I just received an email from an ex-member...a member who joined True Conservatives on Twitter but never used it for anything.  They didn't befriend any other member...they didn't post a blog, a comment, a picture, a song, a video & never shared a thing on twitter.  In fact it took them two months to even realize they were no longer a member. Yet even though they never used the opportunities available, they think they have lost something. So I will make my position very clear.  From the beginning, I created this ning account so that I could write long comments & then post the link to the comment on twitter.  I made the account completely open to everyone and all to join and to share.  Because the account is open, links can be shared with anyone on the internet. Then ning changed their terms of service and required all accounts become paying accounts.  However, I still believe that conservatives need a place to post long articles (blogs) for twitter and to that end, I allow others to join and take advantage of that opportunity.  However, when someone joins the group and doesn't use the opportunities I pay for, I feel they have no need and will cancel their membership without warning.

This NEW ning Network has some restrictions and rules that were not a part of the old network. One of the pesky things is that it will not allow blogs and possibly discussions to be posted without my approval. I do not like this...this is suppose to be a un-moderated network that you can use to post your blogs and then link to them on twitter however, I have repeatedly tried to change the settings and it just won't let me change it. I will try to check the network several times during the day to make sure no one is waiting on me. If you have an important blog that needs to be posted immediately, please send a DM or catch me on twitter.
