Communicating outside the website is not a good idea. I learned the hard way, let just leave it at that. LOL

I Hopeful, 
I understand your frustration, you feel like you have what to share and you can help people but you are being stifled and held back, it could very very upsetting! 
However, I want to answer to one point that you have made about frum media advertising smartphone usage and social media. YOU. ARE. RIGHT! 
This is a crime! Lots of people are complaining loudly about this, and there is now a movement to have every magazine and newspaper get a hecsher so that i know which ones i can take into my house. Some good magazines will not put any advertisements if they add social media icons. 
We cant  think social media is dangerous and yet accept it as a normal way of doing business. 
Please dont get cynical and put down all 'frum' people like we are just a bunch of hypocrites.

I think you may be conflating posts from 2 different people.

I am not putting down ANYONE. I never said "frum" people are hypocrites. Far from it! I have nothing but love and respect for them. I hate the word "frum".. It has a negative connotation to it. Of course, there are good and bad in any community but I am not in anyway painting the entire religious community with such a broad brush. Please accept my apology , If I made a comment that insinuated that.

I 100% agree that it is a problem to denounce Social Media, while at the same time advertising it. It is a problem that is not easy to solve! I am glad that there are people working on it and hopefully come up with an acceptable answer.

I also was not going to reply, but felt that there is always a benefit in a dialogue. I challenge you to look into my past posts and see where I brought "negative vibes" to this forum. I can save you some time, as you will not find any.

If "negative vibes" is asking question about what I am reading on here, then maybe I am guilty of it. As far as reconsidering posting here, that will be my decision, not yours. I will not comment on your insult of being closed minded. You are entitled to your opinion, even when I disagree. Thank you for forwarding my point.

I simply felt that at the very least I should have been given the respect of a reply to the posting and telling me what rule I broke or why they felt it was no fit for publication. Maybe I am wrong and am more then willing to admit and accept it.

I know that I am older than many of the people on here and living in a non-religious area. I am not as easily swayed and influenced as some younger people without the years of living in this world may be. I like to ask questions, I like to discuss differing viewpoints, and in this current trouble world that is neck deep in tribalism, I know that I am in the minority.

It looks like my words were understood in a harsh manner more than I actually intended. I apologise. The last thing I would want to do is to hurt another Jews feelings. The negative vibes I was referring too was portraying GYE as a "boxed in" organisation. You are entitled to your opinion and I fully respect that. I also wasn't trying to tell you to stop posting, rather I was saying that if you feel GYE is too closed minded for you then I hope you find your salvation somewhere else, as for me GYE is my only salvation.

Frum is just a Yiddish word. No connotations. It's people who have negative feelings.

I also apologize, as my reply was not written in the most thoughtful manner. I am very emotional about this issue (as most of us here on this site). This has been a problem for me for decades and GYE is the first serious organization that I found that is attacking this problem head-on and I want, or better yet, NEED it to work for me. I just want to make it better, that is all.. I am sure the moderators have their hands full with a bunch of guys dealing with this issue all at the same time.

It is an added challenge to have a problem that I so heavily caused by the internet, and we are using that same internet to try to beat it!

A little more transparency is all that I am asking for. I would liked to be called out when I screw-up so I can learn from my mistakes, not just booted-out and ignored without even a reason or cause.

Thanks again for the reply! Be well!
