    Default who reads the forum first ????

    i've been watching the real time roll in and sometimes they come at you quite fast...so is there someone (moderator or whoever) that is sitting there reading this stuff before it hits the 'waves' or do we see it too and then if there is something 'not quite right' it will be pulled....

    how does this work????

    I'm here as often as possible. Many members are helpful and will use the little "report a post" button on the bottom left of posts if they see something I haven't.

    oops forgot to answer the other part...posts are instantly posted and not moderated beforehand.

    This button, so you know where it is and ever want/need to use it.
    I always appreciate the help. Sometimes I'm working or with the kids and don't see things for a while.

    I rarely see objectionable posts, although we have had a couple.

    Shhhh... behave... Sara is here!!!!

    Actually, there have been some posts pulled because they are out and out Like "Buy 3 cell phones & get 1 free"

    The village is... well... a village. It takes all kinds to build a village and I'm glad to say we are one (currently) without an idiot.

    What I like about FV is Sara (& Gabe) allow us to say whatever we want, providing it isn't flaming a specific member. You have to have thicker skin at times - there is no ignore button for real life, but there IS one here.

    Once upon a time, the Village had a hut tucked away for debates... it burnt down (shhh... don't mention universal health care unless you can out run the mobs from all sides)
    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

    Sara is the thought police!!!
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    Uh oh! I heard Rush say yesterday that we are living out the book 1984 by George Orwell (I recognize the reference). Um, yeah, I haven't hear anything about being forced to wear jumpsuits to work.

    Watch out!
