Is there a way to attend by streaming media?  I would love to go, but can;t get there in August.

I did that last year. Good times.

I wish he still owned the site. Back then it was favorable to practicing Mormons. He even had me as a semi-Mod who living on the East Coast, I could get rid of the porn before anyone could see it. The darlings now here are (for the most part) anti-Mormons and ex-Mormons. People who have been banned are back within a year. The "limited" like myself remain so forever. I am going on two years and nine months for asking advice about how to deal with my Mother who is now gone God rest her soul. Even though now asking for advice is now allowed. I asked a two years to be reinstated and was told no. Then at 2 1/2 years...the mod said let me check with the other mods....in 120 seconds he got in though with them all...in short he lied and said no. They are also unforgiving and uncaring....except to the banned. They love the apostate, and belittle the believing. They need to see their Bishop, and God forbid any are a Bishop, or even worse a Stake President. Now all will be told that this is why I was limited, and now why I am banned.I love most of the posters and you all deserve better. I am the same person on other sites, and are treated well and with respect. Go figure! I hope to see you there, God knows I won't be able to see you here. There are so many I love here and wish I could still be in touch. I am over at LDS.NET, same name and you can always reach me at poemsbybill@bellsouth.net God bless you all! Even the Mods who despise me.

...dude, what are you talking about?

I'm sorry to put this here, no where else to think to go.  Just wondering what you thought about the Mormon History Association conference coming up next week?  When I first saw it being advertised I mistook it for the Fair Mormon conference.  But this is happening next week in Provo.  Maybe thinking of going or would love to have a way of listening to it.  Same as the Fair Mormon Conference.

I just am wondering why some who were banned are getting reinstated within a year...and my status has stayed for three years years (come August) for asking advice for how to deal with my Mother who had Alshiemers. (Now I have lost her...unable to use a thread to tell everyone) That is when I was told I could post threads for onlyt two a week at a time. I know that many are disappointed, but so am I...I just hope, I still have friends here, due to my outburst. Sadly if so, I will not hear from them...as I will be it is likely I will be banned. banned. In any case I love so many here, but each time I sign on I am reminded that to the leadership I am unwanted. It hurts to know that you are not welcome.My wife was the one who told me that is rude to remain where the mods don't want you. But I have done all I could to be forgiven and reinstated, but I know now that will never come. I have given my friends (I hope) to find me and get in touch. I hope to hear from them...if not I understand. By the way, my youngest married in the Atlanta Temple on Saturday. I adopted my oldest when she was one...she is my wife's daughter.. Making her and her Mother my own was the greatest thing I have ever done. So now after 40 years we will live al e for the first time. Pleas forgive any errors in this post...my diabetes have ruined my eyes, even with glasses. So be good, be safe and know you are loved. Mods, I am sorry for my rant...I am just bewildered. I will miss you all...I hope it does not come to that after 8 years of coming to know you. Also you are one of my favorite here, I am so sorry to disappoint you. God bless you dear sister. I wish I could take ot back...but I can't. If you are at LDS.NET, please let me know who you are, if I have not burned that bridge. Either way, God bless you. Edited by Pa Pa

Nothing...it was rude and rude to stay. My wife pointed out that not being able to fully be allowed to take part, that it was rude to stay. I truly love so many here after eight years...I pray they do not take it personally. I am just confused that I will ever be allowed to be allowed to be a full part of the site. I hope that I am not judged to harshly.. God's blessings be upon you all. I have never spoken ill upon any. Just bewildered at admins actions for these 3 years. But that is my cross to bare, not yours. Edited by Pa Pa
