I hope that I've not made a mistake in doing so. With all the complaints of deleted posts and some real nasty needless, senceless, unfounded attacks on people, I created a new Yahoo group called Viviendocolombia.
Panama has a very popular yahoo group call Viviendo en Panama. It's developed into a real big site. I hope for the same with this site.
I've created many folders covering a bunch of subjects. I'm open for any and all reeasonable suggestions. This is my first group, so I'll be learning as I go. Persons wanting to pitch a gripe, vent a bit... will be allowed. Persons atacking others will be imediately banned. If you have a problem with someone, please take it private.

ColombianoGringo says on Mar 23, 2007, 10:33: I agree about unfounded attacks Not too long ago there was some guy who started a topic and included the following nasty, senseless attack on an entire country of people.

Lowell says on Mar 23, 2007, 11:12: vent After witnessing my neighbor with belt bruises and having my wife go nuts, I was venting. Unfounded? Daily I see actions of violence or near violence and aggressivness that just doesn't make sence. Things in my limited worldwide travels (Panama, Canada and Mexico)and living in the States, that I didn't see there. I did not direct my statement to any one person in particular. If you want to say something on my group that bothers you about Colombia or Colombians, go for it. If you want to slam me or other persons go and make your own group. Alfred E. Newman. "What. Me Worry?" 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

kat1 (Moderator) says on Mar 23, 2007, 11:21: lowell you do have too be careful and does not turn out like that colombianforum, where was full of trolls and everybody decent left. the attacks on some member from here were horrible so I think you will need lots of moderation, afterall is the internet and this place is full of nutters.

Lowell says on Mar 23, 2007, 12:15: moderator I'll try to visit the site a couple of times a day. The Panama site has its fair share of nuts too. Thanks for the well wishes. This is going to be an info site and I won't tolerate any other subjects. Even if I have to view every post before it goes out to the public. I'm now trying to learn the functions of creating files and moving info into them. Alfred E. Newman. "What. Me Worry?" 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

Lowell says on Mar 23, 2007, 12:22: cg correction In haste I didn't re-read my post before posting. It should have said "in the blood of many Colombians" That's what I was thinking. Please forgive my error. It's kind of hard to think straight when you in a fair ammount of pain and have a fried brain from an intense, loud and violent argument. Alfred E. Newman. "What.

ColombianoGringo says on Mar 23, 2007, 12:44: I really feel for you man Like I mentioned in that thread, my ex-wife had some anger management issues. It didn't happen very often, but when she would try to hit me, I wanted to belt her, but my Colombian upbringing made it very clear that men don't hit women.
