Thanks for the welcome! Profile housekeeping has been done so here I am. Hopefully an extended stay is in order and not a short foray . On that note, I have see a few posts about instant posting, how does one go about receiving such a thing?

Welcome also. To get IP you need a period of good behaviour of posting. Its up to the discretion of the mods. Some people have been here for several months and dont have it. My partner in crime was only 4 weeks when she got it without asking. So my advice would be to post whenever you have the urge and start asking customer service very nicely after a month. Good luck in here.

Here I was looking for an out of the way button written in small-font "request instant posting". I'll be sure to send message from my angelic side then. In the meantime how long does it take a post to get approved? I've seen some people having issues with the conversation leaving them behind (That might be a bit of an exaggeration but enough to be annoying at least!)

So reverse imaging looks for a pic elsewhere...to see if it has been stolen. Correct? Can it also read the data embedded in the pic to tell you when it was taken? I am a bit new to this.
-

It pretty much tells you if that picture appears somewhere else on the internet and if so, where. So if you get a bunch of results searching someone's pics then it usually means they've taken them from somewhere (or maybe they're some kind of model/famous person). A quick look at where the pictures were found should be enough to figure out which!

2 ways to check if you have instant posting. When you press the post button, it will say either it has been posted or sent for approval. The other is if you can see the "Chillout Room" area at the bottom of the categories on full website. Not sure if they tell you after your IP request but maybe you can follow up on your ticket number.

Can you see the Chillout Lounge at the bottom of your forums page?Only posters with IP can see it. Mother way to check is to log off just after you post .Dont log back on,just check to see if your post has appeared.Q

If you express interest as a guest in a datefinder, it registers but the person with the datefinder cant see who it is. Wtf? The guest will think they are being overlooked. What should happen is the guest cant register unless they join.

particularly the men...because men are notorious for this. I speak from experience and now it's caught up to him, big time. If you have medical symptoms and they don't go away / get worse don't be a stubborn dickhead and just bloody ignore them. Sure most of the time it won't be serious but there are times it is - really serious - and you could possibly save your own life and save your family a whole lot of angst and grief if you don't leave it until it's too late.

this week has been one for bizarre comments and compliments (? not sure it was a compliment) First I was knocked back because I was in between waxing session and had regrowth of 1cm (you'd have to see it to understand it was not a lot of hair) but hey each to their own so whatever. This was by a guy I had already played with once before. Then I was called weird, sick and disgusting for expressing an interest in male on male action. Then I was told I look like the "other woman" apparently he was alluding to the fact that I looked sexy. Im not sure this is a compliment though. Lets see what next week brings.

Don't know if Obama would be bothered to say anything any more - he's been "shot down" too many times himself for trying to get gun reforms through - apart from the fact he'll be out soon enough anyway, so why bother ? I agree with your sentiment expressed - let them all bring their guns to functions - so if one starts shooting, they can all get on in it and leave nobody standing anymore - problem solved ! You'll probably find the NRA handing out guns at the door to promote self-protection. Something that really defies common sense in the good ol' with their constitutional rights to bear arms, and the current way of life. Back when the "right to bear arms" was introduced, that was the way of life to honestly protect yourself in the days of "wild west" and even before. Today we have grown into a modern society with completely different living conditions, and no longer have to worry about wildlife or native Americans coming into your house and possibly killing you (except in their imaginations) - why the fuck don't those stupid bastards wake up to themselves ?

I hadn't read up too much on it when I posted that and didn't realise it was linked to extremism. That said, it's still a lot easier to grab a gun and shoot up a club then to make the explosives without anyone finding out (not that that's super difficult either...). With that in mind I think my point still has some merit in this case in the sense that it's less likely to happen with explosives.

This amendment is irrelevant now, private USA citizens cannot hope to tackle the massive military machine of the USA - but back when it was framed the situation was vastly different. for the clarification. However, as you mention, it is still based on the old "us versus them" mentality, that would possibly had it's roots in the division between the north and the south, which still lingers today amongst certain elements of the populace, thereby 'justifying' keeping the now irrelevant laws still in place by law. But as mentioned , today we live in a completely different society, and you'd think that the more 'enlightened' members of society there would be able to understand that there is no longer a need to have a stash of military style weapons kept around the household, "just in case". Some mentalities just die hard.

I would gather with your years, you would have probably found out that kids can be a tremendous asset, and they can also be a tremendous pain. If you have more than one, chances are you will have kids that fall into either camp. I have three kids, I get on fantastically with the eldest (a daughter), and the other two have decided to leave me out of their lives. (son and daughter). As in life generally, you find that you just can't please 'em all. Not knowing the background of how you may or may not have informed your children of your current lifestyle, I won't make any general comment. But you know your own mind, and what suits your lifestyle, and in the end you've got to be happy with the person you are. Once you have reached that point, you will then find out which people will stand by you and understand you, because your own happiness will come through, and they should be happy or you too. Maybe your son will need some time to understand your stance in life. Kids, I've found out, take a long time to 'mature', so don't quite give up yet. Leave the door open for him to understand there is so much more in life than black and white, and maybe one day he will come to understand the choice you have made. He doesn't necessarily have to agree with it, so long as he understands that it is your choice to travel the path you have. Tall

It was my coming out that he felt maybe embarrassed or homophobic so decided to officially distance himself from me. And maybe a great opportunity to finally dig a grave for the $15k that he owed. He strangely ostricised my other brother who has supported me 100%. Can't choose your family....or neighbours.

