You been lots of help to many here. You should stay.

By leaving you are admitting you were wrong in the other thread. ;)

So stay and keep giving advice to those who want to hear it and not to those who dont.

LoTo id like to say ill miss you, and dont think you should quit.

I read the other thread and unless im missing something from the removed comments, i read it as a miscommunication. Itnd to me like didnt sound to me like you were telling that person to do something wrong as much as just asking what they were doing in there visa process.

I for one sure hope that the discussions here dont become these fighting matches, i look at VJ as a group of people going through the same thing together and we can all help each other get through this long and tedious process.

Just my 2cents

I think all this waiting is causing people to behave in a weird way. All Loto has to say 'what-eVVerr' and chill and continue to visit and stay active on this site. Asking the admin to remove him from the site is a bit extreme. And if he really is that upset - then just stop logging in, why put in a whole new post asking to be removed. Hate to lose anyone, we all need each other's support to get thru nightmare. I am optimistic he will join again with a new id :)

I feel we're too hard on each other... Those of us who attempt to offer our thoughts and sometimes, we offer bad advise.. Let's keep this in perspective.. We aren't lawyers, but keep in mind that even lawyers offer bad and even illegal advise with the intention of lining thier pocket books and not so much to help others.. The majority of people on this forum have only sincere intentions to help.. We often are jumped on by other VJ'rs but nevertheless, the intentions are sincere..

I disagree with the way this whole issue was handled by katheryn, her response may have been a little too harsh. It is good the moderators point out when bad advice is given.. It may have been better handled a diferent way..

Dont Forget, This is a Free Forum that all can participate.. Unless VJ want's to restrict everyone from offering advice unless we meet some sort of prequalification, we just have to expect that some responses will be bad advise... However, people can and do benefit from VJ in a HUGE way.. I won't be the only once who'll say this, but for me, there is no possible way I would have gotten as far as I've gotten without the help of all of you.. I am extremely grateful for this forum... But I do realize, sometimes, I might get some bad information, so I need to review other resources as well.. I beleive my situation is typical across most others on this forum...

Loto, Please take this for what its worth, I appreciate you starting this thread, because, I think some have lost perspective, so this thread is a opportunity to discuss that..

I consider everyone here as a friend, that doesn't mean that I dont have a life, it's just is a testiment of the good people I've met though various discussions and the motives each of us have here are simply to help each other thought this process..

Thanks Kathryn41!

Can you please remove my account from visajourney, as I feel it is not worth being here?

Appreciate your help to remove me from here.

Good luck to all VJ members here for your immigration process!

Thanks

Loto

Stay!! I think you definitely add value to this site, I don't post a lot or comment too much because I am still learning and have not even decided on a Visa Journey yet, but I have DEFINITELY learned a lot from your posts!:) And we are are responsible for whatever actions we take. To learn from advice and do a little research ourselves.. so whether anyone is wrong or right , it is still up to us to use it wisely!

Thanks , hope you stay here :)

Loto, you bring SO much to the table here at VJ. Helpful info, instead of the abundant sarcasm and condescension of the 40K poster club. Please reconsider and STAY.

:star:

Good to know it's not just me who has them ID'd

Loto,

Do not give in... everyone makes mistakes and I believe that it wasn't an "Mistake" per say but rather miscommunication.... We all feel frustrated and others more so... The US government is not easy to deal with to say the least and we all need each other here on this site for one thing or another! I read the posts daily and would be lost w/o this site. Sometimes we just need to sit back and rethink what we are about to do and I hope that you do just this... Please don't leave... you are needed here and if you don't believe this. then go back and read ALL of the posts that been made that state just that!

Again, I really hope that you reconsider and are on this site for a LONG time to come! :dance:
