Internet's first get-out-of-debt community - 116,000 members

I believe this community is where we are suppose to help one another and lift each other up. We are suppose to be able to learn from each other's experiences and advice. I dont believe anyone in here has a "motive" except to become debt-free. All comments should be welcome in here no matter how insignificant it may appear to one's eye. Whether its just a quick thank you or I agree. Just being able to be part of something should be enough.

I dont feel that we should be questioned by others the reason for us being here. So I will start about why I am here.

I am here because I seek the advice from everyone and I am willing to offer advice about things I have knowledge in, or my own experiences. Coming on here everyday is a way to get educated and to educate others. I am also here because I want to succeed in being debt free but this community is like a support group for me. I dont feel that anyone has a "motive" for their posts or replies or reason for being here. For those that are truly honest and wanting to be part of the community.

I just felt that needed to be said. Because negativity of that nature will drive the ones that really want to be a part of the community away. Laughing

That is a good point Rhonda!Let me explain why I am here I have been through alot of things good bad and think and thin I thought I really found a place where people cared.Like you said a support group I am not negative to any one or their forums but it seems like I don't fit in around here.I am also here to talk about debt and things in that nature!Excuse me to most if my punctuation is not used sometimes or my capitilization I am here to get advice and give it.Negativaty is not the key here and why most find that amusing it does hurt other people's feelings!I have no motive or at least not try to protray one, but that really gets to me when someone is picking at me!I have been through alot and mostly all of us has from debt, to crisis ,to struggles, we all learn from our mistakes and thats why most of us are here to express what we have been through!And not to criticize one another but to give a helping hand thats really all I have to say. And to tell you,the community I have no motive!I am just trying to fit in

Ch, The only thing that I can say is to keep posting.Keep being a part of the community. You will find through out the posting that not everyone is going to agree with you and some may even critique you. Use that as a way to become stronger.

I have learned through experience that you have to be confident in you and the rest will follow. As long as you hold your head high, no one can bring you down!

ch, I feel very badly that you took my suggestion as being mean. That was never my intent. Once again, I apologize. Having said that, I do find your posts alot easier to read since you began using some punctuation and capitalization.

ttt,
Thank you for your concern and i'm not just saying you ! I took your advice and did what you asked but the forum that I wrote is really not about you I am addressing to those who really think I have a motive(they know who they are)and I beleive we all should give advice but like I said before not in a negative way you know?Because too much of us have been through alot and not to mention some of us are still at the bottom trying to get back at the top!I feel if we all work together to help each other then it will be better for the community.And you did help me so please don't think I addressed this to you i'm sorry if I made it seem like you but it is really not!

And please those who have negative thoughts and animosity agaisnt others should try to work the differences out like me and ttt she told me she couldn't really read or understand what I said !But to others there is no motive for anyone being here we are here for our own reasons not to hurt each others feelings!This has been a positive community we try to encourage others and inspire them not hurt each others feelings keep in mind people have feelings it when ttt said something I took her advice that I needed to improve in my capitilization and punctuation but others are rude so please iI do have feelings!

ch:

I hope you're not mad at me for requesting better punctuation. You seem to have been offended (I guess reasonably so...) --but this was not my goal.

I, like you, would like to keep this community friendly, clean, professional, and to-the-point. I think that everyone can agree to that. I understand that some people speak differently (or have different punctuation habits). What I was trying to say is that since the only form of communication on this forum is via text (typing), there should be a bit more effort put into spelling and grammar for the beneift of others.

If you're upset with me (or think that I am upset with you) I apologize and hope there are no hard feelings.

Ch, no one here is really rude, with the exception of the ones who blantantly bash the whole boards...(see other threads). It IS hard to read your posts sometimes, although they are highly informative in some cases. We'd love to read them, but if you could use punctuation and capitals, it would be a bit easier.

And if soemone speaks a foreign language, hey, I know French and Italian fluently Cool

I'll vouch for that, crypto---a friendly, professional, direct forum.

Reading these posts, I feel that it is a perfect bliss joining our hands together and building up this strong community. We definitely want to add many more valuable people in this group so that we are strong enough to face any kind of situations in the future.

Let us provide the best services that can be offered to our visitors so that they get encouraged and somewhat desperate to join this group. I wrote few days back a phrase like this:

United we stand..Divided we fall

We feel stronger today just because we have been with each other in all the times needed. And we should continue it with the same passionate feeling.

Regards
Roxette

I enjoyed reading everyone's responses. It feels great to know that we all belong to a community that truly cares. It is also great coming on here every night and "seeing" the same familiar voices Smile

!

I think as long as we continue to work together we can grow as a whole.

My friends say that they meet each other only once in a week, most probably Sunday. And they enjoy being together. I respond to them that I meet my friends' everyday and that too from all over the United States. Imagine how wonderful it is to be in touch with each one of us.

It is an absolute wonderful feeling! Smile

Okay I have been working on my capitilization and punctuation to please!But the only thing I am saying is I have no ''motive'' of being here I am here because I enjoy reading and learning something new everyday and helping others help them selves but when others are directing something in a negative way that really hurts we should all be postive about how we feel if someone is not doing right!Not addressing as a ''motive'' because I feel no one has a motive we are all here for the same reason and we are all in some kind of debt!We teach others also learn from others as well!

And I am blessed that I have made it this far and that I have people who care!Like this support group!

Ch,

It is great to hear that you are taking the advice of the other community members. We all know that advice means well, but sometimes it is how it is put into words that can hurt someone.
