You are cool like the breeze.

Thanks Steelers!!! I'm gelling....

Dare I say...............gellin like a.....................felon?

Oh boy, that last one got me, Steelers! LOL

IS THIS FOR REAL? WHO ARE YOU?

Is what for real? The original post?

Ok....Just to let you guys in and some info that is missing that may have confused the thread.Someone come on here using my nic with an ugly addage to bash people including BEAUTY and myself.I was a mulitpul substance abuser incuding METH,COCAIN,any kind of pills I could get my hands on and was a bigtime DRUNK!!!Some stories sound to good to be true I admit.NOONR knows until they have walked the "trip" arm and arm with that person ad seen every move they made. I have been free of ALL my vices for 2 years now and did it on my own(with the help of GOD).My story is so unbelievable to tell because nobody would believe it happened.MANT treads in this post has been deleted because that person told me to stick a meth pipe into my 18yr olds private part nd called me ugly names.As far as a felon being accepted into the services it can happen te a judges orders as well as the service they are trying to enter.It happens all the time.I know this because my dad was former millitary and had to deal with those types of cases.Time lines are kinda screwie but I believe this girl and feel that she has a lot to offer people in her situaion.She can give these people hope.
The U.S. has done resurch on meth users and oly 6% recover with treatment.My husband and I did it wih no rehab.Only prayer and GOD's will.It is an everyday fight.But it CAN be done.My exhubby had a $5,000.00 a week cocain habbit and I chose to leave him because I saw our lives going nowhere.We clean for ove 11 years until I fell into the drinking seen and then came the pills and wala...METH.If you can break the cycle and have the will to commit to a clean life and live for yourself first, then the happiness and joy of the Clean Life will be enough to live happy and serving the Higher Power that held my hand throught it all(whom I never thought HE was there) and Nothing,I mean NOTHING can put you back there.I tried to use this site to help get mine and my husband's debt problem cleand up and found tooo many people working against each other.I found that it was not productive enough for me to come back. I am a strong person for all I have been through and did not take the bashing that was dished to me to heart until he used my helpless daughters to insult me and try to cause more harm.I told vikas that I was sorry for keeping this thread going with all the trahs he was dealing but it was to get someone to acknoledge that it was going on.I also applolgised to him because if a new comer were to read it maybe to would run them off thinking that this was a trash talk convo site and was actualy not put here to help people with debt problems. I choose to not come bach here for help nor do I intend to tell other people (good or bad) to use this site in hopes that they are not treated as I was be it by a member or a guest. It should not have taken over 18 hours for someone to clear that problem up.I know I have only been here a few times since 8/06 but I did get help from BEAUTY, and Jason deleted as much as he seen.Vikas cleard a few also and there have been appologies.I thank you for that.I just hope you have not lost other people while the obsinity was taking place.Hope noone is hurt. God bless you all and thank you for your time. Gina R Green aka minkeye_ aka mink

ps Hope everyone has much joy and love on the Happy Day of the birth of my LORD JESUS CHRIST! God bless and wishing all the most wonderful life.

Since this is a community forum people are allowed to post whatever they wish as far as expressing their feelings. This is not to say that it is RIGHT or that they will not be DELETED or taken to task for being abusive or using foul language. Its just that because of that some things cannot be helped or taken care of immediately.

I believe that the regular posting members on here would agree that undesirable postings (on occasion) are to be expected. But in no way will they be tolerated and in no way will someone be allowed to abuse another. This is not what we are here for.

Beauty that is indeed an amzing story, somewhat similar to mine when it came to us getting our acts together, meeting husbands, and collections jobs. I often feel the same as you, like the bad collectors are making fools of us and the effect they have on their debtors gives them a generalized idea of all collectors that makes our duty all the more difficult.

Just so everyone know . . . . I have an ex who got arrested. He was convicted and sentanced to 3 years. He was able to get into a program called "boot camp" and got time knocked off his sentance. Most states have this for non violent offenders. It was actually called boot camp in court. It doesn't have anything to do with the armed forces, it's just called boot camp. That is what Beauty was talking about in reference to boot camp. It's not a lie, it's just calling it by another name.

Goudah--My uncle's attorney tried to get the boot camp for him when he got into trouble a few years back.

Right, so it is possible . . . . I just don't think it's fair to jump on someone and call them a liar without even asking what it was they meant. A lot of rude things have been said about a very helpful person and it's just not right.

I'm am going to add my opinion here, it isn't popular, but it is a public forum. The rude comments go both ways. This drama needs to stop. Period. This is a debt forum.

I totally agree with you. It takes 2 to fight. You are both responsible.

As I said in another post, we are here to help each other, not bring each other down.

I agree the drama needs to stop. I suggest in the future that if you don't believe someones personal story, just keep it to yourself. Some people's stories are unbelievable, but they might be true. Unless you know for a fact that they are lying just keep it to yourself.

If they are deliberatly trying to mislead people about debt related issues I'm all for calling them out, but personal life is their personal life. If they choose to share they shoudln't be called liars.

You know what, this forum has really stooped to a new low in my opinion. I really don't care to return. It seems lately that the biggest topics are involving people's drug use and criminal convictions. I came to this site for help and advice with my debt related issues and it was great. It really has changed focus recently. I will look for a new one where the focus is cosistent.

Please don't go, Steelers. You have helped a lot of people here, and it would be a shame. You would truly be missed.

I am publicly going to say what I really think of this mess. IT IS PATHETIC. This forum was created to give advice and support to those seeking assistance with debt related matters. I honestly feel it has turned into some type of crack head haven for convicted felons seeking some type of forgiveness and Kudos. And DO NOT JUDGE ME, I workd daily with addicts and VIOLENT offenders who do not behave like this and are NOT attention seeking like this. This topic should end. So somebody did crack, cocain, pot, whatever. What does that have to do with the next person's debt issue? And you really should post such personal issues on the net anyways, you are only setting yourself up to become angry when somebody posts something that offends you and they don't really want to hear this topic. I am DONE. Say what you will.

ok..everything that needs to be said has been said.
This has gotten ugly and out of hand.

I am locking this thread now. Any problems with that, pm me.
