Good idea. I'll try.

Can something be done about PG. His constant use of BOY is disgusting and racist. I'm glad that Thelonious doesn't respond to the BS, although I wish that wouldn't provoke him so.

FDR and V,
I started the "Boy" stuff by refering to PGOP this way. It was meant to be demeaning and insulting to him.
I have also specifically requested that he call me "Boy", it is perhaps the only thing he has ever done upon my request.

I do not disagree with you. It may be racist and disgusting. But if anyone... then I am at fault here.

(I cannot be sure, but in the event that someone is considering my feelings, please do not worry. People, of PGOP's stature can call me much worse than "Boy" and I will not be offended in any way)

Re: FORUM System Questions

-V-, would you please add a sticky poll in the Voting Booth for Cynthia McKinney nominated by the Green Party for President of the United States and Rosa Clemente nominated by the Green Party for Vice President of the United States and move Obama posts 81 -85 inclusive there?

Re: FORUM System Questions

Hi, -V-. Thank you, but I don't know how to do that. That's why I asked if you would do it.

Re: FORUM System Questions

The option to include a poll appears at the bottom after you click the "new thread" button. Try the FAQ if you need further help with it.

Re: FORUM System Questions

Hi, -V-. I meant to post the following thread in Books, which I have now, but mistakenly posted it Film, "Free Internet Books to Read About How to Prepare for, Induce & Experience Out-of-Body Travel & Some of What Marylynn Hughes Has Seen & Knows from Her Own OBEs."

Would you please delete that thread from Film?

Thank you, -V-, for doing that and all the other good things you do too!

Re: FORUM System Questions

Hey ~V~

Is there any way the edit option on our posts can be made accessible at all times? Nothing galls me more than to make a post, then be in the process of cleaning up and have the time run out.

Or to see something I felt I had proofed, contain spelling or grammatical errors and not being able to fix them because it is beyond the time limit.

Thanks

Re: FORUM System Questions

well, a short edit period is standard on forums because otherwise it could cause confusion if someone replies to something you've written but changed after they read it.

i have extended the edit period to 60 minutes.
