Perhaps all the sad events and bad news from out there (man-made, nature-made, etc) is turning all of us into a pyramid of APATHY?
Oh dear!
I certainly do hope that you are wrong about this.
Thanking you for this golden opportunity to be able to express my own feelings about the important issues which you have raised in your posting, as well as to make a minor correction.
We are ALL volunteers on Mystic Board.
We do NOT have one single paid staff member.
We do NOT have staff members.
What we have in place of staff is a team of helpers who are equals on this site, and whom each use their own unique gifts and skills in cooperation with each other to provide a friendly and safe environment, in which to help and interact with people who share our interests in the psychic and spiritual aspects of life.
Moderators, readers and administrators are only human beings like yourselves, with human feelings. Nobody likes to feel disrespected, abused or ignored. Treat and respect us exactly as you would be like to be treated and respected if our roles had been reversed, and we should get on fine.
When we all treat each other well, then all the time and energy that the helper team members freely donate on the forums really does not seem like work at all (hard or otherwise).
It is always my pleasure and privilege to be of service to our internet friends.
Together we MAKE and ARE Mystic Board!
Long live Mystic Board!
