T-birds Directive

[gp747]

i just want to say i love this site and all the members . this site is phenomenal for veterans whether filing claims or searching for info,there is someone who has the answer on this site.

these people are smart and what is so good about it you can find someone who has either been there or is going there.

i try to adhere to all the rules and consider it an honor to be a member. i really do not know what has been going on to cause t-bird to post his directive,but he does it for a reason and i am sure it is to keep the site on track for the purpose it was intended.

if i could have had access to this site when i came home from vietnam i would have won my sc disability back in 1967 and my life would have been a lot easier.

this site gave me the wisdom and encouragement to win my claim ,and if not for this site i would have failed i am sure.

skunk there was no internet in 1967 it really didn't catch on until the early 90s I remember when I had a computer that had 24 Ram and a 386 processor and used a phone line to connect to the AOL, slow but it was amazing back then, now I refuse to use a computer unless it has a cable connection, a phone modem is way to slow....and the computers on our desks are bigger than NASA used to send men to the moon....a lot of things would be different if we had the internet back in the 60s and 70s.....oh and by the way T Bird is a lady........rofl

oh wow! my apologies t-bird i did not know you were a lady! i still have as much respect for you as ever if not more. thank you for this wonderful site.

:)

i cant believe i have been on here for years and did not know t-bird was a lady,i feel like a dumb-butt.

this lady put together the best site in the country as far as i am concerned for veterans.

she is a determined lady and a veteran and I agree this is the best veteran site out here a lot of vets could help themselves by finding this place and taking the time to read the posts that pertain to their problems, there is a lot of experience here and support while they fight the system....

I thank Tbird and everyone who contributes to this site.

I have no problem with the rules since it's all you OTHER people and not me who cause problems

But seriously folks, MUCH LOVE! :D

I still use dialup.

I've been running searchs for hadit since the mid 90's & used dialup the whole time. Believe me I wish I could afford more than the 28k I get through dialup like peoplepc. It would make researching must faster.

Since I recieved a virus this last week, my main computer with 256 ram is down. Now i'm using my wifes laptop which is even slower.

It has to be tough riding herd on a bunch of hard headed, frustrated, totally diverse bunch of vets many of whom are no longer wrapped as tight as once was or are wound too tight... and the list goes on...

To hold all this together so there's a place for the likes of us, not only to get help through a dishonest and adversarial system, but to connect with others and to no we're not in the struggle against this giant alone...

It's all a testament not only too Tbird, but the folks she selects to ride herd on us.

THANKS! (yes, I was shouting, thank you very much. :D )

Well, I was thinking on my way to my VARO, that for a bunch of people in chronic pain, MDD, PTSD, and pissed off at the VA, and on and on, we get along pretty good considering I think. I'm not behind the scenes so I don't have a real grasp of the problems that forums go through, I do know that studies have been done on the life of forums, threads, etc. and how they often end, or how they grow and continue.

I like the format of hadit.com, it's easy to find information by subject, and looks professional. There are other good sights, but I do believe this is the best that I've found.

Part of the problem, people like Me don't express themselves very good in person, and come off like smart a----, or arrogant, and then on a forum it's really difficult to follow peoples line of thinking (talking about me here ) and things can get out of hand (not talking about me here :D) . Then there are those who intentionally want to cause problems protected behind a monitor :D ...those are the ones who need a as... whoopin' :D ....oh back to the topic.

Lots of great information here, the need for some of to connect and chat about non-VA issues is real, I don't connect with very many in 3D, I know I can't be the only one, so this is as good as it gets.

I appreciate hadit.com, thanks T-bird, and elders, moderators, etc. a lot of work has to go into hosting hadit.com, thanks! :P
