Hiya Kelda!
Same here. E&J will always be in my heart, but now I think I keep coming to BetterMost to connect with my kindred BBM pen-pals. Well, seeing the occassional picture of Jake and Heath posted doesn't hurt either!
;) David

Pictures of jake are never a bad thing in my book david!! and heath.. well put it this way I wouldn't throw him outta bed either! However, I would be likely to tie Jake to the bed... not heath.. I'd let him run off back to Michelle!
Aussie Chris:
Hi there everyone. If I was to answer this question a few weeks ago, the answer would have been that I was leaving. Actually no, it wouldn't have be an answer at all because I wouldn't have the words to say so, or the courage. You see, like many others around the world (seemingly) I fell into an emotional black hole a few weeks ago, and with complete sincerity I can say that I was convinced that I wouldn't make it back. The plan was simple; I would just slip quietly into obscurity.
But before you jump to any conclusions, I say to you now that I'm not leaving. I also want to reassure you that the problems that I have been facing have not been related to BetterMost, and especially not the very public "this place has changed so I'm leaving" announcements that certain members felt that the rest of us needed to hear. Well to borrow a common English expression: "Bollocks"! In fact I'm very annoyed that they would be so selfish. I loved them more than they will (now) ever know, but they put their own self-important grand-standing above everyone else's feelings, labelled themselves victims of a cruel world, and then fell on their own swords. I know they were hurting, but that's no reason to take the rest of us down with them. To them and anyone who takes their lead I say: shame on you.
There is only one reason that I write all this tonight and that is to plead with you all, and through you, to everyone that you encounter on this site, if you think that it's time to leave, think about carefully (to be sure) but if you must go, then go in peace and don't let the door swing shut and hit you on the arse as you leave. We have a responsibility, just by being here, to be above all that shit, and I for one don't care to see anyone using this community as a tool for their martyrdom.
All the best, Chris.
P.S. Please excuse my language and strong feelings on the issue.

Very well put, Chris. My sentiments exactly. :-\

No - no excuses needed, so no excuses to you, from me, for you, for anyone... No excuses required here. Well put I think. I still think this is a place where we are tyring out our best selves, and sometimes we do better than others, but the intention is still there.
