    I'd love for more options to recycle electronics. We have a place where they take & refurbish electronics & other items such as VHS. If more did the trade-ins & had a cash incentive, more would be willing to do it.

    The old saying "You get what you pay for". It would help prevent just any ol' person from creating an account. I wish we had that on Proboards. It's great that it's free but there are cons to it. One, people Wash Rinse Repeat forums. They create one, get bored, delete it, create another. If they had to pay for it, they wouldn't be so quick to delete. Plus I feel if you pay for something, even though you still have to be bound by their rules, you the consumer has more freedom. Proboards we are limited to what we can say & do. I feel even social media has that same mentality. If social media moved to paid, I may look into joining them once again if I knew there'd be better security & privacy with that subscription. X Premium is $8-$11/month or $84-$115/year. I think an average of $10/month or $100/year would be good.

    Maybe have in parentheses the definition next to the word. An analogy perhaps. What is helpful for me learning is to go straight to books for kids lol Or those For Dummies books. Maybe you can use some of those ideas if you'd like.

    Thank you for letting me know! Can you set the X amount of posts or is that on Xenforo? I too have seen it on other forums; just never know what it was called.
  5. ZandraJoi
    Well I must admit, sometimes I have blinders on & go right to the posts to reply to topics lol BUT I have noticed in this Chit Chat Thread, don't know what it's called & don't see it on every thread.

    Do you join a friend’s to be nice? See one advertised on another forum & check it out? Do you focus on who the owner is (how popular versus one just starting out) or do you focus more on the niche, that it’s an active forum? I prefer being on a medium size forum. Not too small where nobody posts hardly but not too big where you get lost in the shuffle. While I have joined a friend’s to be nice, I have only stayed if it’s relevant to my own life. i.e. if they are just about Tech, it may be months before I go back as Tech is not a niche I’m familiar with.

    Thank you for adding to the list. I've created a topic now. Here's hoping to see more 🙂

    Forum that focuses on environmental, holistic (whole person) issues in a secular setting. It covers eco-friendly living, alternative natural health, mental health, & pets. There is a general section for Question of the Day, Entertainment because everybody is on their own path holistically & sometimes we just need those light-hearted discussions. Let us Learn & Grow together 🙂 https://holisticallysecular.proboards.com/

    That's how they can get you & save their butts too. "Nobody" reads all those TOS on each website they visit. A lot of it is filler hiding the true rules. They certainly make it a Catch 22. We need guidelines, we need terms yet I feel we need a balance. IF people were just decent human beings, we wouldn't need to worry about stealing & lying.
  10. ZandraJoi
    It's the "We'll worry about it later" mindset. & then cross your fingers it doesn't happen to you. People have gotten so lazy in today's society. They don't want to do the things for added security yet cry when they've been hacked & even ask, How could this happen to me! I'd love to see UA have more educational resources for all of us. I for one like learning.
  11. ZandraJoi
    Facebook is like a search engine then. Anything goes. If we post a post on a forum & somebody takes it, that's stealing. Even if it's not plagiarism. Their guidelines make it so confusing. They don't "own" your posts yet they can do whatever they want with them. That's a contradiction. I never knew that about FB. Anybody know if other social media platforms are the same?
  12. ZandraJoi
    People really should not take the internet for granted. Too many people's accounts, on Facebook, emails, etc can be hacked into quite easily. Now, why wouldn't Facebook be held accountable for not having better security measures? I know it's up to the individual to be smart but FB is huge; they should have firewalls up where nothing can get through. They have FB Jail for certain keywords. So I'd think they'd make this more of a priority over somebody disagreeing with another.
  13. ZandraJoi
    I hope they get hit bigtime. I don't like when companies sign members up unknowingly. That is really "stealing" as they are taking your money without your permission. Stealing is still a crime. They are not exempt.
  14. ZandraJoi
    People have always stolen things that didn't belong to them. Now with our morals & inflation, people are upping the risk.

    What the people who are for Nuclear fail to realize is that they will be in the crossfire as well. The whole Earth will be a wasteland if enough people retaliate. & you know they will. They'll have an attitude of, Well he fired first so we have to fire back. It will be neverending! Living in an underground bunker. How long do they actually think they can survive down there? & if the Earth is that devastated, it won't be temporary housing either. Those who make the weapons would be held accountable as well if those weapons are lost, stolen, etc.

    Holistic, Organic, Secular & Tolerant aka HOST focuses on environmental, holistic (whole person) issues in a secular setting.

    For free, I will go with Proboards. It'd give a 5 star rating if they let us migrate over to another platform 😛 For paid, Xenforo for me as well. I've been on several of them & while they are the pricier platforms, you do get what you pay for & I've seen a lot of quality.

    Being an Admin especially on my own forum is what I like the best. I also loved being the Package Team Leader. Was a good way to browse forums I wouldn't have joined normally.
  19. ZandraJoi
    We are getting hotter temps up here in MI. My kind of weather 🙂 We have some last Fall chores to complete. Packing away the hoses, etc. What about you?
  20. ZandraJoi
    A nuclear strike won't just affect that area. Even if we don't "feel" it here, everything is connected in this world. The USA needs better authority. Our military was one of honor & respect. Evoked healthy fear. Now, we are not taken seriously. & I don't worry just about Putin. Other leaders have been a bit "off their rocker" as well. One is bad enough but if they align with each other & the rest of the world is divided over such trivial things, I don't have much hope for the human race.
  21. ZandraJoi
    I'm not sure how underpaid they are but I would think they'd get paid more than the average worker out there. Anybody think they have a leg to stand on? Or are they just complaining to complain?
  22. ZandraJoi
    I figured @Kyngwould be replying to this thread too lol I wouldn't be surprised if there were similar "life" beings on other planets. Some of the chemicals on Earth are also found on other planets. & just because dimethyl sulfide is produced from organisms here on Earth, who knows, that may be what they breathe, eat on other planets.
  23. ZandraJoi
    Be a marine biologist would be awesome! Always been my dream but real life tends to throw curveballs at dreams lol
  24. ZandraJoi
    I did! Getting some of the "Fall" chores done. Not ready for cold weather lol What chores do you find you have to do for this time of year? Here's to doing what you need to do for yourself 🙂
  25. ZandraJoi
    That is the issue with humans nowadays. They get lazier & lazier with all this tech. Thinking tech will save them & protect them. They don't realize that those behind the tech can monitor us.
