I seem to be losing posts....

[Karen]

Okay folks, here's the lowdown.

"Casper and Kitty" has left. That is why their posts say "Former User."

"Lut" deleted many of her posts, which is when the numbers went down for a lot of people. If she had started a thread and then deleted it, all the posts within that thread get deleted, too.

Lut has now left Pet Talk. She requested that we delete her as a user, and we have done so.

Spencerthelion was banned. He is gone from Pet Talk. His post count should be of no concern.

That explains, for the most part, the decline in the number of posts by people. But the post counts are not always accurate anyway, so people shouldn;t fret one way or the other.

If I ever delete a thread you started, I will contact you.

No one should ever ask another to leave Pet Talk. No one should another mean names. The membership here is up to Paul and I, and if you have concerns about someone, you should contact one of us privately. A number of you have done so, we have quickly rid the board of trolls in several instances thanks to quick PMs from some of you. Thanks.

Be nice.

Be nice.

Be nice.

We respect you all for who you are, and hope you can treat each other with respect as well. We are all here because we love animals. That gives us more in common with each other than with most "other" people in the world - that's a good thing!

Joxer says - enough of this bickering - lets get back to being friends.

[Cataholic]

OK>>>I am DONE being mean for at least 90 days. I hereby give everyone the right to call me on it (like you don't already).

Moving on to other topics...why did we lose Lut and Casper and Kitty? What happened? And, don't say it was all my fault, either.

And, tell Joxer to come on over here a little closer to tell me that! I am not scared of Joxer AT ALL...ok...maybe I am a little...he looks kinda mean there.

Joxer looks like he is preaching a sermon, and getting really loud with it!!

I think we all best do what Joxer says! He looks pretty powerful to me.

Does anyone know what happened to Lut?

[Barbara]

I can't help but feeling shocked.

Last year, Lut's cats had opened a hotel and most of us had fun there. I considered them to be close friends to my cats.

She took part in the Christmas card exchange.

I even created a second identity for me so that Inka could answer when her mom didn't know where she was (our kitties were travelling so much...).

She was a member we all loved and cared for.

I just can't understand.

Sorry for sounding mixed up.

[Edwina's Secretary]

I too am shocked. I was so fond of Lut...and Niina too. I had even thought of surprising her last year when she was going to go to California. I don't know what to think!

[Karen]

I am PMing people with Lut's explanation, inquire that way if you want.

[bluekat]

I didn't know Lut and Niina left! I'm really shocked too...

Karen- could you pm her explanation to me too if you could? I would like to know what happened

[Felicia's Mom]

I too am shocked that Lut left Pet Talk. Karen, would you PM me with a reason why this happened?

[RubyMutt]

Karen, if you wouldn't mind, will you PM me as well? I had noticed that Lut hadn't posted in awhile, but didn't know she left completely. This really saddens me, she's such a kind person

[Kfamr]

I want to know what happened to Lut, as well as Niina. They were both very big members of our community. I don't travel to the cat said as often, but I do every now and then. I may have missed a few things that happened.

Karen, could you fill me in by PM or E-mail? Thanks.

[trayi52]

Well I have been wondering about that myself. I wish she hadn't have left. If possible please pm me and let me know too.

I always enjoyed all her posts, I am not worried about my post. That doesn't bother me in the least, as I never look at them anyway.

I do, however notice and feel the loss of a good member leaving, or just taking a break.

I hope she is ok. Sorry that she left. We will miss her.
