I too have a lot of issues with this new site. I feel the design and functionality are really awful. The old board was much better. you could string replies to a message and follow the thoughts of several on the same topic. I've also lost several longer posts that I put a lot of thought into only to have them disappear into the ether. I have however just chocked this up to one of those things that I have no power to change. It is best if you do not let these things fester within you as anger, disappointment and resent are the defining characteristics which set alcoholics and addicts apart from normal people.
Bill W tells us in the big book:
"It is clear that a life which includes deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness. To the precise extent that we permit these, do we squander the hours that might have been worth while. But with the alcoholic, whose only hope is the maintenance of a spiritual experience, this business of resentment is finitely grave. For when harboring such feelings we shut ourselves off from the sunlight of the spirit. If we were to live, we had to be free of anger. The grouch and the brainstorm were not for us. They may be the dubious luxury of normal men, but for us these things are poison."
God wants us to join with his vision of the world - but the only way to do this is to let go of fear, anger, resentment and grab hold of faith love and hope.
Peace and God Bless
