I feel kind of sorry for the deputies (recently), personally.
It's an awful lot to expect from people who originally came to this site for support.
And while Dr. Bob takes off from this site, it doesn't seem to reduce from its quality. Eventually, however, even millstones wear down from grinding too much corn.
I miss Dr. Bob. I've told him so, and he said he misses Babblers too. Life goes on etc etc. BUT what are the implications for psycho-babble if something malicious should happen and only a few deputies are supposed to take care of the whole shebang? What happens to a deputy when deputizing endangers their mental health and they need support?
I've been engaged in pbabble since April. Dr. Bob was on a lot around the time of the APA conference, but particularly in August, there has been somewhat little presence.
In my mind, the deputies take over this leadership vacuum. Dinah and gg and AMel take on a new status that is inversely proportional to Dr. Bob's input.
I guess I just wished it were easier, and that the owner would stop in a say "hi" every once in a while. "how's your food tonight? Is everything okay? Would you mind picking up your social drinking from my Faith Board? thanks... etc.

and I know Bob's around. he's just too busy. What's up?
