I hope that the start of 2012 has shown to be a blessing to everyone who is registered on our site's message boards.
As a registered member on our message boards, you may receive 3-4 emails per year. Your email account will not be slammed with a bunch of emails, nor will your email address ever be provided to any third party for any reason. I will only use them to periodically send out general information and invite both newcomers and old timers alike to come and join us in the process of sharing our recoveries with one another.
If you are registered on more than one of our boards, you will most likely receive the same number of duplicate emails from me, only because each board requires it's own independent registration and when I am sending out an email to everyone I have to send it to all registered members of each board separately.
Okay, now that I have that out of the way... I truly hope you will remain a registered and an active member on our boards and continue to be or become active in our chat rooms.
We need and want you to join us on our boards.