Annie, the decisions that you have made are not whimsical...they are essential for you to find inner peace. I feel that those that can't understand that and don't respect you for having the strength to be who you are, have shown their own failings by lacking the maturity to appreciate the diversity that surrounds them. You go girl...and those that bring joy to your life will be right there with you. PS: Re: Ute. Maybe the universe is trying to tell you something.

And maybe a great opportunity to finally dig a grave for the $15k that he owed. He strangely ostricised my other brother who has supported me 100%. Can't choose your family....or neighbours. my previous posting, I take it that your son was of a relatively younger age when your ex explained to him what your tendencies were. That may also not have helped if he was not yet then at a mature enough state to fully grasp all the complexities of life. Also, did your ex "colour" the experience for him ? Have had that experienced personally too, and know how that can poorly influence the subject (hence the problems with my 2 younger ones). Peer pressure too will of course possibly have been a consideration during his time of discovery, and perhaps influenced his understanding. As I said, let him mature to understand there is much, much more in life, and leave the door open to him. As long as he knows that it is for him to walk through, you have done what you can to let him know there is still space in your life for him. Depending on his own maturity, it can be sooner, later, or perhaps, never - but you can rest assured at least you have let him know there is no barrier on your part. All the best with whatever way it turns out for the both of you. Tall

I am guessing that you mean that it is time for a change. Remember, the universe doesn't just give you hints. It also listens. Be very clear about what you want and you may be surprised by what materialises. For example, I got to a point where I really wanted out of my marriage, just because there were things that I wanted to do that I would never be able to do while I was with her. Otherwise, we had a great relationship, so I couldn't justify ever leaving her. I used to ponder how it could end, without anybody getting hurt and I could see no possible way. But the universe heard me and the unthinkable happened. She left me...and it had nothing to do with me. Noone was more surprised than her when she discovered lesbianism. It was perfect. Win win. I didn't lose the close relationship that we had, instead I gain a new close friend in her girlfriend. (Absolutely platonic in both cases). So Woohoo. I got exactly what I wanted...in a way that could never have imagined. But my work was keeping me to time poor to make much of my new found freedom, so I started pondering what I wanted in terms of work/life balance and Whammo...that job drew to a close (as construction does) and my new position is everything that I wanted. Plenty of time off, cashed up and zero ties. I do whatever I like now (on my R&R). Fly where ever I want, on a whim, engage in whatever activities tickle my fancy at the time. It is just where I wanted to be at this point. I am loving it. The moral of the story is to focus on what you want and the universe will listen. BTW: The universe is a bit deaf and doesn't always get the whole message, so don't say "I hate blue" because blue is all you will get. Say "I love red" and you will get red. 👍

Quoting 'CandyDelicious' What's with the essays and lectures that some people write on here. Does anyone read them? I might suppose I am one of the people you describe without specific identification... If so, I would simply suggest that not everything may be adequately articulated in 140 characters or less. Further, whilst someone might take time to think and to write at some length in effort to more fully articulate a point of view, or to relate an experience, or share some other insight, it should go without saying, you are not obliged to read it, agree with it, or to offer any form of critique. Personally, I do welcome such interaction and exchange of ideas, but I do not compel anyone to participate, nor do I subject anyone to formal assessment! I'm not a qualified instructor, but I'll bet I could teach you a lesson ; ) I just hope your criticism is not taken as a call to censorship. That would inspire me to write at length.

Did I say something about censorship? People write what they like, as do I - I was just wondering how many people actually read their very long replies. I don't recall reading a post by you before so not sure what you may write. Sure you can't always convey your POV in a few sentences but some people go over and beyond with their responses. Where do they find the time I wonder? I also am a bit surprised at the over sharing of some. Then people are surprised when people have made certain assumptions about them or getting shirty if you ask a question.

I agree with your observation of oversharing. Definitely. In my post, I simply suggest you might choose not to read those posts/posters you've learnt do nothing much to further your knowledge or your better interests. Certainly, there are some I avoid now 'cause I fear they might "corrupt my young ears!" The mental images can be hard to shake. I have made some lengthy posts on a variety of topics/threads. I hope my contributions add something worthwhile to these various discussions. I am aware there will be many without the time, patience, or curiosity to read long passages, but I hope that would not prompt any of those individuals to call an end to people making those longer contributions to the topic at hand. I should point out too, I do not seek to be in any way sanctimonious in my posts; rather, I seek to share some of the knowledge I've acquired on my journey up the old "Calf Path". As per my handle in this forum (and my profile blurb), I've been making a study of things for some time now in search of some calm and peace of mind. I've been reading a bit of Philosophy (amongst other things) recently. At present I've been pondering the work of the Stoics - particularly Seneca. I'm finding it pretty interesting, and I've quoted him in a few posts. "How is it that you are advising me?” you say. “Have you already advised yourself? Have you got yourself straightened out? Is that why you have the time to correct others?” I am not such a hypocrite as to offer cures while I am sick myself. No, I am lying in the same ward, as it were, conversing with you about our common ailment and sharing remedies. So listen to me as if I were talking to myself: I am letting you into my private room and giving myself instructions while you are standing by" - Seneca, Letters 27.1?

