| Dear Valued Our Spiritual Home Members
First off a warm welcome to all the NEW MEMBER’S here. It is NOTED that many have found a path here from another popular site. That is all well and good you are very welcomed here.
What “WE” as staff would like to address is WHILE Our Spiritual Home has and active and working Chat Room THAT IS NOT all this site is about. The Chat Room has always been an “ADDITION” to the sharing community we have here. It has never been an issue before for Staff here to have to bring to member’s attentions that IT’S A PART of the site NOT THE FULL SITE.
In saying that we welcome all to use the Chat Room but too we ask that contributions are made to the OVERALL value of the site.\
We as MEMBER’S here own the SITE the value of being full participating members - that mean’s replying to some posts or starting a YOUR CORNER here and sharing with other’s thoughts and ideas.
If there becomes issues where one’s are ONLY here because the other side DOES NOT have a Chat Room then we might have to look at access permissions being a bit stiffer.
Should anyone have any questions or comments please feel free to add them here.
Thank you in advance
Lynn Chat Room Mage | |

| Oh I hear that, laura ann! Thank you for saying it first!!!
The site where I was a member prior to coming here had a chat room, and there was some pressure (nothing burdening! just persistent) to participate in chat. I am much more articulate when I think about what I'm saying before it's said, believe me, and when there are several people talking at once I just get lost. So *shrug* I too prefer to stick with the forum rather than participate in chat. | |

| HELLO
NO one is to feel targeted here . We are simply trying to prevent an protential problem that can quickly take down a very good site is all. I have seen it happen the flow goes CHAT with the GOOD knowlegable members into small groups and the site looses valued posts as the discussion flows so easily in Chat at times.
WE are not targeting anyone just saying that the SITE is more than a Chat Room is all. There are some that post the minimum number of threads just to HIT Chat . That is not what any site is about.
I do have a passion for OSH I have never found such a warm and open feeling site and I have been asked to look at hundreds of sites.
This is a RARE site that is in growth and we as staff want to keep that coming forth.
ALL are welcome in Chat by all means....just want memeber as they come in to KNOW that the SITE is a lot of things .
We are blessed to have a Chat Room here to I hope make new friends..... want to keep the quality HIGH is all.

| I like both...I have never been officially diagnosed, but I'm sure I have ADD. I type in the forums and chat at the same time....all while playing solitaire. But if someone needs my undivided attention, they have it. I'm on dial up...so while one page loads, I'm off doing things on another page. lol | |

Lynn The qualities you list here are the exact reason I love this site. It is a RARE thing, and as this site grows, people are going to have to strive from all ends to maintain that rarity. I love this site, and am grateful for it....and new friends! | |

Poor people or ones who live in out of the way places must develop sense of humours | |

| ...and LOTS of patience! You two must be super patient people!!!
Earlier this year I actually bit the bullet and signed up - at an extra $10 per month - for better internet service. It's a step up from 'high speed', and I can actually watch streaming video on my computer now without having to wait for it to load first. I can hardly imagine having to go back to dial up. Think it would be really hard on my blood pressure! hee | |

| I have learned to CUSS in three languages seriously I do get very upset at times but I would rather get upset occasionally then to not have internet and human connections at all Kinda like sex...if you never have good sex you dont realize all you have been having is bad....I have never had good internet...even at work the puter is so old and the procesor so slow it is like having dial up most of the time. The people I work with are stagnate blind minded.. .and books are great ..I love them but the sharing of ideas, thoughts, feelings, and what if's are here. | |

| Hello One's seem to be misunderstanding a bit. THERE is no pressures here to praticipate in the Chat Room or to Post. What "WE" as members want is to keep OSH as it is the "RARE" place it is. To keep the persoanl feel it has, that comfort like a warm beverage after being out on a cold day. Too know that what we GROW here is not the norm out there. We as members know that ....but new one's coming in that might well have had negaitve outings on other sites migh not. "Making this my new home" comes to mind from one member it feels like a HOME here. Lynn | |

| I was in chat one day, but I guess at this moment in my life...I'm not really interested in it.
So - on that note...you won't find me in there. I'm more of a forum person than a chat type. I prefer one-one conversations because I can focus better. |

| sticking up for chat though sometimes people want answers or just need some1 to talk to i try to stay in there as much as i can if just to listen if not to cheer the mood of people so i shall indevour to make chat a light and fun atmosphere wether people join us or not is there choice but i wont so lightly condemn the personal touch chat can provide | |

| I don't think anyone's condemning chat, onlyme -- some of us just prefer the forum. Most of the time my brain doesn't work fast enough to have a conversation in chat, although my fingers seem able to type pretty fast! I think the point here was that those who participate only in chat are being invited and encouraged to also participate in the forum where the rest of us can get to know them better.
I'm glad you're available in chat for those who want or need someone to talk to in real time! | |
