no value to people in need.

I want people to come here because they need to come here and then learn of this other dynamic which is lighthearted, fun, and silly at times; not come here and see lighthearted, fun and silly at times but nothing to help heal.

In truth you can laugh pretty much everywhere but the same can't be said for dealing with tough issues.
