yes, I would
> > > a large influx of new posters could be disruptive. Do you think there should be some sort of limitation?phasing them in seems like a good strategy, just not all at once, we can get to know them hopefully a little at a time
green flags remind me of little surrender flags

I'm sorry. I don't think of myself as paranoid, but this whole situation just doesn't sit right with me. I know it's just me being me, but I don't trust the boards already. Good-bye. Love to all.

I of course honor your decision to do what you need to do to keep yourself safe.
But it's early days yet. We don't know how it will play out, and we don't know which boards will be affected or how.
There are times when I frankly don't feel safe at Babble for one reason or another. Where I back off and don't post anything that exposes me too much. But even then I often find it useful to stay close and concentrate on the support and bonds I've developed here. Even if it isn't terribly deep or revealing.
However, that's me, and I totally understand if it doesn't suit your needs. I'll miss you, and welcome you back if and when you feel that Babble can be helpful to you again.

JohnnyB,
You wrote,[...eh?...]
I am unsure as to what meaning you are wanting to have understood here in your use of {eh}.
Some generally accepted meanings of the word, {eh}, is in a surprise or sometimes to indicate{doubt}, or something else.
If you could declare as to what you are wanting {eh} to mean here, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.

Lou..it could just mean the poster might be a Canadian. We're famous for putting eh's at the end of some of our sentences!

Justherself54,
Does that also include French Canadians? If there are any French Canadians reading this, could you verify or not?

Sorry, but I think I want to vomit at the idea of this study of yours. My T asked if I couldn't have my posts deleted and say I don't want to participate in the study. HAH. I know you would never do that. So, I will just go vomit and make sure I tell very one I know that U of C has one crap Dept. of Psychiatry. Course most people in the Chicago area already know that.

Please don't post anything that could lead others (such as members of the U of C Dept. of Psychiatry) to feel put down.
But please don't take this personally, either, this doesn't mean I don't like you or think you're a bad person.
More information about posting policies and tips on alternative ways to express oneself are/is in the FAQ:

http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#enforceFollow-ups regarding these issues, as well as replies to the above post, should of course themselves be civil.
Thanks,
Bob

Bob, before I hear about details such as questionaires, I need to know WHAT THE STUDY IS ABOUT, Then I can make an informed choice about whether I want to post or not during the time the research is going on, and whether I want to answer questionaires.
