Do you think the members we lost on this site, to go to another site, are happy where they are, or will they eventually come back here? Walter came back and I'm glad!

I notice that a few members that went to AnswerMug are back and I'm glad that they are. That site went to hell very fast and turned a lot of users off, me included.

I've Solved is VERY slow and there are members there that I don't wish to associate with.
Hopefully  more users will return to Blurtit.

I think kind of like in "real" life (not internet life I should say! Lol!) You always seem to go back to where your roots are. Unless you were too totally abused I should say. So consider all of us blurtit parents waiting for our blurtit children to find their way back home! 💕😊

No site is perfect---they all wax and wane. 

I think that tossing Rooster from the site was just some sort of an inappropriate and petty, childish reaction.

And one of the apparently more popular members who left recently had a rather mean streak in her that resulted in at least one well liked member exiting because she spread some false rumors.

We are less than we could be without some who have left, but this is still a good site with a lot of decent members.

Simple drama---not everyone is what they seem; some have ulterior motives; some are passive-aggressive.

Not totally unlike a soap opera---miss a week or two and plot lines develop and are resolved; and then all is back to normal.

Thanks for explaining, it seems really odd to me that some people would go through all this drama for basically no good reason.

@Fortis, exactly right. It doesn't make any sense. However, there are some that actually thrive on the gossip / drama and enjoying stirring the pot to get an adverse reaction. Things are always not as they seem to be.

Most that left are returning. Answermug is just plain disgusting now.  The language is horrible and the political stuff hasn't slowed at all. I hope where ever they land they will be happy.  Oh Zack returned .  I was glad to see him back.

I'm back and enjoy being in touch with my old friends.

Things got so bad here through December and January that I thought the site had run its course so, although I didn't close my account, I posted a farewell message.

I DID close my account on answerMug. I won't bother to explain why but Tiger Two and Walter have covered it pretty well.

Things just wasn't the same without you my friend! Your wonky sense of humor coupled with your heart felt answers make you a wonderfully unique family member. 😊 I am very glad you are back as well.

Members are people. Like everybody they look to find what suits them, where they feel comfy, appreciated etc. Go about looking to find what excite them than stay and be mediocre.
