Attention Elders!

Smorgy (Sharon) and I are culling through the Elder’s List and plan to eliminate those Elders who haven’t been active on the site during the past year.  We have put out PMs  to those whom we plan to remove from the list to give them a chance to pipe up and let their presence be known by showing some activity.  Unless we hear back, they will be deleted.  Nothing personal, just following the parameters set for Elderhood.
The other change is that the eligibility rules will be altered in that a member must have a presence on this site for a year, quit and active.  In other words someone who arrives  here with a year or more quit and is offering support will not become an Elder until they have been on the site a year.  Those who already have Elder status in that case will be grandfathered in as long as they meet the two other criteria - having been quit a year and providing some on-going support.

Member since MAY 2008. I quit smoking March 1, 2006. I smoked a pack and a half a day for about 35 years. What did it take to get me smoke free? Perseverance, a promise not to smoke, and a willingness to be uncomfortable for as long as it took to get me to where I am today. I am an Ex but I have not forgotten the initial difficult journey of this rite of passage. That's one of the things that's keeping me proudly smoke free. I don't want to ever have another Day 1 again. You too can achieve your goal of being finally free forever. Change your mind, change your habits, alter your focus, release the myths you hold about smoking. And above all - keep your sense of hewmer. DAY WON - NEVER ANOTHER DAY ONE. If you still want one - you're still vulnerable. Protect your quit!
