I personally love being a part of the West Texas family; everyone here..including those with strong and vocal opinions....have the best of intentions towards others and are respectful (Lol, and hopefully the flames that engulf the Dallas or other E. TX boards don't reach us anytime soon
) Sure, sometimes things my be taken wrong as it is too easy to take things literal and not see the intent of the message to not be offensive to those reading it.
For the most part, I think everyone here shares feedback in order to benefit others or just to put their .02 because we can here.
However, very recently a new member thought it to be acceptable to be openly rude (Ok, I speak for myself on that statement because the response was made to me) on a couple of threads and when advice was given her way, she seemed to lash out and not be open to input being given.
Here it goes...West Texas is a HUGE area with a handful of actual WEST TEXAS based providers. So, when the a new provider comes on board, the gents are excited to see new talent hit our area (YES, VERY LARGE AREA TO COVER) and everyone here will make you feel at home and welcome you with open arms, big woody's and lots of smiles
. If you're not sure about anything on the board, JohnnyB is a pm away or contact one of us (providers) and we're happy to help. With that said, although you will find everyone welcoming, you will also see that people have a low tolerance for blatant rudeness and that is a quick and sure way to alienate other board members and possible $$.
This isn't school but it is an adult forum (as in grown ups) with sctructure and rules

and even though breaking rules and being aggressive (if wanted) behind closed doors can be fun, on the open forum...it's just a consideration for others kind of thing especially when their intent is just to be helpful and guide you on the path to LOTS of FUN and success!!
Enough of that....WELCOME ALL NEWBIES!!!!
