That truly means a lot to me that I was your first thought. Thank you. Yes I would be honoured to accept that gift. :)

lol. 😄 I certainly wouldn't say no :)

Based on the quick web search it is an interesting idea, and something that I could possibly use. But at the same time, from what I'm reading, there is little value to the classes after watching them the first time. And they don't typically cover the technical skills of the craft they are instructing about.

In Canada the cost is $240 and that is certainly more than I would want to pay for something that I am unsure of how much use I would get from it.

I can't say as I have... not in the context of streaming services :)

Hey! Happy Christmas and Boxing day to you too!

We are able to get it... My dad has a smart TV that has Roku. I just stick to Netflix and Disney plus.

😂😂😂😂

Oh! You did get her after all. (You're not obligated to keep her). I just put her together during a few hours of boredom, thinking of Mr. Helpbot. Lol!

I made a female companion to Helpbot but I couldn't use her because I'm a guy.

Want her?

Hahaha!
Hell, I don't know anymore.
Between my spelling becoming worse and fighting auto-correct, I don't know which battle is one/won - lol!

Crowd? A large group of people.

Thank you for the tip.
I will certainly send my regards.
It sucks when mans best friend dies -
Speaking of which....I'm sure you already know that Big Willy's dog has passed (apparently at 20-years-old).

I had a miniature collie for over 16 years. Died when I was 19. Still hurts from time to time. He was a good boy.

Thanks again.😉

Ah! Thank you, I was close but I wanted to be more exact.
(I shouldn't have made it so hard on myself, but I did and couldn't take it anymore, so that's when you came to mind).... Just ask Soco, she knows all the dates!😄

Anyway, I was just going over some statistics. Congratulations, you have the highest reply count standing.

I wouldn't have thought so, but it seems I follow you in that count - which is odd because I don't feel as though I'm here that often...

Oh well.... (Pops the cork). Here's to us. Cheers.

Okay....so.....
According to the time stamp of your Post that celebrates the One Year mark of Help 2.0, it was Posted 1 year and 2 months ago.
That would be approximately November 1, 2018....
It would also mean the new Help doors were opened about
November 1, 2017.
Or am I missing something?

Hey u can whisper on a shout so its secret! How do u do that? Thats a new feature. I never saw that b4

Hiya i got a question. U know how u found god n it changed u from the bad times. What were the bad times?

🙄 Nope. Just sneaky bots changing their algorithms.

didnt know.. sorry bout that. thanks for the warning.

Absolutely.
I’m quite certain it’s the same spam bot, but they’re using a dynamic IP, so banning doesn’t do anything. 😔

Just going to have to do some text analysis, I suppose. Which sucks. Have HelpBot examine the post and if it looks like one of those- auto trash it.

👍

Been having a few of those spammers lately. Might have to add in some sort of “not-a-bot” check of something looks sketchy.

I'll look right into it.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

It's back up. Made a few tweaks to hopefully make things a little better and blocked a few of the spam bots that have been trying to take us down. Let's see how it goes. 😅

Yeah, I killed it again because it was causing problems. 😓

A separate host would definitely help, but increase costs quite drastically. I've been looking at a few alternatives, but none of which are particularly enticing.

The archives are back up for the time being. Already seeing slowness. Really need to find a better, more permanent solution for this... 🤔

Nope! It’s still around. I just usually leave it off because it’s takes a lot. The server doesn’t handle it super well. Trying to look for a more stable solution but been extremely busy of late so haven’t had any time. 😓

What are you talking about

Caught me at a good time. 😉

Hm. While it uses a few offensive words, I don’t think that post is otherwise NSFW? Especially since bad words are censored any way.

Unless my skimming has failed me and I completely missed something. 😄

It says that its disabled

What

Girl number one is charlie

I never tested my match-making ability before...
What do you think?

Who's the crazy *****bitch with the tongue?And don't try to pass that off as you, me and Robbie have already figured out you're a man. LOL

And sorry for the slow response. 😉

Got it. 😄
Thank you for letting me know!

Very kind of you to say so.
I can only hope my wisdom keeps in step with my age.
Lol....morning wake-up's can be rough from time to time - haha! (!Oww!)

