Have you ever regretted joining the SKMB?

[Walter Oobleck]

I found this message board back in January of 2007 to say thank you to the man who wrote the stories I enjoyed...had gotten three novels from my wife for Christmas, '06: From A Buick 8, Bag of Bones, and Hearts in Atlantis.

After reading...an afterword, I think it was, in Bag of Bones, paperback copy, after reading the final sentence or two of that afterword by King, something about an up-coming (at the time) Hearts in Atlantis, and to tell him what you think about it. Sounded like an open invitation and with a website listed someone on the jacket, I found my way here.

There's probably been a time or two (you think?) when I regretted joining the board...and staying on after the initial post or two...the regret surfacing much later. That's enough for now. How about you? Have you ever regretted joining the SKMB?

Never.

 

[Shasta]

No. No matter how mad I get, I have met some of the best people I have ever known here.

There are two things in my life I have ever regretted:
- Not jumping off a high dive board when I had the chance
- Having my thyroid removed


Joining the SKMB? Never.

 

[cat in a bag]

Nope. Not for one second. I am pretty isolated, as a stay at home mom. I wouldn't change being a stay at home mom for anything, but finding the SKMB has saved my sanity, I truly believe. I have made wonderful friends here. Spending time here has always been pure joy for me.

 

[Spideyman]

Never, no, absolutely never. This MB is family. Lifetime friendship have been formed. This is part of my daily routine.

 

[Autumn Gust]

I've never regretted joining. I've gotten riled at some of the political posts on occasion but I try to steer clear of discussing religion or politics on here for the most part and so I don't post my brilliant rebuttals. What I do feel at times is guilt! Sometimes I have a lot of stuff to do but I can't tear myself away from reading everyone's posts.

 

[Grandpa]

I'm too new to have had time to form regrets, but I've never regretted joining any forum, even ones that I came to not enjoy later. Because no one's forcing me to read or to post. If I don't like it what I read, I can ignore it. I don't have to say anything, nor do I have to stay if I'm not having fun.

If there is regret, it's the time taken out of my life to post. But I enjoy it, and the time is mine to control as I will.

 

[MadamMack]

No.

Nope, except for perhaps some late night posts..

Have way too much fun here to regret it.

 

[HollyGolightly]

No, but there are times I think my house might be cleaner if I didn't spend my sparse down time here. No one in this house would appreciate that but me.

 

[SharonC]

Never! I have formed some wonderful friendships here, and you guys and gals have helped me through a very tough year. I don't have many friends physically close, and the love and support I got here was literally lifesaving.

 

[kingricefan]

No, although there was a time or two that I wished I could have pulled my foot out of my mouth after posting something stupid.

 

[FlakeNoir]

No.

Stupid foot tastes yummy though...maybe like raspberry jelly?

It's great when you mix it with belly button lint!

 

[Agincourt Concierge]

I have met some of the most wonderful people here on this board .... this board is 2nd family .... met the love of my life here .... no regrets ...

 

[MadamMack]

I like studying people and I've been able to do that here.

I've experienced great times here and I've made a lot of friends. I was one of the first Beta Testers.

I've also been called a bitch and even cussed out . . . I've seen some wars happen across these Boards and I've seen many members leave and return over and over again . . .sometimes with different names.

I'm cautious of how I post and I skip the drive-by-newsflash-politics-religion-crime-threads . . .hell, I can get that anywhere.

I love Stephen King and I am a member of this board and will be until I am no more.
