Are You Getting What you Want or Need From This Forum

It's a way to communicate with people who live in different places, sharing opinions which often opens my eyes to different view points, new ideas. When I got my first computer someone suggested I try ICQ and I loved it. I kept it open to everyone all over the world, a nice at home adventure.

As far as this one goes, I am to new to make a judgement. So far I like what I see. If I had one complaint it would so many different areas it gets a little confusing as to where I posted. The subscription helps with that.
 
So far so good. Caring , smart , aware and so funny. Thank You!! 8:00am here (The moon) still. On my way out now for my day.

I have been "laid-up" recently. I find I enjoy the forum more if I don't do it daily. My only improvement would be to remove old
threads (ex: what's on your agenda) . The pot roast is cooked and left overs should be thrown out. With the busy holidays, this may be hard. I love you help me to keep the brain wheels from freezing up

Ken Thank you for the tip, that will help. I did see the profile thing, but had forgotten. Is that your bug crawling around my desktop. I need a fly swatter. :D
 
Hi Susie, glad to know you're still around and like the forum. Don't think I knew you had also lived in US. I like the forum, too. It gives me a place to browse in the still of the night when I can't sleep and a place to dribble my longer thoughts.
 
I’m new to the forum but I enjoy the people so far. It’s nice to be able to tune in on conversations whenever I feel like it from home. I would like to learn more about senior activities in various areas. Seniors have so much wisdom to share I’m surprised there aren’t more senior groups in every city to address a variety of topics.

(I think I posted this reply once before but don't know where it went.)
 
I enjoy Senior Forums and look in most days, even if I don’t post on the topics I read all that interest me and like to say good morning each day as well as playing some of the word games
 
I definately like the place, and will hang around awhile. I first joined to get more info on retirement issues, and the financial part of it all. I like hearing from folks who have been there/done that. Like wren, I read more than I post, but I do enjoy many of the topics here.
 
I just realized this thread was started in 2014! No wonder I didn't recognize alot of names.

Everyone here (almost) has been so welcoming to me ..it's like walking into a friendly room full of people. I'm glad I found this place !
 
I would like to see more posts of a CONTROVERSIAL NATURE without personal attacks at individuals or BANNING a poster for merely mentioning a CONTROVERSIAL SUBJECT.

IMO, a-bit hard to have one , without the other. Controversy tends to lead to emotion, emotions often lead to less than kind words exchanged...human nature I believe.
 
I also was warmly welcomed like toomuchstuff when I joined Aug'17. I like the fact that some of our members are from around the world
One of the reasons I left AARP website,it became boring,the posters really didn't have anything exciting to say.The political forum was down right nasty,mean spirited. There are a lot of angry/very opinionated posters there,guess its their only place to vent. Sue

Seems like a lot of old threads are being bumped. I guess "everything old is new again." :D
 
I joined because the AARP forum is so awful in the way it is "organized." This forum makes it much easier to take part in discussions, and follow up on threads you've posted in. I like the folks in here, for the most part, and I learn things from them, almost everyday. I'm a happy camper.
