I know that the majority of the people here understood what I was trying to help with when I started the "where do i start" thread and did the "pulse taking" kudos poll.

However, now the poll has been locked. and I've been treated as though I was asking for the kudos forum to be removed. Sometimes it helps if we really, really read a post before we react. reacting is very different from responding. i saw a lot of reacting. don't get me wrong, i thought someone might misinterpet it and i thought that my explanations and reassurances would clear things up. my PMs are only off to the people that i have on ignore. i would never, ever put a mod or admn on ignore.

for the last and only time i'm going to say this. there are people here who are ignored. ignored. ignored. ignored. i'd hate like hell to be a new poster here. unless i had such a dramatic story that people knocked each other down to get to it, i'd feel up the creek without the paddle.

i had absolutely nothing to gain, personally, except seeing people who need some attention get it. Merry Christmas, everyone.
