hey all -

just a reminder that DailyStrength folks continue to monitor this board for problems.

i'm not the only one who's been watching this board...but we've deleted posts that attacked a specific member, posts that displayed personal information and posts that promoted commercial products.

just fyi...we're still here. i'm happy to see that folks are once again supporting each other, and we'll be satisfied that things are once again 'good' on this board when the discussions are again totally focused on depression and how we all can overcome it.

lots of different comments in here...i'll just keep it simple by saying that 99.9% of what's posted here is just fine, and we're hoping to step back soon and leave things be. you're all adults, and once cooler heads have prevailed, which appears to be happening, we'll be less active.

as i've said before, we're working on a variety of new tools to improve privacy and decrease abuse...stay tuned.

Doug,
Just a suggestion, but you may want to address this issue at hand and how to handle such threats to the younger members and the children and grandchildren of the older members. It truly is a frightening thought that a predator may be among us and a proper protocol may be a calming effect! Otherwise...keep up the great work...hope you are well and God bless!!!

I think it is wonderful that you are here and monitoring the boards. I came here in september. This was a great place. Since December it started going down hill fast. I see that monitoring is bringing it back to what it used to be. BRAVO!

Thanks a billion, Doug.....I'm still not feeling real safe here at DS, but this notice helps nudge me back towards wanting to re-join the depression site.
