Beautiful poem
The Wish to Be Generous All that I serve will die, all my delights,
the flesh kindled from my flesh, garden and field,
the silent lilies standing in the woods,
the woods, the hill, the whole earth, all
will burn in man's evil, or dwindle
in its own age. Let the world bring on me
the sleep of darkness without stars, so I may know
my little light taken from me into the seed
of the beginning and the end, so I may bow
to mystery, and take my stand on the earth
like a tree in a field, passing without haste
or regret toward what will be, my life
a patient willing descent into the grass. ~ Wendell Berry ~
(The Collected Poems, 1957-1982)

We'll have to see! Seems like things are loosening up a bit. I love your ***** sessions and they let that stay.
Me, I think centering is a most useful thing, and essential to this weight loss journey, let alone life in general.
Centering for the mods will also be a good thing.

When you started down this path, I bet you didn't see this as the end result did you ? You forced what you believed to be your idea of the perfect support forum etiquette. You pushed and shoved very hard for this forum to be what you wanted it to be.
The TOS has changed on a weekly basis, and the MODS have been forced to moderate mundane **** because of you, and your idea of what a support forum should look like. I'm betting they would like for OH to go back to the way it was before you joined.
I'm sure the MODS have been forced to take sides that they may have wished they didn't have to take. I can't imagine being a forum moderator is a popular or thankful position to have, but at least this board is exactly the way you wanted it. I'm betting that because of you Anne, the MODS may have strained and/or ended relationships with long time friends.
Anne, you will be the reason, that so many long time members of OH will lose contact with each other. You will be the reason so many valuable resources and important information will not be exchanged. You will be the reason so many pre ops will choose a dangerous surgery,follow the wrong surgery specific advice, and get butchered by a greedy, unskilled surgeon.

Thanks for the acknowledgement that I have been able to make a difference, Pumpkin, though it's not a difference you wanted to see.
I like that OH is providing and living by TOS that work for decency and respect and ethics. That is the basis for a decent civilization and workable culture. Anarchy sure doesn't work.
I'm genuinely sorry for your sense of loss. Change always causes such upheaval, and I think most people don't like it because of that. But it is sometimes necessary.
All I have asked for is that OH go by their original Terms Of Service and not allow the hate and the slandering. People are completely free to post under the agreement that we all sign in order to join this site, an agreement that has always been there but was not enforced.
As for the mods, they will have to speak for themselves. I think their job is a lot easier now, because the bottom line is clear.

Great post Pumpkin!
Anne- You have such a hard on for being a hall monitor and making people dislike you. You are the mental health professional, where does your DSM put you? Trust me even people who pretend to like you do not. Trust me, on your OH cruise people will be talking **** about you. I like most people, in most people I can find some redeeming qualities. You? Not so much.
So you have your friend mini brain and have had a few circle jerks between her and MM, but I gurantee if MM was not also in the position of highly hated here she wouldn't acknowledge you. You guys all are proof to the saying "The enemy of my enemy is my friend"