Perhaps i am one of those that you refer to as oversharing? I spent nearly nearly 40 years not sharing anything. Part of my mental healing is sharing. So i can do that here and it has turned my mental illness around and made a huge diff to my life. I probably overshared with this. Do l care? I dont give a fuck and feel great in return. How goods that?

And why would I bother to do that Q? Because I have shared a few things about myself? Not really sure where you are coming from at all really. I am basically a tourist here, I flit in and out and I rarely follow any post, and usually forget what threads I have contributed too. My question was, do people read the particularly long posts. All I was expecting was a yes I do or no I don't. Anything else I most likely havent read. Soz. No time.

I am not slamming anyone for over sharing really. But some people really spill deeply personally things on here. I suppose Annie you have as well. Sometimes I read things and wonder if people will one day regret revealing so much of themselves? the funny think is when someone gets narky about something they themselves have written in the past. I don't get that. If you project a certain persona don't get upset when people believe your publicity. You know? And no, that isn't referring to you Annie, or most other regulars. It's more of a general observation. It's an observation before someone has another go at me.

What about if someone sees another's vulnerabilities - which some people openly write about on the forum - and use it to manipulate that person? It could happen.

We all do have different understanding of oversharing. What constitute oversharing for you? Just curious. thanks.

I was merely explaining just how you can find out what posts you have replied to as per your previous post on this thread. In the future ,because of your rude response to me I won't bother trying to be helpful. Q

Over sharing was probably not the right words. I was talking about deeply personal issues, problems, discussing families or divorces and how that reveals a person's vulnerabilities. I am sure some are more open and honest on here than they would be with people in their RL.

But I didn't ask that? I am still confused about why I would do that?. Maybe you have me mixed up with someone else?

Quoting 'AnnieWhichway' Perhaps i am one of those that you refer to as oversharing? I spent nearly nearly 40 years not sharing anything. Part of my mental healing is sharing. So i can do that here and it has turned my mental illness around and made a huge diff to my life. I probably overshared with this. Do l care? I dont give a fuck and feel great in return. How goods that? For the purpose of clarity (in light of some things I suspect you may have read into some of my own posts previously), I should like to restate/reword a couple of points and see if it helps set your mind at ease. For example, in a thread pertaining to someone's use of the term "yuck", I made some points which I now suspect may have been open to misinterpretation. I hope this is not the case because I quite deliberately seek to be clear in my use of language. Specifically, I made something of a personal confession concerning homophobia. I declared I would consider myself a "recovering Homophobe" and I stated some of the reasons why. In that post, I did not recount much of any of the myriad tales that helped form that view. For example, a fifteen year old class mate who committed suicide after having been raped by a grown man (we had all been led to believe was someone to look up to), and had subsequently been severely bullied by other lads when the story became known. Other lads were assaulted in that same institution by yet other men. Having been subjected to the unwelcome attention of some of the very same men, I was always on high alert. (My Dad started teaching me to Box at age five, and at age nine I pursued this further through the Police Boys Club. Actually, I was sent there to get out of Dad's hair while he was engaged in study of an evening and my Mum was at work. I got pretty handy with my fists and became known as one not to shy away from a scrap. In hindsight (no pun intended) this is likely the sole reason none those men did press further with their attempts with me). As I've said, the men I have described were supposedly upstanding members of society who tended to not give overt sign of their truly predatory nature. As I see it, the biggest issue here is not so much that those men are/were gay. The true problem is that they were highly deceitful liars and paedophiles who used their positions of employment to gain access to children and young adults who did not give consent to the sexual predations they were subjected to. Whilst I have found some of your posts somewhat confronting (oversharing), for the most part I have found you quite entertaining to read. Those aspects of your posts I've considered TMI, I have simply skimmed past. Problem solved. I would seek to neither censor nor censure. As long as you're not interfering with children or forcing yourself on anyone against their objections, I couldn't give two hoots what you and any other consenting adult choose to do with your genitalia. I would apply that principle to people of either gender, and of any sexual persuasion. It's not any of my business. I do not need to know, and I do not particularly care to know. I am aware there is a vast array of different people who make use of this site, and I know I am free to choose whether to participate. This includes the reading of any post someone may choose to share. I too have enjoyed sharing some of my experiences via the forum in this site. I know people won't necessarily appreciate my contributions. I don't see how that should be any obstacle to anyone else's enjoyment of this site. Whilst we quite obviously have some different knowledge, experience, and preferences, I'd still have a Beer and a game of Pool with you (or should I make that a Shandy?!)
