Ah, so it was a total of three threads dedicated to it.
Good lord.

Something - possibly my security settings - stops me getting into Eratosphericals. This is most frustrating. It appears to perform the same function for the main forum as the car park does for a rough Essex boozer.

Erm, does anyone else get the impression Nemo doesn't like me very much? LOL.

David, lol. I assume you have the passcode? I don't know much about security settings; that might be for Staff to consider, I suppose.

Yeah, Nemo's problem is that he goes back to the old days when the Sphere focused on poetry and serious critiques on the poetry boards, not chatter-chatter-chatter.

Lol, perhaps this thread should be locked too.

I don't mind. I'm a happy bunny, or a happy guinea, maybe. Due to my status as a disabled person, I'm used to people finding fault with me. One rises above. It's the only way.

My finding fault with you has nothing to do with your status as a disabled person - it has everything to do with not letting the Sphere deteriorate into a chat-room. Locking the thread is an excellent suggestion.

Really? Those of us who are not disabled have no experience with people finding fault with us?

Michael, I actually tried hard not to chat on John Isbell's new thread earlier today. If you wish to complain about my conduct, Eratosphericals is the zone.

Roger, it's a spectrum. I've written about my experiences for The Mighty, as it happens, but I wouldn't think to post such things on the 'sphere.


Now, as per advice from someone I hold in high esteem, I'm not going to respond to any further comments on this thread that don't comprise congratulations. Anything else is off topic. Again, I don't mind if the thread is locked or even deleted. It's more than enough for me that the people I love are happy and proud of me <(:-)

Hi everyone,
It's 1.15am for me and I've just got into bed, writing this on my phone...
I'm aware that several issues need to be addressed here, which are in the throes of being discussed, but in view of the different time zones between Alex, the Moderators and me, our chats tend to take a while.
We'll get back to you asap, as the present disruption isn't what anyone wants.

Jayne
