What is it you are Thankful for?

Going โ€˜round the table- everybody gets a turn and you canโ€™t say whatโ€™s already been said!

That said, Iโ€™m thankful for this community. ๐Ÿ˜Š
Everybody coming back and being here again. It motivates me to continue on. These days, it motivates me to continue to hone my skills and improve what weโ€™ve got.
10 years ago this community motivated me to continue my life. Continue trying, and continuing to be patient and kind to others.

I used to be quite empathic. Now after locking myself in front of a computer screen for years, Iโ€™ve lost my touch with people. I donโ€™t connect to them as well and I while I can still feel for a situation, itโ€™s more difficult for me to put that to words and help them like I used to be able to do.
So- Iโ€™m thankful for having the ability to give back in my own way, even if itโ€™s not with my โ€œWordsโ€ that I was once able to braid in ways that comforted and encouraged others.
Iโ€™m thankful for being part of a community of so many that are willing to share the worst times of their life with others, so that those others can see that there is a bright side to look forward to.

Iโ€™m thankful for Help. Given, received, passed along. Iโ€™m thankful we are a helpful race. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Okay Jebus, just for you, I came back.

It was me. ๐Ÿ˜ž
He had a 1 day ban last Friday(?) for posting a controversial post (political bashing) and then when warned to cease, he became insulting and swearing at everyone.
Heโ€™s more than welcome back, but before the ban was even placed he said on his own that he was leaving and not coming back.

Can we get https?

Itโ€™s doable! The difficult part is to get a โ€œgoodโ€ one costs ~$50/year.

There are free certificates available, but they are less respected by some browsers. Some browsers/devices will even reject access to the site if youโ€™re using one of the free ones.

Who are the mods?

I hand picked the first bunch. Dani and Fract were mods on OH- while opposites, I feel they both handled the responsibility in an excellent way.

Padre was the owner/maintainer/Admin of the interim Help site(s). And while I canโ€™t say much about how well he did since I wasnโ€™t really around (although he kept most of the community together, so thatโ€™s something!) I can tell heโ€™s a good guy that has Helpโ€™s best interest in mind.

Just had to get a few mods to cover us for now- but yep! As we need more weโ€™ll have a community driven voting process to select the next mods.

Hi, it's Dolly from help\chat.

Welcome Dolly! Happiness is more important than money, but you need a little bit of money to be happy!

I know money is evil, but you need money to have a comfortable place to live- and that is a pretty big factor to happiness for most!

So congrats!!

Whereโ€™s the fun in that? Then people would know that we are introverted and donโ€™t like going out.

You cannot prevent or control what others do or say about you. I'd rather be known as a woman of my word than be labeled a liar.

๐Ÿ˜ž She is correct. All jokes aside, while not โ€œsocially acceptableโ€ just being perfectly honest and saying you donโ€™t want to go is probably the best course of action.
