I view this place as one of support to people trying to cope with depression & other mental problems. As the owner of the site, I am asking you to please let us know what is going on, so as to allow us to 'process' it & deal with it. Right now I'm experiencing this situation as a BIG addition to the other stressors in my life. I do NOT believe that being a member of PB is intended to add to our stresses. It's certainly been a mainstay of support & caring to me.

Why he is not addressing such a serious issue; losing 2 experienced and excellent deputies over what sounds like a rule change, is beyond me.
I guess he has more important things to take care of. I feel that this board is probably not his #1 priority.
Hopefully we can get SOME sort of answer soon. It's killing me to lose these deputies without any understanding of the issues at hand.
Dr. Bob, could you PLEASE, PLEASE address this TODAY?
Thank you very much for your courtesy,
