BND,

Flowery ? Poetic? Scrawl ?

Once a year, I allow myself to do that......

As far as being considered Old-Timers.

There was a post on another thread the other day where we were referred to as "old-timers". Just making a reference..... :p

What am I trying to say?

Just that there seems to be a gap in good MLC advice lately, and from people (at least me) who have been-there, done-that get to a point where they feel stuck dealing with OPS, and need a break.

Most of the good points and real advice that people need to hear, is not around anymore.

Hypocritical ? From me ? Probably, cause yes....I didn't post for a long time.

My thoughts ?

There are gaps in our time-frames with advice. It seems to be either those of us that have been here a while (2 years or more ), or newer people posting.

True, that while being in the trenches, advice is different. There doesn't seem to be a lot of that going on here anymore, with all the personal contact now. I.E.----the Alt.

So what ARE the boards now ?

A ton of expectations that status is the only way a person is successful or not.....MAJOR BS !!!!!!

KS.....YOU.....are not a failure. In no way shape or form.

An inspiration ? In many ways girl.

Muffin ? You are too....



I got called out on posting a while ago, and I'm tryin to be nice about it now.

But there are people here who could really provide some great insight , that don't share as much as they could.

Is that because of anger ? Or they feel like a failure? That they feel their advice sucks ?

I don't have that answer.

I DO know that if this stings a bit, it is probably true though. It stung a little for me.

I am guilty of that as well, and the Pirate called me out on that.

Work restrictions on internet (and no service on the battlefield) have kept me from being here as much as I should be. Not an excuse, just a reason.



So ......Muffin....

What exactly would you like on my thread ?

I kinda thought posting to others, that needed it, WAS the purpose of being here.

And if "status" really doesn't matter ( and with me it DOESN'T ), then regardless of my sh!t, my advice should be based on just that, my advice, not my situation....

If I had a "thread".....it would be serious for about three posts....




BND.....Sorry about the "butt" dial the other day, and I hope you are feeling well.... : )