Thank you

Yeah I make mistakes like on the hour. I dont feel hurt by you. And whatever hurt I felt I got over quickly.
The problem I have is that I don't WANT to be hurt. I dont want to get attached to you and then be hurt.

See we didnt talk to long before all this.
Had we actually become close friends like me and Richard I would of been depressed for months over it (speaking from experience)
And now that I'm comfortable with death. Might of done that.
Not that my death is anyone's fault. 110% my own.
I just do stuff I shouldn't do.

I'll name one Charlie
Even if there isnt a boy girls can be named that too.
I'll show you when they are born if I'm still around.

As for Richard. He cant be with me physically but I'm allowed to wake him up at any time
I dont. But I have a few times before
Sometimes he is Busy of course.
Sometimes I'm impatiently paitent.
Nobody can be with someone 24/7
Not even people who live in the same house.
My behavior is my own responsibility. The only person with me 24/7 is me.

Also. My cats do wonders for my mental health.
If people were like cats I'd be awesome.
They are one of the main things that keeps me here most days
Them and Richard.
I know you think it's not possible but it is. Richard kept me from suicide for 4 years.
Just his friendship did that
Wasnt till recent I finally crossed the line.
Even though I've crossed the line you know how many days I dont?
No one gives credit to all the times Richard as convinced me not to.
Dont get me wrong. Im not looking for someone to talk me down from the ledge.
The only reason Richard can is because I know he is my true genuine friend. I believe his word more so than any other human.
Takes alot to get that kind of relationship established

Also. I have extreme urges to kill myself
Not with pills this time.
I want to so badly
Right now I really want to. I really really want to
But you know why I havent.
1 reason.
My cat is pregnant
I wanna be here for the babies
If I'm not they want be properly cared for.
But even though is the most exciting happy thing to happen to me. I still so badly want to die.
It takes alot just to decide to go one more day. Even though you think you can do no more then my cats that's not so far. My cats bring me genuine joy. and my friend gives me soemthing I've always needed I'm a human. Not living around him just makes me feel safer.
I dont need you to carry some of my weight. I'll carry it myself
But my cats and friend do help more than you understand
Richard is awesome and my cats are blessings

I took some time to ponder how I wanted to respond.
You are right to leave. Self preservation.
I'm not good to be in peoples lives.
I'm lucky enough that one person has stuck it out. I dont need more than one. But I do need one.
I felt insecure wondering if he cant love me
Cause nobody can right?
Part of me thinks "good"
The other part of me doesnt like that because I'm rather codependent. Dont wanna think my favorite person doesnt like me.
It's not creepy to love a boy. Not all love is boyfriend girlfriend love. I just love him. The same way you love a family member
But maybe not so much my family members not still

He says he does. But I think your probably right

He unlike you probably just feels obligated to stay. Probably cause God told him too.
Who knows. But even if he doesnt love me I still am happy hes around.

But. I do wanna say this. You learned you cant be in my life. That's okay.
I'm toxic to your health.
But I dont believe in part time friendship
Your either there or your not.
I dont want friendship only when its ideal for you.
After you stopped being my friend you messaged me telling me I could talk to you. and when I actually did you ignored me. Dont say things like that to me if you dont mean it. Dont promise me something and dont keep it.
It's more damaging for me to have people in and out of my life then have people just leave.

I respect that you cant be my friend because of me
But you cant just have it your way.
You message me when it works for you but I csnt message you.

So. Then i dont know how to say it politely but I really mean no disrespect. If what's best for you is not being my friend and I'm willing to do that just dont message me at all. Because in and out doesnt work for me.
We may not even be close but when you straight up ignore me after giving me permission to message you. It makes me not well emotionally for a few days.

I get the wrong idea that we are actually friends and you leave. It makes me not awesome feeling. I like stability. I like simple things like knowing mom paid the rent and that I bought enough pet food to not have to worry about running out and that the people in my life stay.
It's just not good to have people in and out

Richard has never left me. Beem my friend for almost 5 years.
And what happened between us makes me question my relationship with him
That's not your fault or his. But it gives me doubts and I start applying what happened to us as what is true with everyone else
