I agree, as I said in another reply, dont complain unless you have some solutions. How can you expect other people to come up with solutions unless you cant think of any yourself. Thanks great post!  |

1st of all what is so interesting about reading your own story and as a member you can NEVER make everyone happy...even as an ADMIN...you can never satisfy everyone.  |

HeyHeyPaula, you have put what I have been thinking into words! I've read 4 posts about the old USM already and I'm kind of suprised. I agree with you, if people think USM has changed then do something about it to make it better and stop complaining! :) I think USM is great no matter what.  |

I second that. I have been here for a lil over two years and I see nothing wrong with USM, so maybe its not like it was in the past <I wouldnt know> but dewling in the past is not kewl look forward to the future and make everyone moment count.  |

Not that I don't like to write because I really do but one person can't make it all better.  |

Change yourselves? Why? If you have to change yourself to be right or whatever then...noone will ever see the real you.  |

And Sarg is not a good thing. That's what we use to call my old boss at work and she got fired for being too pushy.  |

OK. The reason I am commenting so much to this post is because I posted about how USm has changed...like...10 mins ago or more. I don't see it as whining. People just get all hateful if you state your opinion. I was just telling how I felt it had changed. It is not whining...lol...but I know as this post says...I'm not being singled out :-)  |

you don't have to change, just act accordingly...you know...at school you'd be suspended for wearing a bikini top or carrying a knofe...at USM, you have to directly and continuously offend a member or group of members. You can share opinions, but not bash those who think differently. You can pick your nose, just not your friend's nose...get it...as for Sarg...we have an Aunt we lovingly refer to as Sarge because she'll set you straight telling you like it is...and keeps things in order even though no one really ever appointed her to do so. A very respectful nickname in my opinion...but see, it's not the same opinion you have, Freaq and that doesn't faze me one bit. That's the secret honor code at USM...RESPECT  |

HEY HEY PAULA .... I agree with you 110% and I hope this is considered sucking up or kissing butt ---- People moan and complain but they come back everyday - there must be something good about USM....... you can never make people happy!  |

another factor is that some of the people who used to make USM great are no longer here but in spirit...and still others are sick or don't have access to their pc...it takes USMers to make USM what it is. You are instrumental in making USM great or a complaint website.  |

You all are so funny :-) If there is one thing I have learned in the 53 years I have been on the earth, in the three mariages/divorces I went through, with the three children I raised as mostly a single parent, with my expectancies of life, is that a person has got to be FLEXIBLE TO CHANGE. If you won't bend when the wind blows, you may break a branch or two.  |

*singing* Paula is sooo smart!! I love this post of her's!! She made my day rock!!*happy dance solo* .....ok ok no one ever said I could write a good song lol. This is a great post Paula!! Different isn't always bad, sometimes people are just too stuck in wanting to have things their way. I know I get flack for saying this but I stick to it, "if you don't like it there's the door" I didn't like things in my life so I left. And yes one person does make a differance, if every person stived to be better then instead of one you have 30 or 50 and that is what makes the differance. Great post Paula!!  |
