    I hadn't participated much on boquete.ning, and even less since the "new management." Today, though, I attempted to log in and post a message. Here was my response: 

    Hello Ms. Atwater
     
    At your request we terminated your membership. ( if we are in Error, we are sorry)   We would love to reinstate you, but not if are unhappy to be a part of Boquete Ning.  We need community members to help us move forward and apologize that we cannot please all with our changes and direction which is different from Mr. Zeltzer's style of management.  We do have good things coming and all we ask is for some patience.
     
    Please advise,
     
    Sincerely
     
    Ambreen
    Adminstrator

    No, I never requested to terminate my membership. I can only surmise that my membership was "terminated" because several days ago on ning I posted a generic dislike of the "new ning." (Don't remember what I said but I know it wasn't a nasty comment.)
     
    So, Ambreen, NO, I do not wish to reinstate my membership that I did not request to be terminated.  With this kind of censorship now on ning, I'm predicting it will soon be extinct.
     
    By the way, in doing a search, "Ambreen" is an Islamic/Arab girl's name, probably Indian.  Means sky or blue sky...one located has a background in web development, English as a second language.

    Thoughts about another forum

    in Idle Chatter / Personal Musings

    Posted · Edited by Admin_01
    This posting was split off of a different topic. Appreciate the pre-acknowledgment of the need to split off. Thnx.

    Thank you for your recommendation, Don Ray.

    Now I'd like to ask you a question. You often post links to Chiriqui Chatter whenever you have the opportunity. But sometime back on your Chiriqui Chatter site, within a context of another post I mentioned http://forums.delphiforums.com/panamaexpats . Your response was something like, "Oh, boy, just what we need...another forum." (I can't find the specific post because there's no way to do a search on your site except under specific topics. And by the way, the Delphi "forum" is more of a blog than a forum.)

    My response is that the more all of us can learn about Panama in general, and Chiriqui specifically for those of us who live here or want to live here, the better. 

    So far at http://forums.delphiforums.com/panamaexpats the information focuses on what is currently happening in Panama. The laws and political happenings definitely affect everyone who lives in Panama or wants to live in Panama, whether it be Chiriqui or any other part of Panama. There is no other forum/blog that I know of with that particular focus. All forums/blogs have their place. There are no advertisements on http://forums.delphiforums.com/panamaexpats and no one has anything to sell.

    Personally, I'm very glad to find another source of information like chiriqui.life. I notice that you have not criticized this forum/blog. I find it questionable that you'd criticize still another source of information, such as http://forums.delphiforums.com/panamaexpats 

    (Moderators: if this response is not in the proper place in this blog/forum, I apologize and please move it.)

    URL removed from ning

    in Miscellaneous Chiriquí Topics

    Posted

    I saw the URL for this forum on boquete.ning, but now as far as I can find, any reference to this forum has been deleted from ning. Too bad that ning has gone in that direction...anything that the new "mysterious owners" don't like is promptly removed.

    I wish much success for this new forum.
