What was the article about exactly? I missed it...

Golly Peg, I never saw any of your articles
that got flagged. Don't know how I could
be of any help to you my dear friend,sorry.

I don't think yu can see the article right now. it was called 'for eveyone who has followed what's happening or something like that. I feel horrible.

oh hon, I know you didn't mean anything about it, an explanation to gather should suffice.

I just went in and read it Peg. The only thing I can think of is maybe the soliciting for money through your Paypal account. I don't know if that's against the rules or not. Did Gather flag you?

I'm sorry this happened. The article looked great to me. Maybe it will all get straightened out soon. Good luck.

Peggy, I suppose in future, just send emails to people who are asking for your information. Don't put it in an article.

For the current situation, write to Gather again and ask them what you need to do. Other than that, I don't know. Sorry.

You know, I saw that article and wondered if it was acceptable here. I can tell you that most sites won't let you post things like that. Maybe they just don't want it to become something that gets out of hand. I guess maybe if they let you then others will do it and it could become a problem. I don't know but that's what I'm guessing.

Please don't feel embarrassed though. If individuals send you a private message wanting to know how to help then can't you answer each message and do it privately? After all they asked. Maybe that's the way to do it.

I was wondering if they have food pantries near you. That could help you with getting some food and a little bit of scraps for the dogs. I don't know what to say about the horses though.

Try to hang in there PeggyAnn.

Don't worry so much about getting flagged by the community - I have some hate mongers marking my posts about the middle east as hate speech because they're trying to hide my posts from the reading public.

It says "flagged by the community" so apparently someone was offended by something, makes sense the paypal part might be it. Seems a shame they couldn't have messaged you privately and said "psst, I don't think they want us to do that here." instead.

But hey, PeggyAnn, I bet you aren't really "anybody" on this site until you have your own private little flaggers who follow you around flagging everything for any reason or for no reason, at all. At least, I get that impression reading the "Elitists" whose wit entertains me. ;)

Oh thank you guys for the support. Hello B. I haven't met you before. I did write a letter to gather. And with that, that is all I can do. I told them that I would take out the offending message, but I did explain that I was not soliciting as in scamming or what not. That some folks had offered to help some for the horses. And I thought that would be the best way. I know better now. However I do feel violated by people who need to get their jollies off by being tattle tales. Actually there is a piece in there about being a flagger too often. lol. Again, thank you all.

I have been using my resources right along. As well as the food bank, food card etc. I did finally get soc. sec. after I became sick, but it took three years of no income and that is why all is so low. I chose to believe it is getting better. And I did get a bit of help today. You know who you are. I thank you deeply. I am getting bedding for the horses along with a nutrient my white mare needs for her lameness. Bless you. Oh, and my farrier treated the mare for free.

You have even touched me Peg and I'm a tough man to touch. Roll with the punches, Woman. They can't beat you. (JH)

Remember that God, Spirit, Divine Mind, or Infinite Intelligence (whatever you want to call it) is your true source of all. Trust that source to provide and be willing to accept it, no matter what channel it comes from. But yes, solicitation on Gather is against the rules. Peggy Ann, keep your heart and mind open. Ideas will come. Give of yourself in every way that you can. As part of the law of circulation and the natural universal flow, you will see it come back to you. Believe and receive!

God will find a way to handle this. He is our guide and protector.

PeggyAnn, I didn't see the article that got flagged but from the comments and your description, it sounds like a TOS violation may have happened. You can click on the Terms of Service at the bottom of this page and see if maybe you accidentally violated one of them. Sometimes we get involved in our passion and don't realize we have done a bad. It's human. Gather will send you an e-mail explaining the problem and ask you to fix the article and then repost it after it has been fixed. I'm so sorry you had this experience, but this is how we learn.
Don't let it get you down.

Well hello Jason H. I don't remember seeing you before. Thank you for the bolstering up talk. I need that. Judi J. You are a mainstay. and Carla your site last night gave me a wonderful lift. Thank you lisa, and Nana, Thank you for the info.

I agree with Lera

Just wanted you to know Peg what a CLASS ACT you are, Boo.

I am feeling mighty upright right now.

I hope it all works out for you!

Goodness, Peggy, all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. I love you anyway. : }
Hope you'll join my group at : Gatherers Gallery
We are a non-judgemental group.

PeggyAnn, I believe I read the article that was taken off, and I am sorry about that. I am catching up with some of my reading tonight and going through your things. So sorry for any problems you are having and sending a prayer that you will get all the help from somewhere , perhaps from an angel watching over you. I think everyone has one.

Was it the article about Josie's beginnings?

what can i add?
if this is about not being able to feed the animals
i really think horses must be expensive to keep, then it is best to get someone to take over, i really do.
i thought that if i ever find myself unable to pay for a vet bill, though i made a deal with the vet in the past, i would seriousy reconsider keeping pets.
it is harsh but reality is that they depend on us, and i try not to cut corners.
my dog gets expensive food but it is a priority, if i ever reach the stage and i hope i dont , i will think what is best for the animal. i say it because i think sometimes how much money animals cost and how important they are. someone once questioned my decision to get a dog. i would get another and another however since my budget is limited, i limit myself.
i know it does not sound nice but does it make sense? i am not sure what it is about but if it is about you struggeling to support the animals, perhaps it is time to reconsider it for their sake and yours. for the time being.
dont bother apologizing, worry about yourself and take care of yourself and your dependents the best way you can. if this is against the law to ask for money, find some organizations, church , animals place,something, dont give up! much strength , and sorry if i sound like i am preaching, i know we can all be in a dire situation , without an exception , so keep your head high

sorry if this comment seemed full of contradictions,
i meant keep trying but realize that if things get tough you need to find plan B, rehome the pets , till you are better
