I thought I was letting this thread go, but apparently I am not ready too.

I will continue to hang around emotional support. Maybe not in a large group but definitely by myself or with a few others. And I will be there just in case someone needs support. No one is going to go into emotional support when they need to if no one is there. and maybe that person will need chit chat to help them open up and talk. It is much easier to go into a room like ES when you need to if people are already there. It is easier than going to another room and stating "I need support." Although I did just do that, I am a tad different than most. Instead of going to ES, I had 2 gentlemen PM me.
If I am wrong in my thinking, let me know. I CAN handle the truth. I am expressing my opinion only and that can't be wrong.

All we ask is that people be aware and respectful of the room that they are in, and keep their off-topic, social chat to a minimum while in ES. And if someone specifically asks people to move a social conversation elsewhere, the other members respect the request and simply move (without it becoming an issue).
Of course social conversation will happen in ES. We only ask that people keep it to a minimum.
Thanks,

I just don't know who to listen to. 
Do not misunderstand me. If I am asked by a moderator to leave a room, I will listen. If that room is emotional support and if I notice it empties out completely, I may return,
and
I don't like being alone.
