Trouble posting one to one via this Pca group

7 Replies

Hi all, a couple of ppl have tried to have one to one discussions with me about Pca treatment and when I have tried to answer their queries, and then click send. But a red notice comes up to say "something went wrong" and the typing that took me an hour or two to reply properly to their concerns is all lost, and I cannot go back to a previous window where my composed text remains.

I really don't think the operation of this group is reliable enough to want to continue answering questions 1 : 1 away from the daily public postings that are reliable.

I do have a website turneraudio.com.au and you can see my own email address on Index page and it has so far been super reliable for many years.

Many answers to questions about Pca are at my page "Patrick's Concerns" listed on my index page, complete with Psa graph since 2008 and piles of descriptions of what happened since then.

Just remember that my history of dealing with Pca and my lifestyle choices and my opinions may be different to many other men.

I do wish you all the very best, Patrick Turner.

When you say "one to one" do you mean the chat feature of this forum? If so you might contact Darryl, he is the administrator of this forum.

Direct messages are indeed working. Massively long messages are best broken into paragraphs and sent as you write them. Our direct message system is as reliable as any other

OK, so that explains why I messages I tried to send disappeared. My paragraphs can be very long, and I like to compose big answers for ppl who tell me they like my efforts, and I've always been like this in life, and had no idea what I tried to send was too large to send.

Before emails and the age of the PC I used to send long letters to ppl maybe 20 pages, and most loved the attention. But my ex-wife hated it, just yet another thing about me to hate, because she found it impossible to ever respond to anyone deeply. I was the odd man out, the communicator. Most just ain't.

For me, one to one via personal emails that can be like good long letters and I never have been able to join in at Twatter or FarceBook. The world around us can't be explained so easily.

The regular daily postings are fine for me, I don't mind being public about the inner workings of my mind, but a few others do mind, so they are reticent.

This group IS GOOD.

10 years ago there were a number of other groups around that allowed ppl with Pca to talk publicly to each other, and they were good, but most folded when the men administering these got too old to keep out the viruses and malware, so all that discussion and wisdom of the past just vanished.

Same thing happened to me once while chatting. Pink screen of death and my message disappeared. You are not alone.

I dunno if I am good or not, and I should not presume to know.

But I cannot now be led anywhere by Temptation; she avoids me everywhere I go, which isn't very far.

What's the least said sentence in any language?

"Jus lie down 'er luvvy, it won't cost yer anyfink"

But when I go to a hospital, that's just what they say, and frankly, our Auntie Medicare is such a darling, and once in a public hospital she never asks you for a cent.

"Is there anything else you want Mr Turner?" a nice nurse will ask. And I don't know where to start, so I don't, so I say "I'm OK right now , and may Nature bestow on you a very good life..."

If I am really crook, I might say "I've got a bit of a little bother, do ya think you can help a little?"

I love all the good ppl I meet. I don't know if I love me, he's a hard man to understand, so I was told by a few shielas who tried. We can't know it all, we can't have it all, OK, Duzzen Madder, right?
