It would be great to have a 'Success Stories' forum as well -- When I needed a pick-me-up, it was so great to visit that section.

If you need to reach me about something more private, please contact me via private message.
Reaching out to me privately may not result in a quick response. Posting in the Visitor's Corner ensures other staff members will see your post as well and may be able to help you more quickly.
Also, as far as I know, none of the staff here are psychics, so if you are reporting an issue, and want help, then please take the time to be as detailed as possible. The more effort you put into describing the problem, the more we'll put into solving it.
Not sure if anyone suggested this yet...but is there away a challenge specific category could be set up. That way all challenges are contained in a single thread. Thanks in advance and sorry it this is a repeat suggestion.
Thank you, Greebo & Lex, for taking up this task and standing in the gap for those of us who still wish to have a MTMMO.com-like community forum! Do you have any plans to make it mobile friendly?

Also, Frugal Living has 1 or 2 topics that need sticking too.
Thanks.

As I'm understanding it, if I'm reading in the middle of a post, I can comment before reaching the end by quoting someone. My other option is to get to the end and then use the reply button or the quick respond button.
I'm technologically enough challenged that both of those options are challenging me. ::-[
Using the 'reply' box, I can't figure out how to see the other posts like if I want to use someone's name. I know some of the posts are listed below the reply box, but not all of them appear to be listed.
Using 'quick reply' I don't get the bells and whistles--the emoticons, font size, color change, etc.
And then when I've changed my mind about posting, I'm confused about how to get back to where I was...I've been hitting the back browser button, but is there a cancel button?
Could each person's comment box have a reply button in addition to the quote button? Sometimes I might want to reply right now but not quote.
Could the reply box be a pop up box? One that you can grab and move around so you can see the person's comment that you're responding to?
Sometimes you just have to do what feels right with your money instead of what is "optimal". Too many focus on optimal outcomes, when good enough is good enough. (Thanks to Retired @ 50)
I'm afraid that level of customization isn't something I'm going to be able to tackle at this time. New software comes with a learning curve, for me as well. I know it's frustrating but I think after a while you'll figure out the best way to use the software, and as time goes on I'll be better at figuring out what we can change.
Meanwhile, be reassured you're not the only one going through these growing pains!

Can we have an Emergency Preparedness Sub-form? Lots of us love this topic.
