Is it just me, or is forum traffic (and overall posts) down considerably since WooHoo, Fleeted and others quit posting/were banned/got fed up?
This place used to be quite lively, but recently nothing very interesting has been posted.
The one bright spot (for me anyway) is Ed, who always keeps me entertained!
Just my $.02 worth.....
Yeh it seems more quiet lately. But i read the other day that theyre all unbanned so probably theyre just busy.Originally Posted by TennVol

I am waiting for Cloudboypty to publish his 30 page Saga About Panama.
It should be a bit hit.
Deception, bizarro and death!
All the other forums seem to be down in posting as well. I will also be disappearing for a couple of weeks to deal with medical issues and hubby basically only knows how to turn the computer on (LOL)!

Mary, did the blood donations pan out for you?
Nope.
I had some people I used last time and EVERYONE was turned away!! The blood bank is looking into why people with a rare type were turned away. I even had people that were here on vacation/house hunting turned away because they were over 55! The law in PANAMA is 65 and then if you have a letter from your doctor you can donate to age 70.
People that were originally turned away are going back to the hospital tomorrow and Friday.

Good luck Mary
Ok, people get busy or maybe just on vacation. Move on!
Question, does anyone know why those members were banned?
No i dont but theyre already unbanned so doesnt matter much i think.
Ok then, they were banned, their feelings hurt, they will get over it, I hope. Let's pick up the slack!
WRITE ON FELLOW MEMBERS. WE HAVE A GOOD THING GOING HERE. I LOVE THIS SITE......

Where did you learn that Mr. Woohoo, Fleeted etc were banned?

Forum traffic has generally been decreasing over the net - same with general website traffic. Whenever there is an economic downturn, even "free" sites experience reductions in traffic.

Fleeted was not banned; don't know if anyone else was. Fleeted has PMed me. He just got his fill.
I was responding to post #40 by panamaforum, stating some members were banned. I did not mention any names, just a question, why were some members banned! Sorry for stirring the pot.
it is water under the bridge , the worse prolbem has been taken care of . you are just 8 posts new here so it really does not much matter at this time .
Fleeted WAS banned and most likely will not bother posting even if he got unbanned.
I guess you mean fleeted and hey then something good came from the bans after all :P
Stupid iPad auto "corrected" fleeted to fledged.
I, for one, will miss fleeted's comments/observations.
...If you don't like what someone has to say, just don't read it & move on!
So! Being a newbie, my posts don't matter. No wonder the site is losing traffic!!!

dont mind posts like that of course they matter! Especially since the site is losing traffic

if this post was directed at what I said then you have taken it wrong . you joined late , the prolbem was very ugly , it has been fixed , and there is nobody going to bring up (on here) what was said . you say you dont want to stir the pot , yet you keep poking at it , let it go and enjoy the forum .
Ok.....
As desperate as medical institutions are at times for blood, I can't imagine turning away volunteer donations. Only in Panama. I would be turned away only once...
It would be interesting to know why they were banned and by whom. Does Don Winner control this site too?
The problem is that there are too many people here who are politically correct, who throw tantrums and brickbats if you say anything negative about their beloved adopted Mother Panama, and who, as a recently poster so aptly stated, "cannot handle the truth" and of course, once you offend one of these cry babies they will run to mommie (I mean to the Moderator) and complain and you will get banned. So why bother?
Besides, the saga is not about Panama but about my trials and tribulations with the Landlady From Hell who just happens to be Panamanian and lives in Panama although she just so happens, in one sordid individual package, to perfectly exemplify all of the negative character traits I have collectively encountered with Panamanians in Panama.
@fishfool
Your question is certainly legitimate. I wondered the same thing. Why were these contributors banned? I went to the FAQ to acquaint myself with the banning protocol and lo and behold there is nothing about it. It's a secret? It sounds very sinister and Soviet: a knock on the neighbor's door at night, a scream. The next morning the fearful neighbors cluster together in low whispers wondering where they went and why. Never to hear from them again...

i am starting to think we have some trolls .
I'll make sure to save the entire thread for you and repost it if removed. Also should you be banned I will send you a new account. Hope you will risk it!
